While its exporting speeds are still record-breaking for a laptop, its lead over other powerful laptops is only marginal here. This is an area where options on the Windows side of the fence struggle to compete. Video playback is by far the biggest video editing strength of Apple’s M1 Pro and M1 Max, thanks to the superiority of its media playback engine. It’s 12% faster at video playback, and 21% faster at timeline exports. The RTX 3070 in the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro was the only competing laptop to beat the M1 Max MacBook Pro in the GPU score. That GPU score also beats the RTX 3060 in the Dell XPS 17 and MSI Creator Z16, as well as the RTX 3070 in the Razer Blade 14. It scores 40% higher in applying GPU-based effects than the M1 Pro - 58 versus 35. When you dig into the individual tasks that PugetBench tests, though, you can see where the M1 Max’s strengths lie. To put it in context, it’s also a 58% higher score than the M1 Mac Mini. That might not sound like a lot, but a score of 1,167, which is what the M1 Max MacBook Pro achieved, is still the highest score I’ve ever recorded in this test on a laptop by a mile. In terms of its overall score, the M1 Max was only 16% higher than the M1 Pro. Both systems were tested with 32GB of Apple’s unified memory. The Adobe Premiere PugetBench test benchmarks a number of tasks to show how a system balances performance between both components. Video editing is a good example of a workflow that relies equally on the power of both the CPU and the GPU, depending on what specific task you’re testing. If you’re comparing apples to apples in terms of processors, you’re not going to see twice the performance when you upgrade your graphics. The problem is that not many workflows or applications depend only on graphics. In terms of pure graphics performance, it gets close. In other words, is the 32-core M1 Max really twice as powerful as the M1 Pro? Own an iPhone, iPad, or MacBook? Install this critical update right nowĪpple could be working on a secret OLED MacBook AirĪpple could soon put an M3 chip in its worst laptopĪll of that seems priced correctly - so long as the performance holds evenly as you scale up the graphics toward that top configuration.
