I’ve really been contemplating over moving from a 16” to a 14” MacBook Pro. I take my 16” everywhere I go with me every day. While I love it, it is a pain carrying it around and its also not the best when it comes to putting it in a backpack underneath an airplane seat, and forget about using it on the airplane.

Has anyone done this and regretting losing the 2” of screen real estate? Any thoughts on this would be helpful. Thanks!
 
I was on a 4am flight a few weeks ago, this lady next to me pulled out her 16' pro and used it in economy, AT 4AM.
I was shocked at literally how massive it was and even more shocked that she would use it, IN THE MIDDLE SEAT. haha if you travel with it often, the 14' would make more sense likely. or heck depending on your work flow, maybe a 13' Air 🙂
 
I’m not as mobile as I use to be since I’ve retired. I initially purchased the 14” and I quickly returned it and opted for the 16”. I couldn’t be happier.
