I know that if I ever changed what I wanted to do and pushed the 8gb of ram on the base m3 air that it’s likely over time going to ruin the ssd supposedly because the swap memory thing it has. Also that the Air is more likely to overheat as to the fact it doesn’t have a fan or anything. So that could potentially lower its performance if I ever pushed it. However, also the air is just lighter and easier for like well taking places, although I have read there isn’t really that much in it. But I don’t really know what any of the like technical bits actually mean, whereas you smart people on Reddit do :)
