MacBook Pro 15 (2018)
The MacBook Pro 15 2018 with i9-8950HK (6c/12t) and Radeon Pro Vega 20 (4GB HBM2) outperforms the 2016 model’s i7-6920HQ (4c/8t) and Radeon Pro 460 (4GB GDDR5) in CPU multi-threading and GPU memory bandwidth. Buy the 2018 model if you edit 4K video in Final Cut Pro—32GB RAM and faster HBM2 VRAM handle complex timelines without lag, and macOS 10.14 supports newer apps. Choose the 2016 model if you code in Xcode or run light VMs—16GB LPDDR3 is sufficient for most tasks, and the lower price saves ₹2000 in India. In UAE at AED 1799 vs AED 1499, the 2016 model is better because it saves AED 300 with negligible daily performance loss; in India at ₹39900 vs ₹37900, the 2016 model wins on value because the ₹2000 savings outweigh the 16GB vs 32GB RAM gap for non-rendering workloads.
