Mac buyer's guide 2015 MacBook: http://mytechmethods.com/macbook MacBook Air: http://mytechmethods.com/macbook-air MacBook Pro: http://mytechmethods.com/macbook-pro Since I’m a Mac user and I've reviewed many Apple products I decided to make a Mac Buyer's Guide video for 2015 and help you decide which MacBook would be the best for you. MacBook Family * 3 models of the MacBook family: MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro * Go over each laptop and tell you what person it's best for to see if it fits what you want MacBook * Brand new; available in April 2015; Base model starts at $1299 * 1st MacBook to be available in 3 colors: silver, gold, and space gray (like iPads and iPhones) * 12” IPS Retina display with 3 million pixels * Intel Core M mobile processor * 8GB of RAM and at least 256GB of flash storage * MacBook is for you if you just love having the newest Apple features (Force Touch trackpad and new butterfly mechanism keyboard) * Care about looks more than performance (sexy; retina display; colors) * Want something ultra portable and mobile; Apple's thinnest and lightest laptop (2 lbs and 9 hours battery life) * Just run basic applications like web browsing, email, productivity software, nothing too CPU dependent (has mobile Intel Core M processor) * Don't use USB drives or other external devices that much: SD card, cameras, charge phone/tablet, monitor (only 1 USB-C port for charging/input/output) * Don't Skype/FaceTime much and don't need to record HD videos with the webcam (only 480p) * Want something that resembles an iPad * Most of your digital life is all wireless and on the Cloud * Have the budget for it (expensive for what you get) MacBook Air * Comes in 2 sizes: 11” starting at $899 and 13” starting at $999 * It does not have an IPS Retina display * 4GB of RAM (can be upgraded to 8GB) and 128GB flash storage (can be upgraded to 256GB) * Fifth-gen Intel Core i5 dual-core processors (can be upgraded to i7) * MacBook Air is for you if you * Want a small, lightweight, thin laptop * Always on the go (great for students and travelers) * Don't mind having a non-HD display * Like the thin compact size of the MacBook but need better performance and speed * Care about battery life more than anything (13" gets up to 12 hours; longest battery life of any Apple laptop) * Run typical everyday applications and can even handle some photo editing and light video editing * Still need access to Thunderbolt and USB ports * Need an HD webcam (720p) MacBook Pro (Retina) * Comes in 2 sizes: 13" starting at $1299 or 15" starting at $1999 * Both models have IPS Retina displays (13" has over 4 million pixels; 15" over 5 million pixels) * 13" comes with 8GB RAM (can be upgraded to 16) 15" comes with 16GB RAM * 13" has 128GB flash storage (can be upgraded to 256 or 512); 15" comes with 256GB flash storage (can be upgraded to 512) * 13" comes with fifth-gen Core i5 dual-core processor (can be upgraded to i7) * 15" comes with fourth-gen Core i7 quad-core processor * MacBook Pro is for you if you * Want the best performance and fastest speed * Run CPU-intensive or graphics-intensive applications like gaming, HD video editing, 3D modeling, CAD, virtual machines, hardcore Photoshop * Don't mind having a heavier laptop compared to the other MacBook models * Want a desktop replacement * Need as many ports as possible (HDMI, Thunderbolt, USB, SD) * Get 13" if you want long battery life, new Force Touch trackpad, and fastest read/write disk speed * Get 15" if you want the bigger display and want the best processor performance and best graphics.
