We are talking about less than a half pound difference of weight between the 2015 and 2016. Whether or not you relieved yourself this afternoon would be a greater delta. Difference in thinness is 0.12" between the two. The bezels are slightly tighter on the 2016 machine but unless you are looking for it with both machines in front of you, I don't think you will notice this. I don't think these changes in geometry make the 2015 chassis "horribly outclassed" today.

I do notice it though. Half a pound isn't trivial when talking about a 3 pound device.
Maybe it's just in my head, as I noted I'm not a design expert, I mostly just know how it "feels." And to me the 2015 design does feel outclassed by most any ultrabook around this year, including modern macbooks.
