Diving into my first week with the base model 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M3 Pro.
ALL MY FAVORITE GEAR IS LISTED BELOW 👇

I bought the new Space Black MacBook Pro as soon as it was announced, and I didn't know what to expect given the M2 Pro MacBook came out less than a year ago. In this video, I dive into my first week with the M3 MacBook Pro, this is the base model with the 512GB SSD, 18GB of RAM — let's see how it does!

    Man, this was your first work I just watched accidently, genuinely top level, classic and unique. just subscribed and look forward to your next videos!
  • @Stash_Studio
    Appreciate the no-nonsense, honest real-world review! Great video, instant sub.
  • @nathanreedy4380
    Kyle, I like your down to earth, real life use case reviews & talk about whatever you are reviewing.
  • @FinnCB
    Best review I've watched so far! Glad to see someone actually acknowledge the SSD bump.
  • @jaybyrd1985
    After having owned Windows computers for years I bit the bullet and purchased the MacBook Pro with the M3 Pro. I love it, got the model with an 512 gb ssd and 18 gb of ram.
  • @JP-bq9jg
    These Wallpapers are awesome! Cant wait for them!
  • Hello Kyle. I have used Windows for as long as I can remember. I am 51 years old, very recently disabled overnight, literally, so I turned to video production, but my Samsung Book crashed yesterday and after doing some research, it came clear to me, Apple MacBook was the way forward for my new life at home. I don't have much money, so I purchased my first ever Apple computer: Apple MacBook M3 Pro 16inch. I will be purchasing Cubase 13 Pro later today after my MacBook is delivered. I only had the Space Black colour to choose from. I will be watching more of your videos as I do not know what I am doing. Thank you for your video.

    This is supposed to be the first 3 nm chips. We wasn’t waiting for a slight, barely noticeable upgrade. I’ll keep my M1 Pro one more year at least.
  • @jpperry2117
    I’ve watched a lot of these videos and yours wins the award for best cinematography.
  • Got the m3 pro after having a regular m1 mac book pro, The step up in performance is night and day. Recent video has editing has been so fast and the display is amazing
  • @tanzhonghui
    Loved the production quality and aesthetic! Top notch! (without faceID)
  • @simongross3122
    Thanks for the review. I'd be interested in how hot the M3 gets compared to the M2 under the same load.
  • @owen9899
    Hey Kyle, love the quality and look of your videos. Was wondering what your filming gear are (camera, lenses, gimbal, slider, lighting, other equipment)?
  • @Vahex4
    This was my first MacBook…. I love it so much got the 16 inch and the 14 inch, ended up keeping the 16 inch. 11/10 laptop
  • @MarbsMusic
    Excellent review! I just upgraded my 16" M1 Pro to a 14" M3 Pro with the 18/1TB option in black. Really enjoying it so far!
  • @leviarnits
    That crisp display and improved performance is just a YES from me. I always love your in-depth analysis of the performance, because let's be honest we all look at performance first. Keep up the fire content
  • @l3martin
    I had my Macbook M3 Pro for 5 weeks now. Absolutely awesome! But then again... It is my first Mac ever. Running Windows 11 and Fedora on my two Dell laptops. So not really a fair comparison. Once you go Mac, you will never go back!
  • @HealthPKW
    Awesome review! I appreciated that you focused on real life usage and day to day performance instead of relying on benchmark numbers like most other tech reviewers do. im not buying it for benchmark numbers(i guess i am indirectly …) however im more concerned for how it performs and I think you did a great job portraying that. In retrospect, do you think you should have upgraded the RAM to 36gb or has 18gb been smooth sailing for you?
