You will never compromise on power with it. It still manages to wow, though other systems like the QHD+ (3,200 by 1,800) Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro and Dell XPS 13. With around $4000 budget if you can afford to work on a desktop than a laptop, I would only recommend you Mac pro as the ultimate machine. A 13.3-inch, 2,560-by-1,600-resolution Retina Display is the star of the show here. You can use a cooling pad when resting it on your lap to avoid the heat burns caused due to heat generated from the i7 processor during graphic intensive tasks. However, if your are kind of demanding power user then I would recommend you to go with the top of the line 15 ” Macbook pro with the nvidia secrete graphics. Note that most users will be very well satisfied with the i5 processor even while doing graphic intensive work like "Adobe Cloud Suite editing products", provided they don’t run dozens of graphic intensive programmes simultaneously. If you are this kind of user than the i7 is the way to go or else stick to the i5 processor and some your money. It is certainly a bit noisier than the i5 processor though but I won’t say that it will affect the overall battery life adversely.

The i7 processor only does its magic trick when you are doing multi tasking and you want to run all those graphic intensive applications and processes all at the same time buttery smooth without choking up your macbook.Īlso, note that an i7 processor will generate more heat to keep itself running more efficiently which in turn will trigger the fans high and reduce the battery charge.

I would rather recommend you to go with the i5 processor than the i7.īasically, you won’t notice any difference in the i5 and i7 processor in the Macbook pro.
