Hello peeps, Need an advice on buying my next macbook.
My current laptop is, MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) 16 GB Ram / 1 TB SSD
bought in 2016 with the highest spec available wanting to use it for more than 4 years but it's becoming unusable now. Lagging under load.
Here are snapshots of my activity monitor
I am a product manager at a tech company. I do coding (web), bit of graphics work (photoshop), and lot of web browsing.
What are the culprits here as you think? Is it just the RAM or both RAM and GPU? For long term, should I get a 16" mac with 64 GB ram? or 13" with 32 GB is enough with intel graphics? I like the portability of 13"
Thank you

- Can't work while having a slack/zoom calls, specially when doing screen shares (without external monitor).
- Becomes unsable when doing heavy web browsing (lot of web based tools) (without external monitor)
