It may be tough to compete with these beefy Pro machines, but the 2022 MacBook Air shows some promise with these nice quality-of-life improvements. Type-C, 30W or 35W dual (fast-charge with 67W power adapter)
MAC PRO 2017 WORTH IT FULL
We’ll have to see how the new MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro shake out in our full review, but in the meantime, here’s how they compare to the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops in a spec-for-spec comparison.Ģ022 MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro versus 2021 MacBook Pros SpecificationĪpple M1 Pro 8-core or 10-core or M1 Max 10-coreĪpple M1 Pro 14-core, 16-core or Apple M1 Max 24-core, 32-coreĢ x USB 4.0 with Thunderbolt 4 support, MagSafe 3 Portģ x USB 4.0 with Thunderbolt 4 support, SDXC card slot, HDMI, MagSafe 3 Port Frankly, it seems like an odd choice that this MacBook Pro is sticking around with a dated design and input method that’s all but phased out, but it’s going to start at $1,299 when it also launches in July. Unfortunately, it’s also saddled with other holdovers from its 2020 predecessor - the same screen and chassis, the same two-port options, zero MagSafe, and it’s stuck with the Touch Bar.
It’s got the same eight-core M2 CPU with 10 GPU cores the new Air can be configured with, but much like the 2020 MacBook Pro model, it includes a fan for extended use under heavier loads.

The new 2022 MacBook Air features a full-size top function row with a larger Touch ID sensor. The base model Air is more costly than the 2020 version (which is sticking around at $999), and it’s going to start at $1,199 when it launches in July. Yet its increased the screen size to 13.6 inches, with a higher resolution of 2560 x 1664.
MAC PRO 2017 WORTH IT 720P
It’s also got a new 1080p webcam - finally, no more 720p - and smaller bezels. It’s going to be available in silver, gray, starlight, and a dark blue-ish “midnight,” starting in a basic configuration with an eight-core M2 CPU with eight GPU cores, 256GB of storage, and 8GB of RAM. Hands-on with the new, more colorful, M2-powered MacBook Air A redesign and an also-ranįirst off, the MacBook Air looks fresh thanks to a thinner, non-wedge shape and slightly more colorful options. So, how do they compare to the MacBook Pros that rocked our collective geeky worlds last year with the M1 Pro and M1 Max CPUs and the reintroduction of lots of ports? Meanwhile, the 13-inch MacBook Pro is basically the same machine as the 2020 model, complete with a Touch Bar, but both have the new M2 Apple processor. The new 2022 MacBook Air brings a fresh design with a larger 13.6-inch notched display as well as some nice quality-of-life upgrades like MagSafe charging and a new 1080p webcam.
But now, after Apple’s recent WWDC announcements, we have a newly redesigned MacBook Air and a spec-bumped 13-inch MacBook Pro, both releasing in July. The MacBook Air has returned to being an easy recommendation or de facto “no brainer” kind of purchase for most people, while the 13-inch MacBook Pro has become the final Touch Bar holdout once Apple revitalized its MacBook Pro line in 2021 with new 14- and 16-inch models.
MAC PRO 2017 WORTH IT MAC
Ever since the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro debuted with Apple’s own M1 silicon tech powering them in 2020, Mac laptops have experienced a small renaissance.
