Dum... moreIconic or not, in case of Macbook's, since there is 95% of the time a top bar displayed on MacOS, and the display is tall enough for the notch to be irrelevant for any widescreen content too, making it a non-issue. It "would have been better", if there were slim bezels all the way, but it is simply not possible, currently, whilst keeping top located camera, ambient sensor and microphones. Underdisplay camera/sensors will soon resolve this, but for now it's great either way.

Arman, 17 Jan 2023Seriously what can it do ?
You cant use it for 3d model an... moreThis is a question that I have asked myself since they moved over to ARM.
I had a Hackintosh for a while to tinker around, and it got boring. I never found an use case for me where it could do something that Windows couldn't (even if Windows needed more workarounds).
When they were on Intel, you could argue that you had all worlds in one place (Windows, Mac OS, Linux). But now, it's only Mac OS and that's it. There's Parallels, but that one runs Windows 11 ARM, not x64 Windows, which brings in another can of worms.
So, as it stands today, I could only drop money for the Mini (and that's without getting rid of my Windows Tower)

Dumb af, isn't the point of cut outs to have pretty thin bezels? Then that laptop has enough space to not have a notch, yet they still added one anyways because its a Apple iconic design

Hopefully they will be fully compatible with normal monitors like Eizo and NEC

Gggg, 17 Jan 2023No. Don't buy a Mac for gaming ...Seriously what can it do ?
You cant use it for 3d model and rendering for games cause you need to test it
Adobe products and other also run well on windows
Why should someone buy a product with this price that cant even run a simple hobby game
And if you dont get compatibility problems run the same stuff that a lower price pc tower or a gaming laptops with this insane price can run??
For example the kmplayer never runs anymore for near 5 years on mac os due to compatibility issues!

The M2 probably isn't such a miracle, if they keep Mac Pro on Intel...

As always, only the Mini is worth the price.
Honestly, the Mini is their best product. A no nonsense computer thats small and can be a companion for your Windows Tower without problems

It annoys me.
Apple never gets specific when it comes to comparisons with their technology for a REASON.
For example, Apple THEMSELVES will always say something like, “40% faster” or “3x faster” but never show direct scores.
🙄 stop dodging, Apple.
Sometimes I genuinely think they’re taking advantage of the average, non-techie consumer. But I think that’s the point of their products, meaning to be simple enough that nobody who uses their products would know the specs.
Especially the average person.

Their photoshop performance was nothing to write home about on M1 Pro. So even with +40% it will still be not enough to catch up with the latest AMD or Intel offerings.
