Hello everyone,
Currently, I own a 2010 Macbook Pro 13". This laptop has done me well and still does everything I need it to. I upgraded the harddrive to an SSD, put in a new battery, and expanded the memory from 4GB to 8GB. Everything is snappy and it runs well, just I am wanting something newer.
I have been wanting to upgrade for sometime, but my expertise is in iPhones, not Macbooks, and despite research, I cannot seem to find what people consider the 'best' MacBook Pro. Every year, they seem to have issues that cause people to look for another or hold back and wait. From my research, my current MacBook Pro seems to be pretty worthwhile with no issues, or 'Apple Gates' that I could find about it.
I have been looking at the 2015 Retina, because it is the last of the models to have a USB port and HDMI input, but am finding issues that could affect me. The whole 'staingate' thing?
Anyway, I have come here looking for some expertise and wondering what the community on here would recommend. I don't need anything special, am just looking for an upgrade. Better screen, better battery, generally faster. Basically, if you own a Macbook Pro (before 2016) that has lasted a while with no issues, or just know a lot about MacBook Pro's, and would care to recommend, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You!
