(HELP 😥) Macbook Air M4 vs Microsoft Surface pro 11
For starters, I am a graphic designer
I already have a powerful setup (R7 9700x + RTX 5070ti + 64GB DDR5 + 2TB Gen 4 + 512GB Gen 3)
I have Asus UX325ea Laptop 16/512 oled screen which I use it for presentations, or working on my gaming pc using parsec in distance
I want to upgrade the laptop, what I want is something that is portable, long lasting and has a good battery and also smooth performance
I am between adding a MacOS system to my collection and have both computer OS by buying Macbook Air M4 16/256 with long lasting battery a good performance (I am not a fan of apple products except macbooks, I don't like the battery health capacity)
Or going for Surface Pro 11 16/512 IPS SD x plus tablet which has a touch screen, a stylus for sketching, good portability and also good for consuming content with upgradable storage.
Before talking about eco system, I own an S26 Ultra.
Prices for used units are approximately the same if not the macbook a little more expensive.
If you were me what would you pick?
