      Whenever you get your hands on the 13" Macbook Retina the $1300 one, can you compare that and the 13" Macbook Air (the one in this video)? Thanks!

    Getting Apple products is half the fun; the other half is unboxing. It's really satisfying.

    • @TehMC

      Agreed. Something about unboxing Apple products make me so excited, unlike other products that make the box look dull and boring.

    • @TehMC
      @TehMC 8 років тому +15

      LeThayle You're an idiot. Macs are not made for hardcore gaming. They are professional laptops, made for people with businesses, or even a UA-cam channel. They are great for video editing, school, light gaming, and they last a very long time. Windows has a shit OS, always gets a ton of viruses, and in 3-4 years your Windows laptop becomes crap because of how slow it gets. A Mac however, will still be speedy, Sure the price is steep, and I had to save up a lot to get one, but it is an investment, one that I don't regret.

      Krazi Borscht the 12 inch is something else. It's like a luxury good, not very adequate, targetted for low tier activity but using it would make the experience unforgettable and addictive. It's like an impressive casual computer. My kind of computer. For work, my company already gave me a work laptop, so at home when I just want to relax, this 12 inch would be perfect for casual computing after work.

    Just got the 13 inch model this week and it is my first apple product of any kind. Got to say, moving from a acer and lenovo laptop to this, it's just night and day. The build quality, battery life.. amazing. I was worried about 2 things: the screen and the OS. For a 13 inch laptop, the screen is just fine, although retina wouldn't hurt. The os has really surprised me, i was expecting to have a bit of a learning curve, but after one day, I feel incredibly comfortable with it! All in all, fantastic buy at this point!

    I'm typing this on the new i7 2015 13" Macbook Air w/upgraded processor/ram/storage. I changed from the 2012 Air that had the same upgrades. I am really happy I made this purchase. The biggest reason was simply that my old Air had become old and worn down. But the 2.2Ghz/3.2GhzTurbo processor just blazes! I run Adobe Photoshop without any lag at all.
    In my opinion the Macbook Air is the perfect computer. Yes, the screen is still just 1440px wide, but the net still is not ready for Retina displays. The pixel doubling of Macbook Pros makes 85% of the websites look fuzzy. For me, this screen is beautiful and bright. Retina displays will be necessary in 2-4 years, but we're not there yet.
    This computer is blazing fast. Amazing build quality! Never breaks (vs. my Lenovo which was always loose). Amazing keyboard, trackpad. Works great for web/photoediting/videoediting. And it weighs just *2 pounds*.

    I've had the 13 inch for over a year, I switched from the 11, and I love it and prefer it over the 11. That being said, that 11 inch is one nice little computer! So compact but still every bit as powerful. If I didn't have my iPad Air, it's probably the one I'd go for. But I still prefer to have both the iPad and MacBook Air, as they serve two separate but nice functions.

  • @richarddcrossley
    @richarddcrossley 7 років тому +5

    I own a MacBook retina 2016 now but one of the advantages I liked about the 11 inch is the 16:9 ratio. I like watching videos on it because you get no black border unlike all other Apple products...just feels more immersive! I also preferred the wider display and better DPI vs the 13 because often I use two documents side by side. Having said all that the 13 inch is the better option if it is going to be your only computer but I love the portability of the 11 inch...just wish I'd have bought the 8GB model now. I tried to go back to Mavericks but it seems so dated now and can still just about get away with 4GB as I have the 256GB Air.

    I happen to play with this at Best Buy today out curiosity but I must say that I was blown away by the quality of its speakers. Absolutely the best sounding speakers I have ever listened to.

      +SevenCoolChicks Actually that was a mistake and I didn't realise it. It's been a while and so I don't recall the actual words I meant to use. I currently don't have any investment in Appl's ecosystem and so the possibility of me switching is close to zero. That said I do admire Apple's attention to detail and that is a great for the Apple fans.

    Still have one laying around the house, used it for 7 years! Graduated both HS and University w it, as well as first semester of MA. Still perfectly usable for daily tasks and my family members use it with no issues. Battery life is ofc so bad at this point and looking at its screen is really hard after getting used to m2 air. Overall, it was an amazing laptop in 2015, definitely worth the money.

  • @EPS5000

    I don't understand the naming of the new MacBook at all. It's thinner and lighter than the Air, but it's not an Air.... (the 12" Retina MacBook that comes in three colors)

    • @DetroitBORG
      @DetroitBORG  9 років тому +5

      Yeah, it also seems like the MBA is being squeezed from both ends now with the MBP getting thinner and cheaper, although I don't think it's going away anytime soon. I think much depends on how the MacBook does, we may have seen the last update to the MBA.

    • @RareMade
      @RareMade 9 років тому

      Theyre possibly gonna go thinner if they make another Air and the new one is just a refresh to a very old Macbook(plastic ones that are black and white) the new Macbook also seems like a Chromebook since you cant really do Ps and stuff on it. MKBHD said with its specs its better for browsing and could be good for a student. I just hope if you cant go thinner with Macbook Pro's for now that they just give you similar color options

    • @DetroitBORG
      @DetroitBORG  9 років тому +5

      friður We may be surprised by the performance of the new MacBook, even with video editing. But it's hard to recommend the MacBook as a primary computer to get real work done. It's a costly but fashionable computer that excites people and there is nothing wrong with that I think.

    • @EPS5000
      @EPS5000 9 років тому

      friður The MacBook line has always been kind of weird. Apple did make one aluminum MacBook, then the following year decided to call it the 13" MacBook Pro and killed the MacBook line, only to bring it back the following year in plastic again. Then they killed it again. And now it looks like it's back again, aluminum and comes in three colors. And whichever model you get, add $80 to it for the ability to use USB and still charge the device at the same time, or $20 for the ability to use USB but not be able to charge the device at the same time.

    8:29 - Apple said in the keynote that only the 13-inch Air would have SSD performance that is "twice as fast," thanks to the new Samsung M.2 PCIe x4 SSDs. The 11-inch does not receive that feature, so if you really want fast disk performance, you should go with the 13-inch. Every 13-inch should have that spec, but none of the 11-inch models do.
