The speed of processing has improved a lot with M series. I had an Intel pro from 2014, which was struggling to process video editing even in 1024p. This one is smoooooth.
I'm running excel, word, google drive, meet, etc. I was worried whether I'd made the wrong decision to go to a MacBook from PC. Wow, so far I am so happy with my decision. Worth the money. It does everything and just works and is a little bit snobbish about it. From a ford to a mazerati. Wow!
Been an Apple fan and user, like forever. No problems with this latest MacPro. My only gripe is, nothing was wrong with my old MacPro. Apple simply stated it was no longer providing firmware updates. So no option but to buy another MacPro. Apple does this with everything; i.e. iPhones, iPads, etc. I think it's just an easy money grab to force you to keep buying Apple if you like Apple products. Also no price deal through Amazon or Apple. Both were the same price. Just easier to purchase and receive through Amazon.
The MacBook Pro with the M2 processor is somewhat faster than my MacBook Pro with a M1 processor. The system is compatible with my software and my peripheral devices. It replaces a well-loved, well-used MacBook Air from 2015. Its limited I/O capabilities really get in the way. such a disappointment. Apple clearly is focused on form over function.
Unlike the earlier system, this system only has two ports for peripheral devices and charging. So, if you'd like to attach a power cord, a time machine drive, and anything else, you need to purchase a USB-C docking station. What a pain!
Since previous generations of Time Machine devices used USB-A connectors and this machine doesn't have one, setting up the machine is much, much more painful than necessary. One has to purchase and received a dongle to attach a USB-A device.
Furthermore, all of the dongles I've purchased over the years to attach devices need to be purchased again because they support lightening, USB-A or Micro USB rather than USB C.
The transport company didn't communicate with me about the delivery and expected me to sit at home for 12 hours waiting for the driver to arrive so that I could accept the box and sign for it. UPS does not provide usable tracking information for the day of delivery.
All-in-all, I like the machine, but I/O limitations are a constant irritation.
