Apple has recently released a new 2019 model 13" MacBook Pro.

Main features are:

- 8th gen. quad-core CPU
- Better speakers
- True Tone Retina Display
- Touch Bar with Touch ID
- 3rd gen butterfly keyboard

I'm still using my 2011 17" MacBook Pro (mostly for the nice large 17" display)...but it still gets almost everything I need it to do done

- The 17" 2011 MacBook Pro has a quad-core CPU...and geekbench 4 CPU score for it = 9,077
- Geekbench 4 CPU score for this new quad-core 2019 new 13" MacBook Pro = 16,955

I think it's getting very close to upgrading time!

One of the things I love the most about the new MacBook Pros has to be their speaker system! They are some of the best speakers in the business! Clear volume, and great tones no matter what media is playing. The new 13" MBPs offer an incredible package IMO. It's still my favorite 13" notebook, regardless of the new MBP-hating bandwagon.

I definitely got to get to an Apple Store to hear this (if it's possible in a noisy Apple store). Improved speakers is definitely one area we don't hear improvements coming from very often...so kind of cool Apple did a speaker improvement!
