I was hoping for some typical student apps, like Word, Excel, Powerpoint, R, SPSS, Zoom and Teams. I'd love to see how the processor and battery hold up to hours long multitasking with these apps. But yet here again we get the photo and video editing tests all other KZreadrs already do. Only interesting if you belong to the 0,5% of students who actually study graphical arts.

I think the MacBook air m2 would be an obvious go-to if they hadn't screwed with a single nand chip in the base model. According to some reviews, while multitasking, that model sometimes underperforms the m1 base model, which is outrageous. Since I'll do some heavy coding tasks, it'll definitely have some impact.

I like that the M1 MacBook Air takes a USB-C cord so I can use the cable with other electronics. The "MacBook Air" title is missing from the monitor. The M2 is faster, but unless you are using demanding software, then the M2 isn't really worth it.

Possibly. If you utilize the cloud heavily and don’t save too many documents it should last for a bit but 512 GB will give you much more headroom. Not to mention the base storage is up to 50% slower because one 256GB NAND stick was used.

Would this laptop still be a good idea in 5-10 years time? Or would it be a better idea to invest in a MacBook Pro 14” should I want it to be a long term laptop?

@adrianbache5693

2 жыл бұрын

I’m in the same dilemma. I’m leaning more towards the m1 pro 14” baseline model. The reason being is because for my use, I would like to have at least 512 gb on the computer. And that comes standard with the m1 pro, whereas it costs extra on the air. Also, a thing that increases the lifespan of a computer is the ram. When time goes on, applications become more demanding, and more ram helps the computer keep up. So in my case If I were to buy the m2 air, I would need to spend extra on the storage and ram. On the 14 m1 pro you get 16 gb ram and 512 storage right of the bat. If you apply these two on the m2 air, it becomes quite expensive, and you wouldn’t need to spend that much more to just get the m1 pro. And that’s not talking about the way better performance of the m1 pro chip vs m2, m1 pro 14” has superior display, speakers and a bunch of other things. But if there’s something I overlooked on the m2 air, that makes it a better choice, please let me know because I am still a little unsure about what model to get
