MBP 2017 almost a year later

[nph]

I am now looking back on almost a year w my 2017 MBP 15” and am mostly happy. Keyboard is a bit loud but I am now used to it and no key issues so far but I am still considering Applecare just in case.
Touchbar I actually find very useful.! I have been filling out a lot of forms since I am looking for a new job and the TB actually saves me a lot of time!
I still wonder at times if the 13” would have been better due to portability and seat space on planes etc.
But the reports on the battery life for the 13” seems less than stellar, I get around 7 hours in real world use on my 15” so I think that easily beats the 13”. Is this correct?

Overall I really like my MBP 15”!

This for sure, I have a friend that if he could go back in time he would buy the 13" instead 15", but depends also about your tasks.

Regarding battery life I'm not able to provide you a real and personal feedback, but you can read here:

Good luck with your choice!

my 13" TB gives me the expected 7-8 hours

Have a look at the battery life statistics https://luckyicon.com/en/software/batterytruth/stat/
Usually a 13-inch MacBook runs on a battery a bit longer than a 15"
