Apple's 15" MacBook Air is REALLY GOOD, but can it beat the infamous 14" MacBook Pro?

Still getting the MBA 15". Thinner. Better battery. Silent. Bigger. Very powerful compared to most windows laptops at same costs. Can be much cheaper depending on the configurations chosen. Given that we are far from all being video editors, for 90% of people, this 15" MBA will be more than enough and for a very long time.

Yes, when adding the extra RAM and SSD on the 15" Air, the 14" macbook pro is better choice with M2 Pro, better screen @ that price point. But, for most folks and usage, the base config with larger screen 15" Macbook Air, it's slim design and price is hard to beat.

So including tests for all kinds of consumers makes the most sense.

I had first purchased a M2 MacBook Air in January. With the lack of active cooling it gets very hot. It is forced to down clock. I returned it in favor of my MacBook M1 Pro. I still use a pad to lift it because it also gets pretty warm. But it doesn’t seem to bog down.

The 15" Air is great for office and photo editing where screen size is more important; the 14" Pro is more important for demanding tasks and still a decent screen size. Between both I would go for the 14" Pro as for what the Air does, I would choose a much cheaper windows machine / surface pro.

I was on the fence til I actually went to the Apple Store and compared them side by side. 15in was the clear winner for me, felt so comfortable to hold and I like to have my laptop on my lap sometimes which was way nicer with the 15in. I also noticed having that extra screen size made more of a difference than pixel density which for me personally I could not tell the difference and I really tried hahah. I’m never going to be moving 500 photo files lol, I don’t even know what half those programs are anyway. If you do this professionally (ie your full time job is photos or videos etc) get the pro of course, but for everyone else the air has such a cool design, fun to hold and move, great size screen, and more than enough performance for non professionals. And it doesn’t hurt that it’s a more aesthetically attractive laptop because after all we do have to look at it every day. It’s one of those products where I smile just admiring the sleekness and design. Anyway, go to an Apple Store if you can and actually interact with them physically before choosing based on just numbers. This is a product most of us will need to be holding and moving daily, so give it a test drive! ;)

I did the same thing! After ordering a MBA 15" while in order transit I saw the M3 presentation from Apple and considered getting the M3 Pro 14" especially after watching comparison reviews, but when I went in person to the store and felt the computers side by side the Pro 14" felt like a big clunker with bad design imo. I also felt almost no visible upgrade from the MBA 13" in terms of screen real estate, which was one of the bigger decisions, because I don't prefer hooking the laptop up to an external monitor if part of the reason I'm buying it is for screen display. I'm sure that if you're doing heavy duty lifting on Macbook Pro such as video editing then this is the right laptop; however, in an ideal world I would have the MBA 15" for my daily user and the MBP for work such as coding, video editing, etc. On a side note the MBP 16" felt almost too big, but would likely be the ideal choice for me if budget is not a concern.

Upgrading from a late 2016 MBP 15" so I'm completely stumped on whether I should go with the M2 MacBook Air or break the bank and get a M2 16" MacBook Pro/Max. I use Logic Pro X and am wanting to dig into Final Cut Pro (I've been stuck in iMovie for six years). My 2016 MPB display went completely out so I'm using it in docked mode but it stutters a lot trying to work with 4K video in iMovie. I typically make about 20-25 videos about 20 minutes in length each year as is but I don't know how much of an upgrade the Air would be from that 2016 MBP or if jumping to the M2 Pro or M2 Max would be way too much overkill functionally or financially.

I will always take the Pro; the screen quality is significantly better, with black levels that are just as black as OLED, since the Mini LEDs in those zones, where the image is completely black, is basically turned off, so no light comes out. I’m not going back to grey or purplish blacks.

I purchased a MBA 15" specifically for its portability, screen size, battery life and "good nuff" performance; however, I am livid that the MBA 15" that has same M2 as a Mac Mini cannot support more than one monitor. I tried displaylink, Thunderbolt 4 docking stations all to no avail. Apple nerfed multi-monitor support on the MBA.

Idk why nobody talks about screen ghosting issue (you can see it in the video during frame rate comparison in slow motion) in macbooks. It's so prominent to my eyes that i can feel it in real life.Being a windows laptop user for 10 years, looking at macbook displays hurts my head. Sometimes I feel tempted to switch to mac because of the stability which macOS brings to the table. But as soon as I look at the display, I instantly change my mind.

I have had three MacBook Pro's, two 13" and one 15"...I am on a ASUS Zephyrus G14 right now after my Blade 14 broke....I think 14" is truly the best sized laptop if you already have a good workstation and need the best balance of portable but still large sized screen.

We waited for the first reviews of the 15" then ordered a 14" Pro which arrived yesterday. Very happy with the 14" Pro, this is our first M2 version but we have 2 14" M1 base models which have been amazing (I have 4 sons, converting them one at a time to Tim's walled garden).

The biggest problem with the MBA is the 1 external monitor support. For users who don't need pro functions but have an office set-up with two monitors they only need a MBA but because of the external monitor support is pushed to the MBP. This is assuming they need a laptop otherwise of course the Mac Mini makes most sense. Now the 15" MBA is really only the clear option over the 13" if the extra screen real estate makes an important difference. If the MacBook display is one's primary display, it's well worth going for the 15". But if you have an office set-up, then the 13" makes most sense. Except, because of the 1 external monitor display support. Because of all this, I would say the 15" MBA for most non-pro users makes most sense unless one needs 2 external monitors. Then the M1 14" MBP is the clear option in terms of value.

This video was a big help! I was going to get the 15” M2 MacBook Air with 16GB memory and 512GB SSD for $1499 on a Black Friday sale because that was about my budget, but decided to check refurbished units and ended up getting a refurbished 14” M2 Pro MacBook Pro base model for $1599. I think for only $100 more that was the better choice, even though it might be a bit overkill for my needs. I figure it’ll have better longevity.

The pro is too bulky and the air has heating problems. Going back to using dedicated ports is a pain as adding additional thunderbolt ports would have been better. Four thunderbolt ports on each side would have been great. The air is sexy and the 15 inch is perfect. It just needs vents and it could be considered a semi-pro machine. In all, the older pros (that required dongles) were my favorites. I like that the Touch Bar is no more, but that’s about it.

I am having trouble deciding which of the MacBooks has the best screen for reading, clarity and sharpness. I realize that the MacBook Pro technically has a better screen but when it comes down to reading, clarity and sharpness, should a person be looking to purchase the MacBook Pro M2 Pro 14” or the new MacBook Air M2 15” ? Your insight on this would be greatly appreciated.
