I have a 13" MBP and I'm kinda sick of the small screen. I think I want my next laptop to be huge screen wise, but as light and cool as possible. Is that too much to ask? Hooking up to the monitor is annoying so I only do it when I *really* need the real estate.

What's the annoyance about monitor hookup? I went through a similar motion, swapped 13 for 15, but tired of the heft.

I don't like working in a single place. I tend to move around the house, and spend most of my time in an armchair rather than the desk where I have the monitor.

I struggled the most with MBP 15 sitting in armchair. Not sure about current state of the temperature but 2017 version wasn't equipped for heavy work as a laptop

So it was mainly the heating that was the problem, not the weight? I think the newer M1 based ones should run much cooler. 2017 would be 14nm intel stuff...

The weight annoyed enough that I almost bought largest one, then compared weight specs and immediately switched purchase to the 13.
