I bought my mid-2015 Macbook Pro in 2021. I've never been this satisfied with a (now) almost 9 year old laptop.

When this thing dies (in a couple more years), I'm definitely buying a second-hand M1 model. A lot of people buy second hand apple products. Even people that buy new, know they'll hold their value better than most other brands.

Still using my 2011 MacBook Pro… I’ve added 16GB RAM and a SSD, but it still works amazingly!
