Notebook 9 (2016) 15"
The MacBook Pro 15 2016 wins on performance with its i7-6920HQ (4c/8t, up to 3.8 GHz) and AMD Radeon Pro 460 (4GB VRAM) versus the 13-inch’s i5-6267U (2c/4t, up to 3.3 GHz) and Intel Iris 550. The 13-inch model suits light tasks like web browsing and document work, offering 10 hours of battery life and weighing just 1.358 kg for portability. The 15-inch model is for video editors and 3D artists needing 32GB RAM and 4GB VRAM to handle 4K timelines and GPU-accelerated rendering without throttling. In UAE at AED 899 vs AED 1049, the 13-inch is better because it saves AED 150 with nearly identical storage and macOS performance for non-creative work; in India at ₹22900 vs ₹26900, the 13-inch wins on value because the ₹4000 difference doesn’t justify the extra weight and heat from the dGPU for most buyers.
