Apple’s MacBook Air and MacBook Pro compared: find out what’s different, who each model’s best for, and whether to buy the 14-inch MacBook Pro or a 13-inch or 15-inch MacBook Air.
Apple currently sells two laptop lines. The MacBook Pro and MacBook Air. The MacBook Pro comes with a 14-inch or 16-inch display (there used to be a 13-inch MacBook Pro, but Apple discontinued that model) and the MacBook Air with either a 13.3-inch display, 13.6-inch display, or a 15-inch display. That is a lot of Mac laptops, and among those models are an even wider range of specs.

There are 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models powered by M3 Pro or M3 Mac chips that are better suited to pro users and have much higher prices, so we won’t be including them here. But if you are thinking your needs might extend a little further on the pro side, you may be interested to read Which MacBook Pro or our guide to all of Apple’s laptops.
