2015 rMB Owner Here - Regretting My Purchase... Advice?


so got shunned in rmb threads people in denial. i've been told 2015 rmb runs fast rmbp , don't know i'm talking about. trying convey computer slower previous macs in rmb owner's thread going democratic national convention , preaching end gun control. lol

previous notebook computer 2014 11" macbook air "ultimate" ... loved how fast was, , how super portable was. peeve horrid low-res, low quality screen. when saw keynote 12" retina macbook, got excited.

weekend 12" rmb came out, bought it. bought 1.2 ghz, 512gb gold model. after bringing home, ecstatic physical dimensions. wasn't thrilled having buy new power adaptors, , usb adaptors, did it. told i'm $1900 now.

after 3 weeks owning it, little things started bugging me it. battery lasts near say. 9 hours, 4-5... people turning brightness way down , disabling bluetooth (how use mouse?) closer 7-8 hours too, seems silly.

biggest pet peeve performance. it's awful, or i'm critical. issues notice flash sites (facebook games, etc) it's jerky or laggy it's unusable. also, notice on little things when i'm clicking through unread emails arrow keys, click on email , click on next , processor slow doesn't register email having been clicked on, it's not marked read. things installing software, os updates, etc, on average takes twice long old macbook air.

i'm kinda in dilemma now. i'm not sure if going rmbp 13" or macbook air 11 better @ point. i've brought issues in rmb forums, , people drunk on kool-aid , oh turn off features animations , os display features. no! didn't spend $1900 have disable features meant work on mac.

have advice me? travel lot, wonder if 13" rmbp bulky\heavy after air , rmb. seems more appropriate model.. or maybe go 11" macbook air... dunno. have imac 5k @ home, laptop not primary computer.

thoughts\suggestions?
 

mbps different mbs. go nearby apple store or best buy , try 1 out. if in-store demo try 14 days.
