I’ve been using a 2016 MacBook 12” and an 11” iPad Pro as my portable light InDesign/amends setup. Perfectly serviceable for just about everything, but I still prefer to set up new projects on my iMac. Its slightly absurd that the ‘portable screen’ has more power than the work machine but there you go.

Need to upgrade my computer for work as going freelance.
Mostly just google docs etc, but also some heavy InDesign and light Premiere Pro. Move around a fair bit for work (tv).
Very tempted by the MacBook Air M1 (even though I know it’s yet to support PP and INDD).
Thinking about a MacBook Air 13 M1 with a second screen setup of an iPad or iPad Air running sidecar? Coming from a 15” pro. I don’t see any difference between the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro apart from the fan?
Other option is a Mac mini setup with an iPad Air for ‘on the go’.
Anyone else using sidecar to get a bit more screen real estate? Or should I just buy a monitor? Advantage of sidecar is I can take the extra space with me wherever I go whereas a monitor is a bit trickier.
Should add I already own a 2014 13” pro which is starting to show its age.
