The 2015 MacBook Pro was an absolute tank for me. I recently replaced it with an M1 Air, which so far has been incredible. Dare I say the best laptop I have ever used. The keyboard is great, even better than the 2015 pro and Touch ID is great to have as well.
I think Apple has learned some lessons, they fixed the keyboards, they added a physical Touch ID button, and it seems like the divisive Touch Bar is probably going to fade away, or at least be optional.
I think OSX could use an update that focuses on power users and the finder, but other than that I am pretty happy with the current state of the Mac.
Agreed - I've used virtually all the variants starting back with Powerbooks. I think the 2015 MBP Retina was the most durable, reliable machine I've personally used.
My only complaint is non-upgradable RAM - if it had upgradable RAM, I'd keep using mine well into the future.
