This is a great laptop for casual users and those with light computing needs. Its a very high quality device that doesn't have major cons. Other than being expensive for a model with 16GB memory, which you will want if doing more intensive tasks like software development on this laptop. Its CPU is capable of that kind of work.

The M3 model is not significantly different to the M2 version, so you may want to save money by buying the older model. And, if you find the M2 version with 16GB memory for the same as the M3 with 8GB. You should definitely get the older model with more memory.
