Nick convinced me to upgrade: M1 Max MacBook Pro

Griffin travels to New York, with his new MacBook Pro M1 Max. Improved battery life, integrated SD card slot and HDMI port—much-needed features, but how did Nick convince Griffin to upgrade to the more expensive “Max” configuration rather than “Pro”?

Nick noticed this tip from Jonathan Morrison—for video editors to take advantage of the new HDR-capable MacBook Pro screen:

cool final cut + M1 pro/max MacBook trick when you’re using a 2nd display
Set your bigger display as the main in Mac OS and send the viewer to the MacBook. Press cmd shift f for full screen & you have a full screen HDR viewing where you can still edit + make tweaks in timeline”
