Hi,
I have a 2018 MacBook Pro and I really don't like it. I find it frustrating in many ways, the lack of ports, the keyboard glitches, the touch bar, and the icing on the cake for me is now screen has something akin to "screen burn"on OLED devices.
I'm looking to purchase the last model of 15" MacBook Pro before the design change, I'd get the most powerful one available, i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and an AMD GPU (I believe?) to replace it, as they are now available at a lower price.
Is this worth the potential downgrade in performance as it's a now an older machine, even though in my opinion it is a better computer! I mainly use Logic Pro X with various plugins and sounds, though this is more RAM intensive than CPU intensive mostly, and only some light Python coding which isn't too strenuous either.
Thanks in advance,
MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar (Mid 2018), Quad-Core i5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD
