Most of us thought that the power of the new HTC Nexus 9 is going to be really great, but nobody expected it to appear on par or a little better in terms of the hardware computing power compared to the 2012 edition of a macbook pro.

Benchmarks don't lie
With a monster powered dual-64 bit processor, the new HTC Nexus 9 is perceived to be ultra fast, but according to the benchmark made by Geekbench it perform almost or at least on par with a macbook pro 2012! It scored 1,903 a little bit lower compared to the professional level laptop of macbook pro at 1,925! Considering the price, the new nexus 9 seems to be the better buy.
Of course that's not the only thing to be considered...
A laptop and a tablet is always different, the scores maybe close but when it comes to work and multimedia editing I will still choose the 2012 edition of the macbook pro with dual os in it. However, when it comes to gaming and multimedia portability during travels the new Nexus 9 is an excellent choice. In that regard, just choose whatever device suits you well in the situation needed.
