Does anyone have a link to a size comparison of the 12 inch, 13 and 15 inch (new models) laptops?


I have a 13 inch new to a 13 inch old pro but 15 inch comparisons from the hands on are hard to find.
 
Here is a picture that I shot over the weekend with the 12" rMB on top of the new 13" MBP Base Model on top of my old 13" MacBook Air. I do not have a 15" to add to the pic, but hopefully it will help you out a bit. I was surprised how much smaller the footprint of the new MBP is than my old MBA.

That helps a bit, I currently have a 12 and a new 13 just trying to decide if I want to upgrade to the 15, they say its 20% smaller footprint...that seems substantial.

I'm keeping the 12 (also bought the 13) and moving to a 15. Makes more sense. I'm sure the 15 is very nice, as is the 13.

Not a chance i'll ever give up the 12, so there's just too much overlap.

I want to just have one, i have an older 27 inch iMac.

I was either doing the base 15
or thinking 13 with touch bar 16gb ram and was debating on the i7 processor.

Get a base 15 if you have a 12. It makes more sense. This is what i'm doing. Of course if you decide to try the 13, you can always switch to a 15 if it's returnable.

I was going to get rid of the 12 all together
