Hi everyone,

I have a:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Sometimes I feel it a little bit slow whilst using Excel or looking at Photos, using OneDrive.

I understand it will become obsolete in a year or so.

Do you reckon I should change for the new MBP?

Thanks!
 
If you got the money and want a new one, go for it. For me, I keep mine till it either dies or I can no longer do the things I need to do. My 2011 17" finally died (GPU failure) so I got a new 2018. The new 2018 13" 4 core ones would be a nice upgrade.
[doublepost=1532126685][/doublepost]Oh, your poll says wait for the 2018? They have been out for a week now.
 
poll is confusing, new MacBook Pro IS the 2018 MacBook Pro. But I recommend going for the new one, it's a huge upgrade.

Think he wants to wait for 2018 MacBook, not Pro.

One drive is more likely network related than anything else. It constantly tries to keep the content on your system and in the cloud in sync.
