Apple does in-house development and production of chips. That\u2019s why all its laptops produced after 2021 feature M1, M2, or M3 processors.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The most prominent distinction between\u00a0MacBook Air and MacBook Pro\u00a0is that the more productive Pro or Max CPUs are only installed on the Pro variants.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The tapered angles of the MacBook Air have been replaced with a design that is more in line with the MacBook Pros. It features a camera notch and thinner bezels. The overall design of the latest MacBook Pro is identical to that of its M2-enabled precedent.\u00a0The difference is that\u00a0it also comes in the gorgeous new color Space Black, which is limited to models with M3 Pro and M3 Max CPUs.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The\u00a0MacBook Air with 13 diagonal<\/a> weights only 1.22 kilograms and the\u00a015-inch \u2013 1.5 kilograms are the lightest laptops in terms of portability. Despite its weight of 1.6 kilos, the\u00a0MacBook Pro with 14-inch diagonal is nevertheless pretty portable. The 16-inch model weighs over 2 kilos. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
