Hi!
I work as a Mobile App Developer for a company, I have about 3 years experience. I have never owned a Mac but I think it’s time for me to buy one in order to increase my skills and increase my freelance chances (since I need a Macbook to develop for iOS).
What are the main differences between the 13 and the 14 inch? I will mainly use an IDE and the iOS simulator.
Which one do you suggest? I have also heard great things about the Macbook Air, but the lack of fan kind of drives me out.
Also, I have been reading that getting an M1 is still the cheapest and best option instead of M2 and M3.
Thanks in advance!
I believe they’re discontinuing the 13” size.
Yeah, there’s actually quite a bit of difference. The 13-inch model is using the older chassis design, older keyboard design, and still uses the touchbar. You are much better getting the 14-inch unless you don’t mind the outdated design and you are saving a significant amount of money. The screen, keyboard, and speakers are still pretty great, but it’s not the same as the 14-inch.
