M1/M2/M3 for Photography/Garageband/Video(light) (alien.top)
 

Hi, recently got a pro-camera and am looking at getting a MacBook for editing. I've never owned a MacBook.

I currently edit using Lightroom on the phone but am limited by its screen size.

I also plan on doing basic video editing (currently using Light Cup - very basic but want to improve) and music recording using GarageBand.

I've done basic multi-tracking in GarageBand as well as score composing using an old iPad mini so, as far that is concerned I should be fine with any model but it looks like the photo editing aspect might play a bigger role.

Looking at:

  1. 14" M2Pro 16gb + 512gb
  2. 14" M3 Pro 18gb + 512gb

Both of them running at $1799, the M2 was running at $1599 and is now unavailable ๐Ÿ˜ž

3)Also saw a 16" M1 16gn + 1Tb for $1829 https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1668189-REG/apple_mk193ll_a_16_2_macbook_pro_with.html/qa

What are the major significant changes I should look out for? Speakers? Battery life? Backlit keys?

For the price I think I should just go ahead and get the M3 since it's a newer model unless the M2 drops again in price.

Thanks
