Here[1] is an article from The Verge that goes into the full differences with confirmation from Apple. For those too lazy to click through, yes the fan is the biggest difference. Beyond that the screen in the Air is slightly darker, the base model has worse chips due to binning, the battery is smaller, and there is obviously the Touchbar.

IIRC, the Pro’s display also has a higher P3 gamut vs sRGB on the Air’s.

With this update, the Air's display gets the P3 gamut.

I was astonished to see that their weights are now within 0.2kg of each other. I usually get the air because it’s light.
