hi,
I planning to get the MacBook 2016.
I trying to search the Intel Core M vs normal core i3/i5/i7 processor.
I hardly find good comparison between this processor.
Intel core M is currently is more likely equal to which category of normal Core i processor?

in term of grapic performance, can it handle light gaming like Dota 2?

It is more than capable.

But new MacBook 13 inch and MacBook pro 13 and 15 inch are coming up. It is good to wait till then then decide.

I think 13 inch is a better screen size for everything if given choice.

I know the MacBook 13 is coming up but the pricing is even expensive than 12".. They probably plan to remove MBA line

It all depends on the destination.
Based on my previous experience, the parcel will definitely travel to KLIA, then Hong Kong/Shenzhen before reaching Penang.

Wow, bro, you go for rose gold. Please share some thought after you get it. Was cotemplating whether to get rose gold and space gray.
*
sure will share it...
but to me, since 2016 and 2015 model only can differentiate with only the colour and rose gold is unique that is why i prefer to go with rose gold rclxms.gif
