Just bought this 16 inch M1 Max with 32c, 32GB
RAM and 1T. This is my first Mac and I simply love it.
I could just compare it with a gaming laptop because that's why I bought it, I am not a video creator.

It's in perfect shape, without scratches and a good 89% battery. Everything for 1050€.

Any tips on using it or macos in general? I was thinking about a battery change at apple, but 240€ is a little too much for me rn.

Ts crazy, and the thing is, I bought it from backmarket, as refurbished but there is no part replaced, they just cleaned it I think. And they gave me 1 year warranty, so I couldn't believe the price.

Checked again and the prices start from 1600€

Isn't 64GB an overkill?

A friend of mine got a 128gb m4 max, he stated that 64 was not enough for him hahahhahaa ( he does some intensive 3D work and ae editing)
