Hahaha, i thought you get Rose Gold

I planning to sell off my 2015 Early 12 inch Macbook (Highest spec (customisation) with 1.3ghz)and upgrade to this...

but not sure is that enough to beat it?

I plan just to get the m5 core... any advise?

Haha. Rose gold will be outstanding. But I prefer space grey to match my space grey iPhone se.

2015 unless u sell really cheap gua, if else it may not be easy to sell off I guess.

I have seen review between the base 1.1 and 1.2 as well as 1.3 models.

So far according to review, it does not really make significant difference, maybe like 10 to 15%.

Unless u need the 512gb storage, else I guess no point to get any higher end model for the sake of cpu.

I planned to get the new MacBook pro when it is out as well so I buy the base modeled this 12-inch and keep the extra to pay for it.

Because i am not very expert into the Intel Core M processor...

So i wondering my 2015 1.3ghz Intel Core M vs 2016 Intel M5 1.2ghz, which one stand out.. If the newest model win, how much different?

Need to wait till review with geebench etc result then will know.

Sky lake processor upgrade is not the major improvement. Instead, the graphic card improvement will be more significant. It is totally minor minor difference between the 2015 two base models.

But I dun see a reason for u to upgrade from 2015 to 2016 one especially urs is the upgraded model.

I dun go for 512GB model as compared to base model it is sgd500 I would rather save it to buy a mid range MacBook pro that I can get two MacBook to use. Processor upgrade is always not worth it as the performance improvement is really really small that is not even noticeable. So sgd500 is mainly for the extra 256gb ssd.

Hi the first image, for the latest MacBook is which spec 1? 1.2 ghz m5 or 1.3 m7 1?

both 1.2GHz models. one is early 2015 one is early 2016.

Primate Labs founder John Poole also shared 32-bit Geekbench 3 results for the new 12-inch MacBook (1.2GHz configuration) that confirms around a 15% bump in CPU performance compared to the equivalent 2015 model. The new 12-inch MacBook earned a single-core score of 2,670 and a multi-core score of 5,252, compared to 2,303 and 4,621 for the last-generation model.

Aww still no i5 option and only 1 USB port
