I plan to buy a mac. But I can't choose between two laptops:
MacBook Pro 16 Apple M3 Max 36GB/1TB and MacBook Pro 16 Apple M4 Pro 48GB/512GB.
I plan to work on programs like After effects and Autodesk Maya.
Please help me choose a laptop that is more suitable for such work.
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.5
M4 Pro. You want the 14/20 core version, and increase the SSD to 1 Tb minimum.
There is an M4 Max version of the MBP. You might want to check it out, too. It has even more GPU cores which will help with rendering in Maya.

512GB is not much these days.

I’m looking at the same ones. Best Buy has the M3 Max as brand new. The difference in prices is about $100.
what I’ve heard is the M3 Max runs hot and load under load. Especially when gaming. I’m personally thinking of going it the M4 Pro.
I’m looking at buying off the shelf. Going to be running a VM with parallels and windows 11. That’s why I’m thinking 48 on the Ram.
