Macbook Pro M4 Pro/M4 vs Macbook Air M3 - Full Comparison

[@FahadAhmadi]

I prefer waiting for MacBook Air M4, I don't need the MacBook Pro M4 Pro or Max

[@fernandocornelis9397]

Check your sources, M3 MBA has Thunderbolt 3, not 4

[@tenzinsherab2803]

@ ohh you’re right! I m sorry

The difference being the number of displays. To qualify as TB4 the ports on the MacBook Air the would need to support more displays, which the M3 SoC can't, hence it's only labeled as USB 4. Which means it can still do up to 40 Gb/s. OTOH, the vanilla M4 _can_ support a display on each port on the Mini and MBP, hence those ports are labeled TB4.

@ thunderbolt 5 support how many displays?

[@atvo2950]

Surprisingly, the M4 Pro has a better battery life than the M3 Air?

MacBook Air m3 or wait for air m4? I cleaned my window laptop, about to buy air m3 bt now I am so confused! Help

[@kowalski864]

Just ordered an 14" M4 Pro coming from base model M2 Air (8GB/256GB). My workflow isn't that demanding but the 8GB has become an annoyance whenever I do something more intensive. Was thinking of M3 air 16gb/512gb, but it would be kind of a too boring upgrade and I like the SD card-slot (for photography) and the hdmi-out (for presentations). Also minor thing: usb-c charging from both sides of the laptop. It's my main and only computer which I use for work, so saving a few hunderd over the years doesn't really make a difference. 24GB RAM feels pretty future proof as well.

With or without nano texture? I also have a base m2 air. But i need a faster machine. I also want to upgrade to the 14 inch m4 pro. But I cannot decide on the Display

[@kowalski864]

@@thejailbreakchannel I went for the regular display as the laptop was way cheaper on Amazon than at the Apple store, but Amazon didn't offer the nano texture option. I haven't seen nanotexture in person and I work with text alot so I was also a bit hesitant because of that.

I just got mine from Amazon. They have the brand new M4 Pro base model $200 off right now

Should I get a m4 Mac mini or m4 MacBook Air when it comes out? This would be my first Mac and I had an iPad if it helps. Any recommendations anyone????

[@TheDanEdwards]

One is a desktop and the other is a portable laptop. That alone should be the deciding factor.

[@GmasterCrafter]

@ yeah it should, but having an iPad in between makes it more debatable. As well as is a keyboard, screen and battery worth that much more and the overall utility of a MacBook.

[@thejailbreakchannel]

When choosing between a Mac mini and a MacBook Air, consider your mobility needs and workflow: The Mac mini offers several advantages: it has a fan for more consistent performance, allows you to select your own monitor, keyboard, and mouse, and is typically more cost-effective. However, it's strictly a desktop solution. If you can confidently complete all your tasks using an iPad when away from home, the Mac mini could be an excellent choice. On the other hand, the MacBook Air provides ultimate flexibility. Its portability means you can work from anywhere and easily transition to a desktop setup by connecting external peripherals. If you anticipate needing to use specialized software, perform demanding tasks, or run applications with limited iPad functionality, the MacBook Air becomes the more practical option. Personally, I opted for a MacBook Air because my work requires coding and using software that either isn't available on iPad or is significantly limited in its mobile version. The key is to honestly assess your work requirements and choose the device that best supports your full range of computing needs.
