Upgrading

Hello, I have a MacBook Pro 2017 and I do photoshop on Luminair AI/Neo for fun. But the response time to each edit is so slow, making it practically unusable. I am thinking about upgrading. I wasn’t sure if the M1 MacBook Air (I’m willing to wait for the M2 MacBook Air) would be sufficient or if I needed the M1 pro MacBook Pro.


thank you

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
