[QUOTE="JeffL, post: 1864880, member: 341346"] I want to buy a new 2020 13" MacBook. Not sure if I should go for the Air or the Pro. The Air would be capable of delivering what I would use it for, which is internet, email, messaging, documents, FaceTime, but I have read some reviews where overheating has caused the fan to be overworked and become noisy. The Air would be the 1.1GHz dual-core Intel Core i3. The Pro would be the 1.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i5. Whichever one I buy it would have 8GB Memory and 256GB Storage. The Air and the Pro are both the same size but the Pro is slightly heavier (not enough to bother me). The Pro is £300 more expensive. I was set on the Air, but now, because of the potential overheating I'm leaning towards the Pro. I don't mind paying the extra £300 if it's going to give me peace of mind regarding not having it overheat. So, has anyone on here got the 2020 Air or Pro? Anyone had any overheating problems with the Air? If you have the Pro, what do you think about the Touch Bar? Thanks [/QUOTE]
