Apple's 2021 redesign qhia ib tug sleeker, huv si MacBook tsim uas yog txawm ntau nyob rau hauv txoj kab nrog Apple lub penchant rau iconic, minimalist khoom. Qhov tsis muaj qhov hloov pauv no yeej zoo siab txais tos vim qhov hloov kho MacBook Pro khaws txhua yam kuv nyiam, suav nrog thinner bezels nyob ib ncig ntawm qhov kev daws teeb meem siab dua (3,456-by-2,234-pixel) Liquid Retina XDR zaub. Ib me ntsis flatter dua li cov qauv tsim ua ntej, lub tshuab ua dua tshiab-aluminium chassis ntawm MacBook Pro tseem ua rau lub plhaub ruaj khov thiab zoo nkauj unibody uas pab txo koj cov kev cuam tshuam ib puag ncig.

Tsis tas li qhov nqa tawm los ntawm 2021 yog Apple's tshiab Magic Keyboard, nrog cov yuam sij square-tiled uas ua kom zoo txaus ntaus ntawv. Yog tias koj tau siv Mac hauv ob peb xyoos dhau los (lossis txawm tias lub desktop version ntawm Magic Keyboard), ces koj twb paub tias nws zoo li cas. Apple cov yuam sij ntiav ua ke ua ke cov duab qis qis ntawm daim nyias nyias dome hloov nrog txiab-hloov cov cuab yeej kho kom ruaj khov, txais tos rov qab los rau daim ntawv tom qab npauj npaim hloov debacle ntawm ob peb xyoos rov qab.

Cov keyboard qhov tob txhais tau hais tias tus yuam sij tus kheej tsis muab ntau yam kev mus ncig, tab sis qhov tsis muaj zog downstroke yog txuam nrog ib qho khoom nyem rau hauv qab, muab cov lus qhia tactile uas ua rau txhua tus keystroke xav tias txawv, thiab txo qhov ib nrab-presses thiab kev sib tsoo uas ua rau. ntxhov siab typos. Ntxiv rau, tsuas muaj qhov zoo saib rau cov yuam sij no xwb. Hloov ntawm qhov liab qab aluminium puag ncig uas tau pom ntawm MacBook Cua lossis 13-nti MacBook Pro, cov qauv Pro loj dua siv cov qauv xim dub-rau-dub uas zoo li ntau subdued thiab pab lub teeb pom kev tsis zoo no ci dua thaum nws teeb rau cov yuam sij. .

Qhov txiaj ntsig tiag tiag rau tus qauv tsim no yog tias Apple hloov rov qab mus rau cov keyboard kom zoo nrog cov yuam sij ua haujlwm puv, txav deb ntawm Touch Bar micro-duab nws tseem siv ntawm 13-nti MacBook Pro. Cov keyboard no tseem suav nrog lub khawm fais fab nrog lub built-in Touch ID sensor, cia koj kos npe rau hauv koj lub tshuab tsis muaj hassle ntawm lo lus zais lossis tus lej PIN.

Koom nrog cov keyboard ntawd yog lub trackpad loj heev, muab chaw txaus rau koj rau txhua yam ntawm koj swiping, nias, thiab taw tes. Thiab vim tias nws siv Apple's Force Touch thev naus laus zis, qhov saum npoo teb nrog kev tawm tswv yim zoo rau kev tswj hwm ntau dua thiab ntau qib, siab-raws li cov ntawv qhia zaub mov. Ib tug ntxaum nias qhib lub zog tshiab, thaum sib dua kais thiab kov ua hauj lwm zoo rau tag nrho koj cov txheej txheem navigation. Lub ncoo yog qhov tseeb, thiab cov lus tawm tswv yim yog nkig, ua rau nws yog ib qho zoo tshaj plaws touchpads peb tau pom ntawm txhua lub tshuab.

Ua raws li 2021 redesign txhais tau hais tias tus tshiab 16-nti MacBook Pro kuj khaws qee yam uas kuv tsis nyiam, xws li qhov cuam tshuam lub webcam notch uas yog tsev MacBook Pro's 1080p FaceTime webcam. Ntxiv rau qhov ntawd tom qab.

Qhov hnyav 4.8 phaus, 16-nti laptop tsis hnyav, thiab qhov no yog txawm tias nws qhov loj me me ntawm 0.66 los ntawm 14.01 los ntawm 9.77 ntiv tes. Peb cov qauv M2 Max-nruab nrab kuj tuaj nrog 140-watt USB Type-C fais fab adapter thiab USB-C-to-MagSafe cable, uas nqa tag nrho qhov hnyav rau ze li 5 phaus. Txawm li cas los xij, peb yuav zam txim rau nws, muab lub siab dav 16-nti npo thiab tus nqi ntawm lub zog nyoos ntim rau hauv lub laptop no. Feem ntau lub tshuab Windows hauv chav kawm ua haujlwm no hnyav 7 phaus lossis ntau dua, yog li peb yuav txuag peb cov lus tsis txaus siab rau cov teeb meem tiag tiag - ntawm qhov uas muaj tsawg.

Lub Liquid Retina XDR zaub: Saib, Tab sis Tsis txhob kov

Ua tib zoo saib ntawm Apple lub 16.2-nti npo, muaj npe li Liquid Retina XDR, nws tsuas yog ib qho zoo tshaj plaws nyob ib puag ncig. Ua los ntawm 120Hz oxide-TFT vaj huam sib luag backlit nrog ntau txhiab tus mini LEDs, cov zaub yog qhov zoo nkauj tiag tiag. Lub vijtsam refresh-tus nqi kuj tseem siv ProMotion, Apple cov lus teb rau kev hloov kho thev naus laus zis, xws li AMD FreeSync lossis Nvidia G-Sync. Mini LED rhuav tshem cov teeb pom kev zoo rau ntau pua thaj chaw nyob tom qab lub vijtsam, muab rau koj zoo heev tswj kev sib tw uas sib tw OLED feem ntau. Cov xim zoo kawg nkaus ci thiab vibrant, tsis muaj ib qho kev ntxuav koj tau txais ntawm cov zaub uas tsuas muaj lub teeb pom kev zoo dua.

Cov thev naus laus zis no tso cai rau qhov sib txawv ntawm qhov sib txawv thiab qhov sib sib zog nqus, nplua nuj xim dub uas feem ntau cuam tshuam nrog OLED vaj huam sib luag. Thaum saib cov ntsiab lus feem ntau ntawm mini LED-rov qab zaub, qhov zoo yog qhov xav tsis thoob. Tab sis, txhua zaus, koj yuav pom ib yam dab tsi uas qhia txog qhov teeb meem ntawm ib qho screen backlit, qhov twg ib lossis ob thaj chaw dimming yuav sib tshooj ntawm qhov ci ntsa iab ntawm daim duab thiab ib qho tsaus nti ntawm daim duab, thiab nws tsis tas li. ua ib txoj hauj lwm txaus siab ntawm kev sib txawv ntawm ob, tawm hauv qhov chaw ci ntsa iab thaum nws tsis yog. Mini LED txo qhov teeb meem no ntau dua piv rau cov kev xaiv tsawg dua qhov dimming, tab sis qhov ci ntsa iab dua qee zaus ua rau qhov teeb meem tawm zoo li tus ntiv tes xoo.

Txawm li cas los xij, muaj ob qhov teeb meem tiag tiag nrog cov zaub uas peb tsis xav kom Apple hloov txhua lub sijhawm soon. Thawj twb tau hais lawm, tus thais, uas yog ib qho kev txiav tawm nyob rau sab saum toj bezel uas cuam tshuam cov kab ntawv qhia zaub mov thiab lwm yam nyob rau sab saum toj ntawm lub vijtsam txhawm rau tso lub koob yees duab FaceTime tom qab lub iav tsom iav yam tsis tau ua rau sab saum toj bezel chunkier.

Ib qho khoom nqa los ntawm iPhone, qhov ntsuas siab zoo li yog ib feem ntawm Apple tus qauv tsim ID tam sim no - tab sis kuv yuav tsum hais tias, Kuv yeej tsis tau siv rau nws. Qhov zoo tshaj plaws, kuv tsis nco qab tias nws nyob ntawd. Tab sis qhov ntawd tsuas yog muaj tseeb rau bezel-mounted webcams, thiab lawv tsis cuam tshuam cov ntsiab lus ntawm lub vijtsam. Lub notch nws tus kheej yog tej zaum tuav li elegantly li nws yuav ua tau, tab sis qhov tseeb hais tias nws tseem muaj kab mob kuv.

Ib qho teeb meem me me yog dab tsi tsis yog muaj: kov tswj. Kov cov ntxaij vab tshaus tau dhau los ua qhov tseem ceeb ntawm Windows laptops, txhawb nqa ib feem los ntawm kev ua tiav loj ntawm kev sib cuam tshuam ntawm iPhone thiab iPad. Txawm hais tias qhov no, Apple tseem tsis tau coj cov tswv yim kov rau Mac, ib sab ntawm qhov tsis nyiam Touch Bar ntawm 13-nti MacBook Pro. Yog tias koj tab tom nrhiav lub laptop nrog lub vijtsam kov zoo, koj yuav tsis pom nws ntawm Apple Store.

Kev sib txuas: Ua raws li qhov ua haujlwm

Apple ua rau peb xav tsis thoob hauv 2021 thaum nws hloov pauv qhov chaw xaiv chaw nres nkoj ntawm 14- thiab 16-nti MacBook Pros, rov nthuav qhia HDMI cov zis thiab SD daim npav qhov. Tom qab ob peb tus qauv Mac uas tau ua txhaum tag nrho rau Thunderbolt / USB-C rau txhua qhov kev sib txuas, nws yog qhov zoo siab tos txais thiab cov lus teb tsis txaus siab rau cov neeg siv tsis txaus siab. Cov chaw nres nkoj nyob ib puag ncig ntawm MacBook Pro tshiab - txav tau zoo.

Muab hais tias Apple tshem tawm lub mloog pob ntseg los ntawm nws cov iPhones ob peb xyoos dhau los (thiab txawm hu nws tus kheej ua siab tawv ua li ntawd), peb ib txwm zoo siab pom lub mloog pob ntseg txo qis nyob ib puag ncig ntawm MacBook. Kev xaiv chaw nres nkoj yuav nyob zoo ib yam, tab sis kev sib txuas wireless yuav siv sij hawm mus rau hauv cov qauv no, ncaws tawm mus rau Wi-Fi 6E rau qhov zoo tshaj plaws hauv chav kawm wireless networking, thiab Bluetooth 5.3, rau qhov zoo tshaj plaws accessory thiab peripheral kev twb kev txuas zoo tsis tau.

Txais tos rau macOS Ventura

Xaiv Apple txhais tau tias xaiv macOS ntxiv rau cov khoom siv slick Apple. Thaum qhov no tau tshaj tawm ib txhiab xav thiab tshaj tawm pitting Windows thiab Mac cov neeg siv tawm tsam ib leeg (thiab peb tus kheej kev sib cav tsis tu ncua), kuv zoo siab hais tias tsis muaj qhov poob tiag hauv qhov kev tawm tsam ntawd. Txij li thaum qhov tshwm sim ntawm Windows 11, Windows thiab macOS zoo ib yam li yav dhau los, sib koom ntau dua li ob peb yam ntxwv. Tsis tas li ntawd, ob qho tib si yog cov paub tab heev, kev ua haujlwm zoo heev.

Ib qho txiaj ntsig ntawm kev loj hlob - zoo, kev loj hlob ntxiv rau kev lag luam sib koom - yog qhov tseem ceeb software tsim lawv cov khoom lag luam rau ob qho tib si Windows thiab macOS hnub no. Tag nrho cov npe loj nyob ntawm no, suav nrog Microsoft's Office suite, tag nrho Adobe Creative Cloud, thiab ntau ntxiv. Ntxiv rau qhov ntawd, Apple muaj nws tus kheej hauv tsev macOS apps uas tau txhim kho ntau xyoo, los ntawm Safari browser mus rau GarageBand. Txhua yam koj xav ua hauv lub khoos phis tawj, koj tuaj yeem ua ntawm Mac ib yam li txhua lub tshuab Windows, txawm hais tias koj tseem yuav tau mus yos hav zoov kom raug software.

Qhov tseeb version ntawm Apple lub operating system, Mac OS Ventura, zoo li yog txhua yam koj xav tau los ua. Kuv mam li tso qhov seem rau lwm tus kws tshuaj xyuas uas tsim nyog los khawb rau hauv qhov tshwj xeeb (nias qhov txuas rau peb kev tshuaj xyuas), tab sis hauv kuv lub sijhawm tshuaj xyuas lub tshuab, kuv tau ntsib ob peb yam teeb meem, ib yam li muaj ib lossis ob qhov kev sim tshwj xeeb uas tsis tau nqa los ntawm Windows.

Kuaj MacBook Pro 16-Inch: Fais fab rau M2 Max

Txhawm rau kom tau txais qhov ntsuas tseeb ntawm qhov twg MacBook Pro 16-nti sawv ntawm nws cov phooj ywg, peb yuav tsum saib ob lub tshuab Apple thiab Windows. Hauv lub ntiaj teb Apple, peb tab tom saib cov qauv dhau los, 2021 MacBook Pro 16-nti nrog M1 Max, kom pom tias qhov kev ua tau zoo li cas tau ua nrog kev txav mus rau M2 Max. Tsis tas li ntawd suav nrog: MacBook Air tsis ntev los no thiab 13-nti MacBook Pro (ob qho tib si nrog M2 nti), nrog rau qee qhov kev sib piv dhau mus rau lub tsev tsim hluav taws xob tam sim no, Mac Studio, uas los hauv M1 Max thiab M1 Ultra variants.

Saib ntawm lwm lub npe, peb tig mus rau qee qhov kev nyiam los ntawm peb cov khoom ntawm cov lag luam zoo tshaj plaws laptops thiab cov chaw ua haujlwm laptops, nrog rau cov kev xaiv zoo tshaj plaws MacBook. Nrog ntau tus neeg siv thiab cov kws tshaj lij siv MacBook Pro rau ntau txoj haujlwm, peb tuaj yeem tau txais nws tawm tsam lwm tus thawj coj hauv pawg. Tab sis kev siv kev lag luam yog qhov dav heev, thiab lub zog muaj zog heev, uas peb tab tom ua raws li cov pawg tseem ceeb los nrhiav peb cov neeg sib tw sab saum toj.

Cov no suav nrog Asus Vivobook Pro 16X OLED, Dell XPS 15 OLED (9520) thiab Dell XPS 17 (9720), thiab lub zog HP ZBook Studio G8 mobile workstation.

Tab sis raws li koj tuaj yeem pom hauv peb qhov kev sib piv ntawm cov qauv sib piv, tsis muaj ib yam dab tsi uas muaj ib pob tiav uas Apple's MacBook Pro ua, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog nyob rau hauv beast-hom configuration peb tau txais los tshuaj xyuas.

Lub caveat, thaum twg peb piv Macs rau lub qhov rais tshuab, yog hais tias lub Mac vs. PC faib yog tseem tiag tiag, nrog nuances thiab quirks uas ua rau cross-platform xeem tsis yooj yim. Tsis yog txhua yam uas peb sim cov tshuab Windows nrog yuav ua haujlwm ntawm Macs, thiab rov ua dua. Txawm li cas los xij, txawm tias muaj kev xaiv txo qis, tseem muaj ntau los sib piv, los ntawm cov software tsim khoom mus rau cov duab kos thiab txawm tias qhov chaw ua haujlwm.

Productivity Tests

Nyob rau hauv cov ntaub ntawv no, peb pib nrog peb HandBrake 1.4 video transcoding xeem, lub sij hawm nws yuav siv sij hawm ntev npaum li cas los hloov tus qauv 4K clip rau hauv ib tug me me 1080p version. Nws yog qhov nqa hnyav rau qee lub tshuab, tab sis qhov zoo tshaj plaws media-editing laptops yuav tsum ua haujlwm luv luv ntawm nws.

Tom qab ntawd peb txav mus rau Cinebench R23, uas ntsuas ntau cov tub ntxhais thiab ntau txoj xov zoo ua haujlwm nrog cov xwm txheej nyuaj ua rau Maxon's Cinema 4D cav. Rau kev ntsuas kev tsim tau yooj yim dua, peb saib Primate Labs 'Geekbench Pro, uas simulates nrov apps xws li los ntawm PDF rendering thiab kev paub hais lus rau kev kawm tshuab.

Thaum kawg, peb siv Adobe Photoshop khiav hauv Rosetta 2, uas los nrog lub hnub qub-Adobe muaj ib txwm version ntawm Photoshop ua ib feem ntawm nws Creative Cloud. apps, tab sis peb qhov kev xeem txuas ntxiv, ua los ntawm Puget Systems(Qhib lub qhov rais tshiab), tsuas yog muaj siv Rosetta 2. Yog li, hauv qhov piv txwv no, nws tsawg dua ntawm kev sim duab-editing-speed, thiab ntau qhov kev ntsuas ntawm qhov kev ua tau zoo ntawm lub tshuab rau kev thov. apps uas yuav tsum tau emulation. Txawm hais tias qhov caveat, Mac kev ua tau zoo tuav tau zoo kawg nkaus tiv thaiv cov tshuab Windows sab saum toj.

Hauv HandBrake, qhov kev ua tau zoo heev, nrog rau M2 Max txiav lub sijhawm hloov pauv hauv ib nrab piv rau cov tshuab xws li Dell XPS 17 (9720), thiab shaving tawm ob peb feeb piv rau ob qho tib si sib tw Windows laptops thiab tsawg-kub Apple xaiv. Qhov tseeb, tib lub tshuab uas tuaj yeem ua tiav qhov kev xeem sai dua yog Apple Mac Studio, lub desktop me me uas nyob hauv tsev rau Apple cov kev ua tau zoo tshaj plaws tam sim no, M1 Ultra.

Raws li rau Cinebench, M2 Max-powered MacBook Pro 16 tshaj tawm ze li ntawm 15,000 cov ntsiab lus, ntaus tawm ntawm 12,000-point nruab nrab thiab rocketing yav dhau los lub zog tsis tshua muaj zog MacBook Air thiab MacBook Pro 13, uas ob leeg siv cov nkag-theem M2 nti. Cov qauv qub ntawd tau rov ua dua hauv Geekbench, qhov twg M2 Max thawb lub MacBook Pro 16-Inch kom zoo nkauj thib ob-zoo tshaj plaws hauv cov npe ntawm cov tshuab muaj zog heev. Hauv Photoshop, MacBook Pro 16-Inch ua tiav ua ntej ntawm Mac Studio! (Qhov no yuav yog vim qhov hloov kho M2 platform txhim kho emulation kev ua tau zoo.) Yog tias koj xav tau lub zog nyoos, tab sis tsis tuaj yeem dais rau ntawm lub desktop ruaj khov zoo li Mac Studio, qhov no yog lub tshuab kom tau txais.

Graphics thiab Gaming Tests

Armed nrog 38 GPU cores hauv peb cov qauv kev sim, peb kuj xav kom 16-nti MacBook Pro muab tso rau hauv cov khoom qhia hauv cov duab thiab cov kev xeem ua si. Rau qhov kev ntsuam xyuas cov duab tshwj xeeb ntawm Apple, peb siv 3DMark's Wild Life Extreme, khiav hauv Unlimited hom. Tsis zoo li peb qhov kev xeem 3DMark ib txwm, Wild Life khiav ib txwm nyob ntawm Apple Silicon, cia peb ntsuas cov duab ua tau zoo ntawm cov tshuab Mac sib txawv. Qhov qhab nia siab dua, qhov ua tau zoo ntawm tag nrho cov duab zoo.

Rau kev sim hla-platform, peb siv cov qauv ntawm peb tus qauv GFXBench xeem, ntawm no khiav ntawm Apple's Hlau duab API. Nws muaj kev ntxhov siab-kuaj ob qhov kev ua haujlwm qis, zoo li texturing, thiab qib siab, kev ua si zoo li cov duab rendering. Peb khiav ob qhov kev xeem, Aztec Ruins (1440p), uas tso siab rau ntawm OpenGL daim ntawv thov programming interface (API), thiab Tsheb Chase (1080p), uas siv cov khoom siv tessellation. Peb sau cov txiaj ntsig hauv ib qho thib ob (fps); cov lej siab dua yog qhov zoo dua.

Thaum kawg, hauv Rise of the Tomb Raider, peb qhov kev xeem "tseeb" nkaus xwb, peb tau txais kev nkag siab ntawm qhov system qhov tseeb AAA-gaming peev xwm. Yog lawm, nws yog ib qho kev ua si qub, tab sis nws yog ib qho ntawm ob peb hauv Steam tsev qiv ntawv uas yuav ob leeg khiav ntawm Mac thiab muaj cov cuab yeej tsim ua ke. Peb sau qhov nruab nrab fps ntawm qhov chaw sib txawv. Cov lej siab dua yog qhov zoo dua.

Nws yog nyob rau hauv Wild Life Extreme cov txiaj ntsig uas peb tau pom qhov zoo tshaj plaws ntawm qhov chaw M2 Max zaum hauv Apple Silicon tsev neeg, ua kom pom cov duab zoo heev. Qhov twg M2-based MacBook Pro 13-nti tau qhab nia 6,800 cov ntsiab lus, M2 Max-powered Pro tau qhab nia ntau dua 25,000. Qhov kev sib tw ua tau zoo tshaj txhua yam uas peb pom ua haujlwm ntawm M1 Max processor dhau los, thiab nws los nyob rau hauv thib ob rau tsuas yog M1 Ultra. Yog lawm, qhov no yog qhov kawg-kawg, feem ntau-cores version ntawm M2 Max, tab sis nws yog ib qho kev dhia loj heev rau hauv cov duab hluav taws xob hauv ib tiam processor, thiab nws ua pov thawj tias Apple lub chip tsim pab pawg tsis messing ib puag ncig.

Peb cov txiaj ntsig GFXBench pom zoo li Apple M2 Max dominance, raws li MacBook Pro 16-Inch kua muag los ntawm ob qho tib si 1080p Car Chase thiab qhov xav tau ntau dua 1440p Aztec Ruins xeem scenarios.

Lawm, nyob rau hauv Rise of the Tomb Raider, M2 Max dominates txhua yam, xa cov kev ua si zoo tshaj plaws uas peb tau pom hauv Mac rau hnub tim. Peb mam li khawb rau hauv qhov kev ua si ntawm ntau yam ntxiv hauv kev sim yav tom ntej, tab sis rau lub hom phiaj ntawm qhov kev tshuaj xyuas no, nws yog qhov tseeb tias kev ua si ntawm Mac yog tam sim no muaj peev xwm tiag tiag, ntxiv rau kev tsim tawm xov xwm peb twb paub tias nws tuaj yeem ua tau. Zoo nyob rau hauv ntau tshaj 150 thav duab ib ob (fps) ntawm 1,920 los ntawm 1,200 thiab cov ntsiab lus siab, thiab nrog cov ntsiab lus qis qis topping 200fps? Qhov no yog ib cheeb tsam ntawm kev ua si-laptop.

Workstation Performance

Mus rau ib kauj ruam dhau qhov kev ua si ib txwm muaj lossis kev tshaj tawm xov xwm kev xeem, peb kuj tau rho tawm cov khoom siv hluav taws xob sib xyaw kom pom tias MacBook Pro 16-Inch tuaj yeem daws qhov tseeb 3D rendering. Siv qhov qhib-qhov 3D suite, peb sau lub sijhawm nws siv rau nws qhov kev ua hauv Cycles path tracer los ua ob qhov xwm txheej ntawm BMW tsheb, ib qho siv lub system CPU, thiab lwm qhov tso siab rau GPU.

Nws yog qhov kev sim uas peb khaws cia rau lub tshuab muaj zog tshaj plaws, thiab ntawm no MacBook Pro 16-Inch pem teb peb. Cov txiaj ntsig tau hais rau lawv tus kheej, tab sis nws tsim nyog taw qhia tias MacBook Pro no muab qee qhov kev ua tau zoo tshaj plaws ntawm qhov kev sim no peb tau pom los ntawm lub laptop.

Roj teeb thiab Zaub Tests

Txhua lub hwj chim hauv ntiaj teb tsis txhais hais tias ntau npaum li cas hauv lub laptop yog tias koj tsis tuaj yeem nqa nws mus qhov twg, tab sis kev txav mus los feem ntau yog txi kom xa cov hwj chim uas peb tau pom saum toj no. Txawm li cas los xij, Apple thov qee qhov kev ua tau zoo ntawm lub zog rau qhov tshiab tshaj plaws ntawm M2 chips, cog lus ntau npaum li 22 teev ntawm roj teeb lub neej. Pom tseeb, peb tau mus sim cov lus thov no, tab sis kuv xav paub ntau ntxiv txog seb lub kaw lus yuav sib npaug li cas lub zog xav tau ntawm cov leeg nqaij CPU thiab GPU nrog cov txiaj ntsig xav tau rau kev mus ntev ntev.

Peb sim lub laptops lub roj teeb lub neej los ntawm kev ua si hauv zos khaws cia 720p video file (qhov qhib-qhov Blender movie Kua muag ntawm hlau(Qhib lub qhov rais tshiab)) nrog zaub brightness ntawm 50% thiab lub ntim ntawm 100%. Peb xyuas kom meej tias lub roj teeb tau them tag nrho ua ntej kev sim, nrog Wi-Fi thiab keyboard backlighting tua.

Peb kuj siv Datacolor SpyderX Cov Neeg Tseem Ceeb saib xyuas qhov ntsuas ntsuas ntsuas thiab software ntsuas lub khoos phis tawj lub vijtsam xim xim - pes tsawg feem pua ​​​​ntawm sRGB, Adobe RGB, thiab DCI-P3 xim gamuts lossis palettes cov zaub tuaj yeem pom - thiab nws 50% thiab qhov siab tshaj plaws nyob rau hauv nits (candelas ib square meter).

Muab Apple cov lus thov ntawm roj teeb lub neej, peb xav tias yuav pom MacBook Pro 16-nti ntev ntev thiab tom qab ntawd qee qhov. (Tom qab tag nrho, lub laptop loj tshaj plaws hauv Mac lineup kuj yog ib lub roj teeb loj tshaj plaws.) Ntxiv rau, Apple cov khoom siv tau zoo dua qub tau ua rau lub neej ntev ntev txij li M1 nti tuaj txog. Tab sis, peb tsis tau npaj rau qhov no: Hauv peb qhov kev sim ua yeeb yaj kiab, MacBook Pro 16-Inch tau ua qhov xav tsis thoob 26 teev thiab 51 feeb - yog ib qho txiaj ntsig ntev tshaj plaws uas peb tau pom ntawm lub laptop luv ntawm cov qauv zoo li thawj zaug. M1 MacBook Pro.

Qhov tseeb, MacBook Pro 16-Inch outlass feem ntau lub laptops nrog lub roj teeb zoo tshaj plaws los ntawm teev. Pom zoo, kev siv hluav taws xob ntau dua, xws li kev tshaj tawm xov xwm lossis kev ua duab kos duab, yuav txo tus lej ntawd. Tab sis rau saib cov yeeb yaj duab lossis web browsing? Qhov ntawd yog lub roj teeb txaus kom tau txais koj mus txog peb hnub so tsis muaj lub charger.

Lub Liquid Retina XDR zaub yog qhov zoo sib xws, siv nws cov mini LED backlight rau qhov zoo sib xws thiab ci ntsa iab. Tab sis qhov zoo tshaj plaws yog cov xim zoo. Hauv peb qhov kev sim, qhov screen, ahem, "notched" zoo meej 100% cov qhab nia hauv kev pab them nqi ntawm ob qho tib si sRGB thiab DCI-P3 xim qhov chaw, thiab tsis muaj qhov tsis lees paub tias nws yog ib qho zoo tshaj plaws-saib qhia peb tau pom, txawm tias thaum piv. rau hwm OLED panels siv rau saum-kawg Windows tshuab.

Kev txiav txim: Ntshiab, hwm hwj chim

Peb tau sim thiab tshuaj xyuas lub khoos phis tawj tau ntev, thiab nws tsis tshua muaj ib tus neeg ua rau peb txaus siab. Qhov kev hloov tshiab kawg no ntawm 16-nti MacBook Pro nrog M2 Max tsuas yog muaj txhua yam, los ntawm kev tsim kho kom zoo nkauj thiab nplua nuj feature teeb tsa rau lub roj teeb uas xav tsis thoob thiab muaj kev ua tau zoo tiag tiag.

Tseeb, peb tuaj yeem nitpick txog qhov screen notch lossis tsis muaj peev xwm kov, tab sis qhov tseeb ntawm qhov teeb meem yog tias qhov no yog ze rau qhov zoo tshaj plaws li txhua lub laptop peb tau tshuaj xyuas. Lub tshuab zoo nkaus li zoo heev, thiab nws yuav rhais los ntawm cov kev xav tau tshaj plaws hauv kev ua haujlwm xws li buzzsaw. Lub tsuas drawback yog tus nqi nyob rau hauv nws lub Upper-echelon configurations. Txawm li cas los xij, yog tias koj yog ib tus kws tshaj lij uas xav tau lub zog kom haum raws li qhov xav tau ntawm koj txoj haujlwm thiab koj cov txuj ci, nws nyuaj rau kev sib cav tias qhov no tsis tsim nyog rau kev siv nyiaj. Rau qhov ua tau zoo tshaj plaws ntawm cov kab kos ntawm cov khoos phis tawj hauv qhov tsim tau yeej, MacBook Pro no tau txais peb qhov khoom plig xaiv xaiv thiab tsis tshua muaj txiaj ntsig zoo.
