Hello Macrumors family,
I am a proud owner of a 15" MacBook owner, bought it March 2015 from Best Buy (LOL) and am currently using the device right now. I love it! Over the years I have played Sims 4 on it a lot, and have used it for school. The most taxing workload I have ever done is mostly playing Sims 4 (but like hours and hours), I do not edit or anything else. I do enjoy using it for browsing the web and enjoying shows or movies. I must admit, I have fallen asleep with it on my bed and knocked it off more times than I can count. Thankfully, the build quality has kept my baby functioning perfectly. The bottom right outer shell does have some denting... SOS, how could I commit such an act. Anyways, it is time for an upgrade and I need help, please.
I am most likely going to be playing Sims 4 on it, or I would like the ability. I am back in school so that and maybe FT calls, nothing major. Maybe I would get into photography but... I want to keep this next laptop for hopefully another 7 years or more. No issues with this angel baby cake. I do realize they may update the 14", 16".... should I be patient... should I get an upgraded Air M2 (I worry of no fan and if I play Sims, I do not want it overheating. Also I was thinking of 10 core GPU upgrade with 512GB Storage)? I do not mind configuring and special ordering because it is an investment. HELP, in the name of love! I feel like going down to a 14" is not a bad idea but also I do like big things... and big screens. If I end up getting a 14 and regret but who knows maybe another owner downsized and its not a big difference?!
Also I forget I can go in store but I like this community, please give feedback and go in as depth as possible. I would really appreciate it.
Gripes for current Mac: Wish I ordered one with larger storage. I currently pay monthly for more cloud storage.
Specs: 2.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 // 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3 // Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB
