I’m still using my 2012 MacBook Pro desperately hoping they release a new 15-inch line without the Touch Bar. I had bought a MacBook pro with the Touch Bar and after a few weeks I just hated it more and more and returned it.

I’m still mad about them ditching MagSafe but I can get over that at least.

Same here with the Macbook Pro 2012. I upgraded its SSD cheaply using a mSATA adapter, something that's not possible with more recent models.

I don't see how this lack of upgradability meets the needs of "Pro" users.

Same here. I’m sticking with 2012 until Apple makes a MBP at least as good as it, from a usability and reliability perspective.

In the same position. Though I actually don’t like MagSafe that much. It falls out if you’re working on your lap, and the light is inconvenient if you charge at night. I much prefer the sound to notify charging.
