Thank you a really useful breakdown guide on the MacBook range, I really wanted the Air for the lightness but have gone for the 16” M3 Max 64GB Ram for the speed and extra ports, it severely made me broke, but it just means I got to get some more £££ in and hopefully with a faster machine I will!

Thanks for the lineup review and recommendations. I purchased a refurb'd M1 Pro MBP 14 (16GB/1TB) last July and for me it is the perfect travel device. Regarding external storage, I picked up a trick several years ago when I transitioned (mostly) from Windows. I format the drives with exFAT so that I can read and write to them from either my Macs or my Windows gaming computer.

I have a couple of questions. Should I wait for the upcoming M4 macs rumored for late 2024 or just buy the M3 now? I currently use the 2016 MacBook pro so it’s due for an upgrade especially because it doesn’t support software updates anymore. I do 3d design work but am also a student so, I need performance but also portability. Budget is not an issue because I am going to be using it for 8-10 years and I want something that will last performance wise. I checked on my iMac and I am using at least 32 g of RAM. I was thinking of waiting for the M4 max 14’ but those would probably have the same overheating issue as the current gen so I am not opposed to the 16’. What do you guys suggest I buy?

Personally, before watching this video, I purchased a refurbished 15 inch base model M2 Air from Apple with only 6 battery cycles for $1019 about 2 wks ago. I only use my notebook for simple browing, YouTube, reading, etc. Essentially the lightest use case possible for most people and I wanted a larger screen for viewing which was why I didn't opt for the cheaper m1 Air or the 13 inch m2. I think for people like me, this is a perfect choice! The battery life, display size and brightness, and speakers are beyond great for regular usage

I have M1 Air with 8GB memory and 512GB SSD, and keep changing my mind because I am also high school student, who uses lightroom, photoshop, and blender. This is why I keep changing my mind. The price difference between M3 Air 15 and 14 inch m3 with 16GB is close. What should I choose? Should I go for the long run or just upgrade whenever I need to?

Which model should I get? ( 1st time thinking of a macbook pro, I do visual communications ( student for now ). 14pro or 16pro? or 15 air? Also which version would be ideal? I would have access to the apple education discount as well. Im clueless seeking advice / help / tips greatly appreciated !
sooooo context is that I currently own a Legion Pro 5 16IRX8 , 4060, 32ram, 1tb space , 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900HX. However it is heavy af .... because its a 16 laptop if im not wrong? but ofcos its legion so its meant to be heavy.... the issue is that my battery life is not so high when I do some school work and I have to be plugged in to better use my laptop performance otherwise it will cause some lag ?? I have changed some settings which helps with battery life but Im just wondering if getting a macbook pro/air is worth it at all? and like would it be better than my current specs as of now? and how much battery life am i expecting.
Basically in short, the macbook is meant for bringing to school so its easier on my back ache and I can bring it out to cafe etc to study at the same time while leaving my legion at home as the main work desk etc i guess ?
looking to do graphic design related in the future and also self learning blender here and there( ofcos I have my legion to run the 3d software) the macbook probably will target more of photoshop/illustrator/premier pro and such...
Im open to hear all kinds of replies so do hit me with your reasons and suggestions :)
thank you

I have used both the M1 MBA 13 inch from my previous workplace and had personally bought the M2 MBA 13 inch a month ago, and I'm loving the portability of either laptops. The M2 MBA is an absolute beast and I'm loving the Midnight Color and design despite the fingerprints. I totally agree with your opinions! I totally believe MBP is the way to go, but portability and cost-wise, MBA is a very reliable machine to be used for a good couple of years. .

M1 air refurbished through apple with 16GB memory and 512GB SSD is $1099 which I was considering but I ended up going with open box good condition base M1 Air Gold from Best Buy for $605. It's in perfect condition and I'm only using this for taxes, typing long emails, Figma in browser, making invitations for parties and light stuff I don't want to use my iPad on and it's been amazing. I use my company issued laptop 16" M2 Max with 64GB memory for engineering work and that thing is way too overpowered and heavy for what I do in my personal life. Great content!
