My top end 13 inch 2016 is mint, sure it could do with some different ports but to be honest I never need them, eGPU and 5K LG screen use USB-C/Thunderbolt.
I'm getting bit bored of folks banging on about how great the older MacBooks were, before this big refresh only the VERY top model had a GPU, are you kidding me?! Mid range 15inch MBP - No GPU. Now all the larger MBP's have one.
Kaby lake had brought speed improvements too, my 2017 geek benches higher in single core than the 2016 15 inch, let alone any older gens.
It feels to me people are just parroting the same old lines, and people believe them, even if they have are using the latest themselves, because everyone keeps saying the same thing it's got to be right, right? (no offence Jono, maybe they are not suited to your workflow).
I have a 2013 15inch and Apple Cinema Display too and compared to my newer set up they look and function like crap, I have to plug in 3 cables to use the screen! Are you fucking kidding me?! 3 cables!
(no excuse for losing magnasafe though).
