Better than its predecesor in terms of weight, size, thickness. It has good battery backup, Even when I am using it for development purpose it gives me 6hour+ battery backup, the speaker quality is also quite loud without losing music's crispness. It feels good to use force touch trackpad. The backlid keyboard is very helping while working in the night.
The Good
- Best in class Battery Backup,
- Faster data Transfer rate because of SSD R/W speed: 1416 MBPs/1339 MBPs
- Awesome Retina Dispay
The Bad
- Force Touch is good, but there are not more apps supporting force touch,
- The graphics processor could have been better to support Faster Video Processing (Adobe's softwares).
