My current Late 2019 MacBook Pro heats up like crazy and goes into thermal throttling whenever I'm doing wfh meeting with lots of video participants for a couple of hours. I really hope they dedicate some hardware for this type of use-case with plenty of sustained thermal headroom.
- jmrm 5y agoThe latests Intel-based Macbooks aren't well designed around thermals, and if the software you are using to have this meetings is Microsoft Teams, which at least in Windows eats a lot of memory and CPU resources (and I expect the same on macOS), it's even worse. I haven't tried yet, but AFAIK M1 Macbooks have a lot lower thermal issues, so that isn't a problem right now.
