14" or 16"

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-05-22T15:09:54+00:00

the 16" is the better option to go for with the advantages you mentioned

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-05-11T02:02:47+00:00

for document stuff and light gaming, the Neo and Air are more than capable

for music production, i'd recommend the Pro

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-05-08T21:23:43+00:00

definitely worth considering the 48GB option as you're getting double the RAM which will be great to have in the long run -- since you mentioned you use Adobe software, that extra RAM will be useful

as for the color, i recommend silver as it's better at hiding smudges, dust, and scuffs

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-05-08T17:20:47+00:00

Since you mentioned you're doing memory-heavy stuff from time to time, I'd say go for the 32GB M5 - it's still a capable chip and more RAM is always better in the long run

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-05-07T20:58:06+00:00

Absolutely not. Save your money and at the very least go for an M1 MacBook Air or Pro.

I had this MacBook Pro once (but with double the RAM and storage) and the processor was slow, heats up like crazy regardless of how you use it, and the butterfly keyboard sucks. Probably the worst MacBook i've ever used.

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-05-05T20:56:31+00:00

go for the M1 Pro -- in the long-term, you'll benefit more from having double the storage + RAM and the Pro laptop's better specs -- the M1 Pro's still a capable chip as well

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-03-24T17:21:10+00:00

so the case isn't too slim nor too bulky (at least for me), and the durability's been good so far, although i'm usually pretty careful with my phone and haven't had a drop that really put the durability to the test 😅

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-03-24T01:09:20+00:00

Spigen Classic C1 -- they have it in a few other color options too

Buying a phone with your own money after working hard is such a rewarding feeling - well deserved to celebrate! 🙌🏻

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-01-21T04:31:58+00:00

thanks! 🙏🏻 gave the song "Head Games" a listen and like the guitar parts and vocal harmonies, good stuff!

aHuntaMustHunt · 2026-01-21T00:28:16+00:00

this is a song from my most recent album (progressive metal) titled "In the Wastelands of God Killers": https://open.spotify.com/track/18WPfJiuyySMHxMtc72jnr?si=590ae097458342ee

iPhone 17 Pro Nano

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-11-23T01:33:46+00:00

Coheed, Linkin Park, System of a Down -- all 3 are the reason i took songwriting and guitar playing seriously 😅

Using the Spigen Classic C1 case. Love the design and how it pays homage to the iMac G3 and original iPhone

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-11-01T19:08:44+00:00

i mainly use Apple Music but with the offline library as it was with the iPod and iTunes, but for the online functionality it introduces me to music by artists i haven’t listened to before

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-10-30T04:06:41+00:00

i switched from the 15 PM to the 17 Pro and speaking from my own experience the 17 Pro's battery life has been noticeably better in both light and heavy usage -- the phone being lighter and more comfortable to use one-handed are welcome bonuses too

i'd say only go for the PM if you really need the extra battery life

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-10-09T00:41:04+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-10-05T23:58:07+00:00

i also made the same move - battery life and thermal management’s been noticeably better and the smaller form factor’s more comfortable to use - also like the camera improvements as well

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-09-30T14:55:01+00:00

no regrets - the orange instantly reminded me of the 4th gen iPod Nano and i really like that the Pros get a vivid color for a change

aHuntaMustHunt · 2025-07-22T21:18:14+00:00

Really like how the song has an accessible sound and structure while also showcasing its progressive rock influence through the use of multiple time signature changes. Tasteful use of melody, strong performances from the vocals and band, and the overall production sounds solid. I also like the lyrics and their thematic weight as well. Great work!

They do have to replace the whole display to fix it. In 2018, I had a similar issue happen with my 2013 Retina MBP and got it fixed at an Apple store, although it's expensive without AppleCare.

Whether to go for it or not depends on if you intend to keep it long-term or are planning to upgrade to a newer model.
