MacBook Air
Great Computer. Was debating between the Air and Pro. Decided on Air...I have had a pro for 10 years and was unhappy about the weight. Now with everything being on Google (docs, slides, etc.) the air will have plenty of memory and speed for all of my needs.

Perfect student and on the go laptop
The MacBook Air M3 15-inch with 512GB SSD and 24GB RAM in Space Black is the perfect choice for students and travelers, offering a blend of performance, portability, and style. Its sleek design and lightweight build make it easy to carry around campus or during travel, while the powerful M3 chip can handle multitasking and efficient handling of demanding applications. The 15 inch is perfect for studying and streaming thanks to the bigger screen size, though it’s not the mini LED from the MacBook Pro, for normal people this is all you’ll need in a screen. However, the laptop does have some drawbacks, such as a limited number of ports, which might require additional adapters for connectivity, and its performance, while impressive, doesn’t quite match up to the MacBook Pro’s capabilities for heavy-duty tasks like video rendering, mainly because this laptop has no fans. But that’s the whole reason I feel like this laptop is the perfect one for students and travelers, you have no worries of debris, clogging the fans, or having to worry about cleaning out the fans in a few years. It’s a laptop that you can use on your bed, on a dusty table, or literally anywhere else. Despite these minor limitations, the MacBook Air M3 excels in battery life, lasting over 15 hours on a single charge, making it through long days without a second charge. The combination of its robust performance, exceptional battery life, and elegant design makes it an excellent investment for students and digital nomads seeking a reliable and stylish laptop that can handle everyday tasks with ease.

Amazing laptop with minor flaws.
Amazing, everything i ever wanted within a thin framed laptop. Weight, speed and design met expectations. Only 2 small downsides is the audio 3.5mm port, maybe that could've been used for something else. Also the 60hz internal display could be improved, should be at least 90-120hz.
