I'm still hesitating... Am using a mbp 13" 2017 with i5 8gb ram and 512gb storage. I usually just use my laptop to for excel + ppt + PS AI LR to create posters and to edit photos + web browsing.
Although my current mbp is good enough to fulfill my needs, it has been giving me a lot of problems like the stage light effect and the butterfly-keyboard issues since 2 years ago. I've changed the top case and screen twice but the problems just come back from time to time.
If you guys were in my shoes, would you change to 14" mbp or just stick to the 2017 mbp?
I would suggest getting a 2015 15" i7 MBP. The used price is very reasonable now. The base config has 16GB RAM. It is more than enough for your needs and it is built like a tank. The 2 USB ports, SDXC slot and HDMI port is so so convenient. No issues with display / keyboard like the later MBPs. Just clean the fans, replace the thermal paste, and you're good to go.Although my current mbp is good enough to fulfill my needs, it has been giving me a lot of problems like the stage light effect and the butterfly-keyboard issues since 2 years ago.
