Yeah no noise but unresponsive :/
 
2018 Intel MBP 16 starting to creak after 6 years of daily hard use. Still fundamentally working, but lots of fan activity despite cleaning, and a clear sign of battery degradation. I make extensive use of VMs running Windows workloads, but I'm now satisfied that Win11 on Arm on AS via either vmWare or Parallels is viable, having run a mockup test on an M2 Mac mini that I got hold of second-hand. So, Apple, bring the M4 MBP 16. Bring it soon, please. Like, this month. Tomorrow would be better.
I'm in a similar situation with the 2018 MBP 16. I'm deciding whether to go to M4 or grab one of the M3 models from Apple's refurbished store. TBD.
 
It all depends on your needs. For me I can keep my M1 Pro until it breaks down or can’t install latest macOs. An M4 would be almost twice faster than M1 but I hardly ever gonna notice. I like the black colour though.
If MB Air had same display as in Pros, I would buy one today.
I am with you on the MB Air. Love the screen on the Pros, but don't need the Pros power.
