Early 2013 15" or Early 2015 13" MBP? (upgrading from 2014 MBA)

Is MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) with 16 GB RAM better than MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) with 8 GB RAM despite the former's processor not having AVX2 support?

I am upgrading from a 2014 MBA (8 GB RAM/128 GB SSD) by the way. Need something that's better than my 2014 MBA for a smoother Sequoia OCLP experience without breaking the bank.

Another reason why I am asking this is because I am currently dealing with a seller that has two of these MBPs in their inventory, so I am not sure which one to take home.

Help me decide please.. thank you 🙏
