I am looking for a Macbook. My workload will be browsing, officeworks (Word, Excel), Photo editing and light Video editing. Which one should i go for? I want to atleast keep it for 5-6 Years.
- Macbook Air M2 (16 GB Ram) 512 GB
- Macbook Pro M3 (8 GB Ram) 512GB
M2 with 16GB is better.
8GB of RAM, no matter how much Apple likes to say otherwise, is not the equivalent of 16GB on PC and 8GB is barely enough to run a web browser + a random program.
8GB is the bare minimum you want for casual use. You need/want more for photo and video editing.
That price makes no sense…. I have a 16 gb 1 TB MacBook Air and it cost like 1799
It's Australian lol. Office works from the looks of it.
I spent a similar amount on my MacBook Pro 14, 512gb.
I personally believe that the better speakers, display and webcam make up for the additional cost. But then again I don’t have the need for that much storage.
