Waiting for Skylake MBP thread

[jeh72]

Only way I'd go for this is if they used M.2 PCIE for storage. Which they probably don't...

 

[biolan]

Is 2.7 and 2.9 the same basically? 180 for the spec bump

 

[iasix]

I hope it's an error and there actually is a 16 GB 13 inch.

 

[pauliet]

The base 15" is £750 more expensive. Bloody Hell.

maxed out the 15" and fell off the floor at four grand!!!
hmm... can I wait four more years for actual innovation (or the chance of it!)

 

[ssong]

they raised the original 15" price as well XD

 

[AgentMcGeek]

So...you can actually choose between a Radeon 455 with 2gb and a 460 with 4gb?!

 

[mrkkbb]

they didn't drop the prices on 2015....

nope, because they are lower than the new prices lol

 

[shareef777]

Radeo460 is available on a maxed out unit.

 

[ZeneticX]

after checking the prices of the 15inch models in UK....

I guess I really made the right choice and I'm more happy when I decided to go for Alienware few months ago, although this SOB is thick and heavy

 

[ALRS_S48]

UK residents will pay the equivalent of $2859.45 for the base 15-inch.
That's a $450+ dollar price-hike over US residents!

Where do we go now? hahaha Sure as hell am not switching to windows. Even the "new" cinema display was a letdown.

 

[Alakagom]

Okay if anyone buys a macbook in UK they need to visit hospital ward first..

 

[groundcontrol]

Ouch! Like $4600 CDN for the 15" 2TB higher end video card (460). Only $100 less for academic discount. Yikes!

Very disappointed no 32GB ram option as well. Something they're saving for the next model I'm guessing.

 

[Wuiffi]

starting at 2700€ and with the sd card reader gone,

it's finally time to say goodbye.


Was a nice time here, anyway

 

[Jonesmak]

Just bought 2.7 15" with 512g and Radeon 460. If I have to wait I have to wait. Would have been nice to get it earlier. It actually showed shipping to your door quicker than in store

 

[buckeyet4r]

13 in with 3.3GHz processor and 16GB of ram is 2149 with an education discount... seems pricey and suddenly my Air on it's last legs is more appealing

 

[volcomvenom]

Apple.com is down for me. it's up now. So much traffic though.

 

[2457248]

top 15" config is 5099€ in italy
+ 1499€ only for the 2TB ssd.
and what's a radeon 455?

 

[Domen151]

Wait wait, I see they are still selling the base last years models for 1299 and 1999, couldn't they at least lower their price a bit or upgrade their processors? Or put a 256SSD instead of 128GB in the 13’ model? I guess they are the new cMBP but I don't think the smaller model is really appealing at only 128GB...

 

[Wreckus]

Quick post...

3499 CAD for the 512gb SSD 15 inch? WOW.

Listened to the keynote and from the sounds of it, I wouldn't like the OLED bar. Probably because I'm too old fashion.

Will post later but i think the prices are way too high.

 

[Blatboy]

The 16GB max is my only issue... and it's a big one... if this computer is to last me as long as my 2008 has...

 

[Cache]

13" touch bar base model in the US $1800, in EU €2000, **** logic.

 

[GZR]

The are still selling the base old models but have increased the prices in the UK.
The 13" has gone from £999 to £1249 and the 15" from £1599 to £1899.

 

[MindBreaker]

I have ordered the 13" with Touch Bar and 8 GB ram but I'm not sure yet. Maybe I will change it to 16GB or to the 15".

 

[ALRS_S48]

AMD's 460 is SLOWER than Nvidia's ENTRY 1050 GTX.
70% SLOWER than mid-ranged 1060 GTX
150% slower than the 1070 GTX

And that's only for the maxed out model that retails for $3000+
