Intel’s estimation is slightly less conservative than Apple’s, as the company is claiming the HD 515 is “up to 41 percent faster” than the HD 5300. The frequency of the HD 5300 was between 800MHz and 900MHz, while the frequency of this year’s HD 515 supports slightly faster speeds of up to 1000MHz. Apple says this year’s GPU is “up to 25 percent faster” to than last year’s, while not affecting battery life either. While the 2015 model included an Intel HD 5300 integrated setup, the 2016 model includes the snappier Intel HD 515 GPU. In addition to bumping up the processor slightly this time around, Apple has also upgraded the GPU found in its 12-inch MacBook.

These processors consume the same power as the low-power Core M used in last year’s model, meaning that battery life shouldn’t be affected, but offer improved performance. This year, Apple has upgraded the processor to an Intel Skylake Core M processor. Last year, Apple opted for a low-power Intel Core M processor that supported Turbo Boost to 2.9GHz with the maxed out 1.3GHz model. The biggest difference between the 2015 12-inch MacBook and the 2016 12-inch MacBook comes with the processor. We’ve done some digging, however, and will attempt to break down all of the differences between last year’s 12-inch MacBook and this year’s upgraded model. While Apple is touting that this MacBook is faster and offers longer battery life than last year’s model, the company is notoriously vague when it comes to sharing under-the-hood details on its product pages. Earlier today, Apple took wraps off of a refreshed 12-inch MacBook just over a year after the line was first introduced.
