I have 2 ( yes 2 ) early 2015 MacBook Pro retinas and both screen were broken with a few weeks of each other,

I mainly use it for browsing, software development and occasional movie watching.

When I looked into repairing the screen prices varied from £300-400 including new screen and fitting

On eBay they are going for spares or repair for around £100 so

Stick- get one of then repaired and sell the other
Twist- sell them both put a couple of hundred extra and get a newer MacBook Air

The MacBook Pros are great especially early 2015 but I've heard that support might end soon ?

Thanks

Support has technically already ended. They don't even qualify for Ventura. I love my 2015 MacBook Pro as well but I was lucky, I had Apple Care and got everything repaired right before the cut off so it has lots of life left, but if I was in your position and could afford it these days, I would move onto at least an M1.
