This one is from 2020 with the M1. The new model in the Apple for Education store is $1199 and comes with a $150 Apple GC. The new model has the new M2 processor inside. Good, or bad, if you consider the Apple GC something you'd otherwise use (I do) the prices are close. I don't honestly know how different the machines perform, but if you are considering this one, you may want to consider that one too.

Faster processor performance on the M2 but is marginal. You pay taxes on the $200 extra where sales taxes apply. Slower SSD on the new model. Nothing else has really changed.

Outside of running a long 3D render, the air and pro are basically the same performance wise.

He is talking about new M2 pro 13 which is with edu discount 1199 at apple. With 150 GC, you may consider it as 1049 which is only 50 more than older 2020 M1 pro model

Obviously with the GC, your probably already invested in Apple. Might've well call it cash.

M2 is NOT worth it, the slower ssd impacts the performance a lot. At least the Air has a new design, MBP13M2 shouldn't even exist

Oh yeah, it overheats with a "fan". So, pointless fan, slow ssd, dumbass touchbar, what else am I missing?

Is slower SSD on the pro 256gb? I thought it was just on Air 256 (but not 512)?

I guess I'm going to keep my old pro m1 ($950 open-box deal). Was going to upgrade to the lighter air m2.

I believe iFixIt opened one of these up and notice that it looks almost identical to the M2 MacBook pro. Meaning they literally slapped on a m2 processor and slower SSD drive in and called it brand new MacBook pro....at least for the 13inch pros

Sweet spot is the higher end 8/512 w/ 10-core gpu, $1399 w/ $150 gift card

Still a lot of $ for the Air lol better off with M1 Air $1249 16/512
