MBP VS MBA

[fmalvar]

Hey there!

I'm a graphic designer, I do all my work on my iMac. But I want to buy an MBP/MBA where I can do "soft work" (Illustrator/Photoshop basic stuff),

I'm confused if I should buy the new MBP 13 entry line or the MBA with i5. MBP, where I live, is 1 529,00 € and the MBA i5 is 1 279,00 €

Thank you for your time!

Both would work, but if you can afford it I’d go for the Pro since it has a wider color gamut and is better for photo editing.

A wider gamut is necessarily a good thing for photo editing, depending on where they end up.

Yes you're right, that's an important thing that I forget

Do NOT get the air. I do similar work to you and the Air is for basic basic basic stuff, it throttles like crazy.

Thank you Alexander! I will definitely go with the pro you have the MBA 2020?

for your use case, skip the air, just skip it.

Go Pro, the better screen and thermals are worth the extra money.
