The Air (M1) netted a 114.3% sRGB rating from our colorimeter, which slightly beats the 110.6% rating we got from both the M1 13-inch Pro, while the 16-inch Intel Pro is close at 114%. On color output, though, they're more similar. Apple also rates the Pro as having a 100-nit brighter screen than the Air.īased on our lab test results, the MacBook Air (M1) maxes out at 365.8 nits of brightness, while the M1 MacBook Pro (13-inch: 434.8 nits) and the Intel-based 16-inch (429 nits) got even brighter. The only notable thing that's changed in the new Apple M1-based MacBooks is that they have support for the Wide color (P3) spectrum, which was once limited to the 16-inch MacBook Pro. The below ratings, though, come from the Intel (and not M1-based) MacBook Air and Pro. The Retina displays in the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro are both sharp and colorful, and while it's close, there's a reason to go Pro: brightness. We've got another really close race here. Winner: 16-inch MacBook Pro (Intel) MacBook Air vs MacBook Pro: Display Word has it that Apple's putting HDMI back in the MacBook Pro. If you want an HDMI port built into your next MacBook, then we've got good news for people with patience. The MacBook Air and the entry-level MacBook Pro 13-inch which keep their ports on the left, which can be annoying to work around and creating a lot of cable management work. The 16-inch MacBook Pro has four USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports standard - and they're on both sides of the laptop. The M1-powered 13-inch MacBook Pro also has only two USB-C ports (though the Intel models still sold by Apple have four), though they start at $1,799, $500 more than their more-modern M1 versions.

If you want plenty of ports, the MacBook Air is not the best choice.

Winner: It's a draw MacBook Air vs MacBook Pro: Ports Naturally, it's also a little heftier, at 4.3 pounds vs the 2.8-pound MacBook Air and the 3.0-pound 13-inch MacBook Pro. Of course the 16-inch Pro is a larger machine, but it's got the same 0.6-inch thickness as its 13-inch counterparts. When you look at their measurements, these laptops are again more alike than different. While the MacBook Air's tear-drop (it's more like a wedge than a rectangle) design is iconic, my favorite distinct feature about the Air is its gold color option, which just looks so much more attractive than the light and dark silver options.
