How is the newer model better? What was upgraded?

I am not sure what exactly is new but I love this unit. I received it a month ago. I had a dewalt set before. Was 18 volts but not lithium ion. I really liked it and wore it out. These units are lighter and have more torque. Clearly more. Charges in short time. I am very pleased.

The screw guns are more compact and better ballanced. The recipricating saw is about the same. I also noticed longer battery life. I am very pleased, as a contractor, I would definetly recomend to anyone!

I don't know about the previous model .... this package has worked very well. With one regular and one large battery, there is plenty of power for long jobs. I was surprised at the power (and duaration) of the saw. I highly recommend.

Mine was not upgraded and it is very disappointing. This oversight is an enormous negative and I would recommend that they voluntarily its sale until this problem is corrected. I wish I had never purchased it - for this reason specifically!

I am not sure about the upgrade or not. We have had this machine before and not much different really. We bought our first one 5 yrs ago and seems to be the same as I remember.

I am not familiar with the newest model features. This model is phenomenal.

Thirding the question. Is there any new element and is the optical quality the same? How would a better lens be cheaper than the previous version?

I don't know the difference between the two--only that one is a newer model than the other. You should research the model numbers.

Has more memory, different color, faster processor, able to open/run many programs at once without heavily slowing down your phone. Camera positioning is different from older model.

The older version is great, loved it!! Battery life was phenomenal.. lasted months! I upgraded to the new version only because my old one broke. That said, the newer version is also great, extra buttons are very useful esp. if you use it for 3D modelling, but the battery life is not as good as the older version. Stock up on AA batteries, especially if you never turn the mouse off. Using the mouse daily, you may get a few weeks of battery life. Switching the mouse off at night will extend the life a bit tho.

I think the difference is that the new model probably has better internal components. Improvements to models are usually never stated, only new features if any.

new version: faster processor better power management (longer battery). Nothing that my wife noticed to be honest. For more details just type into your search engine "Mac Air old vs new" and you will get several more professional comparisons

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

Hello Steve;I bought one of these recently and Im completely happy. It is upgradeable but Mine came with 8.1 as yours should. If you have further questions, please contact me at; worlditsolutions@bellsouth.net. Blessings, Dj

Yes, I upgraded mine. Just remember it's a memory hog so hopefully you don't have a 16GB device with little storage. I have a 32GB device.

John- Their software updates helped, so the newer units aren't too bad compared to the first generation. I'm still looking forward to the next round of software upgrades though!

There are both optical and mechanical improvements in the new model. I wish I had the new one, but there isn't enough of a difference to justify the cost to me. The CPC1100 does the job I need.

Bob....I have no idea ! There are so many models out now that I have not been able to figure out which is the newest ! I do know however, that is as good as you can get. I have one and it does everything I want and need !

Actually, the new version has an inferior processor so you are better off with this one which has higher specifications
