2016 MBP TB vs 2017 MBP TB

[samkim4415]

Hi everybody, just wanted to get some tips and advice on buying a MacBook Pro.

I’m debating between a refurb 13” MBP TB 2016 vs 13” MBP TB 2017. The pricing is different with the 2016 being $1349 on the Apple store and 2017 being $1529.

Is there that much of a difference with the specs inside with the processor? I read on here that the keyboard is different?

I’m just a casual user that uses the computer for work with Microsoft office and internet browsing and video calls.

I do want to use this computer for at least the next 5 years.

Please give some input into it. I’m looking into buying today.

JUst casual things like the ones described? Save moolah and get the 2016 model.

2016 or 2017 MBP - keyboard differences?
2016 or 2017 MBP?

Those two are just from the first page of the MBP forums here. Haven't even bothered looking at page 2, where I bet there are at least two more of these...
