Instead of making life easier for the user, as Steve Jobs once advocated, Apple seems to be doing the opposite. Take, for example, the MacBook line - now there are three varieties of it (ultra-thin 12-inch, thin Air and powerful Pro), so it is quite difficult for a potential buyer to figure out which laptop to choose. If you are not well versed in the Apple product line or cannot make a choice, we will try to help you with this.

First, let's define the characteristics of Apple laptops:

  • MacBook is a 12-inch ultra-thin laptop (thickness varies from 0.35 cm to 1.31 cm), weight 0.92 kg.
  • MacBook Air is a 13-inch thin laptop (thickness from 0.3 cm to 1.7 cm), weight 1.35 kg.
  • MacBook Pro (in this case we will talk about two versions of laptops) is a powerful, productive laptop with a screen diagonal of 13 and 15 inches, a thickness of 1.49 cm and a weight of 1.37 kg.

Display

This is perhaps one of the most important points to pay attention to when choosing a model. The fact is that the latest Apple laptops are equipped with excellent Retina displays, providing high-quality images with rich colors. The new MacBook screens are much better than most Windows competitors.

Simple arithmetic applies here - the larger the screen, the larger the work area, but also the more you have to carry, and weight can be critical.

The MacBook has a 12-inch diagonal screen with a resolution of 2304 x 1440 (16:10) and a density of 226 ppi. This is exactly what a Retina display is, you really won’t be able to see the pixels with the naked eye, and the picture quality will pleasantly surprise you.

The MacBook Air is available only as a model with a 13-inch display (the 11-inch model has been discontinued) with a resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels (16:10) and a density of 128 ppi. This is a standard pixel density, and from a normal distance the “grain” of the screen is noticeable.

MacBook Pro comes in 13-inch with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels (16:10) and a density of 227 ppi, or 15-inch with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 (16:10) and a density of 220 ppi. Both screens are also Retina.

If we talk about the MacBook Pro 2016, they have a wider color gamut, so the colors look even brighter and more realistic. Other modifications use standard sRGB screens and display fewer colors than reality. The latest generation MacBook Pros offer a wider P3 color gamut—the color space is 25% wider, and with more colors, images look brighter, more realistic, and allow you to see even more detail. If you take a photo taken on an iPhone and compare it to the exact same photo in HDR, you'll see what we're talking about.

  • If you want a high-quality picture and don't need a large work area, feel free to choose a MacBook.
  • For full graphics work, any MacBook Pro is better suited.
  • If color accuracy is a fundamental issue for you, then we recommend looking towards the MacBook Pro 2016.

External monitors

MacBooks are often used as a portable computer, to which external monitors can be connected if necessary. For example, at home or at work. And here too there are some nuances.

The MacBook can be connected to the monitor via USB-C or via HDMI (if an adapter is available). Here it should be immediately noted that at the same time you will not be able to charge the laptop, since it only has one connector. You can connect a monitor with a resolution of up to 3840 x 2160 pixels (30 Hz), or up to 4096 x 2160 pixels (24 Hz).

MacBook Air only works with Thunderbolt monitors with a resolution of up to 3840x2160 pixels.

The capabilities of the MacBook Pro are much wider: a monitor with a resolution of 3840x2160 pixels is connected using Thunderbolt (you can have two at once), but if you bought a top-end package (with AMD Radeon R9 M370X), you can connect a monitor of 5120x2880 pixels (60 Hz). "Proshka" also works with displays with resolutions of 1920x1080 (60 Hz), 3840x2160 (30 Hz) and 4096x2160 (24 Hz).

The 13-inch MacBook Pro 2016 supports connecting one monitor with a resolution of 5120x2880 (5K), but the 15-inch works with two such screens at once. Therefore, if you plan to use two external monitors, you should choose the MacBook Pro.

Camera

Perhaps one of the few elements in Apple laptops that requires serious improvement. The company allows you to use FaceTime video calling not only on the iPhone, but also on the MacBook, and video calls in general do not lose their relevance.

The 12-inch MacBook has a 480p camera, which is, to put it mildly, rather weak. The remaining models use a camera that shoots in 720p resolution. Even the newest MacBook Pro does not support 1080p front cameras on Apple laptops. Actually, the choice here is simple - if you want high-quality video shooting, buy an additional camera with a USB connection.

CPU

The processor is the second important point that you should pay attention to when choosing a MacBook. Hardware affects performance, and we need to understand what tasks we are buying a laptop for.

MacBook is considered the weakest laptop in terms of performance. The 12-inch model is based on Intel Core M chips with Skylake architecture, which are significantly weaker than Core i5 or i7. On the plus side, this processor doesn't require a fan, and the smallest MacBook is completely silent. Apple offers configurations with M3, M5 or M7 chips - they differ in performance, but not much.

The MacBook Air uses an outdated chip with Broadwell architecture, but it is a proven Intel Core i5 or i7, depending on the configuration. This laptop is more powerful than the previous one, although it is worth remembering about weak displays.

The MacBook Pro runs on Skylake (13-inch), the 15-inch version runs on Broadwell. Both laptops, depending on the diagonal, are equipped with a Core i5 (2.7 GHz and 2.8 GHz) or Core i7 (3.1 GHz and 2.8 GHz) processor.

MacBook Pro 2016 runs on Skylake with almost identical parameters: 13 inches – Core i5 (2.0 GHz), Core i7 (2.4 GHz); 15 inches – Core i7 (2.6 GHz, 2.7 GHz, 2.9 GHz); Version with Touch Bar – Core i5 (2.9 GHz, 3.1 GHz), Core i7 (3.3 GHz)

  • If you want a thin and beautiful laptop but with decent performance, choose the M7-based MacBook.
  • If you want a portable machine, but with better performance, the MacBook Air.
  • If you need a powerful laptop for everyday use, the MacBook Pro is your choice.
  • If you need a top-end laptop for complex tasks like video rendering, you'll have to fork out for a 15-inch MacBook Pro 2016 and forget about upgrading for three years.

Graphic arts

Apple laptops don't have super-powerful graphics, and you're unlikely to be able to fully play video games on a MacBook. Again, a lot depends on the configuration - the GPU power may not be enough to comfortably play games rich in 3D graphics, but Apple laptops can handle complex multimedia content quite well.

The MacBook uses the simplest Intel HD Graphics 515, which is enough to work on one Retina screen. The MacBook Air runs on HD Graphics 6000, which is better than the MacBook, but still may not be enough to handle complex processes.

The 2015 MacBook Pro is equipped with an Intel HD Graphics 6100 chip, which is slightly more powerful integrated graphics than the MacBook Air. The top version provides a fairly powerful AMD Radeon R9 M370X video card with 2 GB of GDDR5 memory.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro 2016 received Intel Iris Graphics 540 (model without Touch Bar) and Intel Iris Graphics 550 (with Touch Bar) with the ability to upgrade to Radeon Pro 450 / 460. The 15-inch has Intel HD Graphics 530 and discrete graphics Radeon Pro 455 / 460.

The choice here is obvious - to work with multimedia content, you should take a closer look at the MacBook Pro 2015 or MacBook Pro 2016.

Autonomy

Everyone understands how important laptop battery life is. Whether you are flying on a plane, traveling on a train or bus, or even just sitting with a laptop in the park, these “last” 15-20 minutes are usually not enough to finish an important report, finish a presentation, or watch an interesting video. Wherever we need a working computer, and there are no sockets nearby, an additional plus to the laptop’s autonomy will not be out of place.

Fortunately, the MacBook has no problems with this - all models work without recharging for a very long time.

  • MacBook: 10 hours of browsing, 11 hours of video playback, 30 days of standby time.
  • MacBook Air: 12 hours browsing, 12 hours video playback, 30 days standby time.
  • MacBook Pro 13 inches: 10 hours of browsing, 12 hours of video playback, 30 days of standby time.
  • MacBook Pro 15 inches: 9 hours of browsing, 9 hours of video playback, 30 days of standby time.
  • MacBook Pro 2016: 10 hours of browsing, 10 hours of video playback, 30 days of standby time.

If battery life is a key factor for you, the 13-inch MacBook Air is worth a look.

RAM

The more RAM in a laptop, the more applications you can run simultaneously without reducing performance, process photos or videos.

The MacBook only offers one option: 8GB 1866MHz LPDDR3 memory

The 13-inch MacBook Air also only comes with 8GB of RAM.

MacBook Pro 2015: 8 or 16 GB 1866 MHz LPDDR3 RAM for the 13-inch version. The 15-inch MacBook Pro 2015 has 16 GB of 1600 MHz DDR3L memory.

MacBook Pro 2016: 8 GB 1866 MHz LPDDR3 RAM for the model without Touch Bar, upgradeable to 16 GB. The 2016 13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar comes with 8GB or 16GB of 2133MHz LPDDR3 memory. The 15-inch model is offered with 16 GB of 2133 MHz LPDDR3 memory.

  • If RAM is important to you, choose the MacBook Pro.

SSD drive

MacBook: 256GB PCIe SSD, upgradeable to 512GB.

MacBook Air: 128 GB, expandable to 256 GB or 512 GB.

MacBook Pro 2015: 13-inch – 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB; 15-inch – 256 GB, 512 GB, 1 TB.

MacBook Pro 2016: 13-inch – 256 GB, 1 TB; 15-inch – 256 GB, 512 GB, 2 TB.

Ports

MacBook: one USB-C, 3.5mm audio jack.

MacBook Air: two USB ports, one Thunderbolt 2 port, SD card slot, and 3.5mm audio jack.

MacBook Pro 2015: two USB ports, two Thunderbolt ports, an HDMI port, an SD slot, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

MacBook Pro 2016: two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports for the version without Touch Bar, four Thunderbolt 3 ports for the version with Touch Bar, while on the 13-inch model two of them do not work at full capacity.

Force Touch trackpad and keyboard

Force Touch technology allows you to press with force. To do this, you need to press down on the trackpad and then apply additional force. This way you can enable additional features for many Mac programs and system features. The Force Touch trackpad is available on MacBook and MacBook Pro.

Laptop keyboards are different - the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 2015 are equipped with conventional keyboards with a mechanism called “scissors”, which has one significant drawback - the keys are slightly loose around the edges. If you press such a key closer to the edge, it may hit the bottom before the mechanism registers the press.

The 2016 MacBook and MacBook Pro feature a new keyboard that uses a butterfly mechanism. It is a solid element made of more rigid materials with a larger support area. Thanks to this, the keys are more stable, respond more accurately to pressing and at the same time take up less space in height.

Colors

MacBooks are available in different color options. MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 2015 are available in silver, the MacBook is available in four shades (silver, gold, space gray, rose gold), the MacBook Pro 2016 is available in two colors (silver, space gray).

conclusions

The MacBook is perfect for managers and travelers who need the thinnest and lightest laptop possible with modern technologies for comfortable work.

The MacBook Air will be the choice for those who need the most affordable laptop from Apple - the device still has almost all the necessary ports, but the model itself is quite outdated.

MacBook Pro 2015 is a good and high-quality laptop with all ports; it is suitable as an alternative to a desktop computer for almost any user. Although it is not very convenient for travel.

Well, if you need the most advanced and productive laptop, choose the MacBook Pro 2016 (but remember that the “apple” no longer lights up there, if this is important to you).

History moves in a spiral, events tend to repeat themselves at certain intervals. If we draw analogies, the current generation of MacBook Air in its current state can be compared with those same white plastic MacBooks that disappeared somewhere unknown. I think the thinnest, lightest and longest-lasting model of Apple laptops will face approximately the same fate. A matter of time, nothing more. But this will only happen if the ideology of the Air model range is not revised.

If you rewind time a little back, to 2008, you can easily remember your first impression of the MacBook Air - “This is fantastic!” The thickness is slightly less than two centimeters, the weight is less than one and a half kilograms, and it is a powerful solid-state drive. Laptop from an envelope - everyone remembers the satisfied face of Steve Jobs at the speaker? The public experienced similar emotions a couple more times - during the announcement of the Air in an updated unibody case along with the 11-inch model in 2010 and more recently, in the spring of 2013, when the world realized that it was no longer necessary to carry a laptop charger with you. 12-14 hours of battery life is enough for most everyday tasks.

Moreover, Intel i5 and i7 processors based on Haswell architecture, paired with super-fast SSDs, turned the laptop into a kind of calculator: you pressed a button and immediately, almost instantly, got the result. At least, I had exactly these associations at the moment when I first got my hands on the current generation MacBook Air (2013 model range).

But one question remains unanswered to this day. Apple has left the displays in the Air unaddressed for now. While slightly more “advanced” laptops, even iPad tablets, are equipped with high-quality IPS matrices with Retina technology, all MacBook Airs are equipped unchanged with obsolete screens based on TN-Film technology. The situation has not changed for several years, only the resolution has been increased (from 1200 x 800 to 1440 x 900 pixels, if we talk about the 13-inch modification). I think in order to better understand the difference in the perception of Retina and TN screens in the Air and Pro, the best comparison is this: put the iPhone 3Gs and iPhone 5 next to each other and look at the image on both devices. The qualitative leap is noticeable immediately; after Retina you won’t want to go back.

It seems that this approach to the production of MacBook Air models is no longer acceptable, especially considering the appearance on sale of thirteen-inch MacBook Pros with Retina displays and with exactly the same technical parameters as in the current Air models. There are not so many fundamental differences, other than the main one - the presence in Pro of a magnificent 13" Retina High Defenition display with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels, try to highlight the important ones for yourself:

  • Pro is only 220 grams heavier than Air (1.57 kg vs. 1.35 kg), no charger required
  • The Pro is slightly thicker than the Air (though the Pro is even shorter at the hinge area)
  • Air is larger than Pro in dimensions (325 x 227 x 17 mm versus 314 x 219 x 18 mm), the difference in thickness is noticeable only in the trackpad area, if this is important to someone
  • Pro are equipped with Intel i5 and i7 processors with Haswell architecture, laptops easily work for 9-10 hours, the difference with Air in autonomy is leveled out
  • Pro, according to personal observations and feelings, is equipped with a slightly better keyboard
  • Pro is equipped with a larger number of ports and connectors (2xUSB 3.0, HDMI, 2xThunderbolt 2, 3.5 mm + SPDIF audio output, support for SD, SDHC memory cards)
  • The Pro anti-glare coating copes a little better with backlighting; in practice, this allows you to position the laptop as you please without worrying about glare and discomfort

The main factor holding you back from purchasing is the price; for a MacBook Pro in the basic configuration (Intel Core i5, 4 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD) in the official Apple store they ask for 52,990 rubles, a MacBook Air in exactly the same configuration will cost 7,000 rubles cheaper - you will have to pay 45,990 for it. If you look for unofficial sellers, you can find Pro for several thousand cheaper. If you plan to load your laptop with resource-intensive tasks, for example, running Windows in a virtual machine, I can recommend purchasing the extended version with 8 GB of RAM; otherwise, working on the standard 4 GB is quite comfortable. The difference in price is definitely justified, I was glad to replace my MacBook Air 2013 with the new MacBook Pro just because of the magnificent screen.

As a conclusion, I’ll cite a phrase from a friend on Twitter; I ask today’s Air owners not to take it literally. I really want Apple engineers and marketers to do something with the line of “the thinnest laptops in the world,” otherwise they will face the same story as with the white plastic MacBooks.

I would like to thank Store77 store employee Dmitry Lushin personally for his help in preparing the material.

Let's start with . What kind of bird is this and what is it intended for? Claimed to be an ultra-thin laptop, model Air It really amazes with its size and corresponding weight. With a thickness of only 1.7 cm (the minimum thickness is 0.3 cm) and a weight of just over a kilogram, the laptop leaves a pleasant sensation from just one tactile acquaintance. It is clear that holding a laptop in your hands is difficult to decide whether it is worth buying, so from somewhat mundane things you should move directly to the characteristics of the model Air.

MacBook Air Available in two formats: with 11 and 13-inch screen. The 2014 models are equipped with a dual-core Core i5 processor clocked at 1.4 GHz, 4 GB RAM and an integrated Intel HD Graphics 5000 graphics processor. Also, due to the difference in SSD drives, the battery life of 11-inch and 13-inch laptops is different. The smaller model has 9 hours, the larger one 12.

As with all laptops Apple in the model Air There is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth necessary for connecting peripheral equipment. It should be warned that if the user needs an Ethernet connector or FireWire 800, he will either have to purchase them himself, because MacBook Air Built-in Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 ports. You won’t be able to increase the operating memory on your own, so it’s better to order a laptop from an official representative, having specified the specifications in advance. An SSD drive can be purchased from third-party developers, but if you change the configuration of your devices, Apple stops providing service support.

Based on the above, we can conclude that MacBook Air easily copes with ordinary user requests, be it working with office applications, surfing the Internet, viewing photo and video files and editing them. The laptop also has high speed of working with flash drives.

Well, a logical question that sums up everything written above: who falls into the target audience of users? MacBook Air? Dynamic people get there who, for a number of reasons, do not want to part with their device. If you need a universal replacement, then MacBook Air fits like nowhere else. For those who need a device as a tool for professional activities, you need to take a closer look at MacBook Pro.

MacBook Pro

Actually. Excluding the outdated model from the review, we will focus on MacBook Pro with display Retina. New generation of LCD displays Apple is characterized by such a high pixel density that the human eye is simply not able to determine whether the image consists of them. Laptops of this model are also available with displays of different sizes: 13 and 15 inches. Same as in the model Air they differ in characteristics, but to a greater extent.

The 13-inch models are equipped with the same dual-core Core i5 processor with a clock frequency of 2.4-2.6 GHz. The size of RAM is set to choose from 4 to 8 GB, and the SSD drive is from 128 to 512 GB. Both models have an Intel Iris Graphics processor.

15-inch models are available with a quad-core Core i7 processor clocked at 2.0-2.3 GHz, 8-16 GB of RAM and SSD drives ranging in size from 256 GB to 512 GB. In addition to the Intel Iris Graphics processor, there is also a discrete video card GeForce GT 750M. The question about ports was partially migrated from the model Air. In addition to USB Thunderbolt ports, the model also includes HDMI. But just like in the previously reviewed model, FireWire 800 and SuperDrive connectors. With component upgrades the story is the same as in Air- you can update, but Apple will not approve.

Judging by the characteristics, it can be assumed that the operating speed on model laptops is Pro directly depends on the physical qualities of the user. In terms of performance, this laptop can be put on par with some models. Considering another new generation of displays Retina, we can conclude that in the line of laptops Apple model Pro preferred in all categories.

MacBook Pro First of all, it will be useful in work, as it meets the highest requirements. In addition, it will also be in demand among simple “advanced” users due to the convenience and comfort provided by the functional characteristics.

Today, Apple provides us with an extremely large range of equipment and programs. These include:

  • telephones;
  • tablets;
  • laptops;
  • computers;
  • players;
  • headphones and other related audio equipment.

The products of this manufacturer are extremely popular, have a stylish design, and are also distinguished by the quality of their assembly and components. Every year, the collection of software and devices is replenished with new models, for which people are not only willing to pay a lot of money, but also stand in huge queues in order to be one of the first to receive the coveted smartphone or laptop.

Apple's individuality is not limited to design alone, so as not to be similar to others, all Apple products run on their own platforms: laptops and computers run macOS, and smartphones and tablets are controlled by iOS. This fact also tells us that the software is also developed only for its own devices.

MacBook Air and MacBook Pro are very similar at first glance, but these slight similarities are mainly reflected in the design. Their internal shells have many differences and are selected in accordance with the individual needs of the user. Fans of productive machines most often prefer the second option, since its hardware is more powerful. Those for whom lightness and compactness are paramount, buy the first one because it is extremely thin.

Before you buy a MacBook for yourself or your relatives, you should remember that such a product is not cheap, the price will vary depending on the diagonal of the display, its type, country and the store where you make the purchase. The filling is usually chosen according to individual needs, which means that you don’t have to reach for the high cost and choose a model if you don’t fully use its functionality. Otherwise, such an investment will be inappropriate.

The good thing about choosing Mac OC as an operating system is that today there are no viruses or other malware that can harm your PC. However, the method of hacking by identifying your account's personal information still remains, so you need to choose your password carefully and not trust it to third parties.

The 2012 MacBook Pro served me well for more than 4 years, but it’s already 2017 and the euro has dropped significantly against the ruble, so it’s time to seriously think about buying a new computer, but what to choose: Apple MacBook Pro 2016 year or MacBook Air 2016 of the year?
When choosing a laptop, every user asks himself questions: compact, but weak, or sacrifice dimensions, but get better performance. I am no exception and asked myself similar questions, after watching a dozen videos and re-reading several articles, I settled on two models: Apple MacBook Air and MacBook Pro with a diagonal of 13 inches.

Both selected MacBooks from Apple met the most important requirement - compactness, because not every laptop can be put in a classic bag, moreover, I was clearly not ready to carry a bag weighing more than two kilograms every day.

MacBook Air 2016 and MacBook Pro 2016 specifications

Not only the speed and ability to perform various tasks depends on the characteristics, but also whether the chosen one MacBook relevant for the next few years. Nobody wants to buy a computer that in a year will not cope with tasks, because we will have to spend time selling and buying new equipment, and no one will reimburse us for the money spent.

I would like to note right away that I did not consider the MacBook Pro 2016 with the Touch Bar, because I think that this is a waste of money, because you and I do not use the F1-F12 keys so often.

For me, before choosing a computer, the Apple MacBook Air 2016 is not significantly different from the MacBook Pro 2016 from a technical point of view, for example, as I saw it:
1. Screen resolution MacBook Air 1440x900 vs MacBook Pro 2560x1600. I have never used a computer with a Retina screen, so unfortunately I have nothing to compare it with. Someone may say that it is possible to compare laptops in a store, but believe me, I did it, in a store you will not see much of a difference.
2. CPU A MacBook Air with 1600 MHz is hardly possible to fully compare with a MacBook Pro with 2000 MHz, and it’s worth considering that according to Benchmarks statistics, both laptops are almost on the same level.
3. Keyboard: classic or “butterfly”. I spent about two hours in the store and to be honest, the MacBook Pro keyboard annoyed me, it was noisy and small. The MacBook Air's keyboard was no different from my 2012 Pro model, and the soft, quiet click was definitely more enjoyable.
4. Large trackpad(or Touch pad) I considered it a clear disadvantage and thought that when typing text I would touch it with my palms, thereby increasing errors when working “blindly” with the keyboard.

I won’t lie, USB and USB-C ports are the least important thing when choosing a future computer. Adapters are not expensive, and their weight does not exceed 50 grams. Moreover, if you are a professional photographer or video shooter, then for this technique you have a briefcase or case where you can always put an adapter.

The above four reasons haunted me and for almost two weeks I was wondering whether it was worth overpaying almost 30,000 rubles for the 2016 MacBook Pro. After weighing all the pros and cons, I decided to buy a MacBook Pro, although I assumed that if the chosen model did not suit me, then I would easily sell it and buy a MacBook Air.
To my surprise, the Apple laptop turned out to be just the perfect machine.

Impressions of the MacBook Pro 2016

After working on the Apple MacBook Pro 2016 for several hours and looking at the monitor of my five-year-old Pro 2012, I was horrified. On the old screen I saw a not clear picture, dots (pixels) and blurry text. I can say with confidence that the Retina screen alone is worth paying extra for.

To work, I needed to install a Parallels virtual machine with Windows 7; unfortunately, working with programs such as Microsoft Office, 1C and SAP is much more comfortable on the Windows platform. I didn’t experience any technical difficulties; the MacBook Pro 2016 coped with all tasks perfectly.

Getting used to the keyboard occurs gradually, although many bloggers claim that 2 hours is enough - a lie. Of course, after a month I already feel discomfort when working with other keyboards, but I don’t dare fully declare the superiority of the MacBook Pro keyboard with Butterfly technology. In my opinion, Apple should have made pressing the keys softer and more silent.

It's worth paying attention to the large trackpad, it's great. When working on the Internet and with documents, this size is quite reasonable; working on it is a pleasure. Of course, I periodically pressed the trackpad with my palm and this affected the correctness of the input, so for comfortable work I recommend disabling the “Touch to simulate a mouse click” function.

Of course, each user has his own vision of the functionality and practicality of a laptop; some choose the Windows platform, others Mac OS. As they say, to each his own.
By the way, I paid 85,000 rubles for a 2016 MacBook Pro without the Touch Bar, but I’ll tell you about choosing an Apple hardware store and how to save on your purchase in the next article.

Is it worth buying a MacBook Pro 2016

If you use a 2012 or older MacBook model, then upgrading to the 2016 version will certainly please and impress you 100%. Of course, if you ask the question “Is it worth overpaying almost 30,000 rubles for a MacBook Pro 2016,” then you need to start from your financial capabilities. Do finances allow? then in front, to the store for a brand new Apple MacBook Pro.

Should you buy a Mac on credit or in installments? Ask yourself the main question: will the loan affect your life, will it make it harder to pay your bills? The decision depends on the answer. The main thing is not to forget - this is just a technique, without which life does not end.
