So currently i am using Dell xps 15 9560 and i am okay with it, but i wanna try a mac book pro coz i already use an iphone for the past three years i wanna sell my dell and get the mac book pro 2017 without touch bar.
What is your opinion is it worth ? 

No offense but if you assume MacOS is good just because IOS is...Well...You'd be wrong. Alots different.

idk anymore

tiny laptop screens SUCK especially if you are used to larger ones, Mac's are OVERPRICED, can't handle the thermal load and so run slower then they need to, have little to NO upgradability and frankly switching to them is like trying to learn another language, anything beyond basic opening and closing programs requires learning how to do it on a MAC compared to a PC, i've tried and flat out tell people that come to me for PC advice/repair that is they get a MAC to NOT call me because I WON'T touch them.

I'm sorry, but frankly, if you don't use final cut or reaaaaaally care about super security or some stuff, I honestly do not understand why would you put yourself into a limiting operating system where most programs don't work natively, where the company seriously screws you for money - you've seen Linus' Mac pro mess. You watch Luis Rossman get pissed about it, and I do too. 

 

I'd love to hear an argument about why he should switch. I have written this as unbiasedly as I possibly can - why would you want to play by someone else's rules?

 

 

I think the wiser move is to sell the iPhone and move to Android. 

 

PS. No touchscreen on the MacBook Will be annoying to adjust to.

I have the pixel 2 XL and I couldn't be happier. 3 can only be better, Google is excellent at bug fixing :)
