I have a late 2013 that is getting me through my last semester of grad school right now. It does everything that I need it to do and more. It's sleek and I have zero issues with battery life.
Although I don't have an issue with USB-C it doesn't hold a candle to the convenience of the MagSafe connector on my MacBook Pro. Furthermore, my kids have a tendency to trip on the cord, which comes right off and doesn't take my notebook down with it.
I really don't think you'll be disappointed with any MacBook you choose. If sleekness and battery life are ultimately the most important then go with a MacBook. Everything has a give and a take.
