If not mistaken the indicative price was RM4,4xx previously now up to RM4,769 after GST. And I don't think I can get used to having just one port for everything so I'll skip

Becoz this lappy almost 5k price, will see review it 1st before make my decision

Might as well get the Macbook Air compared to this. Mayb in the future when it has 2 USB-C Ports or if USB-C ports become the norm only can consider the get it.

macbook rm4769 + usb converter rm299 + macbook casing rm300 = end up RM5,500+

What's nice about this Macbook is that you get 256GB storage. Pay the same amount for the latest Macbook Pro and you only get 128GB storage!

But you get more features, more ports, much better performance with only the sacrifice of portability.

Depend on personal usage, some may opt for Macbook Pro lowest model instead of this new Macbook.
I was considering to get this Macbook at first but end up ordering the Macbook Pro, as I feel too many compromises I'll need to make do for this Macbook. With the price we need to pay, it's not worth it (to me at least).

Personally this is the sweet spot laptop for me.

If i want performance, will go back to PC. Tablet is bit too small/slow for me
Annnnnnnnndddddddd it is GOLD in color!!!

Thing is you're not only sacrificing portability, but you're sacrificing storage space - by half!

But that said if I had to make a choice I'd probably choose the same as you. I can already picture it in my mind on how annoyed I would be coz of the lack of ports.

Anyone know when will be macbook pro available?

Pricing is quite premium

Indeed....
Pricing is the main issue here, based on internal news seems like Apple will charge USD250 for CPU upgrade to 5Y71 1.3GHz which is pure profit for Apple as Intel charges the same price for all Core M

Why use casing just naked and you will feel the exclusive of the macbook bro

tommorow sudah ada ka?

haha ... sorry ... i mean sleeve

if getting this new macbook, of course not aim for performance la ... memang just for style only la bro

oh, if sleeve okay then. Im using sleeve too. Don't be like me, spend hundreds for Speck casing, lastly don't use it. Like to use it naked, feel so premium

I only put moshi keyboard protector & moshi screen protector. For sleeve, RM 10 sleeve lol

Agree, the lack of ports also add to the inconvenience.

They need to sacrifices lot's of ports in order to make the macbook epic thin

Obviously it's not designed for everyone. Like MacWorld said, "it's meant to fly solo" .
