      No it isn’t.

    Hades 2……. ????????????

    Terrible game to use as a benchmark for gaming.

    • @JoshG_CNET

      November 7, 2024 at 10:27 am

      Agreed, I should’ve shown something more challenging; it just happened to be what was up on it when we started shooting and I’m lazy lol

    Hades is a terrible benchmark for gaming. Something like Tomb Raider or Resident Evil would be better, as those are natively available on Mac (and Windows ofc)

    • @nitinanku

      November 7, 2024 at 8:18 pm

      Hades 2 is native on MacOS, they did that recently

    Gamers should understand that ARM chips are not good for non native ARM games because pretty much all games made for x86 architecture

    where can I get that wolf wallpaper at the beginning of the video?

  7. @thenotoriousgryyn342

    I’d rather get an ipad pro

  8. @onair5900

    November 7, 2024 at 1:12 pm

    Why that loud background music?

  9. @tristanwalls6266

    November 7, 2024 at 1:57 pm

    Do you find yourself wanting to tap the screen but you cannot?

  10. @jthoward7279

    November 7, 2024 at 2:12 pm

    I have m3 16” but I want the m4 so I can get the nano textured display

  11. @mex5341

    November 7, 2024 at 2:15 pm

    Macbook m3 pro with 18 ram /512 ssd now costs less and outperfoms base M4 model

    • @crazycomments8038

      ok

  12. @dylanlee5342

    November 7, 2024 at 2:16 pm

    Yaaaa demo of hades 2 is nothing lol. Most things can handle that style of game easily

    Nice video ????

    When MacBook Pro would be best for AAA latest games?

    • @Ferdi9nd

      November 7, 2024 at 3:36 pm

      Never. Go to sleep

  15. @recursion.

    November 7, 2024 at 3:26 pm

    gonna wait for m6

  16. @Ferdi9nd

    November 7, 2024 at 3:32 pm

    i am waiting for m10

  17. @gigglybeast

    November 7, 2024 at 3:32 pm

    Is “High Power” bad for the battery’s life if you are plugged in? Seems like the machine would be getting most of its power from the cord rather than straining the battery.

  18. @Ferdi9nd

    November 7, 2024 at 3:35 pm

    I would rather eat an apple and be healthy

  19. @lonebot2003

    November 7, 2024 at 3:54 pm

    The price is just monstrous ????, at 1400$ I got a Lenovo with 32G Ram and 2T SSD so I can have as many virtual machines as I want. Apple ssd price is just a deal breaker

  20. @Sirhc7000

    November 7, 2024 at 3:58 pm

    CNET I love you, and sorry to be annoying but Hades 2 is not a game to benchmark graphical performance. At least download one of the Resident Evil Remakes. C’mon guys I feel like that should be obvious.

    Ai features work from M1 mac’s onwards

  22. @Aethid

    Might as well have played Tetris to demo gaming performance.

  23. @Lruiz3865

    November 7, 2024 at 5:18 pm

    No OLED display? ????????????

  24. @WarlordMoA

    November 7, 2024 at 5:46 pm

    Please redo this video with better music that is less distracting and loud.

  25. @MichaelHattayer

    November 7, 2024 at 7:04 pm

    2:24 Wait, did you not test battery claims on this unit? “The M3 Pro got 21 hours so we believe them”. That’s stupid, 3 hours more of battery is worth benchmarking. If you didn’t have time due to the embargo you need to just say that lol
