Recently picked up a 16" MacBook Pro and I love it, but I have never loved how MBPs interact with external monitors and even apple wireless keyboard/touchpads. I am torn between pairing it with a 5K iMac (i9/1TB SSD/VEGA 48) or going with a slightly more spiced up 16”. I work about 50/50 home and at my gym. I am doing a lot of productivity work as well as a good amount of video editing. 2-3 hours a week and 2-3 bigger 20-25 hour projects during the year.
Option 1: Return the 16” and go with a BTO with i9/32GB RAM/1TB SSD/8GB 5500m and pair it with a 27” LG 4K monitor (27UL650).
Option 2: Keep the 16: MBP and pair it with a 5k imac. With them in stock in the refurb store I was thinking of getting an i9/1TB SSD/VEGA 48. Keep things synced on Dropbox. Use the iMac at home and MacBook Pro at work/out of the house.
What would you go with?
