If that's really happening, it'll be a short lived transference from my MBP13" for 5 months to a Surface Pro 4 for 4 months and again to a MBP13" 2016 lol.

But i'll be very skeptical on how they'll be able to deal with heat management in a similar 12" slim body type. Fitting a fan would be very cramped, plus it'll be doubtful if they can fit in heat sinks as well. Considering the 2015 13" version didn't handle heat too nicely, i'd be wary of stressing a slimmer 13" MBP...

Maybe they will use something like the dual pipe heatsink that is being used on Xperia Z5 and Samsung S7 edge.

Actually i changed one for a forummer here, his one is macbook air battery. Around rm300 smile.gif quite lasting jugak, can get 3-5hours.

Ori one is around rm750.

Yeah, ori 1 from Machine is RM 613 + RM 100 labour charge, and they don't sell the battery alone. too bad. probably I will order from OWC, the reviews averagely quite good, should can last at least 5 hours. $99 + $28 shipping.

Thanks bro. It's a core i5 2.9 13" with 8gb ram and 512gb storage. It's a totally whole new world as I have been using Windows only for the past 20 years biggrin.gif

When I connect the mbp to my external monitor which only support 1920x1080, the display is not as sharp as I would connect back to my old surface pro. Any idea why is it so?

2016 MacBook Pro should get the USB-C ports! After all, Apple was the one who invented it...

I don't think Apple "invented" USB C. They merely contributed to the USB C spec.

I have a question.

Would it be cheaper to buy Macs at Langkawi or Labuan (Tax Free zone) since import duties and GST are excluded from price.

Got a question here :

My rMBP I think have display issue (hardware). When turned on, its showing black screen but when connected to HDMI it works in Safe Boot mode.

I still haven't claim my screen for the staingate issue. So yesterday I sent to the service center in Megan Avenue II, and I told them I want to change my screen on the quality program for the staingate and I also told the display problem. She said if it's hardware problem, then you need to pay for the screen. If its not, then we change the screen for free.

Isn't the staingate issue different from the hardware problem? If they insist of replacing my screen for free, can I tell them to still fix the staingate issue (which will still resort to changing a new screen)? sad.gif

Ehhh...MBP is a computer so it's not a taxable item right? I think you save GST only.
