I have an m3 ultra. I don’t think I need to upgrade. I also find it amusing they’re comparing the m4 to the m1 and i7 processors.

- sroussey 2y agoThere is no M3 Ultra.
- iluvcommunism 2y agoI meant pro. My mistake. I was going to maybe upgrade it but it appears m4 isn’t much better.
- roopepal 2y agoI find it amusing how you answer your own "question" before asking it. Why would they target the marketing material at people who already know they aren't going to need to upgrade?
- iluvcommunism 2y agoRoopepal did someone piss in your coffee this morning? I had no questions. I’m merely saying that it’s funny they’re comparing to old technology instead of last year’s. It’s a valid criticism. Take a breath.
- doublebind 2y agoApple knows an M4 is a hard sell for M2/3 owners. Except if you have specific workflows that can take advantage of the newer silicon, you'll spend a lot of money on something you probably don't need. I have an M1 32GB with multiple software packages running, and I see no reason to replace this machine. This is why Apple is comparing against M1: M1 owners are the potential buyers for this computer. (And yes, the marketing folks know the performance comparison graphs look nicer as well :)
