Apple’s New MacBook

Written by Joey Peters

So right out of the blue Apple came out and released a new MacBook. Nothing actually has really changed in which I am kind of disappointed by. I’m happy that they made it just a little bit better but they could have added a whole lot more than just a better processor and better battery life.

The new processors are now skylake which are expected to also see a debut on the new MacBook Pro that will become announced at WWDC 2016 this year. They all start at the same GHz but now they turbo boost 2 more GHz than the older model processors. It is an improvement but not that big of a improvement.

They somehow fit even more battery life into that tiny piece of thing. I can’t believe that they fit more in. Instead of about 7 hours of battery you are now going to get around 10 hours of battery life which is now on par with the MacBook Pro. They will probably implement the battery technology that they used on the MacBook into the MacBook Pro and the MacBook Pro will probably have a monster battery when it gets refreshed.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that you can now buy it in a new color which would be Rose Gold (pink).

I was expecting more from Apple like another USB-C port on it so you can charge it and use an adapter at the same time because I can see how it could be very annoying. I can’t believe they didn’t add it because that would have made everybody that has a MacBook (2015) would want to upgrade to the new MacBook (2016) just for the extra port and Apple would have made a lot more money to make up for the iPhone sales declining.

Samsung Galaxy Note 6 may have 8GB of RAM

Check out this blog post in video form on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ALitmw-hgG4

The Samsung Galaxy Note series is known for being very powerful and one of the most powerful phones on the market. Apparently that is not good enough because they want to raise the RAM storage from 4GB to 8GB.

Most modern computers now have a base of 8GB of RAM inside to keep the computer running smoothly. Phones on the other hand don’t need that much RAM. The base RAM storage for a smartphone is at about 2GB. Samsung is thinking that they need 8GB of RAM which is just so freaking fascinating seeing that smartphones are going to be just as powerful as our home computer. That could either mean a good thing or a bad thing to you. If you are on the go and need to get work done, instead of pulling out the computer you can just pull out your smartphone from your pocket and do the same exact thing. It is bad if you are selling computers because then sales will probably go down because of this trend. Why buy a computer when your phone is way more portable and can be just as powerful.

This whole thing about the 8GB of RAM is all thanks to the new Snapdragon 823 which will be super fast, faster than a Chromebook. It will be a Quad Core processor running at about 2.6 GHz. My Mac runs at 2.7 GHz so it is really close to having the same amount of power as my Mac.

Just because the Snapdragon can hold 8GB of RAM, Samsung will probably only put 6GB in which is better and doesn’t sound like total overkill. I mean even we thought the 4GB this year was total overkill on a smartphone. Just imagine 8GB.
