I’m sitting this out since I purchased the early 2020 MacBook Air. It works just fine for my needs. I’m sure by the time I upgrade (in a few years), Apple Silicon chips will be out of this world.
its 2023 and I just bought this laptop and I'm extremely satisfied with the purchase. this is also my first matchbook. I was using windows till now and oh boy the battery life and the raw performance of this laptop is insane. love the video and the product. thanks apple and zollotech
@@eduaordddsorry to reply after 2 months. Yeah so the experience has been great since it was my first mac experience. I found that Mac's shortcuts were more useful than windows' shortcuts. Its just like using an iPhone that has a bigger screen and a physical keyboard with a trackpad. Easy to use once you get used to it. Let me write down all the shortcut commands that I currently know and use on a day to day basis. - Cmd + Opt + Backspace (fully delete & avoid recently deleted) - Cmd + Backspace ( Delete the file & send it to trash can ) - Cmd + Tab ( App Switcher ) - Cmd + Q ( Fully Close The App ) - Opt + Arrow Key ( Move cursor one word at a time ) - Shift + Cmd + Arrow Keys ( Select All Text ) - Cmd + Delete ( Delete The Entire Written Text ) - Cmd + Opt + Esc ( Task Manager ) - Cmd + M ( Minimise Any Window Or Running Task ) - Cmd + A ( Select All ) - Command + Tab ( To switch b/w different apps ) - Command + T ( Open new tab ) - Command + W ( Close the current tab ) - Shift + Command + N ( Open private tab ) - Command + D ( Add favourite website to start page ) - Cmd + R ( Refresh Current Page )
I got it yesterday. Absolutely fantastic machine. Speedy, no fan AT ALL. No intense heating up. Runs everything, from old apps, to optimized, to iOS iPad apps, just spectacular. They really weren’t joking about the instant on feature when opening it up. I used to think the old MBP was fast. Not even remotely in comparison. No hiccups using my Apple Watch to unlock it as with the older MacBook with intel. Everything is just so streamlined now and I love it. Apple sheep for life. Don’t even care. Life is simpler with them.
The IOS app thing... its just a joke really... People will find it useful running iOS apps on Mac, but it needs work (trackpad to touch issues etc..) THAT is why we have no touchscreens on Mac..... Either they will see the evidence, or they will just keep wanting it regardless.. What will make people understand??? I ask you.
The startup chime is seriously underrated. I’m so glad they brought it back :) The chime, along with the glowing apple logo were the two nice finishes to Macs, it’s a shame they didn’t bring back the glowing apple logo now that battery life is much better (I know you could always enable the chime via a terminal command but it’s nice that it has a real toggle now)
I’m glad they got rid of the glowing logo. Firstly, it always felt super obnoxious when I was in public. Second, it was a completely unnecessary waste of energy. And third, it added extra thickness and weight to the body of the machine. I don’t miss it.
@@micahgoldson1253 The glowing Apple logo didn't actually use any extra LEDs, it used the backlight from the screen to illuminate. So no difference in energy consumption. But I agree I don't miss it, the new design looks slick and doesn't scream "look at me!".

Man I’m getting a 12 pro max otherwise I could get a MacBook Air I need a laptop too so planning to get a acer laptop I really wanted a MacBook Air but a 12 pro max is still enough
@@BigBooMama666 Could you get a free iPhone 12 via trade-in and then use the saved cash to buy a MBA? I think the MBA would be better quality of life (depending on how much you use it) vs a iPhone 12 Pro Max over the iPhone 12
Just got mine about a week ago. Space Gray, 16GB & 512GB. Loving it. Fast. Great battery life. Major boost to productivity especially with photo editing. Some minor software glitches with legacy Intel apps over Rosetta 2 but generally running way better than on my old 2014 MBA. Thanks for the recommendation.
Ahhhh I am so excited I just ordered my air M1 today I upgraded to 8 gpu with 16 gb memory and 512 ssd in gold. Can’t wait until it finally arrives. Did tons of days/hours of research. This will be my first ever MacBook! It will match my iPhone 12 max pro in gold.
- just bought one of these - the 256KB / 8GB version though, and I get almost two full days out of it off charger, streaming video and music from platforms. Really impressed so far!
This video looked great on my new 2020 MacBook Air M1. I've been using it for 3 days now, as they came out first in Australia. Love the gold colour! The screen is very impressive, as well as the speed and battery life. After a life time using windows PCs, there is a lot to learn here!
One of the things I'm interested in seeing is how support for third party operating systems will turn out in the future. One of the things I love about the Intel Macs is, that I can of course run the Mac operating system, and just about any other OS I want either by VM, or even natively. Both Linux and windows has ARM support already so would like to see where that goes. I've thought about building my own computer for the third party operating systems, however using a mac for this has the nice advantage of running mac os natively without modifications, and windows and Linux also run as long as the right drivers are available. So it's a win win situation. I of course run macOS on my macs, just saying having the option to change the OS is nice.
Wow, those benchmark scores are amazing! I'm looking forward to seeing how the MacBook Pro performs in the future, especially considering it does have the additional cooling fan unlike this MacBook Air.
My first thought was, “Aaron why didn’t you update to Ventura yet?” Then I realized it’s 2024 now and I’m just that far behind in getting my first MacBook
@@nidhim7632 which one did you get? Did you upgrade the gpu and ram/ssd? I am waiting for mine I upgraded to the 8 gpu 16 gb and 512 ssd. Super excited can’t wait!

This is amazing. Those figures will give my 2020 MacBook Pro 13" with 16 GB ram a run for its money. Can't wait to see your report on the M1 MacBook Pro, although I am disappointed that this only has 2 USB ports instead of the 4 which I have and often use 3 of them. Probably wait until next year anyway to see if they make the much anticipated 14".
It really needs to be pointed out, as some reviewers do, that this is pretty amazing, considering that it’s just 8GB RAM, which pretty much everyone agrees these days is just good for very basic computing. Apple has changed that.
According to another RUclipsr I watch. They said 90-95% of users should get this since not everyone is using hardcore or heavy loads They said it's good for editing, some gaming, streaming, school
actually if it was possible. most of the videos on RUclips could be shorter, because its the same Mac, just different internals... That would only take around 10mins right to explain ? Why go over the same thing when its been done? Point out the *differences* only, and that's that. Maybe people are new to Apple,, but a quick run down is all that's needed.. People who are u[grading know what's in the setup process, as we've done it countless times before.. in full
@@Tech-geeky that’s true for many of us. But the process dies change over time. As Apple keeps saying, a large percentage of buyers are new to the platform, so it’s certainly helpful to them.
I am planning on buying this particular MacBook as I want the 2020 model even though the newer ones are faster. I plan on using this as an extra as my regular Chromebook with 12th Gen Cori3 is my everyday. This will also be my first ever Apple product but I'm looking forward to it. I like the fanless feature. I'm not a power user so I feel it will suit my needs perfectly. I came away from Windows because I wanted a safe browsing experience. I had tablets for awhile but then I became interested in the Chromebook. I've added more safety with my Chromebook with an internet virus software as well as a VPN and I've been safe with that. I think the MacBook will be safe with these things too. Thank you for reviewing this device.

I just purchased this laptop this afternoon at best buy for 849.00 256gb in silver. I have been searching for my first laptop and I went with Mac, now with the iPad mini and iPhone11 I’m all set
Should I buy air with m1 chip with 7 gpu or 8 gpu? Also, the reason I ask is that the memory jumps from 256 to 512 gb respectively. especially considering that memory is cheap and can purchase 2TB very cheaply. I’m making my purchase at Costco to save on the bottom line. Thanks for your help.
Great video. Thanks for your efforts. One question regarding speaker volume. I have an older macbook pro and at times, wish the volume was louder. You mentioned a reference to the macbook pro in this regard and that there are some issues with this Macbook air M1 at higher volumes. As my macbook is several (many) years older, I was hoping things would have changed and that this unit would provide better volume. Any thoughts or should I try to go see one in person to test it before ordering?
ive had a couple of macbooks in the past. This laptop is heavier, lacks ports, if you are charging it youre left with just one usb-c port. The ports are close together so some things wont plug in easily. Many people have complained about bad smells, there is no choice of a 11inch version. Macbooks still wont properly work with NTFS disk drives. You have little control on when it turns off and on, its also nearly impossible to tell if it is turned on or not if you have a dark screen. When it was launched certain apps didnt run well or not at all (OBS, bluestacks). Plus points the screen is gorgeous to look at, good battery life, monterey is a great OS, fast video editing, good webcam, silent running.
Hola Sr. Aaron, thanks for the info I'm transitioning 1st time ever i have invested in this item. Don't know nothing about Apple products Yes I'm adventuring into this new IOS !!!! ever ....(not tech savy) but at 65 yrs it will keep my mind active and then i can show up with your help sssshhh. So again thanks for your schooling and Hello from Maryland.
I have so much respect for you for muting the "hey siri" part. I was reaching for my controller to turn down the volume because I'm used to people not muting it.
Here is a hint, when migrating from one mac to another you need to shut off the firewalls on both computers, and if you have a security program like Norton you need to shut off that firewall as well.
Are you picking up a new MacBook Air with Apple Silicon? Thanks for watching!
should i sell my early 2020 macbook air for this one i dont know, i think the one i have currently is ok for now

I was setting my MacBook Air 2020, and It told me to click option > control > shift > down key and now I’m stuck 😭😭
when zollotech posts i will ALWAYS BE THERE love you
@@brianhansen2202 of course not man!!!
Is it good for video editing?
IM GETTING A MACBOOK AIR M1 13.3 inch! SOON ON THE 25TH MY MOM JUST ORDERED IT AHHH!!!!!!!!!
I hit the subscriber button just because he muted hey Siri 😂🙏🏾
Great video. Thanks for your efforts. One question regarding speaker volume. I have an older macbook pro and at times, wish the volume was louder. You mentioned a reference to the macbook pro in this regard and that there are some issues with this Macbook air M1 at higher volumes. As my macbook is several (many) years older, I was hoping things would have changed and that this unit would provide better volume. Any thoughts or should I try to go see one in person to test it before ordering?
How considerate you are on muting yourself speaking "hey sir" lol
ive had a couple of macbooks in the past. This laptop is heavier, lacks ports, if you are charging it youre left with just one usb-c port. The ports are close together so some things wont plug in easily. Many people have complained about bad smells, there is no choice of a 11inch version. Macbooks still wont properly work with NTFS disk drives. You have little control on when it turns off and on, its also nearly impossible to tell if it is turned on or not if you have a dark screen. When it was launched certain apps didnt run well or not at all (OBS, bluestacks).
Plus points the screen is gorgeous to look at, good battery life, monterey is a great OS, fast video editing, good webcam, silent running.
Detailed video mahn ! Keep it up !
My dad may be getting one for me in the future, I can’t even back up my phone because my sister’s computer is too slow
You give a truly professional presentation. Spoken well. Very clear and concise . Thanks!
Hola Sr. Aaron, thanks for the info I'm transitioning 1st time ever i have invested in this item. Don't know nothing about Apple products Yes I'm adventuring into this new IOS !!!! ever ....(not tech savy) but at 65 yrs it will keep my mind active and then i can show up with your help sssshhh. So again thanks for your schooling and Hello from Maryland.
Still no touch screen?
Really appreciate saying hey and Siri separately and then muting all the "hey Siri" during the setup! great video
I like how they give you the option to agree or disagree for the terms & conditions, but if you select "disagree" you can't use the computer. LOL
😜😜😜😜🤣🤣🤣😝😝
One would think they've read the terms before buying the device 😂
Yeah I’m early I only saw Luke Mianis video then I came and saw your video about the M1 MacBook Air. Zollotech certified unboxing. Yeah ✊
I have so much respect for you for muting the "hey siri" part. I was reaching for my controller to turn down the volume because I'm used to people not muting it.
I just realized why you quieted down “Hey Siri”. So you don’t set off other people’s Siri! 🤣
This is an great video!
Here is a hint, when migrating from one mac to another you need to shut off the firewalls on both computers, and if you have a security program like Norton you need to shut off that firewall as well.
I have a habit of watching things that I can't even afford
Thanks Aaron. This will be my first Mac.
Same! How was it so far? Still waiting for mine.
@@YARA_Gelou absolutely brilliant. Apple did an amazing job.
Great review. Thanks from Chile!
I am upgrading ( trade in my 2020 Intel Air for M1) received $870 from Apple.
Can’t wait for fanless design and amazing processor speed!
I just picked up the 16gb air with 1 TB. Did I waste $ on the ram 😟. Cinebench Multi was 7092. single 1491
Damn. This blown away my ryzen 7 4800h in geekbench 5
This is Aaron from zollotech 🙌🏽
Fantastic review and very thorough, you’ve earned a sub my friend, can’t wait to buy mine today
Thanks for the sub!
