Why not use DR on that MB Air? My wife's M2 has 16 GB RAM and works pretty well with BRAW in an UHD timeline. With a bit more grading, she switches to HD, but rendering still works without a hitch in UHD.
Do you desperately need the portability? For that amount of money you can get a desktop PC that leaves all three in the dust.
That said, M2 or M3 doesn't make much of a difference for video. But if you ever plan to run DR on that laptop, get at least 1.5, even better 2 GB per GPU core. Better take the older processor and up the RAM, or your machine may need a new Mobo too early.
Finally, refurb machines from Apple are very good, we have quite often gone refurb. All of the ones we bought were looking shiny and new.
