The day was August 1st, 2011... Well.. Earlier actually. More like 2009.. But that's a story for another video. 2011 is actually my first full day on Pocketnow, and that 13-inch MacBook Pro behind me was what started it all.

Apple's New MacBook video really sold me on it. You gotta understand that at the time, there were no laptops with multi-touch trackpads, aluminum unibody housings, back-lit keyboards, or LED backlights. This Mac was only one of few, and the only one I could afford.

At the time we were already doing video, and iMovie was fine at first. The problem is when we came up with the idea of the Pocketnow Daily, and decided to do multi-layered content. My first ever 3 minute project took one and a half hours to render and export. Nope, I'm not exaggerating. After hours of editing was done, renders took hours on Final Cut 7.

But see, this has been the paradigm of computing for decades. If you want more power to export a video in minutes, portability doesn't help. You either got a powerful desktop, or spent thousands of dollars on a large and heavy laptop. The maxed-out 16-inch MacBook Pro I bought back in September was $4700, and even with 64 gigs of RAM, a powerful GPU, and fan noise like a jet engine, you make peace with some compromise in performance and battery life.

For years, I've dreamed of an ultra-portable laptop like my first Mac, but that could handle all my tasks, last all day on a charge, and not cost an arm and a leg. I knew Apple Silicon was coming, but like every marketing pitch, it sounded too good to be true. Apple has never gotten first-generation products right. I still bought the cheapest models, just out of curiosity, cause I figured they were still not going to fulfill my dream, and well.. I was kind of wrong.

-- Epic Intro --

This is the M1 13-inch MacBook Pro, what Apple calls the future of the Mac, which is actually the least pretentious thing they've ever said about a product. After two months of using it, I'm gonna actually go as far as to say it doesn't do this computer enough justice. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow, and this is our extended review, sponsored by iVANKY. Stick around to learn how iVANKY can solve one of my few complaints.
