MacBook Air or Pro? 13” or 16”? What do you guys have? This will be mainly used for my Master’s. I have an iPad Pro but am thinking of trading it in for a laptop since there are obvious limitations.

Since you say it will be used mainly for your Masters, do you specifically need a laptop? Asking because I recently went through the same pros/cons lists for the two and ultimately went with the Mac Mini instead of either- and couldn’t be happier.

I unfortunately will need a laptop. I’ve been using my work laptop but have found that the two AD accounts are conflicting my access and I’d ultimately like to separate the two because I tend to work when I get on my work laptop. Eventually I’ll need to access virtuals as well but for now using Project/Visio is a must.

Depending on what software programs you’ll be running concurrently - I just got my SO the Mb Pro 13 with M1 chip. If you just need pure internet and Word docs, I’d go with Air.

Did you choose the 13” for portability or price? I’m leaning towards the smaller screen just for convenience. Thank you!
