The MBA 13 and MBP 14 have very similar working real estate on their displays. See their default scaled resolutions for better understanding.
The MBA 15 and MBP 16 have very similar working real estate on their displays. Again, see their default scaled resolutions for better understanding.
If someone is okay with a smaller working real estate on their display, they should consider a MBA 13 or MBP 14. If they want or need MORE working real estate, they shoud consider a MBA 15 or MBP 16.
It’s a pet-peeve of mine when people look at the price of the MBA 15 and recommend that someone get the MBP 14 instead. They are very different experiences and some people won’t be happy with the smaller working space

I recommend the Macbook Pro 14.

How are you this emotionally invested in what MacBook someone chooses to purchase
But it’s better….
In general, I agree. The 14 is significantly smaller than the 15 at default resolution. There is much ,ore viewable resale estate on the 15. The best screen comparison is the Pro 16. The 14 is much closer in size and scale to the 13 Air.

Having purchased the MBA15, I think that I’d have been happier with the size smaller MBA. I’ve found myself needing to pan my head/neck more than I’d like, and hold the laptop closer that I’m accostomed to focussing. Power and speed -wise, the M2 chip is plenty fast, and the battery lasts forever. Also, the laptop never heats up like my old MacBook Pro did.
Good to know. Thx

Most of the times the MBP is closely priced to the MBA with similar specs and in that case MBP 14 is a MUCH better deal.
MiniLED display is just out of this world and nobody would want to go back to LCD after using it. The speakers are just too fantastic.
People who do any heavy task for prolonged periods will definitely need a cooling system like a proper heat sink and Fan
You speak like a man that never experienced the mbp 14 screen. Get out of here. This is not for you.
The screen itself is better, brighter and the MBA has no cooling, so
The 14 and 16 has a much better screen.
