They're not even a tiny bit close. The M1 Pro wipes the floor with the M2 Air, in every respect.
The M1 Pro CPU & GPU performance is MILES ahead, the 120Hz mini-LED display is in another universe, more ports, SSD is over twice as fast, etc etc.
You'd only go for the M2 Air for portability reasons in your config example.
Guess the M2 Air 16GB 8/10/16 512GB (£1749) vs 14‑inch MBP M1 Pro 16GB 8/14/16 512GB (£1899) is really about the screen, performance close? Have the choice between the two, focus on longevity. Will be ditching the iMac.
