MacBook Air 13 (M3) vs Galaxy Book2 Pro 15.6"

Apple MacBook Air 13 M3 with its 10-core GPU and 8-core M3 CPU outperforms the 2018 MacBook Pro’s 6-core i7-8850H and Radeon Pro 560X in both CPU and GPU tasks, while running fanless due to 10.5W sustained power draw. The Air is best for students, writers, and remote workers needing 18+ hours of battery life, 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, and macOS 14 with modern security updates. The 2018 Pro suits professionals needing 32GB DDR4 RAM and 1TB SSD for heavy multitasking in legacy Adobe apps or virtual machines, despite its 5.5-hour battery and thermal throttling under load. In UAE at AED 3499 vs AED 3399, the Air is better because it delivers superior performance and 12+ hours longer battery life. In India at ₹84900 vs ₹87900, the Air wins on value because it offers newer architecture, 6E Wi-Fi, and 16GB unified memory for ₹3000 less.
