Recommended for use
Business use, On the go, Photo editing, School, Spreadsheets and presentations, Streaming movies and series, Video editingOur digital expert will help you, but it can sometimes make mistakes, like humans do.
According to our laptop expert
With the Apple MacBook Air, you can easily work on demanding tasks and open demanding apps without problems.
With the Apple M4 chip, you can open most apps without any problems and connect up to 2 extra screens.
This model easily fits in your bag thanks to the small 13-inch screen.
If you want to use the best screen and the heaviest professional apps, you'll need the MacBook Pro.
On the small 13-inch screen, you can see details less clearly and keep less of an overview of your files.

Business use, On the go, Photo editing, School, Spreadsheets and presentations, Streaming movies and series, Video editing13 inch I think is a nice size to take with you. Home use can be combined with a large 2nd screen. I switched from Windows 10 to iOS sequoia 15; it took some figuring out and getting used to, but after 2-3 days of trying and finding out (good support from Apple) it is now running well. I did buy an Office package for iOS to make the transition not too big. In short: very satisfied after 14 days.

I chose Starlight and I'm very happy with it. This color is more soothing on the eyes than the lighter blue. A beautiful, warm color.

At 13 inches and weighing, apparently, 1.24 kilos, this is a very good laptop for people who value portability. The 15-inch version, which is also available, offers more workspace. For me and my usage, the compactness is a major plus, and with the aluminum casing, it is truly a wonderfully designed machine.
The 16GB of RAM, which is finally becoming standard these days, is a breath of fresh air compared to the 8GB that used to be common. It is a very welcome upgrade, making even the entry-level model perfectly fine for the vast majority of users. I personally opted for a storage upgrade, because 256GB is quite low as a base, especially if you do a lot with photos and particularly videos. 256GB sounds like a lot, but modern operating systems and applications take up much more storage than they used to, and the average smartphone takes high-quality photos—resulting in large file sizes. The M-series processor, now in its fourth iteration, is fast and is essentially only hampered by throttling down during prolonged high performance demands. Ironically, the Air lacks active air cooling. Therefore, when rendering a video, for example, performance drops slightly to keep the temperature acceptable. The advantage of this, of course, is that there are no moving parts inside the laptop, which can be beneficial for its lifespan. If you really need high performance frequently for extended periods, an actively cooled Pro might be a better choice.
Build quality is truly amazing. Apple has historically had issues too, such as with screen coatings or substandard keyboards that often broke, but the current design has lasted for 2.5 years now (since the M2 Airs) and, as far as is known, there are no structural problems. The aluminum construction, the large glass trackpad—it all feels very high-quality.
The screen, then. The resolution is still high, the image is sharp, and it has high peak brightness. The 60Hz refresh rate could be mentioned as critical points – many smartphones do better in that regard, and with televisions too, 60Hz is more the exception than the rule, with us often seeing 100-120 refreshes per second instead of 60. And yes, this is an entry-level laptop, but in absolute terms, they are not cheap, and the difference compared to, for example, the mini-LED screens of the Pro is noticeable. However, because the screen still performs very well in terms of color accuracy, sharpness, and brightness, I can worry a little less about this.
