Macbook air vs mac mini m4

I have MacBook air m1 which I bought 2 years. Surprisingly the battery has drained a lot ( 65% battery health) and it needs replacement which will cost 19k. I'm thinking of upgrading now. 2 option i have seeing the budget constraints.

  1. Get the battery replaced and buy a mac mini m4 512 gb which will cost 80k + 19k =99 K
  2. sell the m1 and buy MacBook air m3 with 512gb which will eventually cost around 1.10 L

First option I'm considering keeping m1 is because i need some portability as well. Which is the best deal to go for??

go for 256gb mac mini, and add an external 1TB SSD to it for 8-10k.

#1, with variation proposed by @BearGang . If you are in NCR, check NP for cheaper battery replacement options.
