Pro.

Pro yo

pro

Pro 💜 You’ll love it, especially the speakers 😉

My MacBook Pro died yesterday and I am in need of a new one. But there aren’t much of a difference between Pro 13’ and Air 13’ m2 chip. I can’t decide 😭

Is there a big price difference? 👀💜

Not really. Air is a little cheaper

I always opt for the better one personally 🤷‍♂️💜 Less regrets that way.

💯

Damn this is a hard choice.

Here for you if you wanna discuss, rather call though, as any screen time is not good for my headache💜

Hahaha aww thank you 🫂💜

Depends on your needs.

💯

I need a computer that can handle my work, everyday life and some editing etc

Right!

If your work demands a lot from the machine -> pro

Right! Thank you 🫂

I went with the Air (from Pro) for portability. But I miss the extra USB-C ports. The air (m2 with 16gb ram) hasn't hit a slow down for what I do.

That’s nice to hear cuz there is a part of me that wants to try the Air. I’ve always had pro 💻

Depends on what you wanna do with it. Are going to use it for some resource consuming tasks, e.g video editing..?

Prob some, but not anything heavy. I would like to have the option to do so without worrying

Then go with the Pro 🫂

Thank you 💜🫂

My pleasure 💜

🫂💜💜

Kinda depends on what you need, if you’re going to be doing intensive computer work then Pro

Okay! I do editing here and there but nothing heavy

I think a Air could do that, they got a good computer chip M1 and M2 that can do that

Right! I am thinking about buying either Air 13’ M2 or the Pro 13’ M2. Have been looking into both of them, but there aren’t much of a difference.

Mmh you could probably walk away with the air and be fine to be honest, sounds like it’ll be able to run what you need

Yeah! I feel like at this point I just want the most out of my money in terms of my own use 😅

🤔 going all out I see hahahah

Hahaha yes. That is why I struggle to choose which one lol

When in doubt flip a coin 🤣 it’ll tell you exactly which on you really want if it doesn’t land in your favor

Great advice, thank you (not irony) 🫂💜💜

Make sure you look at the differences in the ports too. Pro has HDMI and SD slots, which might be helpful if you use external monitors for editing. Air is pretty much just thunderbolt/usb-c

Smart, Thank you!

Also Costco and maybe some other places still have new Pro M1s at steep discounts that will outperform an M2 air and have a better display/chassis at a similar price. I just bought one a couple months ago after thinking I would buy an air next!

Tbh the m2 air seems plenty. Only thing that might leave you wanting is screen size

Right! Thank you

It depends on what type work, etc you’ll need it for. For me, I prefer the pro

I am more used to Pro myself, but there aren’t as much difference between the pro and air anymore. This time, it’s mostly about the price 😅

This is true. 😄

Hahaha 🫂💜

It really depends on your requirement but if you have MacBook Air with M2 chip you will be fine.

Okay, because that’s the one I am thinking about buying 🫂🤙 Thank you

That's perfect for most of the users. I actually gifted my sister the same laptop for her birthday.

That’s very sweet of you 🫂 I think air should be fine for me but there is a part of me that always want to stick with pro cuz that’s what I am used to

Thank you. Recent Apple silicon is more than enough for most of the user. You can't go wrong with that.

but expensive

entry level android phones are the most costed down silicon on earth right now…

M1 or M2?

M2 but not M2 Pro

Touch Bar, yes or no?

Not that important

MacBook Air

Thanks 🫂

Save your money and buy a Lenovo. (Don't do that... I'm joking) 😃

Lmao hahahaha 😂😂

M2 Pro always

Hahaha I want the m2 pro chip, but so expensive 😭

it is expensive , go for student discount?

Hehe I wish. Not a student 😢

pfft! what is your exact purpose if you can

Apple computing is soooo overpriced 🚫

💯

But I’ll take that any day of the week over running Windows.

Yup 😂 sorry but for me it’s always Apple 😅💻

Coming from the guy that’s spilled drinks on 3 MacBooks I’m done with this shit lol had to move over to windows after destroying my 3rd

Fair 🤙

I love the Macbook Pro but the Air M1/M2 is apparently really good. So it depends on what you’re using it for. For developers or people producing some kind of media, I’d easily go for the Pro. For casual use such as Youtube, Word, web browsing in general, I’d probably go for the Air as it is cheaper.

The air is so much lighter... but it also has fewer resources so it's a tradeoff.

Yeah exactly. I believe the air doesn’t actually have a fan?

Correct

Exactly

I honestly kinda prefer the air, but technically need a pro. Got both at the moment. 😅

True! I do edit but no heavy editing. Have been looking into Pro 13’ M2 and Air 13’ M2 but there isn’t much of a difference between the two

What are you going to be using it for?

Work, everyday and some light film/photo editing. But I use my computer for everything so…

Everything…. Go Pro then.

Thank you 🤙

Definitely a pro

M2 chip in the air has the same specs as the pro. I personally think the air is decent. All depends on use. They are overpriced but some countries cheaper than others. Europe is overpriced for apple

Thank you for all the advice 🙏
