MacBook Air on M3 allows you to connect two monitors simultaneously, unlike the model on M1. At the same time, if you type a lot, your wrists won’t hurt with the MacBook Air in M1. The webcam of the laptop with M3 has also been updated: it began to provide a much better image.
In terms of autonomy, a laptop on M3 “lives” about 4 hours longer compared to a MacBook Air on M1. It charges up to 50% in 30 minutes, while the older model charges in an hour.
In terms of read and write speeds, laptop SSDs are very close to each other. In terms of single-core performance, the M3 laptop is noticeably better. The same thing is observed in multi-core performance. You can see these and other results below.

If you’re doing photo editing or 4K video editing in Lightroom, you won’t notice much of a difference between the 16GB MacBook Air in the M1 and the 8GB MacBook Air in the M3. For most people, the power of the M1 laptop will be enough for now.
