Is it better to take a used MJLU2 (i7 2.8/1TB/16/2gb Radeon) or a new MJLQ2 (i7 2.2/256/16)?

Question

macbook

Hello!
There was a choice about buying a new laptop, since the current one will need to be returned back.
A laptop is needed for web development (Node.js/Docker/React/Vue).
It is possible to take a new one, but weaker or used, but stronger. They ask for the same money. Since these macbooks are from 2015, the choice is very limited (for example, MJLU2 did not find a new one).
I do not consider options for 2016-2019.
Is it worth taking any of these models? Or wait for a conference where (probably) there will be 16"?
Thank you!

Answer 1

I do not consider options for 2016-2019.

Very much in vain.
4-year-old used computer - well, such a pleasure actually. When it comes to Apple, I would always avoid used purchases, simply because there are a lot of hucksters on the market who carry packs of these devices from China / Europe / USA that have various breakdowns, then collect Frankensteins from them and sell them under the guise of "not a bit, not painted."
You are looking at two laptops, the most stuffing and the weakest of the 2015s, maybe there is an opportunity to add a bit and take the one in the middle with 2.5 (which is MJLT2)?
Just for reference, macbook 13 2019 will be more powerful even in the weakest configuration (which is with a 1.4 processor), more powerful even than MJLU2 and cheaper.

Answer 2

I would take the one that is more powerful, I have been sitting on 256GB since 15 2018, everything is fine, but there is not enough memory.
