Hello,

I can get the 2016 m3 with 256 ssd for 770€ or the 2015 m7 with 512ssd for 1000€. I dont know what to do, I dont really need more than 256gb... Is it very different the 2015 m7 and the 2016 m3 in day by day use? I'm a regular user.

Note: 2016 has more than 1 year of warranty remaining. 2015 has no warranty.

Thank you.

well considering that you can buy a 1tb Samsung Evo 850 for ~300 or an mx300 for ~250, I myself would opt for the 2016 and upgrade it. You end up with a new macbook with twice the storage for about the same price. I'm guessing on pricing where you are...

Put the 256 in a usb3 drive enclosure and you have yourself a speedy backup device, another ~ 150 savings :)
