MacBook for work in 2025

[Oli Vinter]

Hi.
I am now actively starting to study Wordpress developing. And I want to buy a new MacBook for work.
I am studying the description of MacBooks on the official Apple website https://www.apple.com/mac/ .
I need advice relevant for 2025: will the Air version be enough for me or should I only choose Pro?
And the second question: has anyone worked on screens with a small diagonal of 13? Do your eyes hurt? Or should I only focus on a screen with a diagonal of 15, 16?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

The M4 MacBook Air with 32GB of RAM will be a good machine for you. The 15" besides having a slightly larger screen which gives you more real estate for moving windows around the screen, it has better heat disapation for the M4 chip.

I have a good friend that just went from an M2 MacBook Pro to the new M4 Air and the performance increase was noticeable for a Mac at 1/2 the cost.
