Hey guys, need some advice on which to get. This will be my first mac! I will be using this laptop for photo editing such as Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC and college work. I'm a hobbyist with photography but do a bit of paid work on the side.I also have a custom built PC that's a powerhouse so this will be a complimentary device when I'm at college/travelling. They are the same price.

Also will the P3 screen make a huge difference?
Thanks
