Our Verdict

MacBook Air 15 (M3) vs Envy x360 14 (2024)

Apple MacBook Air 15 M3 256GB/16GB wins on CPU/GPU performance: M3’s 10-core GPU (15W TDP) outperforms Intel’s 4-core iGPU in sustained workloads, and its fanless design ensures silent operation under load. Choose the MacBook if you edit 4K video with Final Cut Pro—16GB LPDDR5 and macOS optimization deliver smoother rendering than Windows on similar hardware. Pick the HP Envy x360 if you need a 2-in-1 touchscreen for note-taking or presentations—its 360° hinge, 512GB SSD, and HDMI port suit students or hybrid workers needing display flexibility. In UAE at AED 4499 vs AED 3299, the HP wins on value because it offers double the storage for AED 1200 less; in India at ₹109900 vs ₹79990, the HP wins on value because it delivers 256GB more storage at ₹30K lower.
