Hi guys,
Finally upgrading to a new MBP, but I'm shocked about the new prices.
My current machine is a 13" mid 2009 MBP.
What I do on my machine is to store my photo archive and edit many raw files that I shoot with my SLR, as well as occasional GoPro video editing.
I'm leaning toward the ne MBP 13" with touch bar, 2.9 GHz Dual Core i5, 256 SSD and 16GB RAM. I do not mid the loss of ports and I actually like the design.
However for the almost the same amount of money I can go to the 2015 MBP with 3.1 GHz Dual Core i7 with 16GB RAM and 512 SSD
Also, I can go to mid-2015 15" MBP, 2.2 GHz Quad Core i7, 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD.
I drool over the SSD speeds of the new ones, but I can get more storage with the old ones.
Also I may get more performance with the 15" due to the edits I'm doing could take advantage of the extra cores.
But the 15" is 2 generation behind and the performance could be not as well as I thought compared to the 2016 13" MBP.
What do you think?
Which one would you pick considering the RAW photo and video edits?
