The MacBook Air in 15.3" is an inexpensive alternative to the MacBook Pro 16". The "economy model" does have some limitations, such as the lack of a card reader and the 120 Hz display. Nevertheless, it is an excellent device if you need a Mac. The biggest advantage is certainly that it has no fan and is significantly lighter.

    ... Charging the battery takes a long time because Apple includes a dual-port power supply with a total output of only 35 watts as standard. We recommend ordering the new 70-watt power supply unit instead, which Apple provides at no extra charge. Although it only has one output, it charges much faster...

    Lots of speed, always silent, very durable and with a top display - only bigger this time: the MacBook Air 15 inch is a great laptop. Great: the 15-inch model hardly adds any weight. And if you need extra power, go for the Mac Studio. A real power dwarf, very quiet and really mini...
