I professionally edit tens of thousands of very large RAW photos, edit 4K video all day long, write, web and very light dev work.

All that on a used M1 air. Still the fastest computer I’ve ever used.

The pro is so insanely powerful there really are only devs (and maybe only ai devs) who need it.

MBP has some other advantages too- better display, better speakers/mic, more ports, driving more external displays. But yeah the MBA with an M1 chip is incredibly powerful and an awesome computer.
