M3 MacBook Air has an SSD upgrade that people don’t even realize
Apple launched its new M3 MacBook Air models last week, and the refreshed 13-inch and 15-inch laptops are now available to purchase. In addition to the M3 chips, we've already shown you five other M3 MacBook Air upgrades that should help you decide which MacBook Air to get.
I won't mince words: the M3 isn't a huge upgrade. You could very well buy a cheaper M2 MacBook Air right now and get almost the same performance. Or, if you can find it in stock, the also-discounted M1 MacBook Air is dirt cheap.
If you want one of the M3 MacBook Airs, you should be aware of an upgrade that Apple didn't really mention. If it did, it would have to acknowledge a "flaw" of the 256GB M2 MacBook Air. The machines have slower SSD speeds than the same-gen Air models that rock 512GB of storage or more. I said in the past this isn't a real problem, hence the quotes above. But Apple has fixed it nonetheless.
