13 or 15" MBPro, what configuration?

[mils71]

There are a lot of different configurations for both the 13 and 15" MBPro. I want 16GB memory and the version with the touch bar. Beyond that, I do a lot of research for papers that I'm writing, so I open a lot of tabs and often leave them open, while I'm also using Pages, Word, and/or Excel..
I watch movies once in a while and don't do any gaming. I use pages, word, powerpoint, one note sometimes, and do some photo editing but no video editing. Which MBPro would you suggest and which options?

Welcome to the forums. The 15" looks to be a Core i7 only. I highly doubt you will use that to it's fullest. On top of saving some cash, I would go with the 13" 256 GB storage. Your documents won't take up that much space, photos probably won't either.
