M1 Max Mac Studio vs M1 Mac Mini vs M1 Max MacBook Pro | BTS

The M1 Max Studio has just been released and I’m comparing this to the M1 Mac Mini and the 14-inch M1 Max MacBook Pro. I’m bringing you behind the scenes on this review of the Max Studio in a 4K timeline as well as a 8K workflow and a touch of Blender.

The base model Mac Studio (I think) is a great value when you consider a heavier workflow as well as the extra ports you’re getting, and of course thermal headroom for days.
