Of course this comes out right when I'm considering changing my M1 Pro for a MacBook Air!

The interesting thing is that it is just an M5 chip. Not an M5 Pro or M5 Max.

Looks like only diff from the M4 is a bump in memory bandwidth? Decent incremental improvement mind.

Yup, waiting for now. In the meantime I may order a 15" Air with a view of returning, to see how I get on with that size.
