It's perfect for mobile application development and video editing. It's a great device for mobile application development and video editing. It does what it's asked to do without any problem, I hesitated with the mac studio but the beautiful screen of this macbook and the astronomical price of the studio display convinced me to take this model and I don't regret it.
I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the Macbook as a desktop or a laptop, but it's a good idea to use the Macbook as a desktop.
The macbook also has enough power to run some games to pass the time occasionally but does not replace my 5 year old gamer pc in terms of gaming performance.
