What to choose MBP 13 and 15?

Question

macbook

Hello! I faced a very difficult choice of laptop. I want exclusively MB. Please help me choose between two laptops of this series: MVR 13 (265 GB SSD) and MVR 15 (265 GB SSD). The difference between them is in performance and, of course, in price. I myself study at the Faculty of Applied Informatics, 1st year. My tasks so far are not too resource-intensive: the basics of programming, working with files, surfing, not complicated graphics. Is 8GB of RAM enough? I want to take a little with a margin in advance, what do you advise, dear readers?

Answer 1

8 is enough for today, but 16 is better. Look at the diagonal from whether you will wear it more or work stationary, whether there are peripherals in place or there will only be a MacBook. For me personally, it turned out to be optimal to have a stationary maximum stuffed minicar + air 11 on the road, but then see for yourself what is more priority.

Answer 2

I have Air13 (mid2011) 4GB of RAM - I do what you listed. So far I don't feel the need to upgrade. If I had your choice now, I would take 15 because of the screen size. If I didn't own the car, I would take into account the weight. If you have experience wearing a laptop, then you yourself understand what it is about. If he is more immovable, then also 15.
In general, 13 only if low weight / dimensions are important.

Answer 3

I would take the MBP 13, the latest retina is very light and mobile and will fit in almost any bag, and if you need a larger screen, then there is only an external monitor
