what is your workflow like? and what do you do on your laptop?
Personally for me I would spend the extra on the pro just cuz the price difference is not a lot.
I would go with the Pro, $150 more for much more computer

What will you be using it for?
I have a 14” M1 Pro that I use for email, the web, and very rarely a little bit of photoshop/lightroom. It’s overall IMO.
Hindsight being 20/20 I think I would have been better off with an Air
I picked the Air after looking at them side by side. I couldn’t tell too much difference in screen quality and the extra inch is very noticeable and usable.
Most of my work is email, PowerPoint, Teams meetings, web apps, and spreadsheets. For me, extra screen real estate is more important than darker blacks.
I also liked the feel of the keyboard (a bit shorter, easier stroke to my feel) when typing. And I travel a good deal for work and it is thinner.
If you need more power for your work stream, I can see the Pro making sense. I thought about it.
But the Air was a better fit for me. I ordered last week.
