any powerbank can work with the new macbook. I never bring the power brick now. cable damn long.

shoot, i was planning to pick up one next month but the new price now is definitely a let down.

Hey if you're interested. I'm selling mine if you're interested. Mine is space grey base model. dbrand Carbon fiber skin applied on it. It's only 4 month old. pm me if you're interested. or directly whatsapp me at 0172143833. I'll send you more pictures upon request.

core M processors are good low power CPUs but for me I render and edit a lot. Rendering a simple 6min 4K video takes crazy long. It's not a fair comparison but I'd still say it anyway. My 13" Macbook Pro does the same 4K render for about 28 minutes long sometimes 36 depending on what codec I render. the MacBook does it in 1 hour to 1.5 hours. And I do this for almost 5 times a week. I have to wait so long for it to render. But the only good thing is that during the live rendering playback doesn't lag. Seems good enough to me at first. But not really feeling it. Hence, I'm selling mine. Moving up to the big guns.

Core m is not for graphic work, u should buy rmbp at first

at first I wanted to edit on the go because at the time i travel a lot. editing is goddamn horrible. I sold off my rmbp 13" for this. lol now im selling this to get rmbp 15"

I think u should wait apple release skylake processor

Hmm. Really? Ill try to hold off on it first 😂

if got incentive then u definitely should upgrade. best to get Macbook not MBA. As a student, Macbook is perfect.

I agree that you should wait too for Skylake too. It should be coming out before end of this year..

As which to say, in fact that I am a student actually hahaha. I just do a lot of on subject and off subject edits. I have no objection of waiting on Skylake. But the problem is, Apple already made a refresh this year. I don't see the reason why they would release another refresh 6 months later. That'll piss everyone who bought the early 2015 models off.

At that time, Intel had already announced that Skylake will be released on 2H of 2015 and late deliveries of Broadwell will not affect skylake because they are on a different development cycle. Hence, the rMBP that I bought this year is also called Early 2015. I am sure they would have another refreshed with Late 2015 later this year. They have done so in previous cycles. Their delay is probably to clear out stock. The Skylakes that will be used for both 13" and 15" are already out too.

Fair enough. Wait it is. Plus the revised price is crazy. Wanted to buy the 15" before everything. But Apple Malaysia listed it as out of stock. lel and it turns out it's 11k now. lol

I think nope, should be next year. Maybe March ..

dun think will release so early, maybe next year march.

does 1.1 to 1.3 makes significant difference in performance.

i dont know coz im decided to pick base model 1.1
This is becoz my everyday usage not so much using that capabilities and i think 1.1 enough for me

i think the deciding factor between the two Macbook model will be the storage i guess. 256 vs 512.

256 should be sufficient if this is a secondary laptop. Price is quite steep across different storage size.

but 256 is a minimum size required for macbook i guess if one needs it to run bootcamp. good that macbook comes with 256 minimum by default.

hope the 2nd gen of the macbook will be even better as i am looking forward to buy one (space grey).

I saw Harvey Norman page shows the price for 8GB, 512GB, 1.2 only RM5829....wonder why so cheap, display set?
