It's hard to expect much from Apple's new M3-equipped MacBook Airs. The 13-inch M2 model, released in 2022, was the first major redesign for Apple's most popular notebook in over a decade.

Once you do, it might be able to replace your laptop, but only if you don’t care about key travel and the relative lack of app support.   Currently, tablets occupy an awkward middle ground between those two devices. In many cases, they’re great for browsing the web, watching videos and…
