It's pretty crazy that the main difference between the new Air and Pro is that the Pro comes with a fan.

- barnaclejive 6y agoSlightly larger case and fan could be a big difference depending on what you use it for. Air has a cheaper option for 7 core GPU. Also, toucbar on Pro - as if anyone actually _wants_ that.
- raihansaputra 6y agoMost likely it’s a binning thing. The top bins that can sustain longer boosts on higher temps would be binned for the MBP. The ones that can boost with a bit more cooling gets into a Mini. The lower binned ones would be on an MBA, and “faulty” chips with 1 GPU disabled would go in the cheaper 7GPU MBA. Higher yields, better economics.
