The Air M1 is spot on, it is the exact machine I am also using and traveling with. Every person around me is questioning why I (lead developer) is working on an Air instead of a Pro. But it is more than fast enough and so light that I would never pick the pro.
And the really great part is it's only $750 at Costco. 8 gig 256gb version. Handles video very well.
It's basically the same thing. M1 silicon has been a game changer for me. Low heat, great battery life, just need to consciously avoid Rosetta x86 emulation as that tanks all benefits.
