I’m really debating between these two screen sizes.

I mostly use my computer with a monitor, but will occasionally work on it in the kitchen when it in meetings.

My current laptop is 14” and I’m not sure how much of a difference 15” really is over the 13” model.

What is your experience?

If I get the 13” I might use the savings to get a 1tb hard drive which I think is important to me.

I liked my 13” pro for school and have had it for ten years, easy to fit on desks and still have space for a notebook, also if you every plan to use it on flights the 15 is big enough to be pretty awkward.

I don’t use my 13 with monitors very much, so I’m looking at sizing up to a 16” this year. If you plan on primarily having it connected to monitors then a bigger screen on the laptop itself probably won’t matter to you.

Thanks! I’ll actually be buying it when I visit America. My return flight with layover is 33 hours, so maybe 13” is better.
