If you're looking for high performance, especially for intensive tasks like video editing or software development, the Apple MacBook Pro 16" (Late 2019) excels and also offers a high-resolution display with great color accuracy. However, it comes with a premium price tag. On the other hand, the Jumper 16" Laptop is more budget-friendly and can handle general use such as web browsing, office applications, and media consumption. Remember, the MacBook Pro will likely have a better build quality and a more robust software ecosystem with macOS, but you'll sacrifice portability due to its weight and size. Conversely, the Jumper is likely lighter and offers basic functionality at a lower cost. Battery life is typically superior on the MacBook Pro, so if you're frequently on the move and need to work for extended periods without charging, that's a significant advantage. Choose the MacBook Pro for demanding applications and better overall quality if budget allows, or the Jumper for more casual, cost-effective computing. Give Feedback

The Apple MacBook Pro 16 (Late 2019) is good for general use, while the Jumper 16" Laptop is poor.
The Apple MacBook Pro 16 (Late 2019) excels in general use due to its powerful CPU, substantial RAM, high-quality screen, and long battery life, while the Jumper 16" Laptop's lower-end CPU, limited RAM, poorer screen quality and shorter battery life make it less suitable for demanding tasks. Despite both having similar portability, the MacBook Pro's superior characteristics across very important factors provide a smoother and more reliable user experience.

The Apple MacBook Pro 16 (Late 2019) is only fair for gaming and AI, while the Jumper 16" Laptop is poor.
The Apple MacBook Pro 16 (Late 2019) has a fairly capable AMD Radeon Pro GPU, which offers better 3D performance, but its operating system limits gaming options since many popular games do not run on macOS. On the other hand, the Jumper 16" Laptop's Intel UHD Graphics, associated with its weaker processor, is less suited for gaming and 3D tasks, leading to poor performance in those areas.

"The Apple MacBook Pro 16 2023: M2 Max challenges GeForce RTX 3080 Ti. The new MacBook Pro 16 2023 with the M2 Max SoC is the most powerful laptop Apple has on sale right now. While we do not get the expected performance and efficiency improvements from completely new 3 nm chips, which we expected ahead of the launch, the 2023 model is still a solid update. The CPU of the M2 Max can be up to 20 % faster than the old model and we also see an advantage of 25-30 % for the GPU with 38 cores. However, both components also consume more power, so the efficiency did not change that much under maximum load."
