According to recent research by Max Tech channel, upgrading the SSD and RAM on the MacBook makes choosing between the 15-inch MacBook Air and 14-inch MacBook Pro a tough decision. Both laptops have 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD, but the 14-inch Pro currently costs only $50 more than the MacBook Air on Amazon.
The external differences between these two machines are quite noticeable, as evidenced by the display difference. The 15-inch MacBook Air has a larger screen, and the footprint of the computer is longer and taller than that of the 14-inch Pro. However, the trade-off is the thinness of the 15-inch laptop, which makes typing on the keyboard easier, as your wrists are above the edge. The trackpad on the 15-inch is also larger, but this doesn't seem to make a significant difference.
On the other hand, the 14-inch Pro has some key differences. It has an additional Thunderbolt port, an HDMI 2.1 port, and a fast SD card reader. In addition, the Pro can connect to three external displays, while the MacBook Air can only connect to one. Both laptops have fast-charging MagSafe ports and two Thunderbolt ports on the left side.
In conclusion, the choice between the two laptops depends on personal preference and intended usage. While the 14-inch Pro seems to have better port options and viewing capabilities, the 15-inch Air's thinness and lightness are incredible. It's also worth noting that both laptops have 1080p webcams and impressive speaker systems, though the 14-inch Pro's speaker system seems to produce a slightly better sound.
