Pros

  • I got an M2 Air and my gf has an M2 Pro, both 13”. To me, my Air looks and feels much more modern and comfortable so I’d go for Air any day of the week. Granted I don’t do any heavy tasks on it, mostly browser, video calls, notion, etc....
  • I bought my 2023 M2 Pro 32gb ram 1TB ssd for abt $3000 usd when it came out.
  • If you do gaming I would instead recommend buying a MacBook Pro with the M2 pro chip. Get the same configuration- storage, and RAM. The chip is basically the same strength, if not better on the M2 Pro, and it has fans which would prevent...
  • I just got a new projector (Hisense M2 Pro), and have noticed how marked up the current screen is.
  • Get the M2 Pro. And lots of RAM if possible.

Cons

  • This was tested extensively when the M3 Pro came out with fewer faster cores than the M2 Pro.
  • Parent context: Yes the M1 Air will be whisper quiet because it has no fans. Reply: You nailed. Try a m2 pro on blender is a jet engine

I got an M2 Air and my gf has an M2 Pro, both 13”. To me, my Air looks and feels much more modern and comfortable so I’d go for Air any day of the week. Granted I don’t do any heavy tasks on it, mostly browser, video calls, notion, etc. If your workload is on the heavier side, you’d probably be a bit better off with Pro

If you do gaming I would instead recommend buying a MacBook Pro with the M2 pro chip. Get the same configuration- storage, and RAM. The chip is basically the same strength, if not better on the M2 Pro, and it has fans which would prevent the Air from overheating.

I use an M2 Pro MBP every day for work and personal stuff. (I own it.) The keyboard is great, the trackpad is fantastic, the screen is very nice and it can deliver high performance and long battery life.

Pixel also has a Titan M2 processor. This should provide even more security at hardware level.
