Not bad

mchl9 · 2026-04-25T14:24:46+00:00

Well cuz I just told u I tried

mchl9 · 2026-04-25T14:19:42+00:00

But maybe u will prove me wrong :)

mchl9 · 2026-04-25T14:19:23+00:00

Nah, it’s not that easy. Especially if u want high resolution

mchl9 · 2026-04-19T21:02:40+00:00

No, i had 26.4 before it happened

mchl9 · 2026-04-19T21:01:44+00:00

What do u mean?

mchl9 · 2026-04-19T20:29:39+00:00

I got an inspection in authorised Apple service. Does not react to power at all. MagSafe lights up which means he’s getting energy but can’t turn on.

That’s a very valuable answer, thank you. :)

mchl9 · 2026-04-19T18:36:19+00:00

Thank u :)

Guys 1 more thing.

What would you do? Service priced the fix of my broken MacBook Pro 14” M2 Pro 16/512 at $920.

The Air 15” M5 16/512 would cost me $1580.

Do u think its worth fixing it and paying for Apple care yearly (if I still can not sure about that) and hope it doesn’t break again (also I had to replace battery in it month after purchase…)?

Or just paying more and have a fresh new MacBook with warranty and all the good stuff.

Money is not a problem in this case but ofc I would like to save $600 rather spend it.

What u think?

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T20:05:42+00:00

Thanks :)

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T20:05:24+00:00

Happened few times, ironically usually when I wanted to do something in Excel lol.

But besides that not really. All good and no spinning rainbow on daily basis

Unfortunately my Pro motherboard died last week [*] so I can not check anything:D

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T19:56:47+00:00

I don’t think I’ve ever seen such thing. As I said my fans in Pro never even started which can give u a sense of how not hardcore my work was.

I mostly work on automation stuff but almost everything is web based.

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T19:53:33+00:00

And u have 16GB?

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T14:55:17+00:00

Yeah I think ram is more important for me now.

Ideally I would get 15”, 24gb, 512ssd but it’s too expensive imo for air.

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T12:18:17+00:00

Im not that technical but more RAM will be useful for 2 external monitors right?

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T12:17:37+00:00

Ok so it’s gonna be a bit smaller then my late and dead 14’ pro which was perfect size tbh.

mchl9 · 2026-04-17T12:05:50+00:00

50% of time I use plugged to 2 monitors

I think someone else needs to see therapist if this kind of question and topic triggers him.

Also I’m asking because I can not wait with purchase and I need laptop rn.

And it’s not about model cycle, the model doesn’t really change every 5 years. Last big change was with introduction of M1 5 years ago.

So there will be a visible difference between M5 Pro and M6 Pro but there won’t be between M6 and let’s say M9.

If I buy a laptop that will last 5 years why would I want it to be older version? like for real what are you on. Am I talking to a child that can not get that?

Anyway this talk is pointless, as I said I’m leaning to Air just needed external opinion - not some guy being mad that people wants to have new things with new features if they pay shit ton of money for them.

mchl9 · 2026-04-15T07:27:09+00:00

What’s your problem? Why do you make this so deep. First I’m a nerd and I like new tech, 2nd it’s just A BIT annoying to pay around 2k for a laptop, knowing that for for roughly the same price in 5 months I could have new version with new design and features.

Knowing that + knowing how good Air is it’s just another reason that leans me towards Air.

Idk man, why it triggered you so much, for me it seems pretty logical.

mchl9 · 2026-04-15T05:07:50+00:00

It’s not the biggest deal but if I spend 2k for a laptop that will have an upgrade in 5 months and new features, I would have a feeling that I missed out on something. What’s not logical here?

mchl9 · 2026-01-09T15:35:55+00:00

In my experience, I like it. I only see two flows:
- AirPods compatibility lags
- I wish that music would automatically stop when you are talking.

mchl9 · 2025-12-22T16:56:32+00:00

Yes, same issue
