Hey everyone, just wanted to see what everyone thoughts are on the following three options:
(1) 2019 MacBook Pro (2.3 GHz, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB, 560X) 15"
(2) 2019 MacBook Pro (2.3 Ghz, 32 GB RAM, 512 GB, 560X) 15"
(3) Rumored 2019 MacBook Pro 16" (base specs with similar pricing to above)
In short, I currently have an Early-2013 15" Macbook Pro and need to upgrade. The three options above are things I have in mind and the reasons are as follows:
(1) 2019 MacBook Pro (2.3 GHz, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB, 560X) 15"
(2) 2019 MacBook Pro (2.3 Ghz, 32 GB RAM, 512 GB, 560X) 15"
(3) Rumored 2019 MacBook Pro 16" (base specs with similar pricing to above)
In short, I currently have an Early-2013 15" Macbook Pro and need to upgrade. The three options above are things I have in mind and the reasons are as follows:
- Get (1) and upgrade to the new 16" in a few years to overcome possible bugs in first-year models
- Get (2) and don't worry about upgrading to 16" for 5+ years and have the 32GB for 'future-proofing'
- Get (3) because it's probably a lot better than the current generation
- Coding in Java, Python, Full-stack web development
- General Web browsing and media consumption
- Possible gaming through GeForce Now (until building a Gaming PC)
- I will be using this on the go but will have a monitor to plug into and peripherals for whenever I'm at a desk. This makes me think that the base specs of the 16" will be weaker than both options 1 and 2. The 1 inch, bezel-less design would be really nice to have but irrelevant when using a monitor and etc.
