I just got my M2 Macbook air and it's such a huge upgrade coming from the Macbook air 2017. Everything feels better - from the battery, to the trackpad and magsafe (chord). I know everyone tends to look at these devices from their direct predecessor the year before but for people like me who don't upgrade that often, it's such a great and necessary upgrade. Also been loving your content Ella, legit you are the reason why I upgraded to this amazing baby in the first place haha

Ended up grabbing one of these a few days ago after watching your initial review and I absolutely love it. I came from a 2018 intel MacBook Air and my gosh what a difference, I'm not lagging all over the place, battery seems much stronger, and my space bar doesn't double skip finally lol. For real though if your just planning on using this laptop strictly for school like me it does everything you'll ever need and more. She's right unless your like a full blown graphic designer, coder, etc. there's really no need to upgrade the storage. This M2 is a power house.

I got the Macbook Air M2 when it came out because I needed a small laptop for my music practice areas and wanted to checkout the M-series chips. Over the decades I alway had Macbook Pros so getting an entry level laptop was going to be a first. I got it when it first came out so have had it a long time and have to say I've been amazed how much I've ended up using it. My only issue is being older the 13" screen can get to be small, so I think about getting a larger screen Macbook. I have dropped my MBA M2 twice and no problems, the camera isn't great but for making piano video I use the iPhone Continuity Camera feature and get excellent video and no wires. It's size is very handy and battery life is great as you pointed out. It's on the high side for an entry level laptop, but I think it's worth it, with a M2 chip it will remain an excellent performer for a long time.

The MacBook Air line has never failed to impress me! My first one was a 2013 11-inch MBA and I've manage to squeeze any GPU intensive task you can think of. Photoshop, InDesign and the occasional video editing. Then I upgraded to the 2018 MBA and the screen was just so stunning considering that it was the first time ever Apple put their Retina Display technology for the MacBook Air line! And very recently, I've gotten my hands on the M2 MBA. It's love at first sight all over again (notch included!)

ok so I have this laptop too, in midnight. I am watching this video from mine. The sound quality of the speakers is quite good I believe. I came from a 2022 hp envy x360 and the speaker on that was terrible. I only realised how bad it was when I upgraded to my Mac. I also do not believe that there is a need for upgrading this beast. I have used it for 3 months now and it is great. I use it for my notes, web-browsing, and bingeing Netflix. I also do some video projects for school and sometimes for fun. It honestly is super good. I will not replace it until it dies on me. My only ick is that the 15" model was just released, but it is not necessarily a regret as I appreciate this form factor for school. I bring this laptop to school everyday, and I love it.

Cool video, Ella, I bought one after your initial review. Had mine for about three months and it is the best travel laptop I have had, ultra light and thin and easy to carry around. Have had zero issues until I travelled from Europe to Southeast Asia, but only when playing games on Steam in clamshell mode. It does get very hot and throttles a bit when the room temperature is 32 degrees and higher and the aircon is not on, never had this issue in Europe in the winter or when I was recently in South Korea and it was still below zero outside. No problems when just using for word processing or watching KZfaq videos even in hot weather though. I guess I need a proper gaming laptop or PC with big fans! Look forward to your next videos.

I just think the difference between 'all' M series laptops is very negligible for the 'average' user. Unless you are rendering some extremely lengthy 3D scene (in which case you'd probably use a cloud based renderer)... I don't think most people would experience radical benefits going from an M1 to an M2 or a Pro to a Pro Max.

@AB-kq9xm Жыл бұрын
Disagree. Example a designer who's using , say photoshop, figma, and say some apple apps and a lot of browser windows - this person could easily benefit from a mbp over the base air. Extra ports, better screen, better multitaksing. Many such examples.

@@AB-kq9xm Its why I say 'average' user. If you are a professional making a living of course you would benefit from every little productivity gain. But if you are an everyday user (or a student) it's not the end of the world if you can only have a couple of apps open at once, or if your render takes an extra 30-40 minutes. 'Most' people don't do enough power-user stuff to 'need' anything beyond an M1 Air.

The only thing I disagree with is the comparison to the MBP mini-led display. You can 100% notice a difference with just daily use if they're side by side. If you look at just the lock screen of both of them together, you will be able to see how much more sharper, clearer, and vivid the MBP display is in comparison. With that said, day-to-day it's not really noticeable, but if you put the two machines side by side, you will 100% be able to tell the difference.

Now the 15" has been announced, i'd expect most these comments to apply to that too. Mostly use my current laptop for media consumption, text documents, presentations, meetings, very light gaming, some 3D cad etc. Even on a 2018 Ryzen 5 i dont run into many issues (other then horrendous battery) unless i got multiple apps running which draw CPU and GPU. Gaining 2x the CPU and 2.5x the GPU cores should remove all issues im having which are still minimal and the 10 hour media and 4-5 hour working battery life will be amazing. Lucky to get 1 hour under medium to high load atm

I have an iPad Pro 11" M2 with Magic Keyboard, and I love it, and I really don't like not having a touch screen. NOW, if they ever made a MacBook with touchscreen, it would be awesome. I'll keep playing around with it, see how it goes.

I can be on a zoom call all day and code and have multiple browsers open at the same time, and this thing doesn't heat up or make a sound. And I can do it all on the battery. Pretty impressive. I would say that this is the perfect laptop - unless you want to create/edit videos or play video games. It is not designed to do those things. If you want to do those things, get the Pro and/or a gaming laptop. For everything else, this is the best laptop I've ever used.

I got mine last Friday. I ordered it in April, but all of a sudden, I decided to cancel and wait for M3. it was going to cost me 2209€. But Apple came out with the new 15" recently, so M3 will surely be something for 2024, and I couldn't wait another year. I ended up getting the exact same computer for 500€ less than if I had bought it in April: Apple lowered the price 200€ since the 15" came out, and I discovered the refurbished section on Apples website. I got a refurbished one, with 3y warranty and apple care. I think I did an awesome deal. I have the latest Mac model, 500€ cheaper than when it came out. I think that 1709€ for 1TB + 16GB Air is a more acceptable price. I would be pissed right now, if I had spent the extra 500€ two months ago. and it's indeed a great little machine. I thought that the speakers would suck big time, but they are better than my previous 2017 MBPro. i am loving it 🤩

Good review. If you cannot use it for two monitors, can it at least show different screen view from the laptop and your desktop monitor? I'm asking because I may get the new m2 15 inch air.

thanks for the honesty on this mini-LED stuff, it is overhyped, and I cannot see the difference on these. I use the 16" one, and my wife usese the Intel 2019 15", and there really is no difference. the whole blacks are deeper, perhaps works for people who consume videos and content on these devices, I watch videos with the laptop mounted on side, and do my work on external monitors

i been using M2 air for about a year, only time where i had performance issues is when playing games, running stable diffusion, and running ML models, oh and skip the Sonoma 14.0 and upgrade straight to 14.1 beta.. Sonoma 14.0 is plagued with memory leak issues

I've been using the base model of this for several months. It's amazing, but I wouldn't recommend for pro designers, developers, and people with more demanding workflows. I have throttled mine a couple of times from web design/front-end dev type work. I can get around that in the near future by managing how many apps/windows I have open, but who knows for how long?

In a perfect world the m4 mba will get 120hz screen, 18gb ram, and 512gb storage on the base model for no price increase. For now though I got the base M2 air and it's a delight to use. On the side I have a dual boot linux and windows custom desktop. Feels very nice to not be restricted to 1 or 2 os. If I feel like I'm missing something in one os I just use another one for a while

Did you say in the previous m2 macbook air video that you use type c cable to charge instead of magsafe. Is this the same laptop that you charge with type c and the battery life ia still ok?

So would the base model M2 air be good enough for someone like me who does the occasional KZfaq video filmed in 4k from my iPhone 12Pro. I mainly edit short form videos for TikTok as well.

The only thing that's bothersome about the notch is that they easily could've fit the camera within the bezel. I'd get it if it had some actual function but seems like it's just there to be there.
