Mablung Report post Posted May 31, 2024 For the tech people out there. Due to an unfortunate incident involving the collision of my laptop keyboard with neatsfoot oil, I have to replace my 2020 M1 MacBook Air. Trying to figure out if it makes sense for longevity to get an M3 Air over an M2. I don’t need to be able to lift heavy processing loads, as I don’t do video or photo editing or similarly processor-hungry tasks. Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If longevity’s a priority, the M3 Air is a better choice—it’s more efficient and future-proof with its newer 3nm chip. But if the M2 is significantly cheaper, it’ll still handle your needs just fine.
