The base model of the 13" with touch bar price increases from the current $1399 to $1799. That certainly surprised me and is substantial.
Also, why would anybody buy an air now? It is worse in every possible category.

I think the reason you'd buy an Air is for the regular good old keyboard (without Touch ID) for those of us that want a real Escape key.

Well the low end model of the new MBP has the F keys instead of a touch bar. But it is still $200 more than the previous base MBP.

And the better price. I think most 13" Pro and Air users will get this option.
