my biggest regret of 2023 is buying the MBA with M2 chip. it is so underpowered compared to the MBP - no right hand ports, lower memory, no support for 2 monitors - that it was not worth the few hundred dollars saved and lighter weight which was something i thought I valued.
so just a word of advice to fellow devs - go for the MBP. if you're on here you need it.
- darknavi 3y agoI have a 14in MBP M2 and it only has two USB C ports on the left-hand side. Apple's fractured line up is confusing at best.

- kjkjadksj 3y agoThe battery life is crazy on the m3s, supposedly better than m2 due to more e cores. I use mine all day and can get away with charging it overnight.
