MacBook Pro 15 Touch Bar (2016)
The MacBook Pro 15 2016 wins on performance with its Intel Core i7-6820HQ (4c/8t) and AMD Radeon Pro 455 (2GB GDDR5), outclassing the 13-inch’s Intel Iris Graphics 550 and dual-core i5-6267U. The 15-inch model is suited for video editors needing 16GB RAM and faster GPU rendering, while its larger battery (76 Wh) delivers ~8 hours of real-world use. The 13-inch model suits coders and travelers who prioritize portability (1.358 kg) and 1TB storage for local files, despite only 8GB RAM and weaker integrated graphics. In UAE at AED 999 vs AED 899, the 15-inch is better because its GPU and CPU handle demanding tasks the 13-inch cannot; in India at ₹22900 vs ₹22900, the 13-inch wins on value because its lighter weight and double the storage justify the same price despite weaker performance.
