There is design and there is timeless design.
I bought it because I needed a fan and needed a macbook in a pinch that could handle my schoolwork and editing my clients work on the go but fit in my tight budget. I originally wanted to get an iPad with an Apple pencil so definitely think I made a better decision but yeah I couldn’t afford the 14” Pro and my last Air doesn’t work anymore because of overheating. So hopefully I spent $1700 CAD (taxes included) on a machine that lasts longer then my Air (5–6 ish years) and isn’t a total dud.
My defence is that I also have an upgraded 24” IMac with an M1 chip that performs pretty well so the need for me to spend more on a laptop also would make that computer more redundant. Though going from 4 USB‑C ports to 1–2 (depending if you are charging your device) has been an adjustment.
Considering my primary use is for school (which most people would pick an Air) but also need a fan for my editing that I got the best machine for the job within my budget.
There is so much OVER hype about the new 15-inch Macbook Air that one must think there is no other computer that compares. I disagree. People have likes and dislikes. I have had in my possession the Macbook 13, 15, and 16 I have owned the Air and the Pro and they are all different. So which Mac do I prefer and use. I use the shunned Macbook Pro M2 with the old-school touch bar. I love this computer and for me, it fits. I like the 13-inch size and I love the battery life I love the touchbar even though many people don’t. Just saying it’s all personal. The benchmarks for me are irrelevant. Email, Office, Whats app, Google Drive, my older 2012 handles my needs on this sort of usage. I take my pro m2 and it’s good for two days.
This literally happened to me. My company is dumb enough to buy these but with 16g of ram and 1TB of storage. They cost $1,900 when we could get everyone the M2 Air and save a boatload of money. Enterprise is definitely the dummies that keep the PC world floating.
So should I upgrade from my intel 2017 MacBook Pro?
I think that have to live longer, because I hate OLED screens in 14 and 16 MBP. As well as a notch
Our Enterprise got all us 16″ Pros.
It’s not the same case papa, I had the macbook pro 13″ 2017 model so I compared the two and the metallic casing is different… I bought the macbook pro 13″ with the touchbar m2 cpu and 24gb of ram, okta-core and am super duper happy with it. I run VMs, all the adobe library, office, play games… …and the battery lasts forever. Am very happy for the 2k I paid and the quality I get. If I want to game I wouldn’t game on this laptop but on my alienware m17 r5 laptop or gaming rig that runs a 4090 rtx with i9 6ghz 24cores. lol I got it all.. I love how elegant this laptop is for my work (airline pilot) it syncs well between my ipad pro, iphone pro etc.. I am absolutely loving it.
“enterprise“
truer words have never been spoken.
This is my favourite laptop
Marques, do u want to make a ram stress test? currently no YT videos on 64 vs 96gb ram in m2 MBP’s
At some point, Apple will just slap a sticker onto an old device and call it the new one, charging double for it. I miss the innovation days…this is just tweaks on paper.
First of I think all new Macbooks should come with NO notch it is something that is ruining design and distracting plus taking spaces on the screen. Second idea would be to propose for every new Macbook Pro a buying option for having a Touchbar or NO touchbar it should be a choice since a significant number of people love the touch bar but lot of people disliked it too.
me watching this video after buying this specific macbook at as my first mac: 😢😢😢😢
brilliant, absolutely brilliant
I wanna get the M2 Air so much more but the Pro has 120hz refresh rate!
Idk what to do! Are the M3 Air versions coming out soon?
Id buy the Mac Air tomorrow if it could run 120hz refresh rate.
Probably gonna wait for the M3 versions. Or just get the Macbook Pro with the M2 Pro chip.
Now getting the air 😅
I don’t think a six-year-old design matters at all. At the end of the day, it’s about what the individual consumer wants and needs.
So confused on why ppl complaining about space like if u got money to buy a MacBook you should have money to buy external storage 😭 or sum equivalent
