    I prefer the long term reviews over the release ones. I feel like every day 1 review is just a spec comparison with previous generations and does not tell much on what those improvements/changes translate to in usage.
    The fact that you've used the device for a while also adds a lot of credibility to your recommendation. This time around you actually changed your initial recommendation because of the 15" version. Adds a lot of weight

    The base M2 Air (13 or 15 inch) is a great computer and would meet the needs of 90-95% of users out there. I've had my 13" since launch day and it's been a beast from day one.

      @@osmanabdulkadir8153 I’m not sure if I’ve ever filled up the RAM like you’re talking about. The most intense apps I use on a weekly basis are Photoshop and audio editing. It’s not uncommon for me to have 6-7 apps open at once. The Air has never slowed down on me once.

    I bought this beast and boost it up to 16GB RAM & 512GB SSD. I use it as my daily driver for usual task (office365 things, zoom, entertainment). Battery life is crazy.. charging just once in a week. Never charge to 100% anyway but still capable of handle my job for up to 3 days without plugging in.
    Very pleasant…
    No regrets at all.

      @@familymovie5799 I can't give you a scientific answer. No degrees measured. But mine, 16, 512 M2 has none of those issues. It gets a bit warmer than my skin during work but never ever "hot". Performance is amazing. I also have a Surface Laptop Studio, and honestly only got the M2 for a few specific cases, but it has turned into a favorite. The only real difference has been how it remains cool and the battery life is superior. SLS only issue is the bad battery life. Performance is pretty much the same (SLS obviously better for graphics tasks) - I hope this at least helps

    I love mine. I bought one over the summer to finish my last year of university and, especially to my $1k+ Dell laptop that died after only 2 years, is an absolute BEAST! I feel stupid for not buying a Mac to begin with. I literally charge it once a week. I keep it on low power mode all the time and I have been using for 2 hours and the battery went only 2%. I upped the RAM to 16gb and left the SSD storage at 256gb because I hardly download apps and files but I recognize that other people would need to upgrade. I can always buy an external drive. The midnight color is gorgeous!! I put a case on the lid of it because it really does attract fingerprints horribly... and also to protect it. I'm a computer science major and this laptop excels at running all of the programs I use. I can't think of a better laptop for anybody. So quick, so light, and so perfect!!

    The "M" series chips are a great fit for an ultra-portable laptop that's basically a tablet in laptop form factor. You can just close it on a moment's notice and throw it in your bag, then hours later you can get right back where you left off with no battery drain and no loading delay. It can handle most medium workloads for an entire workign day and can do continous video playback for any non-stop commercial flight in the world on a single charge. For higher power laptops there's many cases where the cons outweigh the pros in regards to the M2 chip's incompatibility with some software and external GPUs, but for a simple machine for simple tasks, nothing else comes close.

    I've been using my M2 Air for a year as well, and I absolutely love this thing! I decided since I could get a very hefty student discount from Apple to upgrade to 16gb of ram and 512 gb of storage. The performance is surprisingly good, with my music production and occasional video recording running super well with no issues or overheating of any kind! I personally would say that if you tend to use your laptop a bunch for school or work, I think it is worth getting the M2 Air for it's lightness, design, and overall experience of using the device. Especially for students, take advantage of the student discount since you could get this device with upgrades for almost the same price as the M1 Air!!

    MacBook Air m2 15inch user here. when I was researching on what MacBook to buy I was first considering the base m1 MacBookAir, but after I went to the Apple Store to see the MacBook I ended up hating the big bezels. so I ended up buying the MacBook Air m2 13inch with 8gb/512gb and I loved it but I was constantly worried about the ram usage. just the software uses about 3.5gb of ram and I had this crazy thought that I would be doing video editing and rendering videos for RUclips, but than I took a step back and realized that I just following the guidance and reviews of video professionals. don't get me wrong I have a TikTok account and I do edit videos but not professionally. so I returned my MacBook Air m2 and got the same configuration with the 15inch model and I like it a lot, I really miss the portability of the 13inch but I was after a MacBook that had a big screen so I can read manga, books, watch movies, anime etc...
    so to summarize I got the MacBook Air m2 15inch 16gb/1tb. I know some people are about to say " for the price you've could have gotten the m2 MacBook Pro " but as I sad before I'm not video editor.

    Can this handle multiple tabs? I just sold my macbook pro m1 because it cant handle the amount of tabs i do in daily basis.. was thinking getting m3 or just m2 with upgraded ram

    Yeah..been using it for a month..its really good.. but its a fault of mine to get the base version as i do video editing.. 8gb ram is too less and 256 gb storage variant is a bit slow.. however it is waaaay faster than other windows laptops within budget and chatge backup is insane with no fan.. so i would say a win win.. I'll probably get a macbook pro soon for my editing staffs.

    does it make sense to take the m2 air with 512gb ssd and 16gb ram for virtualization stuff and linux stuff?

  • @1KealeCade
    @1KealeCade 11 месяцев назад

    i only want an m2 for the mid night color. so i’m not trying to make this the most expensive machine. if the 256 ssd is slow should i upgrade to 512 or but the 16gb of ram??

    • @kerrydaniels8460
      @kerrydaniels8460 Год назад +1

      Do you need a laptop today or sometime next year instead? If now then buy the M2 and enjoy. If you don't need one now and can wait then you can just wait. There is nk official release date of M3 and with the chip shortage it could be well into next year so take that info and doxwith it what you will my man.

    MacBooks life spans are usually 7-9 years so if you have one of the newer models you definitely won't need an upgrade anytime soon

    I do play games on my m2 base Macbook air but the games that I play are really only games that would be good for the mac. Games I play are Roblox and Minecraft. For Minecraft i get 72 - 110 FPS even when i live steam. My m2 Macbook air has worked perfectly fine (so far).

    I bought my mom the base 15" for Xmas and now questioning my decision after all the posts about 8gb not being enough. I knew nothing about Apple and naively thought we could upgrade ram later. Wondering if I should take this back, even though she only uses basic apple apps, internet browsing, movie streaming... just want it to last for her at least 4-5 years without being too slow. Can't believe Apple would charge so much for a machine with 8gb and 256gb lol.

    Is the Macbook M2's single external (extended) display limit a hardware or software limitation or both?

    • @markholle3450
      @markholle3450 Год назад +1

      Hardware. Even the M3 MBP can only drive one display (although there is a work-around). M1 MBA user here. I use a 34” Dell ultra-wide monitor with Magnet and I don’t ever notice the limitation.

    • @verbon47
      @verbon47 Год назад

      Maybe upgrade to 16gigs of ram and 512 of storage, this is more because of the coding is more demanding then pure college work (writing essays and all that good stuff)
