Friends, I'm going to make a very bold statement. The M4-based Mac Mini in this bag is my favorite & most useful Apple product. But more than that, it's the most value-for-money Apple product & it's going to be utilized the most in our office in the next 2-3 years. Yes, M4 Mac Mini is surprising! But there's another bag which has the MacBook Pro. Let's quickly talk about it. This is the MacBook Pro & you can do everything on it. And now it's on top of the M4 chipset. Let's start with this & then end with the Mac Mini. Look at it carefully till the end, especially this thing. This is very exciting! If you're new here, then don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! We keep bringing such products for you. If you enjoyed the video, then do hit LIKE! Let's start! Let's remove the box. The form factor has changed a bit. So that's going to be

interesting & I'm going to show that as well. Let's keep this aside. Unboxing MacBook Pro 14. There's a braided USB Type C to MagSafe connector. And it's a braided cable. It's a 70W brick. That's big! Here's the documentation of the MacBook Pro. What else do we have? That expensive cloth! This piece of cloth also costs Rs 2,500. Alright, let's keep this aside & look at the MacBook Pro. Unboxing MacBook Pro 14. Alright! It has a 14-inch display & we also have a 16-inch display. It's very minimalistic. If you look at it from the front & back, there's nothing at the bottom. There are vents which you generally see in other laptops. There's an Apple logo at the front. The ports & buttons have an SD card slot, USB Type C & Thunderbolt. It has a full HDMI port. On the left side, you have the MagSafe connector, 2 USB

Type C, Thunderbolt, and 3.5mm jack. Alright, that's about it! Let's open it with 1 finger. Let's see if we can open it. Yes, it's very easy! And it's already started! I'm not going to talk much about it as it's the same as the previous generation. But there are 3-4 upgrades. The display has become brighter, and now you get this nano texture coating. And look at this, you have to buy it extra as it costs Rs 15,000. It's probably the best anti-glare out there. You won't see any reflections when you're using it outdoors as well. That's going to help you a lot. Its display has become brighter as well. Not much, but it's there. If I talk about the bezels and notch, it's exactly what it was in the previous generation. The keyboard and everything else remains the same. If I talk about the specifications, the main thing is that

the chipset has been upgraded. You get Apple Silicon M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max. The base variant starts from Rs 1,79,900. We have 48GB RAM M4 Pro. And it costs Rs 3,35,000. And the M4 Max variant is going to cost you Rs 4,00,000. So these are expensive machines, but it does the job. You can do whatever you want. If you want to do video editing on the go, gaming, etc. Absolutely no problem, you can do everything on this. But yes, if I compare it with the previous generation M3, it's an incremental update. There's not much of a design change. I forgot to tell you one more update before I close this. Earlier, there used to be a Full HD camera, but now there's a 12MP camera with center stage. So wherever you are, it'll keep you in the middle. So that's what M4-based MacBook Pros are.

So, this is a mean & powerful machine. There's no question about it. Let's keep it aside. Let's take the center stage to the Mac Mini. And do you know why I'm excited about this? Till now, in our office, when we do video editing. Oh! Look at this thing! Earlier, the old one, which was around 10-12 years old, had this form factor. And now, look at this. It was 7.5x7.5 before, now it's a 5x5 block. Yes, the depth has increased a little. We'll talk about this quickly inside the box & see what else is there. Again, you have a power cable. Interesting, there's a 2-pin adapter. And I'm going to talk about power consumption. Your mind will be blown. And then you have documentation. There's nothing else. Absolutely nothing inside the box apart from this power cable. Let us look at this.

Look at this. Oh my God! How much will it weigh? I think about 650g. 750g, let's see. 661g! It's a 650g machine & what all can it do? We'll talk about it, but let's look at the ports & buttons. If I talk about the old M mini, all the ports were at the back & nothing at the front. So it used to look cramped. But not with this one, because now they've given 2 USB Type C ports at the front. Then you have the LED indicator, 3.5mm jack. And then at the back, because it has become smaller, it has 3 USB Type C ports. But this one has Thunderbolt 4.0, full HDMI port, RJ45. And then you have the power connector, power port. Yes, that's about it! In terms of weight, if I take the old one, it's close to a kg or so.

It used to be 1276g, but now it has come to 650g. It's literally a 50% weight reduction! Oh my God! For a quick comparison, I'll show you the old Mac mini & the Mac Studio. Oh my God, this is heavy! Look at this. And its weight? 3.5kg! 3443g! It's 3.5kg! And you know what? This might be more powerful than this! Can you imagine that? Friends, at the start of this video, I was telling Sajid that all our machines are going to change from this. Because think about it, all the machines we've bought have a lot of video editing & colour correction. Which requires powerful machines! And for that, it requires a lot of electricity. It requires 650W-750W SMPS. This one is 150W. The 2 pin connector that we saw, that's about it. It doesn't require a big adapter.

But let's talk about pricing. I said it's value for money. Because its base variant, & even if you're not a student, if you buy the normal one, it's Rs 60K. And in the base variant, you get 16GB RAM. Why? Because Apple Intelligence has arrived & it has more RAM. In Rs 60K, you get 16GB RAM & 256GB storage. And for storage, you can obviously expand it with an SSD. So this one packs in real good specs for a great price! Again, I was talking about the base variant which starts at Rs 60K. This is the 512GB variant & it's Rs 79,900. The top variant of the M4 Pro costs around Rs 1.50-1.60L. If you want a seriously powerful machine, then pick up the top variant. And trust me, we tested it, played games on it, did video editing, colour correction,

ran DaVinci, ran Premiere Pro. Everywhere, it worked flawlessly! Meaning, under Rs 1 Lakh, you have a beautiful & powerful machine! I was thoroughly impressed when I was talking to Sajid about how it's so good. It's all about that Apple Silicon inside. Yes, if I compare it with the M2, its power has nearly doubled! Yes, whether it's CPU or GPU, in both, tremendous performance! And I'm talking about the M4; if you're a M4 Pro, you'll get double the power from the M4! I mean, that's ridiculous! I'd like to say that we haven't seen many titles in gaming. We need more titles; it supports Ray Tracing, we get good FPS, absolutely no problems. But we need more games; we need AAA-rated games on it. We put it through its paces; we ran a lot of benchmarks, whatever it is, I'm showing it on the screen.

Pause the video & see, the scores were very respectable! Connectivity-wise, it has the same options as last year. It has Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, no problems. There's 1 thing I'd like to say, & it happened with our Mac Studio. It came to us 2 years ago, & after using it for 1-1.5 years, there was an issue with the motherboard. We went to the repair centre, & the cost they said, you have to think about the serviceability & repairability. Apple products don't have many issues, but if they do, then keep in mind that it's very difficult to repair. And if you want to do it, it's going to cost you. Out of all the Apple products, the most useful & value-for-money product is this. If you're thinking of buying a Mac Mini, Macbook, or a powerful machine, definitely keep it in mind. That's all for this M4-based Macbook Pro & Mac Mini video.
