should i get a used air, a neo or just repair my m2?

heyo. so, this is a tricky one. my m2's screen popped and replacing it will be as costly as the laptop was.

because money is a struggle i've been wondering whether i should just buy a new air for about the same price (€900), go for a used m2/m3 because they're cheaper, or experiment the neo.

for context i'm a writer mostly, but also do design on affinity. i'm not ruling out video editing despite not having yet done it outside of my iphone (both 12 and 16, worked fine, nothing major).

so i was wondering whether someone in a similar experience has used the neo for similar purposes and found it worked for them. space wise i've been using the 256gb macbook air + the icloud subscription (which i already had anyway when i had a 64gb iphone before upgrading), i'm just wondering mostly about the processor and the RAM
