Here are all the differences between the M1 Air and M1 Pro, from [1]:
Brighter screen (500 nits vs. 400)
Bigger battery (58 watt-hours vs. 50)
Fan (increasing thermal headroom)
Better speakers and microphones
Touch Bar
0.2 pounds of weight (3.0 pounds vs. 2.8 — not much)
The SoC is the same (although the entry-level Air gets 7-core GPUs, that’s probably chip binning). The screen is the same (Retina, P3 color gamut), both have 2 USB-C ports, both have a fingerprint reader.
