18 cores...

i think they revised price becos of currency?

before this how much ah the 256gb + 8gb no touch bar?

actually they can drop the mac pro since imac pro is already powerful plus more value for money.

if one is to buy mac pro for the same spec + buying a similar spec screen as imac. the cost is way more expensive than buying just imac alone.

imac is actually better value.

I feel damn sad for our country. MBP is so expensive now. I used to pay RM4k only and now the cheapest is RM5k+ to RM6k+.

I also can't recall what't the previous price..

GPU, CPU, and SSD Upgrade, never mind I can still wait for the next version.

but the iMac is really awesome... iMac Pro is a bit overpower for me d.. LOL

Can confirm the new MBP increase price already. Last time can get for 9.5k for Macbook Pro 15" with touchbar (education) but now 10.5k adui..

Previous mbp non tb is 6299 for 13"

I bought mine three months ago

iMac is quite value for money for the stunning display and excellent spec.

So instead of dropping prices for 2016 MBPs, Apple decided to increase the price for 2017 MPBs....sigh...

it is more of currency revised i guess.

there was one time during bolehland currency drops + GST implemented.

within 1 year price increased significantly for 2 times.

actually from skylake to kabe lake, the performance increase is very minor. it is more of power efficiency i think.

so actually does not miss anything for those who got the 2016 MBP.

but for those who haven't bought it, it is good to have new gen of processor and graphic card too.

yup.. this is true, as 2016MBPwTB the battery life is quite low actually... I'm using only with Outlook, Safari, Office, and some chat app.. the counter shows 3-4 hour of usage only..

That is very bad battery consumption. Mine similar usage on mbp w/o tb can reach 8-9h based on counter

ic. counter may not be accurate though, need to count manually for the timer to confirm the actual timing.

It is purely the exchange rate. In the announcement they maintained their prices in USD and even lowered the base entry MBP 13" to USD$1299 instead.

but technically the price never lower, since the entry base model is now 128gb only.

At this point, the maxed out XPS 13" seem like a better deal with 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD and better I/O at just RM7399.

The only thing stopping me from getting the Dell is MacOS. Tough choice.

user experience is totally difference.

even the SSD between the XPS and new MBP is totally on different classes also. the MBP can read and write at 2Gbps the XPS one is totally behind.

the kabe lake 13-inch MBP is having new graphic card as well.

The one in AppleMY website has been updated?
