I upgraded from the best possible 2019 16" MacBook Pro to the latest and greatest 2023 16" M3 MacBook Pro. The M3 is amazing. I love how fast Archicad 27 runs on it, and the battery life is incredible. I measure houses and build Archicad models at the same time. With my old laptop, I couldn't go long on-site in Archicad with the computer unplugged. Now, with my M3, I can go for hours. It's incredible.
