Should I Buy 16 Inch or 14 Inch? (alien.top)

Should I buy the 16 Inch MacBook Pro M3 Pro or 14 Inch MacBook Pro M3 Pro? For some context I will be using it for graphic design and apps such as Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I am at home 90% of the time and the only time I would be using it outside, would be when I am at school. Either way, I will be using a 27 inch monitor whether I get the 16 Inch or 14 Inch. I am also running a business. What do you guys suggest?

For me personally, i went with the 14 inch cause the 16inch just felt too big for me to carry around in my bag and at home it would be connected to a monitor (just like in your case) so the screen size at home would be irrelevant. The 14inch screen size is perfect for me tbh and have no regrets.

Only you can make the decision in the end, as you know your own preference.

For me, it's about the weight. The 16" is that much heavier that I chose to go with a 14". For reference, I am a developer and also have a 27" monitor (Studio Display). I think 14" is the right size for almost everyone.
