MacBook 12 (2018) vs Notebook 9 Pro 13"

The MacBook Pro 15 2018 wins on performance with its i9-8950HK (6c/12t) and Radeon Pro Vega 20 (4GB HBM2) versus the 13-inch’s i5-6267U (2c/4t) and Iris Graphics 550, delivering nearly 3x the GPU power and double the CPU cores. Buy the 15-inch if you edit 4K video with Final Cut Pro — its 32GB RAM and Vega 20 handle complex timelines smoothly, while the 15.5mm thickness allows sustained turbo boosts under load. Choose the 13-inch only if you need 1TB storage for photo libraries on a lighter 1.358kg body and prioritize portability over speed, despite its 8GB RAM bottlenecking multitasking. In UAE at AED 1699 vs AED 1699, the 15-inch is better because it has double the RAM and a far superior GPU; in India at ₹36900 vs ₹43900, the 15-inch wins on value because it delivers 4x the GPU performance for ₹7000 less.
