Which 2015 Apple MacBook should you buy?

2015-05-11
I'm Dan Ackerman and we're here with a selection of Apple's updated or new for 2015 Mac books we of course got the new 12-inch MacBook that's a Core M system brand-new very fancy looking apples also updated the 13-inch MacBook Air that gets a new processor not that much else knew about it and of course we've got the 13-inch MacBook Pro also a new processor for 2015 and the force touch trackpad which is kind of fun as well so if you're looking to buy a new MacBook which one are you going to get well you know price is certainly worth considering here the air still $9.99 and still a very useful machine although the design is getting a little bit dated so that's this big thick bezel around the side no edge to edge glass over the screen and it's frankly a lower quality lower resolution display for $12.99 that's kind of a big jump you can get the fancy new 12-inch MacBook it's super light it's super thin it's got this nice wide key keyboard that's a lot of fun to use but it's also not as powerful with that Core M processor fine for basic web surfing if you do a lot of things at once frankly it is going to slow down on you a bit battery life also not as great as these two guys and you're stuck with that one USB C port right now and you probably don't have anything that has a USB C plug on it so the one that's probably the most overall useful right now is this guy the 13-inch MacBook Pro it's bigger it's heavier it's also $12.99 same as this guy but you get hdmi Thunderball bunch of USB 3.0 ports and you get you know a fast processor end this very nice-looking Retina display again with the edge to edge glass looks great runs great it's hard to decide our buddy Scott is actually thinking of buying a new MacBook and now that three new ones are out he doesn't know which one to get so I thought I'd take these over and try to see what his thinking is right now oh now Scott hey you've been planning on buying a new MacBook you guys there's a cover which all your here that haunt me again I've got all three of them here for you Dan why are you torturing me here's a 20 pain MacBook Air Shara 15 MacBook Pro and the new 2015 12 inch MacBook I noticed one of these you want to buy but you're not short someone you should buy yeah II what you thinking I'm totally torn this is this is not an easy process this year because I want to get this little I know I like to be portable but this is a slower processor this has one port that's is your billing machine yeah it's my machine yeah I need to go through and deal with old crap at home it's - maybe it's gonna break your heart but for your main machine at home that you use all day every day all the time yeah I'm gonna put this little guy aside for now okay I figured that was probably going to be the case but we'll say I got the pro and the air the pro obviously more more functional more ports and stuff right better screen that's tempted are so much cheaper $9.99 still 18 hours of battery life on our video battery test I have a hard time with the fact that it's as a non Retina display and that probably has everything I need but I I feel like I would use the Retina display and the better processing on this what I am I just gonna wait for of a multi-year purchase maybe this entry here you'd go oh now it feels really old right like two years down the road I'll maybe feel better for forgetting this but then you're getting even even a little bigger and heavier what I really want was this I want this with the right in a display that's what I want oh my god why can't I get that because I'd rather have your $12.99 then your 990 yes then they say you've got a pick which one of these I want this I want this with retina so it sounds like Scott is not really any closer to a decision I know he'd love to get my OK to get the new 12-inch MacBook and I like it a lot but it's not for everybody and it's maybe not for your main at home all day every day machine if you were looking at by kind of a high point of each one I'd say the 13-inch MacBook Air best battery life by several hours and also least expensive $9.99 hard to go wrong with that for $12.99 the MacBook itself is super sleek lots of fun to use it's actually got more harddrive space it's got a 256 gig flash storage drive inside and then kind of the best of all worlds is probably the pro right here a little bit less portable but to get good power good battery life good value lots of expandability I'm Dan Ackerman and that will hopefully help you decide which 2015 MacBook is right for you
