hey guys this is MIDI with Max 2nd today we've got the brand-new 2018 13-inch
MacBook Pro for $1,300 and we're gonna be comparing it to the old 2017 function
keys MacBook Pro so let's go ahead and start unboxing this guy right here and
we're gonna be comparing everything from the speakers to the keyboards to
performance and everything like that alright let's get this bad boy unboxed
here we go we got the silver model oh nice
there you go oh it's beautiful just get the box out of the way let's
open this guy up whoop brand new fresh so it's great about the new 2019 model
is that it's the same exact $1,300 price and it gets a bunch of awesome new
features added on for example the keyboard switches have been updated with
the new materials that are gonna be much more reliable just like the 15-inch
model that came out just a couple of months ago and we've yet to hear any
issues with that model and if you do have any issues Apple will fix it
completely for free for the next four years after your purchase so before I
get everything loaded up and started let's just quickly test out the keyboard
to see if there's any differences so oh it's a lot more quiet you can definitely
tell that the old keyboard is really really clicky and this new one feels a
little bit maybe a little mushy or definitely more quiet than the other one
and as you guys can see right here the new 13-inch model finally gets the touch
bar as standard for the same $1,300 price we've got the touch bar right here
and we've got the touch ID sensor right over here wow this one the old 2017
model gets the function keys and on the outside there is literally no difference
it's exactly the same no changes at all same really thin sleek awesome design so
originally we thought that this MacBook Pro doesn't come with hey Siri but it
actually does I'm here in this setup right here as you guys can see so that's
pretty awesome and here we are in the touch ID setup
let's quickly go through that and as you can see putting in my fingerprint right
here that's really awesome that you're getting this touch ID with
the touch bar on the $1,300 model comes standard now and what's great about this
new model is that it now comes with true tone just like the more expensive
MacBook Pros as you guys can see the display actually changes the white
balance to match your surroundings like the room that you're in and when you
turn it off the screen becomes more blue especially if you're in a tungsten lit
room which is really great to get at the standard price one thing that's also
different is that the new 13-inch MacBook Pro also gets a larger battery
but you should still see around the same battery life because you're getting
quite a bit more performance on this guy which we'll show you in just a minute
and another thing is that the new one also gets Bluetooth 5 instead of
Bluetooth 4.2 on this old 2017 MacBook Pro and that's going to help you with
things like the new air pods - which do support bluetooth 5 now one thing I'm
curious about is if the speaker's have been upgraded from the 2017 to the 2019
so let's go ahead and test them out [Music]
[Applause] [Music]
right so it's very very hard to tell I think they might be exactly the same
speakers they both sound amazing much better than a lot of the Windows laptops
that we've tested before so one thing I noticed on the spec sheet is that the
new MacBook Pro actually has one more microphone than the old one so let's go
ahead and do a screen recording or a movie recording and test out the
microphone and the webcam quality as well this is an audio quality tests on
the 2017 macbook pro this is an audio quality tests on the new 2019 macbook
pro now let's get into what you guys have been waiting for performance and as
you guys know the new 2019 13-inch model has a quad core processor now compared
to the old dual core on the 2017 and the graphics hasn't been upgraded as well so
let's go ahead and start with Geekbench for here we are on the new macbook pro
let's go ahead and run the cpu benchmark so this is actually really awesome we're
getting a higher single core score even though the base clock is lower and if
you look at multi-core we're almost getting double the score as the dual
core 2017 model now that's really impressive now let's move on to graphics
with the Kika bench floors mettle test and let's go ahead and run it just like
that so as you guys can see it's definitely faster than the old MacBook
Pro we're getting thirty five thousand and metal so that's a really good
improvement and finally let's finish it off by running Cinebench r15 the classic
for processor performance here we go and as you guys can see we're getting almost
double the Cinebench r15 score so I'm really really impressed with this new
13-inch MacBook Pro it's the same exact price and you're just getting so much
more value you're getting much more processor performance you're getting the
true tone display you're getting the touch bar as standard with touch ID and
apples t2 chip so there you have it guys if you want to see more in depth
performance testing of this new 13-inch MacBook Pro we're actually going to be
doing a direct comparison against this MacBook Pro in the $1,800 model very
soon so if you're not already subscribed make sure to subscribe right now and
