[The M1 MacBook Air is still the best machine for most people – LJPUK](https://ljpuk.net/2021/11/06/the-m1-macbook-air-is-still-the-best-machine-for-most-people/?ref=birchtree.me)

> An Air is around £929 currently and the Pro starts at £1,899\. You really need to be able to justify that extra £1000\. Don’t write off the Air just because it’s not the best, it’s an amazing machine still with bags of performance.

I definitely agree with Lee here, the MacBook Air remains the best Mac Apple makes for most people.

That said, the dated design does make it feel a bit behind the new Pros now, so I am really looking forward to the next revision of the Air’s hardware next year.
