Are you planning to buy a new super portable laptop from Applu, but you don't know what to choose? Do you like compact dimensions, low weight and elegance?ancnew Retina MacBooku? But at the same time, on the other hand, you are worried that compared to MacBooku Air will be underpowered, and with limitedoneactivity? And last but not least, you don't want to wait to see if Apple will come up with a new model line that would Air replaced? If you answered "yes" to all the questions, we have a video comparison for you, prepared by the server Appleinsider. 

New Retina MacBook is on sale for about a month, while the current generation MacBooku Air has been with us for a long year and a half, and when it comes to hardware, it shows. While the new Retina MacBook It has the latest Intel Skylake processor, Airu is a chip from the previous generation Broadwell, but it is slightly more powerful. 13″ Air Last month, it received 8GB of RAM as standard equipment, the same capacity as the RMB. The difference between the speeds of individual DDR3 modules is negligible from a performance point of view.

Newer Retina MacBook it is smaller, lighter, more compact and generally more portable ultrabook. However, it is redeemed by a keyboard that may not suit everyone, and above all, only one USB-C portem. Air It is 1″ larger in diagonal and overall more massive and heavier (the weight difference is 920g versus 1340g). Unlike the RMB, however, it has several ports (2x USB 3, MagSafe, SD reader and Thunderbolt).

On the other hand, the RMB has an absolutely wonderful display compared to its older sibling. The age is in the display Airu is quite noticeable and the resolution of 1440×900 is already a bad average for a 13″ laptop these days. RMB offers a resolution of 12×2304 on its 1440″ diagonal, and its display is, in a word, breathtaking. The color calibration and IPS panel do their job.
