Hi everybody.
This is my problem. Im a macbook pro user since 2014. Last year, my unit suffer a "water attack" and after many tries to get fixed, it just went off.
Im literally about to make a decisión, but I really im ignorant about new updates, since I havent upgrade mine I all this time.

Im about to get the 2019 Macbook pro 13inch with 8gb/128ssd (economic reason).
But just now, thanks from a friend, someone offer me a mid 2015 macbook pro 15inch with 16gb/512ssd New on sealed box, never opened before.

The processor of the mid 2015 model is
2.2GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 if im correct, while the one on the 2019 is 1.4GHz quad-core 8th-generation Intel Core i5 processor.

I know the pros and cons on hardware, I like the old model because of the USBs, hdmi, card reader and im conform with the model.
Negative, 6 month seller warranty.

The New one im just curious about the touch bar, and New processor. Possitive, 1 year warranty.

I always prefer 13inch for the portability, but 15 is not a problem.

But simply and forward, wich one is better macbook? Resuming power, processor, and full specs.
Can you help me decide? Since is only 1 stock of the 2015 one.

Thanks in advance to everybody Who took the time to read this!
Kind regards,
Leandro.
 
The 2015 will have faster SSD and wifi. It may likely have faster GPU. CPU might be comparable.
6 month warranty vs 12 months.

Given the keyboard issues on the current generation, if you don't need portability I might take the 15". More RAM, larger SSD.
