If you were concerned about longevity, you may be better of buying two midranged devices over the timespan of the one speced out device. Price to performance ratio for most electronics is exponential, meaning it's pretty linear at the budget/ midrange but once you get to the high end, prices skyrocket and isn't necessarily proportional to the value you get out of it. The only time I can see it making sense is if you need that high performance now, like your profession demand a speced out MacBook for certain task (Hardcore video editing or something). From a practical standpoint it doesn't make much sense most of the time.
In my opinion, other than the fact that futureproofing is cool. This subreddit is not endorsed or sponsored by Apple Inc. If you'd like to view their content together, click here. This fundamental difference in audience is why we support two communities, r/Apple and r/AppleHelp. Apple SubredditsĬontent which benefits the community (news, rumors, and discussions) is valued over content which benefits only the individual (technical questions, help buying/selling, rants, etc.).
