Hi, I'm going into college this fall and just deciding between 2 Macbooks rn. Im torn between the certified refurbished 13inch m3 macbook air with 1tb ssd and 16ram for around $1400 usd and the certified refurbished m3 (14 inch) pro macbook pro with 11 core cpu 14 core gpu with 18gb ram and 512 ssd. I dont do anything powerful on my macbook it would bascially be used by taking notes, youtube, excel, alot of powerpoints. I would also like to watch movies but idk if the hdr screen makes much of a difference. Is the pro worth the extra $300 alone for the better screen. For my case it would be the better screen of the pro vs the portability of the air. (Apple refurbished)
