    Q: IS there a hard drive higher than 1TB as an option with this device. I work with high quantities of 4K footage for multiple projects throughout the year. In the past I have utilized External SSDs.

    A: Yes! They are available exclusively through the Apple online store. It gets pretty expensive, so I recommend to edit off of external drives but if price isn’t an issue it goes all the way up to 8TB

    Q: Can you please tell me exactly what year model this is? Late 2023, Early 2024?

    A: Both of mine say November 2023, which is when this laptop iteration was released. Hopefully that helps answer your question.

    Q: With these specs allow for Python to run effectively?

    A: Yes! I use my M2 Max with 48gb of memory and it runs fluently and smooth.

    Q: Does it come with an cd/ dvd compartment

    A: It does not. However, you can buy an external USBC drive. It works wonders with it.

    Q: I need the Keyboard spanish latinoamerican, is posible?

    A: You can only get that configured directly at Apple's site.

    Q: Would this be a good computer for editing photography?

    A: Yes. This is a powerful machine & more than meets system requirements for alot of music, video, & photo editing software. Some people like to use their tablets for that as well. Technology & software is advancing so quickly that you can do simple photo editing on your smart phone.

    Q: does this laptop play al 3d games and pc high definition games?

    A: The games I could download from the app star ran really good. You can theoretically get games to run off steam with tinkering.

      Thing of beauty

      I recently got the Apple MacBook Pro 16” with the M3 Max chip, and I'm thrilled, especially since I saved $1,000! The Space Black design looks really sleek and professional. But what really impressed me is how powerful this laptop is. With 48 GB of memory and a 40-core GPU, it handles everything I need, whether it's heavy data analysis or video editing. The 1 TB SSD makes sure everything loads super fast, and the battery lasts all day, so I don’t need to worry about charging. Using macOS on this laptop feels smooth and well-integrated. With the discount, it feels like I got an amazing deal for such high performance. I do not have to think about the performance of laptop untill 2030.

      Powerful solid laptop

      Solid specs and quality. Fast running. Very long battery life. It will never use up my RAM again. No need to use the swap, so the SSD is also fast-running and hopefully long lasting. Get no problem in editing photos and videos. It is really excited to work on such a powerful laptop. The black color also looks amazing. The only weakness is its weight. I felt a burden to carry it with me when on travel But you cannot expect such a monster to be light-weighted.
