Mac book pro and mac book air are two laptop products launched by Apple. The advantages and disadvantages of the two have their own advantages and disadvantages: pro pursues excellent performance, and air pursues fashion and convenience.

Air is light and convenient, which is incomparable to similar notebook computers. The air is so small that it can even be packed in an envelope. The weight is only1.08kg.. Wedge design, the thickest part is only1.7cm. It cleverly omits the bloated and impractical parts of ordinary notebook computers, such as DVD drive, Ethernet port and other data interfaces, which greatly reduces the weight. The streamlined architecture has not greatly reduced the function. It is the best choice for fashionable office workers.

Excellent performance, and the perfect match of mac OSX, is beyond the reach of other products. The MacBook Pro with Retina display not only has an incredibly thin design, but also is extremely powerful. In order to minimize energy consumption, the design of air series is not as good as that of pro series in CPU and storage. Pro has a certain space to upgrade the hardware configuration, which can make your notebook "never out of date". Pro has a large screen and high resolution, and is an essential weapon for designers, program developers and game artists.

I recommend you to choose mac book pro. Doing video design requires high performance. The following is a comparison of the key configurations of pro and air for your reference:
