MacBook Pro 15 (2015) vs Notebook 9 (2016) 13"

The 15-inch 2015 MacBook Pro wins on performance with its Intel Core i7-4870HQ (4c/8t) and AMD Radeon R9 M370X (2GB GDDR5), outclassing the 13-inch 2016’s Intel i5-6267U (2c/4t) and Intel Iris Graphics 550. Buy the 15-inch model if you edit 4K video or run GPU-heavy apps—its 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD handle large files better than the 13-inch’s 8GB RAM and 1TB SSD, despite lower storage. The 13-inch 2016 is better for portability and all-day use: at 1.358kg with a 49.2Wh battery, it lasts ~8 hours on light tasks and includes a fingerprint reader for faster logins. In UAE at AED 899 vs AED 899, the 15-inch wins because its dedicated GPU enables professional workflows the 13-inch can’t match; in India at ₹19900 vs ₹22900, the 15-inch wins on value because its superior CPU and GPU deliver 15% more performance for ₹3000 less.
