what I have here is a 2019 MacBook Pro what I have here is a 2019 MacBook Pro this is the 16-in model a couple years this is the 16-in model a couple years this is the 16-in model a couple years back this machine would have been an back this machine would have been an back this machine would have been an absolute dream of mine to buy and it was absolute dream of mine to buy and it was absolute dream of mine to buy and it was but at the price that it was when it but at the price that it was when it but at the price that it was when it came out impossible for me but now I I came out impossible for me but now I I came out impossible for me but now I I picked it up for about $400 and to picked it up for about $400 and to picked it up for about $400 and to specifically make this video and specifically make this video and specifically make this video and Benchmark Mac OS the default obviously Benchmark Mac OS the default obviously Benchmark Mac OS the default obviously operating system that comes with it operating system that comes with it operating system that comes with it windows and Linux I love doing these windows and Linux I love doing these windows and Linux I love doing these kind of Benchmark videos and this is the kind of Benchmark videos and this is the kind of Benchmark videos and this is the first time I've been able to kind of first time I've been able to kind of first time I've been able to kind of throw Mac OS in the bunch and to be throw Mac OS in the bunch and to be throw Mac OS in the bunch and to be quite Frank some of the results were quite Frank some of the results were quite Frank some of the results were surprising I did think Apple would do a surprising I did think Apple would do a surprising I did think Apple would do a lot better on their own Hardware but as lot better on their own Hardware but as lot better on their own Hardware but as you're going to see in this video uh you're going to see in this video uh you're going to see in this video uh it's it's definitely mixed but before I it's it's definitely mixed but before I it's it's definitely mixed but before I get into some raw numbers we're going to get into some raw numbers we're going to get into some raw numbers we're going to start with just the traditional boot start with just the traditional boot start with just the traditional boot speed test for this the timing started speed test for this the timing started speed test for this the timing started as soon as my finger was released from as soon as my finger was released from as soon as my finger was released from the power button and here we have a the power button and here we have a the power button and here we have a little side by side to see exactly when little side by side to see exactly when little side by side to see exactly when these things do fire up and actually these things do fire up and actually these things do fire up and actually Windows was the quickest to boot on this Windows was the quickest to boot on this Windows was the quickest to boot on this machine at 23 seconds followed up very machine at 23 seconds followed up very machine at 23 seconds followed up very closely by Ubuntu at 25 seconds and then closely by Ubuntu at 25 seconds and then closely by Ubuntu at 25 seconds and then finally after thinking about it for a finally after thinking about it for a finally after thinking about it for a while Mac OS booted up in 29 seconds while Mac OS booted up in 29 seconds while Mac OS booted up in 29 seconds this starting from a complete powered this starting from a complete powered this starting from a complete powered off State now I'm somebody who finds off State now I'm somebody who finds off State now I'm somebody who finds myself rebooting my systems more than I myself rebooting my systems more than I myself rebooting my systems more than I do shutting them down so for this test do shutting them down so for this test do shutting them down so for this test starting from when I clicked on restart starting from when I clicked on restart starting from when I clicked on restart we had a little switch up with obuntu we had a little switch up with obuntu we had a little switch up with obuntu booting at 29 seconds Windows rebooting booting at 29 seconds Windows rebooting booting at 29 seconds Windows rebooting at 31 seconds seconds and Mac OS at 31 seconds seconds and Mac OS at 31 seconds seconds and Mac OS rebooting at 36 seconds and I was quite rebooting at 36 seconds and I was quite rebooting at 36 seconds and I was quite surprised even with the reboot speed
-
surprised even with the reboot speed surprised even with the reboot speed that Mac OS didn't get closer or beat that Mac OS didn't get closer or beat that Mac OS didn't get closer or beat out one of these other operating systems out one of these other operating systems out one of these other operating systems especially considering it's their own especially considering it's their own especially

so we did the boot speed test now we need to did the boot speed test now we need to did the boot speed test now we need to actually get some background real quick actually get some background real quick actually get some background real quick of what's going on here Mac OS obviously of what's going on here Mac OS obviously of what's going on here Mac OS obviously pre-installed their operating system pre-installed their operating system pre-installed their operating system their Hardware life is good granted their Hardware life is good granted their Hardware life is good granted support for Mac OS on this machine is support for Mac OS on this machine is support for Mac OS on this machine is fading as it gets older and older ER so fading as it gets older and older ER so fading as it gets older and older ER so do note that and you probably notice in do note that and you probably notice in do note that and you probably notice in the boot speed test I'm running Windows the boot speed test I'm running Windows the boot speed test I'm running Windows 10 um Windows 11 isn't technically
-
10 um Windows 11 isn't technically 10 um Windows 11 isn't technically supported because through boot camp supported because through boot camp supported because through boot camp Windows 10 is the only option there are Windows 10 is the only option there are Windows 10 is the only option there are ways to get around that but it was kind ways to get around that but it was kind ways to get around that but it was kind of hacky and I had a little bit of of hacky and I had a little bit of of hacky and I had a little bit of trouble mostly because of Windows trouble mostly because of Windows trouble mostly because of Windows garbage implementation of the TPM garbage implementation of the TPM garbage implementation of the TPM drivers or the requirement for a TPM drivers or the requirement for a TPM drivers or the requirement for a TPM security chip now Linux Linux is a security chip now Linux Linux is a security chip now Linux Linux is a little bit more complicated because little bit more complicated because little bit more complicated because these machines have the t2 security chip these machines have the t2 security chip these machines have the t2 security chip which does make it a little bit which does make it a little bit which does make it a little bit difficult to inst install or get some of difficult to inst install or get some of difficult to inst install or get some of the drivers and firmware that you need the drivers and firmware that you need the drivers and firmware that you need to run Linux on these machines luckily to run Linux on these machines luckily to run Linux on these machines luckily there is a whole project called T2 Linux there is a whole project called T2 Linux there is a whole project called T2 Linux which actually has a few different dros which actually has a few different dros which actually has a few different dros that have a custom compiled kernel that have a custom compiled kernel that have a custom compiled kernel specifically for this Hardware as well specifically for this Hardware as well specifically for this Hardware as well as scripts and steps to go ahead and as scripts and steps to go ahead and as scripts and steps to go ahead and pull your firmware and drivers directly pull your firmware and drivers directly pull your firmware and drivers directly from Mac OS that's also installed on the from Mac OS that's also installed on the from Mac OS that's also installed on the system to your Linux partition so if you system to your Linux partition so if you system to your Linux partition so if you are interested if you have an old uh are interested if you have an old uh are interested if you have an old uh MacBook laying around I will link to MacBook laying around I will link to MacBook laying around I will link to this down below if you're interested and this down below if you're interested and this down below if you're interested and on this thing I didn't do any like on this thing I didn't do any like on this thing I didn't do any like special battery optimization for the special battery optimization for the special battery optimization for the Linux system and that kind of shows in Linux system and that kind of shows in Linux system and that kind of shows in my battery testing for this just like my battery testing for this just like my battery testing for this just like that tablet we looked at I just put a that tablet we looked at I just put a that tablet we looked at I just put a full screen window of the default web full screen window of the default web full screen window of the default web browser Edge on Windows Firefox on Linux browser Edge on Windows Firefox on Linux browser Edge on Windows Firefox on Linux and Safari on Mac OS and this is where and Safari on Mac OS and this is where and Safari on Mac OS and this is where we had a very large kind of Mac OS we had a very large kind of Mac OS we had a very large kind of Mac OS Victory their battery optimization is Victory their battery optimization is Victory their battery optimization is much better than the other operating much better than the other operating much better than the other operating systems I took score at the 100 to 50% systems I took score at the 100 to 50% systems I took score at the 100 to 50% 40 30 10 25 and these are the minutes of 40 30 10 25 and these are the minutes of 40 30 10 25 and these are the minutes of how long it took so going from 100 to how long it took so going from 100 to how long it took so going from 100 to 50% we had over an hour better Mac OS
-
50% we had over an hour better Mac OS 50% we had over an hour better Mac OS battery life compared to Windows and battery life compared to Windows and battery life compared to Windows and Linux just did not do that good less Linux just did not do that good less Linux just did not do that good less than an hour it took to go from 100 to than an hour it took to go from 100 to than an hour it took to go from 100 to 50% and going from 100 to 5% Linux 50% and going from 100 to 5% Linux 50% and going from 100 to 5% Linux didn't even put out a whole 2 hours of didn't even put out a whole 2 hours of didn't even put out a whole 2 hours of battery life because we're at 97 minutes battery life because we're at 97 minutes battery life because we're at 97 minutes there Mac OS had just about a hour there Mac OS had just about a hour there Mac OS had just about a hour battery life compared to Windows going battery life compared to Windows going battery life compared to Windows going from zero or from 100 to 5% for this from zero or from 100 to 5% for this from zero or from 100 to 5% for this test I set at 100% brightness about 25% test I set at 100% brightness about 25% test I set at 100% brightness about 25% uh audio output I could probably get a uh audio output I could probably get a uh audio output I could probably get a little bit better battery out of Linux little bit better battery out of Linux little bit better battery out of Linux if I did some like extra work if I did some like extra work if I did some like extra work optimization kind of played around with optimization kind of played around with optimization kind of played around with it a bit but with how big the it a bit but with how big the it a bit but with how big the differences are it would probably still differences are it would probably still differences are it would probably still lose now from there we loaded up lose now from there we loaded up lose now from there we loaded up geekbench 6 this is a pretty standard geekbench 6 this is a pretty standard geekbench 6 this is a pretty standard test that I run quite a bit which test that I run quite a bit which test that I run quite a bit which geekbench is awesome because not only do geekbench is awesome because not only do geekbench is awesome because not only do we get kind of General single and we get kind of General single and we get kind of General single and multi-core scores but I'll link to the multi-core scores but I'll link to the multi-core scores but I'll link to the full results where you can see kind of full results where you can see kind of full results where you can see kind of specific C atory or specific tests that specific C atory or specific tests that specific C atory or specific tests that were run to get to this score and in were run to get to this score and in were run to get to this score and in this case we have a auntu victory Linux this case we have a auntu victory Linux this case we have a auntu victory Linux did perform better in geekbench it beat did perform better in geekbench it beat did perform better in geekbench it beat out Mac OS by just about 400 points and out Mac OS by just about 400 points and out Mac OS by just about 400 points and beat out windows by just about 1,000 beat out windows by just about 1,000 beat out windows by just about 1,000 points on multi-core score single was a points on multi-core score single was a points on multi-core score single was a little tighter especially when you little tighter especially when you little tighter especially when you compare Mac OS and windows as that's compare Mac OS and windows as that's compare Mac OS and windows as that's kind of within the margin of error on kind of within the margin of error on kind of within the margin of error on single core score but auntu did have single core score but auntu did have single core score but auntu did have nearly 100 Point advantage over the nearly 100 Point advantage over the nearly 100 Point advantage over the other two so at least on this test other two so at least on this test other two so at least on this test Ubuntu gives a really the Kernel's Ubuntu gives a really the Kernel's Ubuntu gives a really the Kernel's optimized pretty well for this Hardware optimized pretty well for this Hardware optimized pretty well for this Hardware from there I tested out Nova bench now from there I tested out Nova bench now from there I tested out Nova bench now there are less kind of individual tests
-
there are less kind of individual tests there are less kind of individual tests ran during this process for these ran during this process for these ran during this process for these specific categories but this one gives specific categories but this one gives specific categories but this one gives us a whole General look at our computer us a whole General look at our computer us a whole General look at our computer including CPU GPU memory and storage including CPU GPU memory and storage including CPU GPU memory and storage scores and here Mac OS still did not scores and here Mac OS still did not scores and here Mac OS still did not well while Windows actually took the well while Windows actually took the well while Windows actually took the advantage over Linux by about 300 points advantage over Linux by about 300 points advantage over Linux by about 300 points but this was really surprising how Mac but this was really surprising how Mac but this was really surprising how Mac OS just did not perform looking at the OS just did not perform looking at the OS just did not perform looking at the GPU score this is a Mac OS victory at GPU score this is a Mac OS victory at GPU score this is a Mac OS victory at 225 versus Windows at 210 and Ubuntu did 225 versus Windows at 210 and Ubuntu did 225 versus Windows at 210 and Ubuntu did the worst in this test at 200 I'm going the worst in this test at 200 I'm going the worst in this test at 200 I'm going to skip memory real quick and go to the to skip memory real quick and go to the to skip memory real quick and go to the storage score this is the actual kind of storage score this is the actual kind of storage score this is the actual kind of U read WR speeds on the root file U read WR speeds on the root file U read WR speeds on the root file partition here and Mac OS did win in partition here and Mac OS did win in partition here and Mac OS did win in this one at 280 versus Windows at 270 this one at 280 versus Windows at 270 this one at 280 versus Windows at 270 and Ubuntu at 256 Now Memory score this and Ubuntu at 256 Now Memory score this and Ubuntu at 256 Now Memory score this had a uh weird thing go on where Mac OS had a uh weird thing go on where Mac OS had a uh weird thing go on where Mac OS lost this one just barely to windows at lost this one just barely to windows at lost this one just barely to windows at 267 versus 274 but for some reason 267 versus 274 but for some reason 267 versus 274 but for some reason Ubuntu scored so high that I didn't Ubuntu scored so high that I didn't Ubuntu scored so high that I didn't really believe it scoring 423 granted really believe it scoring 423 granted really believe it scoring 423 granted granted I am a Linux Fanboy if I wish I granted I am a Linux Fanboy if I wish I granted I am a Linux Fanboy if I wish I could just take this result for what it could just take this result for what it could just take this result for what it is and say whoa but to kind of test this is and say whoa but to kind of test this is and say whoa but to kind of test this out I loaded up a tool called sysbench out I loaded up a tool called sysbench out I loaded up a tool called sysbench which has its own memory test and this which has its own memory test and this which has its own memory test and this is compatible with Linux and Mac OS it's is compatible with Linux and Mac OS it's is compatible with Linux and Mac OS it's it's Unix there's a lot of cross it's Unix there's a lot of cross it's Unix there's a lot of cross compatibility there and for this I did compatibility there and for this I did compatibility there and for this I did CIS bench test memory threads for run CIS bench test memory threads for run CIS bench test memory threads for run and we could see some of the results and we could see some of the results and we could see some of the results here looking at the transfer speed here looking at the transfer speed here looking at the transfer speed Ubuntu is still in the lead but not at Ubuntu is still in the lead but not at Ubuntu is still in the lead but not at the margins that we saw at the previous
-
the margins that we saw at the previous the margins that we saw at the previous test so I can still call the memory test so I can still call the memory test so I can still call the memory performance a definite uh Linux winner performance a definite uh Linux winner performance a definite uh Linux winner but it's not as dramatic as we saw in but it's not as dramatic as we saw in but it's not as dramatic as we saw in Nova bench now C bench they don't have a Nova bench now C bench they don't have a Nova bench now C bench they don't have a version 4 Linux but I did want to kind version 4 Linux but I did want to kind version 4 Linux but I did want to kind of test Mac and uh Windows against each of test Mac and uh Windows against each of test Mac and uh Windows against each other in this because Center bench is other in this because Center bench is other in this because Center bench is another really common benchmarking tool another really common benchmarking tool another really common benchmarking tool this one being the R23 version and in this one being the R23 version and in this one being the R23 version and in this one Macos actually did win the CPU this one Macos actually did win the CPU this one Macos actually did win the CPU score which this is like a kind of score which this is like a kind of score which this is like a kind of graphical renderer using the CPU so it graphical renderer using the CPU so it graphical renderer using the CPU so it really depends on what the operating really depends on what the operating really depends on what the operating system is trying to do and which is system is trying to do and which is system is trying to do and which is where we see differences in these scores where we see differences in these scores where we see differences in these scores because it is a pretty dramatic because it is a pretty dramatic because it is a pretty dramatic difference we have 9,000 for Mac OS and difference we have 9,000 for Mac OS and difference we have 9,000 for Mac OS and just under 8,000 for Windows a whole just under 8,000 for Windows a whole just under 8,000 for Windows a whole th000 point difference being out of the th000 point difference being out of the th000 point difference being out of the margin error so for graphics rendering margin error so for graphics rendering margin error so for graphics rendering and things like that using that Intel and things like that using that Intel and things like that using that Intel CPU Mac OS seems to be doing pretty good CPU Mac OS seems to be doing pretty good CPU Mac OS seems to be doing pretty good now speaking of Graphics I did run some now speaking of Graphics I did run some now speaking of Graphics I did run some graphics tests there's not very many graphics tests there's not very many graphics tests there's not very many games or anything like that that are games or anything like that that are games or anything like that that are cross- compatible on all three that I at cross- compatible on all three that I at cross- compatible on all three that I at least feel like playing and testing but least feel like playing and testing but least feel like playing and testing but going back to geekbench they do actually going back to geekbench they do actually going back to geekbench they do actually have a GPU test that you can run this have a GPU test that you can run this have a GPU test that you can run this one it depended on the platform what one it depended on the platform what one it depended on the platform what tests were actually available so you tests were actually available so you tests were actually available so you could see here for example on Ubuntu the could see here for example on Ubuntu the could see here for example on Ubuntu the only thing we could run is the Vulcan only thing we could run is the Vulcan only thing we could run is the Vulcan test Mac OS the only thing was metal test Mac OS the only thing was metal test Mac OS the only thing was metal which I think is still Vulcan but I'm which I think is still Vulcan but I'm which I think is still Vulcan but I'm not 100% on that we could run open CL on not 100% on that we could run open CL on not 100% on that we could run open CL on both windows and Mac OS when it comes to both windows and Mac OS when it comes to both windows and Mac OS when it comes to opencl Windows absolutely destroyed Mac opencl Windows absolutely destroyed Mac opencl Windows absolutely destroyed Mac OS when it comes to Vulcan Ubuntu godamn OS when it comes to Vulcan Ubuntu godamn OS when it comes to Vulcan Ubuntu godamn scoring scoring scoring 46,000 so rather impressive score and
-
46,000 so rather impressive score and 46,000 so rather impressive score and Mac OS on metal scored 37,000 so if you Mac OS on metal scored 37,000 so if you Mac OS on metal scored 37,000 so if you take all these numbers Linux is the take all these numbers Linux is the take all these numbers Linux is the clear winner at 46 now another kind of clear winner at 46 now another kind of clear winner at 46 now another kind of cross compatible benchmarking tool is cross compatible benchmarking tool is cross compatible benchmarking tool is Valley Benchmark this is one of the few Valley Benchmark this is one of the few Valley Benchmark this is one of the few ones that works specifically with this ones that works specifically with this ones that works specifically with this version of Mac OS windows and Linux and version of Mac OS windows and Linux and version of Mac OS windows and Linux and in this one we have a pretty good kind in this one we have a pretty good kind in this one we have a pretty good kind of distribution here Mac OS and openg GL of distribution here Mac OS and openg GL of distribution here Mac OS and openg GL dominated well not dominated about 400 dominated well not dominated about 400 dominated well not dominated about 400 Point difference so enough where it's Point difference so enough where it's Point difference so enough where it's out of a margin of error against windows out of a margin of error against windows out of a margin of error against windows and uh Ubuntu which I do have to know and uh Ubuntu which I do have to know and uh Ubuntu which I do have to know Ubuntu was the lowest score out of this Ubuntu was the lowest score out of this Ubuntu was the lowest score out of this so do note that but then if you go ahead so do note that but then if you go ahead so do note that but then if you go ahead and throw a direct X test which Windows and throw a direct X test which Windows and throw a direct X test which Windows just always does kind of better at uh it just always does kind of better at uh it just always does kind of better at uh it beats everything at beats everything at beats everything at 3,800 almost 3,900 versus MAC os's open 3,800 almost 3,900 versus MAC os's open 3,800 almost 3,900 versus MAC os's open GL score of 3500 and nowadays even GL score of 3500 and nowadays even GL score of 3500 and nowadays even myself I find just about almost myself I find just about almost myself I find just about almost everything maybe 90% of everything I do everything maybe 90% of everything I do everything maybe 90% of everything I do is within a web browser so that is is within a web browser so that is is within a web browser so that is almost kind of the most important thing almost kind of the most important thing almost kind of the most important thing that you need to look at and for this I that you need to look at and for this I that you need to look at and for this I tested uh two different browsers on all tested uh two different browsers on all tested uh two different browsers on all the operating systems and Safari on Mac the operating systems and Safari on Mac the operating systems and Safari on Mac OS we have Firefox Edge and Safari and OS we have Firefox Edge and Safari and OS we have Firefox Edge and Safari and the first test we ran was Bas Mark web the first test we ran was Bas Mark web the first test we ran was Bas Mark web 3.0 within Mac OS itself Firefox scored 3.0 within Mac OS itself Firefox scored 3.0 within Mac OS itself Firefox scored the best even beating out Safari by just the best even beating out Safari by just the best even beating out Safari by just under 100 points Edge did not do very under 100 points Edge did not do very under 100 points Edge did not do very well at all and then in Windows Firefox well at all and then in Windows Firefox well at all and then in Windows Firefox and Edge was a near tie with a slight and Edge was a near tie with a slight and Edge was a near tie with a slight Edge advantage and in Ubuntu it was Edge advantage and in Ubuntu it was Edge advantage and in Ubuntu it was flipped with Firefox getting the
-
flipped with Firefox getting the flipped with Firefox getting the advantage now looking at it the other advantage now looking at it the other advantage now looking at it the other way Ubuntu was a clear Victor when it way Ubuntu was a clear Victor when it way Ubuntu was a clear Victor when it comes to uh Bas Mark web 3.0 scoring comes to uh Bas Mark web 3.0 scoring comes to uh Bas Mark web 3.0 scoring average 1300 versus just about 1,00 on average 1300 versus just about 1,00 on average 1300 versus just about 1,00 on Windows and kind of a net average of 800 Windows and kind of a net average of 800 Windows and kind of a net average of 800 points throughout the Mac OS operating points throughout the Mac OS operating points throughout the Mac OS operating system and then another browser system and then another browser system and then another browser benchmark test which is one of my benchmark test which is one of my benchmark test which is one of my favorites because it does a lot of uh favorites because it does a lot of uh favorites because it does a lot of uh tests that kind of more relate to actual tests that kind of more relate to actual tests that kind of more relate to actual use cases whether that be like uploading use cases whether that be like uploading use cases whether that be like uploading receipts uh working in spreadsheets receipts uh working in spreadsheets receipts uh working in spreadsheets things like that doing some photo things like that doing some photo things like that doing some photo manipulation and that is web manipulation and that is web manipulation and that is web xpt4 results on this one were a little xpt4 results on this one were a little xpt4 results on this one were a little bit tighter than we saw in the previous bit tighter than we saw in the previous bit tighter than we saw in the previous one with the best performer out of all one with the best performer out of all one with the best performer out of all of these being Firefox on Ubuntu with a of these being Firefox on Ubuntu with a of these being Firefox on Ubuntu with a score of 2115 and the worst performer score of 2115 and the worst performer score of 2115 and the worst performer which was a huge shock to me and I did which was a huge shock to me and I did which was a huge shock to me and I did run these tests multiple times under run these tests multiple times under run these tests multiple times under multiple environments this is kind of multiple environments this is kind of multiple environments this is kind of like the averages that I got and that like the averages that I got and that like the averages that I got and that was Edge on Windows 10 scored 185 the was Edge on Windows 10 scored 185 the was Edge on Windows 10 scored 185 the lowest score only second to uh Firefox lowest score only second to uh Firefox lowest score only second to uh Firefox on Windows which scored 190 so Linux is on Windows which scored 190 so Linux is on Windows which scored 190 so Linux is a Powerhouse at web browsing which I a Powerhouse at web browsing which I a Powerhouse at web browsing which I mean if everything you do is in a web mean if everything you do is in a web mean if everything you do is in a web browser you might as well try out Linux browser you might as well try out Linux browser you might as well try out Linux I mean it's definitely worth the I mean it's definitely worth the I mean it's definitely worth the experiment so those were the results you experiment so those were the results you experiment so those were the results you can see here I have a GitHub page that can see here I have a GitHub page that can see here I have a GitHub page that has just about everything on it all the has just about everything on it all the has just about everything on it all the different tests the graphs fun stuff so different tests the graphs fun stuff so different tests the graphs fun stuff so I'll link to this down below if you want I'll link to this down below if you want I'll link to this down below if you want to and if you go in here for example to and if you go in here for example to and if you go in here for example geek bch 6 if I click on one of these geek bch 6 if I click on one of these geek bch 6 if I click on one of these results it will take you directly to results it will take you directly to results it will take you directly to that result page so then you can better that result page so then you can better that result page so then you can better see some of the results we got on these

see some of the results we got on these see some of the results we got on these specific tests within the whole specific tests within the whole specific tests within the whole Benchmark such as photo library PDF Benchmark such as photo library PDF Benchmark such as photo library PDF renderer HTML 5 browser so you can kind renderer HTML 5 browser so you can kind renderer HTML 5 browser so you can kind of compare those yourself if you want to of compare those yourself if you want to of compare those yourself if you want to if you're looking for a real specific if you're looking for a real specific if you're looking for a real specific score on a specific test now in the near score on a specific test now in the near score on a specific test now in the near future when possible I want want to do future when possible I want want to do future when possible I want want to do these same tests on Apple silicon which these same tests on Apple silicon which these same tests on Apple silicon which is a dream it it truly is wonderful I'm is a dream it it truly is wonderful I'm is a dream it it truly is wonderful I'm not trying to S too hard but I've talked not trying to S too hard but I've talked not trying to S too hard but I've talked about this in the past getting like a M1 about this in the past getting like a M1 about this in the past getting like a M1 MacBook Air is a wonderful value and MacBook Air is a wonderful value and MacBook Air is a wonderful value and even this I'm recording this on the uh even this I'm recording this on the uh even this I'm recording this on the uh new Mac Mini the M4 Mac Mini just the new Mac Mini the M4 Mac Mini just the new Mac Mini the M4 Mac Mini just the base model it's a phenomenal computer base model it's a phenomenal computer base model it's a phenomenal computer switching away from Intel and working on switching away from Intel and working on switching away from Intel and working on their own CPUs is one of the best things their own CPUs is one of the best things their own CPUs is one of the best things Apple has ever done and these tests kind Apple has ever done and these tests kind Apple has ever done and these tests kind of show that and do subscribe because I of show that and do subscribe because I of show that and do subscribe because I will be getting the version of Linux will be getting the version of Linux will be getting the version of Linux that works with these m1's or the Apple that works with these m1's or the Apple that works with these m1's or the Apple silicon CPUs and testing it up against silicon CPUs and testing it up against silicon CPUs and testing it up against at least Macos and maybe windows I have at least Macos and maybe windows I have at least Macos and maybe windows I have to look a little bit more into uh how to to look a little bit more into uh how to to look a little bit more into uh how to get that installed so again everything I get that installed so again everything I get that installed so again everything I mentioned will be down below if there's mentioned will be down below if there's mentioned will be down below if there's some benchmarks or tests that's cross some benchmarks or tests that's cross some benchmarks or tests that's cross compatible on everything that you wish I compatible on everything that you wish I compatible on everything that you wish I would have included uh please let me would have included uh please let me would have included uh please let me know down below I'm going to be doing know down below I'm going to be doing know down below I'm going to be doing more of these kind of Benchmark tests so more of these kind of Benchmark tests so more of these kind of Benchmark tests so I want to get a good kind of layout of I want to get a good kind of layout of I want to get a good kind of layout of tools to continue to do this and with tools to continue to do this and with tools to continue to do this and with all that I do hope you have an all that I do hope you have an all that I do hope you have an absolutely beautiful day and goodbye
Summary
This analysis benchmarks a 2019 MacBook Pro, comparing macOS with Windows and Linux by testing boot and reboot speeds. Surprisingly, Windows was the fastest to boot, followed by Ubuntu, with macOS lagging behind despite running on its native hardware. The practical takeaway is that even on Apple's own hardware, macOS's performance in boot times isn't as strong as its competitors.
