Is the m3 not that big of an upgrade from the m2? - eviltoast

I got a m2 macbook pro 16gb 512gb that is still within the return period(costco) and they just price matched it for 1599. The m3 pro is 1849 at costco and while not much more, I don’t see the real big difference for 300 bucks…if I get to a point that this one is outdated, have a feeling the m3 will be as well.

​

Also space gray is pretty nice…idk how I feel about space black lol.

    The biggest benefit of the M3 models is battery life.

    My M3 max 30 core lasts a few hours longer than my dad’s M2 Max 30 core.

    Personally, if you don’t need to upgrade, take that money and get AppleCare+. This is my opinion/recommendation. I just dropped my charging adapter in the water by accident and was sent a new one for free.
