The real difference between two consecutive versions of a product usually comes down to processor performance, small adjustments in energy efficiency, and software improvements; radical design or hardware changes happen every 2 or 3 generations.
Factors to determine whether it's worth making the leap:
- Processor generational leap: Assess whether the new version offers a significant increase in speed or battery life.
- New software-exclusive features: Check whether these new features will reach the previous model through an update.
- Price-to-benefit ratio: Compare the cost difference with the actual improvements to your daily use.
