Each my 2015 5k retina 27 inch iMac and 2018 MacBook Professional are displaying indicators of age and I want a brand new setup – costly choices incoming.
I’m at the moment wanting on the Mac Mini M2 Professional and a 16 inch M3 MacBook Professional. I primarily earn a living from home however I do go away semi recurrently and having one thing moveable to work from is beneficial. I can’t resolve if I ought to get monetary savings by getting a excessive spec Mac Mini (equally specced MBP are much more costly) then get a less expensive MBP/MBA for portability, or simply get a excessive spec MBP for each makes use of. The 16 inch MBP most likely is sensible so I’ve a giant display screen on the go, however the concept of getting my major desktop setup utilizing a laptop computer that might get knocked, broken, stolen, and a battery that might get rapidly worn out from plugging and unplugging on a regular basis one way or the other simply feels much less slick.
I’ll additionally want to think about a monitor. Fairly tempted to salvage my completely good 5k iMac monitor with a converter board somewhat than splurge one other £1500+ on a studio show.
I primarily earn a living from home within the UK, in Adobe CC (no 3D, minimal video).
Any recommendation could be appreciated.
