The M1 Pro/Max are certainly giving you more power. To compare to the standard M1, that only posts up in the mid 7,400s. Keep in mind that entire platform and processor bump is going to cost multiple times that of the MacBook Pro and be far more power hungry (plus, it's not a laptop). To match that with other Macs you would have to go for a Mac Pro with at least 12 cores, and to beat it you'll be looking for 16 cores or more. The math makes it easy to say that these new chips are more powerful.Įarly Geekbench results pin the M1 Pro (10-core) and Max in the mid 12,000s. Now, with the M1 Pro and Max, you are going up to 10 cores, with eight being performance cores and two being efficiency cores. The original M1 split its eight cores between four performance cores designed for heavy-duty work and four efficiency cores that minimize draw for less intense tasks.
The Pro and Max are based on the same underlying architecture, they are just more of it. The move to Apple silicon is the biggest change for the MacBook Pro lineup and these new chips are far more powerful than the original M1. The main event must be the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips. Extra CPU cores will also help power through different video formats, such as raw.Īll these features combined make it easy to recommend the 16" MacBook Pro with M1 Max for video editors. Dedicated areas of the chip for video encode/decode-an extra one on the Max-will speed up video-editing tasks. Plus, the 16" model is less thermally limited than the 14" version and even offers a High Power mode for when you need the maximum in performance.
The M1 Max chip adds hardware that specifically improves video editing workflows-especially for ProRes formats.
