Apple announced on April 19, a newly adopted Skylake generation processor, and launched on April 20.On March 9, 2015, the first model with a USB Type-C connector was announced for the first time as a consumer notebook PC.About a year has passed and the first update has been reached.

The biggest point of this update is that the CPU has been changed from the fifth generation (Broadwell) to the sixth generation (Skylake).As a result, the power consumption has been reduced as well as improving the processing capacity.In addition, the graphic drawing performance has been improved by changing the built -in GPU from "Intel HD Graphics 5300" to "Intel HD Graphics 515".

In the memory, the operation clock frequency has been raised from LPDDR3-1600 to LPDDR3-1866, and the basic performance should be improved by improving the data transfer speed.In addition, although the interface remains in PCI Express, it has not changed, but new generation SSDs have been adopted, improving storage lead light performance.

The main body color of the MacBook announced this time is available in Space Gray, Gold, Silver, and Rose Gold.As for the parts configuration, "Core M3-6Y30 (1).1/2.2GHz)/lower model equipped with 8GB/SSD 256GB and "Core M5-6Y54 (1).2/2.7GHz)/Memory 8GB/SSD 512GB is available, and both the lower model and the upper model are CPUs "Core M7-6Y75 (1)..3/3.1GHz) "can be changed.

This time, what I could borrow from Apple for this review was a lower model equipped with Core M3-6Y30/memory 8GB/SSD 256GB.While reviewing the features of the MacBook series, I would like to review how much performance has been improved by the new model with the Skylake generation processor.
