Should we expect a new Macbook Pro 15 2015?

Question

macbook

Should I wait for the new Macbook Pro 15 2015 or buy the current Macbook Pro 15 mid 2014? I count on the cost of the younger model, no more. It confuses the question of how much more powerful Broadwell will be and will there be any other significant changes?

Answer 1

I am the owner of the base model Macbook Pro Retina 15''. It was brought to me at the end of last month. Copes with all the tasks set with a bang (surfing the internet, working with text, watching movies, working in XCode), even pulls the Warface game at high settings and a screen resolution of 1920x1080, despite the integrated Intel Iris Pro graphics, which is slightly inferior to the video card in the older model. The only downside to Macbooks is that they heat up like hell even when I'm just surfing the internet and listening to music, but that can be fixed by buying a laptop stand.
In general, I think that there is no point in chasing new products, these computers come out every six months / year. Buy now, you won't regret it :-)))
Good luck to you!

Answer 2

For what purpose?

Answer 3

I am a system administrator. Goals - surfing the internet, programming, watching movies, sometimes I play World Of Tanks level games. I realized that there is only 256GB ssd in the database (I’m starting to think about the older model.
If the new Broadwell is 3-8% more powerful, then this is not critical for me. I don’t want to sit waiting for the new model for half a year, but if it comes out in a couple of months, then I don’t mind waiting, because I buy a laptop with my hard-earned money and I don’t want to see a new model for the same money in a couple of months.But if they gave it to me, then I wouldn’t mind the 2013 model)))

Answer 4

I think that the previous model will suffice. In the new one, they will most likely add a new touchpad and redo the keyboard (if not already), perhaps some minor improvements yet

Answer 5

Compare the new trinashka with the previous model. If the difference is significant, wait, if not, take the current model.
Fifteen is waiting for exactly the same updates (faster SSD and processor with graphics, touchpad), they are just delayed due to the delay of the top quad-core Broadwells.

Answer 6

But what about SSD double speed? rMBP 13" has already been upped. You can already compare and try to understand what to expect. There is also a possibility that there will be DDR4

Answer 7

I bought just 15" before the March event. After it, the prices for all sorts of iPhones and Airs fell, but they just rose by 15". In this regard, I think that it is not worth waiting for the next couple of months. Especially considering that the new model will obviously cost more than the current ones, and, judging by the 13" upgrade, no big profit is expected.
