Hi guys,
I was about to pull the trigger on the base model 2020 MacBook Pro 13" and need some advice!
This is to replace my 2018 MBP 15" i7 2.2Ghz.
Requirements:
13" - non-negotiable (please don't suggest the 16" )
Non-Butterfly keyboard non-negotiable (please don't suggest an earlier refurb )
Not be slower than my 2018 MBP 15" i7 (I already have a 2020 MacBook Air which is fantastic machine but also doesn't meet use case)
16GB RAM (I occasionally run out of memory on 8GB)
--
My question is:
Will the 2020 MBP 13" with 8th gen CPU (base model i5) be faster than a 2018 MBP i7? ( I believe it's called Coffee Lake?)
Or will I need to go to the 2020 MBP 13" with 10th Gen CPU to see a noticeable speed increase?
The portability and size is key, along with the new keyboard, so using the MBP 15" is not an option. However, if I can save some money not going to the 10 Gen on the 13" MBP that would be great!
Thanks very muchly ✌ ☺
