So I can choose any two of the three -

  1. Upgrade to 15 inch (+240 USD)
  2. Upgrade to 512 GB SSD (+240 USD)
  3. Upgrade to 16 GB RAM (+240 USD)

I really like the bigger display of 15 inches as Im not used to smaller screens and the m1 air 13 inch i have just feels too small at times.

But for the performance, is it better to upgrade RAM and SSD of 13 inch rather than switch to 15 and upgrade just RAM or just SSD.

Also upgrading the ssd is cheaper in some cases by 100 usd due to offers but 16GB ram upgrade is always 240 usd which is a lot.

I will mainly use it as my daily machine for college work, coding(data science and ai/ml stuff), little bit of image and video editing, etc.

Any suggestions?

    I mean, you are not gonna see that much of a difference between your m1 air and a m2 in performance. If I were in your position I would either get the 15 inch m2 air or get an external display.

    This is as long as your current air works fine for your workflow.
