Is going for the new 2020 Macbook Air worth it? Any tips or advice about this would be greatly appreciated.Īs nice as the 2020 MacBook Pro/MacBook Air computers are, unless you need the faster speeds the newer computers provide, the 2015 is still useable. I also don't want to wait several months for a new Macbook Pro release. The other specs, just reading off the paper, is very similar.

I'm not really considering the Macbook Pro because I don't care about the touch bar and the price difference is huge. The low memory and lack of space is driving me crazy too. I don't really know much about processors. Is it okay to drop from 2.9 GHz to 1.2 GHz? Will I see a huge difference in computer speed? My current computer is far from fast, but I don't think I can handle anything slower. I don't do heavy video editing, but every now and then I do use photoshop and play games. I always have multiple Safari tabs open, youtube playing in the background, Spotify, Apple Music, MS office applications, and Notes open. I also get a low memory error due to the 8 GB of RAM. The main reason for wanting a new computer is because I'm running out of hard drive space. I am considering getting the 2020 13-inch MacBook Air with 16 GB RAM and 1.2GHz quad-core i7 processor. I have an Early-2015 Macbook Pro with these specs: I know there is a lot of threads like this, but hoping someone can help me directly.
