Hi. I'm just playing around with my brand new 13 inch MacBook Pro and it came with Sierra 10.12.6. I'm wondering if there is any reason to update it to high Sierra right away or if I should keep it how it is for a few weeks and test the battery life and performance.

Anybody else with this computer update? Is it faster? The same? Good battery life? I'm a super noob to MacBooks but better late than never! The last Mac I had was back in the mid 90's :eek:! If you guys have any tips for me that would be awesome! Thank you! Loving this computer so far!

It shouldn't make much difference either way, however high sierra does have Metal 2 better UI smoothness and graphics should be a bit more efficient than previously.
