Yeah. Really cheaper.

But a Super deal breAker is the weight. It goes back to 2015 15-inch that kind of weight. WTF.

And no wifi 6. Even new iPhones have it.

Speakers and mic look cool.

Noice, i was going to wait for it but went with Imac top tier + 128GB Ram instead.

I am glad they finally admitted thin is not the answer but all the problems for overheat. Love to see it's not longer thin obsessed piece of hair dryer tho the useless AF touch bar still there.

Plus Radeon Pro Vega 48 with 8GB, The 128GB ram of course not coming from Apple but 3rd party Samsung memory. That's the benefit of a desktop with snap in memory stick. 

I use it for Image, Video processing plus coding. The imac 27-inch 5k also drives a dual 4k 27inches setup.  An Imac drives 3 high res monitors with ease, i can't say about any MBPs, even this new one's fan would blow OFF like JET.

This is MacBook. So wifi is important. It does not even come with wired port for reason. And it should be the case also. It is for on the go unless iMac etc.

i do connect my macbook pro 13-inch 2017 to ethernet also since my usb-c dongle has it. but important reason is it is running 24x7 at home on my table which i did not even move.

if you are really carrying your macbook pro here and there, it is a different case.

although i pointed the wifi 6 on the new macbook pro. to be frank, for real life usage, the 802.11ac is still pretty sufficient.

dun forget also to support wifi 6, ur wifi router etc needs to support it also.

Once you used up most the ports, plus external high res monitors with mobile grade video card... things start to break apart, devices start to drop connections and slow down. External HDD for instance, you can't even play video. I open probably 30-50 browsers tabs when i code, my MBP couldn't handle it but the 128GB iMac just chilling... 

Yeah should be a worthy upgrade, just that for 13-inch MacBook Pro users, the 2kg weight can be a bummer.
browser tabs or loading big files need ram yes but likely not due to 128gb ram. what is the number of tabs or the size of big file to load at once in order to fully utilise 128gb ram? u will likely to hit the bottleneck by other factors such as processor etc.

And application itself also makes a difference, chrome or photoshop are known to be hunger for ram but it is due to the application too.

Similar application such as safari or Final Cut Pro x will utilise ram in a different ways too.

For most use cases for most people, I dun think they can fully utilise the 128gb ram due to all the factors that can bottleneck it. Even it can, it is likely nor for constant workload for the use cases. It is likely for niche group of people who know exactly what they are doing.

What app is this?
