However, the iPhone maker's laptops' performances still depend on how you will use them. Because of this, many consumers find it hard to choose the right model that would best suit their needs.

Although Apple only offers three basic MacBook models, choosing one of them could still be tricky. This is a serious matter for some individuals since MacBook Air, Pro 13, and Pro 16 are not that cheap.

To help you further, MSN's latest report and The Wired's blog post provided all the details you need to know about the three basic MacBook brands.

When it comes to battery, this laptop could last more than a full day of work. Some consumers even confirmed that their MacBook Air models still have 22% battery life even after using it non-stop from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., which is more than ten hours of usage.

MacBook Pro 13

If you have more budget, it is advisable to choose Apple's MacBook Pro 13 since it is more advanced compared to MacBook Air. However, you are slightly at a disadvantage when it comes to weight since Pro 13 is heavier, around 3 pounds.

On the other hand, Air only weighs 2.8 pounds. But, you have lots of advantages regarding performance since MacBook Pro 13 is now integrated with Apple's in-house M1 chipset.

Aside from this, Pro 13 has a brighter 13.3-inch Retina display, as well as 20-hour battery life.

MacBook Pro 16

The high-end MacBook Pro 16 is the most advanced among the three models based on the laptop's name. It has a better Retina screen size than Pro 13 and Air, is larger, and has more power.

Since it is bigger than the first two brands, users should already expect that it is heavier, with 4.3 pounds. When it comes to graphics, MacBook Pro 16 works way smoother when you edit videos and photos and play online games with HD visual effects.
