Hi, at first, I apologize for my bad English. I am from Denmark, and about to buy a new Mac. Currently I own the 13" MacBook Pro 2018 with TouchBar. My main issues is that it only have 8 gb ram, and I too laggy when I edit 4K in Premiere Pro.

I have looked at the 15 inch MacBook Pro, but can't decide.

Here is the two models I have looked at:

MacBook Pro 2019 15 inch:
Price: 18,999 kroners (2,800 dollars)
- 2.6GHz 6-core Intel Core i7 processor (9th generation)
- Turbo Boost up to 4.5 GHz
- 16 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 memory
- 256 GB SSD storage
- Radeon Pro 555X with 4 GB GDDR5 memory

MacBook Pro 2018 15 inch:
Price: 21,999 kroners (3,249 dollars)
- 2.6GHz 6-core Intel Core i7 processor (8th generation)
- Turbo Boost up to 4.3GHz
- 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 memory
- 512 GB SSD storage
- Radeon Pro 560X with 4 GB GDDR5 memory

I work with 4K editing in Premiere Pro, and also photo editing in Photoshop/Lightroom. The photos is RAW, and often it fills a lot.

I don't know which computer is the right. My budget can't go higher than that, and this is the cheapest places I have found these two models. What would you do? Older processor and more ram, storage and bit better graphics or newer processor, but lower ram, storage and Graphics?

I really appreciate your time and help,

Regards
