@cdevroe Thanks for writing that review. I've been pretty sure the 16-inch should be my next computer, but I've been dragging my feet because of the price, and a little uncertainty that it will match how much I love the 2014-era MacBook Pros.
@manton I feel as though I need to use it in a few more contexts, especially coworking which isn't happening at all right now, before I know for sure that I like it as much or better than that era of MBPs. I'll keep you posted. But, it is a screamer of a computer.
@cdevroe Thank you for the hopeful perspective. I think I will use my 2012 MBP as gently as possible until it dies. I am holding out in the (vain) hope that we eventually get ports back and an option without the Touch Bar. The loss of MagSafe is totally bizarre to me as well.
@cdevroe That one has been tempting me since it came out. But with a processor transition looming I'm holding off until we hear more about the timing, hopefully at WWDC this month. However if I needed a new MBP I'd definitely go with the 16".
@fgtech My guess is that the 16-inch MBP ARM-edition won't be ready until at least late 2021 if not 2022. So I didn't hesitate to buy one when I needed one.
@ronguest Forgot to include you in the other reply… but I doubt we'll see a 16-inch Mac for 18-24 months. So I had no hesitation to buy this one now. I'm glad I did.
@cdevroe I imagine the transition will take some time, especially at the high end. Still I'm curious to hear the roadmap first.
