What to choose: Macbook Pro 2015 vs Macbook Pro 2016?

I came to the store for MPB 2015 with discrete graphics, and was horrified to find that there were no new MJLT2RU / A left in St. Petersburg at all.
Only models without discrete graphics remained. In DNS I looked at MJLT2RU/A with the package opened, but not in the window, 11 charge cycles, there are traces of use, obviously handed over - I don’t want to take one.
Now I'm faced with a choice:

  1. Macbook Pro 2016 - with discrete graphics, but no normal USB connectors, no SD-Card reader (which is important to me), no MacSafe, no row of F keys, and a strange keyboard.
  2. Macbook Pro 2015 - no discrete graphics, but with USB, SD-Card reader, MacSafe, normal keyboard.

A laptop is needed for development, graphics, video editing, not very frequent distraction for games.
How much does it interfere with the presence of exclusively integrated graphics?
MBP 2016 '15 owners:
How's life with his keyboard without MacSafe?
How well built and durable?
It became interesting how risky such offers are on Avito: https://www.avito.ru/sankt-peterburg/noutbuki/appl... ?

I have experience with firmware 2016. You get used to the touchbar in a week. The need to carry a bunch of adapters with you is annoying.
But if I took such a laptop for myself, I would take it 5-7 years ahead. So my vote is for Macbook Pro 2016 .

I have been using the new Macbook pro 2016 15' for a week now and I can say that the discrete graphics are very powerful, the ports somehow do not bother me, because I still carry it in my bag, where they are all the adapters (3), the row of F keys remains, they are called by pressing Fn on the keyboard, the touchbar can be customized, the keyboard is very comfortable, do not give in to the first sensations, after 3 days of active typing you will be convinced of the superiority of this keyboard, the trackpad has become even larger and it is simply gorgeous. The internal ssd drive has become even faster and the processor is more powerful. Definitely this macbook pro will be with me for the next 6 years, so I advise you to purchase

Regarding the purchase on Avito, be careful. A lot of scammers with stories that they didn’t use at all, gave as a gift, and so on.
