Bought new MacBook Pro Retina how long will it last?

Specs are in the signature. Just want some input on how long who guys think the machine will be supported with updates.

Two more years, maybe?
The 2011 ones just dropped out of High Sierra support, IIRC.

I thought all machines that supported Sierra support High Sierra

Ah, yes.

Should have looked it up:

Mid 2010 MBPs.

So, maybe three years?

Well, my mid 2009 17" runs 10.11, so that's 2015, which makes 6 years of OS X updates. I'm still using it now. Only looking to get a new machine because it's started to physically fall apart and behave a bit funky.
