The MBA 13 and MBP 14 have very similar working real estate on their displays. See their default scaled resolutions for better understanding.

The MBA 15 and MBP 16 have very similar working real estate on their displays. Again, see their default scaled resolutions for better understanding.

If someone is okay with a smaller working real estate on their display, they should consider a MBA 13 or MBP 14. If they want or need MORE working real estate, they shoud consider a MBA 15 or MBP 16.

It’s a pet-peeve of mine when people look at the price of the MBA 15 and recommend that someone get the MBP 14 instead. They are very different experiences and some people won’t be happy with the smaller working space

    You must shop based on top reviews and front page articles… A lot of us make recommendations so people avoid making your mistake. If you feel like you waste time educating yourself about the technology rather than why you should have the latest device, then you wouldn’t be making such statements. The Air has always been designed to have “less Bezel”= “more screen” to the common eye. 9/10 MacBook owners have or will have an external display. Whether its Apple Studio, an iPad, or a cheap aftermarket foldable monitor… This sounds like a very personal concern and not a community concern lol
