need some opinion from pros here, I am an project planner, so I cannot decide between this

macbook air M1 with 16GB 256gb ssd

or

macbook air M2 with 8GB 256gb ssd
my usage is alot on portability and i regularly needing to open illustrator to review the project work. Sometimes the PDF with lots of layer to open the architecture floor plans. Do we still choose the macbooks with high ram now or actually 8GB is sufficient? Also sometimes need to open adobe premier to review the videos created for the building promotional video.

If me I still go for M2, the better display, better camera, MacSafe charging n newer built n sound system make up for all the Hoo-ha of 256GB SSD limitation. Plus it’s very unlikely SSD swap will occur. N you probably get longer MacOS update compare to M1 model.

Wait for the new MacBook guys, rumor has it M3 chip and a new MacBook Air is coming and launching on WWDC this year . Hopefully thermals and SSD speeds are resolved with this new iteration of MacBook Air

Hearsay the 15" M3 MBA is coming
estimate damage RM8-9k

Usually WWDC will not release new model, they focus on operating system
But still the macs need some upgrade, especially the iMac
Im eyeing on iMac or larger screen MBA

I think it will probably fall around the RM6-8k range as RM8-9k range is MacBook Pro M2 range already.
