I was waiting on the 2016 Macbook Pro, and I still think I might buy it. Not yet, but I'm thinking on it. (I'll wait at least a month to see more comprehensive benchmarks on battery).
Anyways.
I originally wanted to purchase a 13-inch. I thought all I needed was a 13 inch screen, the portability is great, and the price was much lower than the 15-inch (in 2015). Then everything changed. Late 2016 releases rolled around.
The only reason I didn't consider the 15 inch was because comparatively, it was much more expensive.
Now, the 13-inch with 16GB RAM (really important moving into 2017 honestly), is TOO close in price to the 15-inch 2016 model. In addition, the portability gap has been closed... the 15 inch fits into a much more portable category.
So I'm sort-of caught in a weird situation. I want a 15-inch, but the price is too high. But then when I look to the 13-inch, it's so close in price to the 15-inch. Leaves me wondering what I really will buy.
