Transcripts

you guys asked for it and we are

delivering this is the surface laptop 7

with the X Elite that beat out the M3 in

a lot of tasks so we are comparing it to

the M3 Pro just like you guys asked and

not only we're going to compare the

actual laptops the displays speakers

everything about them but we're going to

do a lot of performance tests both

benchmarks and real world tests and both

of these are at 100% battery life so we

are going to compare that as well so now

let's go ahead and unplug both of them

and I have to say I love that we have

that surface connector for charging its

magnetic just like mac safe and of

course you could still use the USBC on

both of them now here are the full specs

of each laptop and you can see how great

of a value this surface laptop 7 is

matching up the specs now the MacBook is

two grand but you can pick it up right

now on Amazon for

$16.99 we'll link it down below that is

a killer value but we'll see how they

compare in the real world now in terms

of the quality and the design both are

made out of solid really nice aluminum

this surface laptop is really good

size-wise they are very similar and as

far as thickness at the rear portion of

the surface it's slightly thicker but

because of its wedge shape just like the

old school MacBooks it's thinner at the

front the surface is lighter at 3 lb

compared to 3.5 both of these do have

fans buil in and as far as the ports the

surface has a USB type a port which is

nice both have dual USB C's on the leand

side but the MacBook does have

Thunderbolt so has a little bit more

capabilities like daisy chaining and

having better dock support but the

surface does have fast USB 4 but the

MacBook does have some extras on the

right hand side we have a fast HDM my we

have another Thunderbolt and an SD card

reader which is so nice to have built in

now as far as the keyboards both of

these are really nice the magic

keyboards are great the surface also

feels great it has a nice tactile feel

but I prefer the slightly concave Keys

both are excellent though and in terms

of the trackpads the Mac has a slightly

larger one but the surface is also

magnetic so it's not a diving board

design and this is the best track

backpad on any Windows laptop it is

excellent now on the Mac you can see

speaker grills on the left and right

side of the keyboard whereas they are

hidden on the surface now the surface

beat out the 13-in MacBook here in terms

of speakers so let's go ahead and

compare it to the 14-in that has a six

speaker

system Normal Heart Break pain killer

take me somewhere un

bring me back to where we

started

out all right you guys heard that for

yourselves the Mac in the 14in size is

amazing it's full it's rich and the base

hits so deep because of dedicated wers

so if you willing to spend a little bit

more money on the 14in pro Max I mean

they are amazing now as far as webcams

this is the 1080p webcam on the 14-in

MacBook Pro along with their studio

quality microphones like apple likes to

name them and this is the 1080p webcam

on the surface laptop 7 the first thing

it stands out is that it does give you a

wider image and I also can see dual

microphones right on top of that screen

so you guys let me know which one looks

better and which one sounds better down

in the comment section below now the

MacBook has Touch ID to log in whereas

the surface has Windows

hello right there it sees me it logs me

in and even though the lid thickness is

the same Microsoft managed to put

Windows hello into this but apple with a

notch did not there's no excuse for not

adding it in now as far as the bezels

nice all around of course we don't have

that Notch here and comparing the

displays the MacBook does have more

resolution it's a little bit higher but

you can't really tell looking at them

both look nice and sharp and the MacBook

does have

promotion and the surface also has their

own version it goes up to 120 htz it

could drop down to as low as 24 Herz to

save battery power so both are very nice

now one thing the surface has that the

Mac doesn't is a touchscreen display so

if you like to interact with touch only

the surface can do that now both these

displays are rated at 600 nits native

but when you're watching HDR footage the

MacBook can go up to

1,600 so looking back at this 4K HDR

video the highlights pop a lot more in

some of these scenes than what you get

on the surface now I'm also seeing much

better contrast as well because the Mac

has a mini LED display with a bunch of

zones where the back lighting could be

turned off giving us nice deep blacks

and compared to the surface where the

blacks look a little bit gray even

though it has really good

anti-reflective Coatings now if you're

watching something at night particularly

if you have a lot of contrast there the

difference is massive the macbook's

highlights still pop like crazy but you

get those deep blacks whereas with the

LCD screen on the surface all the blacks

look look gray you don't have the same

super bright highlights so the

experience doesn't really even compare

the macbook's display is so nice but the

only downside is if you're looking off

access or with crazy high contrast you

do notice some blooming now it's also

crazy to see the difference in

antireflectivity Coatings the surface is

a lot more reflective even though it

beat out the regular M3 MacBook Air the

14in MacBook Pro has really really good

antireflectivity Coatings so that's

going to be great for using it outdoors

and of course you can get the app that

kicks up the brightness even more and I

want to remind you guys that we do have

a big price difference here but if you

don't need the M3 Pro for 1,400 bucks

you can get the regular M3 in this

machine and have this amazing display

and now as we get into performance I

want to give you an update on the

battery life before we start hitting it

hard the MacBook is at

94% while we're doing all that shooting

whereas the surface is already already

at 89% so it is a little bit lower but

now we're going to start pushing them

and we'll see what happens and now let's

go ahead and compare the performance of

the ssds like I mentioned both of these

have 512 GB ssds so it's an even playing

field all right guys look at this

difference the MacBook Pro with the M3

Pro is so fast we have 64% difference in

terms of performance almost 6,000 here

now the surface is not bad and in the

right speeds we have 4,600 compared to

2500 that is an

84% difference so the ssds are clearly

faster with this Mac and now I have

geekbench 6 opened up you guys see we

have 18 gigs compared to 16 and we have

a big difference in core counts we have

a 12 core compared to an 11 core because

this M3 Pro is the bend version but only

five of those are performance cores with

six efficiency where on the X Elite all

12 are actually performance cores and we

have higher frequencies too let's head

run on both of these and I want to point

out that the X Elite in the surface

laptop 7 is an 80 skew which is not the

highest but out of all of the xelite

laptops we tested it is actually the

fastest on battery power so Props to

Microsoft for giving us good performance

whether we're plugged in or unplugged

compared to other manufacturers that

will limit it and we do have this set to

the best performance because that's what

we're doing all right and here are the

results and it is so close even though

this is the 80 skew it beat out the M3

Pro in multie we have just under 14,000

compared to

14,260 and if we look at the single core

the Mac is faster by about 200 points

it's about a 6% difference but the

performance you're getting for the money

with the surface laptop 7 on battery

power is excellent and I have

speedometer 3.0 opened up here both

using Chrome and this is going to give

us um an image of just how quick and

snappy the web browsing performances and

look at that we have 37.7 compared to

28.4 28.4 is very fast but we have a

difference of 33% in favor of the M3 Pro

and now I have have the figma app opened

up here for web design we'll see how it

Compares this project right here is

brought To Us by 500 designs one of the

best design studios in

California and I'm going just start out

by testing out the smoothness so let's

go right over here we have these high

resolution images and that is loaded up

very quick very Snappy let's try another

one right over here so we have couple

seconds here bam it loaded up now let's

try it on the surface and this is a

touchcreen so here I can select let me

just zoom in this way I'm going to go to

that same exact

spot right here that loaded up super

quick and the little image lower is

higher resolution so let's zoom in

here wow so that loaded up even quicker

than it did on the Mac and now I have 12

high resolution layers selected here

we're going to export all of these and

see how quick it is all right guys we

are done and I want to mention that

figma is actually native for arm so it

is not being emulated so we are getting

full performance the Mac took a minute

and 20 whereas the excelite surface took

a minute and 51 seconds so the surface

took 38% longer than our M3 Pro MacBook

and now let's take a look at graphics

performance once again this is the bend

M3 Pro and I have 3D Mark Wildlife

extreme unlimited opened up we are going

to run this and this game test is really

optimized for these kinds of arm chips

and for mobile devices all right guys

wow what a difference here we have

72.4 compared to

38.158900 per higher on the M3 Pro even

the bin version that is crazy but now I

want to go and test the brand new steel

Nomad light this is more of a AAA game

title as far as performance testing so

let's run this and look at this right

here my goodness we have 37.6 compared

to

4.44 that is 2.6 times better frames per

second on the max so if you're going to

be trying to play some games I mean the

M3 Pro even the bend is so much faster

and now let's really push these chips to

their limits with cin bench I'm going to

start the 10minute throttling test and

on the Mac we're able to see all our

information so right here we're going

just above 20 watts 22 right there I saw

at the peak unfortunately with the X

Elite we don't have a lot of information

we have some temps and frequencies so we

saw a peak of 4,000 MHz 4 GHz but it's

only on two cores and right now that we

got started we're running at about 3 GHz

compared to

3.58 so this is clocking faster now in

terms of the temps it did shoot up

pretty quick as well and of course the

fan it's going to spin up on here on the

Mac right now we're averaging 88 um 95

was the highest we hit but of course the

fans are speeding up and as far as we

know the actual wattage running this

test should be roughly the same around

23 WTS for the system so it's going to

be a very interesting comparison now one

thing that's really stood out testing

these chips is that now they're running

at 2500 MHz across all of the cores 27

and sometimes it even gets as low as

2,200 even though the temperatures are

fairly low I hear um the cooling system

running right now and it seems almost as

if the chip is just just being limited

by the amount of power that it can have

and because it doesn't get enough

wattage the clock speeds have to drop

and that is just so weird compared to

Intel systems and other Macs where

typically were limited by heat and this

is likely because this chip was

originally designed for servers at much

higher wattages than cooling but they

able to they were able to package it

down into an efficient underclocked

mobile chip and now it's been around 5

and 1/2 minutes the fans are all sped up

everything's stabilized and the surface

laptop 7 is running a little bit cooler

than the MacBook but also a little bit

louder the MacBook has a hum just

slightly above ambient and now I have my

thermal cam here so let's take a look

we're getting 39° or so the hottest part

of the M3 MacBook Pro you guys could see

the Dual fans right over there and let's

take a look at the surface

46 they're at the hottest part and then

we have the Heat going to one corner I

think this thing has just a single fan

but we've noticed that um these laptops

the chip itself is consistently pretty

dang hot even with fans and as this is

finishing up I want to mention that even

though the fan is louder on the surface

with all of these exite laptops none of

them are crazy loud and you never have a

thing where you open up a web browser

browser or you're starting up your

machine or maybe installing an app and

the fans are just ramping up and down so

they've been designed really well and

with this kind of a characteristic it's

much more like a Mac and it seems like

they're okay with the chip maybe getting

a little bit hotter uh or um more based

off of chassis temperature and keeping

the fans from going crazy and blaring

like you would get on Intel laptops and

that just gets really annoying so this

is much more like a Macbook all right

guys we have our scores and we have 881

for the bend M3 Pro and

836 for this x Elite so that's only a

difference of about 6% between the two

machines and now I have blender opened

up right here we're going to do the

classic BMW test and right here on the

exite in the settings I want to show you

guys that none of these Technologies are

supported for the X Elite so we're going

to have to do the basic um CPU r

rendering whereas on the Mac you have

metal and it does work really quickly so

now let's go ahead and render this all

right guys we have our times here the

MacBook took 21 seconds compared to get

this 4 minutes and 41 seconds for the X

Elite now of course we're not able to

use graphics for a compute it's not

supported and that time with CPU is not

quick and the Mac on the other hand it

even has rate tracing built in the chip

which the ex Elite does not so it flies

through 3D rendering so this machine is

definitely not for that and just to

prove the point I went ahead and I ran

the same render using CPU only on the

MacBooks we're not using Graphics or

rate tracing and it took 2 minutes and

42 seconds compared to that

441 so the X Elite it was faster in

geekbench it was almost as fast in cin

bench but here instead of having 6%

difference in cine bench we have a

difference of 73% it took 73% longer

than the Mac so that is just crazy um

now of course this is also emulated

running blender here but typically we

saw like a 10% uh hit in performance for

emulated applications but this just

shows you the real world scenarios where

you can run an app that might not be

optimized and then the chip doesn't do a

great job for this specific task as well

you can have a big difference in

performance and now let's get into some

other creative apps I have Adobe

Lightroom classic opened up right here

we've tested it a couple times in

previous videos and it actually works

quite fast even though it's emulated now

before we export these 50 edited high

resolution images I want to do a couple

things that a lot of people are using

and this is what's going to use that npu

um so we have uh let's go with the sky

first I'm going to click it at the same

time

so right there on the Mac definitely a

lot quicker probably twice as fast or

three times faster let's go ahead and

add another one

here we'll use that AI to select the

subject bam done on the Mac almost

instantly here it is looking bam once

again that is roughly three times

quicker almost instant compared to

sitting and waiting now I'm going to

just flip through through some of these

images here and switching through is

still pretty quick even though this does

have to use emulation now regular

Lightroom the mobile web kind of based

one for cloud that is optimized it's

written for arm but some of these other

programs if you like to use classic like

a lot of professional photographers like

well there it is going to be a little

bit of a weight for all these apps to

get optimized uh and set up and now

let's go ahead and Export all all 50 of

these so the MacBook took 43 seconds to

do this whereas the X Elite took a

minute and 38 seconds it took more than

twice as long now in Lightroom the

mobile version like I said it is quicker

but it is still nowhere near the speed

of the MacBook Pro and now let's test

something that is fully optimized this

is devinci resolve and we have the new

version released for Windows arm this

can actually use the G GPU to its full

capability so there's no excuses here

and this is a a 4K Blackmagic raw file

with d noising so we're going to test

out the compute performance of the

graphics and let's just go ahead and run

this it is really tough it's going to

give us a frame rate and we'll see what

this thing can handle now on the MacBook

it's already playing we're getting 9 to

10 frames per second so um that is

pretty good good for this Bend chip and

on The XLE it was glitching up and now

started running we're getting 0 one two

frames per second back to one frame per

second back to two so as far as the

graphics Compu performance this is 5X

the performance on the MacBook that is

crazy you could see right there the

graphics is at 98

99% 100 it is fully optimized but that's

the performance we're getting all right

let's try some playback here's some

black magic raw footage uh with a l

applied and we're just going to see how

smoothly this plays on the Mac perfectly

smooth

optimized I'm not seeing really the

frame rate I can go into the color tab

here and it'll give me an actual frame

rate for it so we're playing back at 12

frames per second instead of 24 so this

thing's maxed out and it looks like our

energy saver just kicked in so we got

low enough that it decided hey let's cut

down the performance that's at

19% interesting let's go ahead and turn

this off and you guys can see our

Graphics is pretty much maxed out here

and we're not getting good performance

whereas on the Mac right now we're at

47% Graphics usage with perfect playback

46% right there you basically have 4X

the performance in terms of Graphics

compute 5x wow this is standard 4K

footage with a little bit of effects

applied and this should be pretty easy

because you have Hardware decoders we're

going to have Hardware encoders this is

like the optimal scenario as you guys

see they are both playing back perfectly

so it is handling your basic simple

footage um so that part of it at least

is good you're not going to be able to

stack a ton of effects or do some real

serious work but for basic 4K it is

playing it back and now let's render

this 5 minute project and this is going

to test out the speed of the built-in

encoders Apple they have an up updated

it from the M1 the M2 and now the M3

this is the new ex Elite and it looks

like we're running at about

29.5 about 30 FPS compared to about 90

on the MacBook with really old encoders

I believe for the M4 they finally have

updated it once M4 Max launch but let's

see how long this takes the macbook's

been done for a while here and looking

at the xlite our Graphics is Mac maxed

out the 3D engine is roughly half or so

for the effects but the decode is what

is maxing this out right here all right

guys we have a minute and 21 compared to

4 minutes and 12 seconds so the MacBook

is 3 times faster in these very simple

uh 4K video tasks and up to six times

faster for more complex things that is a

crazy difference that I was not EXP

expecting now I want to do a quick test

on this plugged in just to see if we

have a difference but first I want to go

ahead and take a look at our battery

life we turned off that energy mode as

soon as it kicked on when we were doing

the previous test so our MacBook here is

at 25% battery life remaining we've been

shooting for hours and hours doing all

of these tests and the surface is at

7% battery life so this is still good as

far as if you're comparing to the older

Intel based systems but the MacBook is

ahead uh in terms of overall efficiency

speed in the real world and battery life

when you're pushing it let's go ahead

and plug in this system and as you guys

can see it's showing 4 minutes 5 Seconds

4 3 it usually jumps up and down so

that's showing us that it's still going

to take the same time we were not

limited by any any sort of um on battery

performance any sort of caps um or even

the battery life being low that is just

the performance that you get so what is

our main conclusion what did we find in

these tests you guys wanted the X Elite

against the M3 Pro we did it and we saw

that in pretty much everything the 14in

with the bend weaker M3 Pro ended up

beating it out the only thing it didn't

is multicore in geekbench six but that

was literally a 1% difference but in all

the real world tasks optim unoptimized

or optimized the 14in is a better

machine now if you're willing to spend a

little bit more money than this surface

um laptop 7 you are getting a better

machine you're getting the speakers the

mini LED display you're getting the

better ports you're getting better

battery life and in terms of real world

performance especially for Creative

tasks especially for graphics and

Graphics tasks for compute performance

the difference is really big and with

that said with the regular M3 in this

machine even though some of the

benchmarks would have been lower the

real world performance tasks would have

still beat it out in terms of you know

blender in terms of the figma in terms

of video editing it is still faster on

that so we still really like the surface

lap 7 with the X Elite if you need a

Windows system we love this machine it

is a great value you get way better

battery life than you did with Intel um

it's nice it's a good machine and if you

use it for regular office tasks you know

use it for web browsing emails CPU

related tasks you want a nice screen

webcam it is a good machine but it is

not a Powerhouse for creatives or for

graphics the MacBook still wins andk

thankfully with those killer sales you

can pick one up for a great price but

you guys let me know what you thought

down in the comment section below go

ahead and click that Circle above cuz we

still have some great videos coming out

check out one of those videos right over

there this has been Max and I'll see you

in the next one
