I am currently using the MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) with 16gb ram and a 250gb ssd. I have had to have the screen replaced for the lamination unsticking, and the fan replaced since it was starting to sound like a trash compactor. Apart from that these are decent laptops, I'd recommend the macbook air though which is what I had before, the screen is about the same for normal use (excluding photo editing) and it is much cheaper. Use either of these with a good 4kp60 monitor/mouse/kb and you're set. Get a desktop box with a couple 1080ti if you need to do number crunching and set it up in the corner..
