The latest M1-based MacBook Air is a joy to use and performs well above its weight.

Is it really that much faster than a well-specced Intel 2019/2020? Just wondering.

Or is it the battery life, low heat, etc... the full experience.

What about Pro? When to buy Pro or Air?

Only difference between Pro and Air M1 for now is Pro has fans and Touch Bar.

I'm using Air M1, and lack of fans hasn't been a problem so far.

Get one with 16GB ram if you can.

Have you tried 8gb vs 16gb?
