I think you'll get a bit more bang for the buck if you go with M3. //@Anonymous: M3 vs M4, $300 difference. Worth or not?

At this time (8/21) the price difference is $200. With the same specs, the same MacBook Air 15 inch/M4 is listed at $1399 on Amazon.

If all you do is browser based apps, word processing, YouTube, Facebook and social media consumption. Then this is more than enough. If you make 4K videos and are a YouTuber, then it wont be. Can do it…but will take a while.

A lot of discounts on Apple products recently. M2 is their newest CPU and those laptops already on sale. Tough revenue quarter I suppose. Time of huge profits seems to be gone.
