On one hand, you have a laptop which is built for more stressful work. This puts the 13-inch MBP in a tough spot. Not only that but the thermal limitation also hinders the performance of that i5 chip, so you won’t be noticing any gains when, say, rendering a video on Premiere Pro. So if you’re doing any heavy work on the notebook, you’ll find the fans spinning quite a lot more when compared to the 13-inch MacBook Pro. The new Intel chips in these laptops are really meant to provide short bursts of speed when you need it. In fact, there is no heatpipe! In theory, it makes some sense as the new chips are low-powered Y-series processors, which aren’t really meant for long-term loads. What that means is that the fan inside them isn’t connected to the heat pipe over the chip. Let it be known here that the MacBook Air laptops (or ultrabooks, if you prefer) are passively cooled. While the latter part is true if you ask most people, it’s the performance part where things tend to get a little tricky. Now the Air seems to have quite an advantage over the Pro, doesn’t it? On paper, this should translate to better performance & usability on the Air. Moreover, it also has a better keyboard and more storage over the original. At $1299, both MacBooks have an i5 processor, but the MacBook Air has an updated one at that. Now, this is where things start getting interesting. Paying about $300 more will get you the quad-core i5 processor which is the same one you get in the 13″ MBP. Now, with that said, let’s shift gears a bit.
AIRBOOK VS MACBOOK PRO
No one (if you’re smart) buys a MacBook Air to edit 4K videos on.ġ.1GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 (10th gen)Ģ020 Upgraded MacBook Air vs 13″ MacBook Pro (2019) The MacBook Air has always been the go-to laptop for everyday casual use. For people who are looking to get the base MacBook Air, it’s generally the macOS experience that they’re looking for.
