It's great but not perfect

This a great app for editing, there are still some issues with exports and optimisations on the M3 chip that cause exports to fail. Some value changes don't get accepted and have to be double typed which can become frustraing. The audio playback sometimes cuts out and it has to be restared to get it working again. Its has crashedonce where I lost an entire project only once but I will stand behind this app always. Being unable to simply configure audio channels and vidoe codecs with the accuracy aof Premier Pro forces me to do final exports out of there for TV content but for simple interent content this the app you want to use.
Easy to use, powerful and worth it

I’m not a professional editor, but Final Cut Pro makes editing basic videos quick and enjoyable. I started with iMovie on my first MacBook Pro in 2018, and tried the trial version. Upgraded to FCP in 2024. I’ve also tried DaVinci Resolve, but the UI felt overwhelming at first — Final Cut Pro is way more user-friendly.What I like is that it’s not just easy to use, it’s also incredibly powerful. I use it to edit family travel videos and WhatsApp statuses on my M3 MacBook Pro, and it runs flawlessly. Definitely worth the price for anyone serious about video editing, even as a hobby.
FCPX remains untouched.

Final Cut Pro X is hands down the best video editing software I’ve ever used. Its intuitive interface makes complex editing feel effortless, while its lightning-fast performance saves hours of work. The magnetic timeline, advanced color grading tools, and seamless integration with Apple devices make it perfect for both beginners and professionals. From cinematic projects to quick social media edits, FCPX handles everything with precision and speed. If you want professional-quality results without compromise, this is the software to invest in. Simply unmatched!

Been using Final Cut on and off since 2014, along with Resolve and Premiere Pro. Adobe by far and large have best plugin support. However I have stopped using premiere pro the past 3 years.I always come back to Final Cut. The plugin support is not as good, not terrible but after all these years I wish Final Cut and Davinci Resolve were better supported by Plugin devs. In the end I will use either DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut to edit my lifes timeline when it comes to full production wrap - maybe Final Cut coz its a bit of a simpler UI and I bet I'll be pretty tired of editing by then.
