Mac Studio

Super great computer! I like the form factor and small space allocated! Besides, the coupling with the Mac Display is simply beautiful!

Perfect computer for our needs and more

This computer is absolutely perfect for our needs. It will actually allow us to expand what we are currently able to do. We primarily use this computer to run our media for our Sunday services. Now we will be able to handle all of our live streaming and recording on this same computer. This computer is more than powerful enough to handle all of these tasks and more.

Zippy little machine

I bought this to replace my 2012 Mac Pro that sadly was EOL'd by Apple. The product arrived promptly & very well packaged by Adorama. Migration from my old Cheese Grater to the Mac Studio over ethernet went smoothly, albeit a bit slowly. I found no need for Firewire to USB-C adapters. One cautionary note about the migration; you may find that some of your older programs don't work (I think it has to do with dropping 32 bit support). You may want to check your older software for compatibility before you press that buy button. For me, the biggest loss was being unable to use my trusty MS Office 2008. I'm philosophically opposed to the software subscription model, so it's Pages & Numbers on my new machine instead of Office 365. I haven't had a chance to push the limits of this machine yet but everything seems so much faster, program start-up, photo rendering, search operations, to name a few.

The Mac I've Been Waiting For

This is the Mac I've been hoping Apple would make for YEARS. It's like a pro version of a Mac Mini with plenty of ports, all in a slick looking body that belongs on a desk. It's a beast, yet it's very quiet. In fact, I haven't heard the fan kick in yet. Would I recommend a Mac Studio? ABSOLUTELY.

Wonderful but noisy

Performance is great and overall it's a great machine. I will say that the only downside is that it does have an ambient noise to it. Apparently it's the fans and it somewhat high pitched but certainly audible. Overall it's not terrible but 100% not silent so if you are in a pretty quiet area, you will notice it.

It?s a fast little computer

It?s exactly as described. Nice little computer, does everything I want and very fast and responsive. The way I have used it so far doesn?t do justice to its capabilities. I probably would have been perfectly happy with a Mac Mini with 32GB of RAM, but that doesn?t exist and this was the closest thing.

A real powerhouse.

Google for my full review. It took a week to get my Mac Pro stuff transferred to the Studio, and to get the Studio properly configured. Apple support was useless--did not know what mounting a disk meant. Nor could they help me figuring out how to not do the migration over WiFi. All the ports are used up now, and I had to buy several USB hubs. Be sure they do 10 Gbps transfers, at least USB 3.1. I also had to spend $1000 to get an OWC ThunderBay Flex 8 Thunderbolt enclosure to house my (so far) 5 internal drives that I transferred from my Mac Pro. I also have 3 external USB drives plugged into those fast USB ports. I also had to buy a Pioneer BlueRay DVD drive to install old software https://<a href="http://www.adorama.com/pibdrxs07s.html" target="_blank">www.adorama.com/pibdrxs07s.html</a> Be warned that Apple Silicon does not allow virtualization, so my Parallels 17 and Windows 11 ARM beta will not support subsystems for Android or Linux.

Asking for Premature Pats on the Back

Perhaps you all should wait until a product is received, maybe 10-12 weeks from now, before asking for reviews and rating your performance.

Mac Studio Realness

I?m a colorist and I really needed something efficient and FAST. So far, the Mac studio hasn?t let me down! And it?s so sleek.

Good deal fast shiipping

This replaced a 2015 iMac 27". Everything that I have tested so far is faster. It definitely is much quieter and does not get nearly as warm. Also definitely uses much less power according to my power meter about half so far. Finally an M1 Mac with enough ports. Was waiting for the new Mac mini but I think the Mac studio should probably be able to run faster due to its better cooling capability. Also no guarantee that the new Mac mini will have enough ports or be available in a timely manner so decided to get the studio to become my main desk top. Very happy so far

Outsized performance.

Fits right in.
The incredible power and efficiency of Apple silicon has allowed us to completely reimagine the high-performance desktop. The design inspiration for Mac Studio was simple: to let M1 Max - and your creativity - run completely unrestrained, within the smallest possible footprint. It fits perfectly under most displays, putting prodigious power and connectivity at arm's reach, right on your desk.

Plays it cool.
Within the 7.7-inch-square Mac Studio enclosure lies a groundbreaking thermal system designed to let M1 Max fly through heavy workloads at screaming-fast speeds - and stay whisper quiet.

Powerful connections.
Mac Studio lets you create the studio of your dreams with an array of 12 high-performance ports, located front and back for convenient access. Easily connect - and disconnect - your camera, external storage, and other devices from the front. See the bigger picture by plugging in up to four Pro Display XDRs and one 4K TV. There's also a headphone jack with advanced support for high-impedance headphones or line out for amplified speakers.

macOS and pro apps. Optimized for Apple silicon.
macOS Monterey was designed to scale with Apple silicon, so the system automatically benefits from the increased graphics, massive memory, and powerful machine learning of M1 Max. With over 10,000 optimized apps and plug-ins - and great new macOS features like Universal Control, Shortcuts, and Focus - you can work, play, and create in ways you never imagined.

Designed with the earth in mind.
Mac Studio was engineered to minimize its environmental impact, from how it's built to how it's packaged and shipped - even how it's used. Thanks to the efficiency of Apple silicon, Mac Studio raises the bar for desktops in its class by requiring far less energy than its competitors. Over the course of a year, Mac Studio will use up to 1,000 kilowatt-hours less energy than a high-end PC desktop. It uses 100 percent recycled rare earth elements in its magnets and recycled tin in the solder of the main logic board. All virgin wood fiber in its packaging comes from responsibly managed forests.
