⭐️ 2020 M1 MacBook Air: geni.us/65QGP (affiliate) What's up everyone?! I hope you liked this list of M1 MacBook Air accessories. What was your favorite item? Do you have anything else that you think I should include in a part 2? Finally, which configuration is right for you? Would love to know what you think. Is this laptop that you would use and why or why not. If you’re currently using something else, please share your experience with me. I am grateful in advance 🙏
Is there a downside if you use a usb-c to Hdmi cable instead of an adaptor? I want to buy an external monitor for my m1 MacBook Pro and I would like to know if its better to go for an adaptor (type c to hdmi) or for a cable for that specific reason.
Thank you once again for your great video! Your recommendations/suggestions are spot on! I have the M1 MacBook Air, 8CPU, 512SSD. One thing you didn't address was your recommendation for an external back up. Currently I have a Time Machine external back up device. But just as my old, (ancient), MacBook Air from 2013, the Time Machine external backup is more or less the same age, (so it's ancient as well!). Can I continue to use the 2013 - 2014 Time Machine external back up device? Should I get an updated Time Machine external back up or is there another product you would recommend? If so, which one would you recommend? Thanks for the great advice from your videos and from your replies.
I am finally going to make the leap and purchase my first Apple Mac book. I was on the fence because I will use it for my business. I take pictures with my phone an iPhone and I wanted something less cumbersome. I wasn’t sure if I should wait for the new release but after watching your content I realized the MacBook Air is really more than enough for me. I will use these accessories and be a happy camper!!! Thank you 😊
@@prixflex8909 I am extremely happy with my decision to purchase my Mac Book. There is a learning curve b/c I have been on Windows all my life, but the system is amazing. It has made transferring documents and pics, videos to my laptop a breeze. It runs so smooth. I say please go ahead. You will not be disappointed.
i got that mouse, and the keyboard that goes with it, and i LOVE them. i need to do a few more adjustments to what all the buttons do, but it's so nice to use when I'm using my laptop connected to a monitor instead of by itself.
Fell in love with your clean no nonsense style of reviews and information delivery in the first video i watched from your channel. Now i have become one of ur subscribers. Keep up the good works.
I just bought a M1 air I am overwhelmed with all your presenting. I would appreciate a video with each of your favorites with maybe a link for your other items. I’m a 75 yo senior that’s a bit of a geek, :-)) and appreciate all your suggestions but now I’m soooo confused. Could you do something simpler for a beginner Mac air user? Thanks, I did enjoy hearing about so many options. I’ll see if you have a simpler video. Thank you for making the time to help your followers.
Hi Great video! I just receive my MacBook Pro M1. I use 2 external monitors on the old MacBook Pro via hdmi, now I discover the M1 don’t accept 2 external monitors, only one!! Any idea how to connect bouth monitors and what kind of duck station or hub allowed? Thanks!
Just bought the Samsung T7 for my M1 MacBook Pro and wow, it’s super quick! I only had enough to upgrade one feature on laptop so went for the RAM due to video and photo editing. I thought I could get external storage and I’ve got 1TB for £134 and it’s a bargain! Thank you so much for your help! 👍🏼
Man, I really love your videos. They are informative and I enjoy your reviews of products. This was especially helpful as I just received my M1 Air yesterday. I really love it and the accessories you suggested are a great help. Thanks!!!
@12:29 USB-C to HDMI cable! Thanks for pointing this possibility out. I didn't know such cables exist - I thought I would need an adapter or the Satechi hub to connect an external monitor. This cable is the most straightforward way to do it :-)
Wish I had watched this video before paying for extra storage on my Macbook Pro M1. My vote is for the silent keys out of consideration for the people sitting around me on a train or in a plane. Same for my iphone. It's distracting when the keys are clacking on devices around me. Looking forward to viewing more of your content.
Hello! Do you think a case is necessary to protect the MacBook? I prefer they way it looks without it, but does it scratch easily? I just bought my Mac and I don’t even wanna unbox it cause I don’t have the accessories to protect it. 😁 Thanks!!!
Tech Gear Talk i see! Hopefully everything will be fine. Im the type of guy that rarely uses a laptop bag so i would love to have the dongle thingy plugged in 24/7 and charging through it without issues.
Thanks for the usb hub info. Any recommendations on wifi antennas? My wifi signal is very weak in my room and I don’t always want to be in the living room when my roommates have company.
I currently own a 2015 Macbook Air, and I'm seriously considering buying the M1 Macbook Air. I'm concerned about the many issues some people have been having though, and in particular the fact that it it randomly shouts down. Are these issues widespread? Should I hold off a little while longer, or just go for it please?
Hi, as I'm looking at a hub I'm concerned that the 2 port hub will put excessive physical/mechanical strain on the MacBook ports if the hub itself is connected to many things.. like hdmi and usb cables.. Does the hub sit flash to the table once inserted into the mac or is it hanging from it?
OMG, I'm watching from Australia and you are fantastic, LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos! I have been looking at purchasing a MacBook Air and iPad and have watched all of your videos. I'm a research addict but have no tech sav. You are informative and have 'normal speak' which, someone like me who has no idea about tech specs, really appreciates. My dilemma is finding all the great accessories you talk about here in Oz. I'v read through a lot of your reviews and they are spot on - absolute quality. Thank you!
Hello! Im trying to find info confirming that a 3440x1440/60Hz resolution works without issues through the usb-c connection while charging the macbook air. Could you let me know if this is the case?
I was using my Macbook Air M1 peacefully, watching some videos on youtube. Suddenly, this video presented itself in my recommendations. Now I am unable use my Macbook. Gotta wait till I get all these accessories. Man, this is frustrating.
Personally, I would only buy full frame cameras if I had budget for the lenses. Of course, everything depends on what you'll be using it for. From an image quality perspective - those are all fantastic.
Thank you sooo much, I’ve been searching accessories, but couldn’t find any that have high reviews. And a special thank you for the docks bcs I couldn’t find any that don’t overheat too fast
Have you used the usb hub pass though charging feature, as some reported that it bricked their macbooks. I have a ugreen usb hub by the way, i used it like 2 or 3 times pass through charging but opt not to use it for now
@@TechGearTalk 👍 thanks for the response, just hope all those are just isolated cases. I agree, the battery life was indeed par compare to my previous laptop
the way i've been watching every macbook air video because i just bought one and i haven't even subscribed? changed that tho excited to see what the future holds for this channel :)
Thank you for this video. My 2014 MB Air was damaged and upgraded to a refurbed M1; 16gb ram and 512 for ~1400. I am so new to USB-C and this video came in clutch. I subscribed quickly for getting to the point and how seamless and beautiful your video looks on this retina display lol.
Just upgraded from an early 2016 12 inch MacBook Air dual core intel processor to a new 2020 16 gig, 1 TB MacBook Air in Gold! Excited to pick up this beauty tomorrow at the Apple Store! So psyched! Much needed upgrade for grad school! 😀👍🏾👏🏾💃🏾👩🏾💻💻🛍🎁💯
I am not a gadget geek and I really appreciate the way you explain things. I enjoy watching and at the same time learning from you. I am from the Philippines by the way.
Have you experienced incredibly fast battery drain with the Satechi hub? I have that issue with mine, not sure if that is normal or what should I do, but the battery really does not last more than 5 hours when the adapter/hub is connected
Hi, as I'm looking at a hub I'm concerned that the 2 port hub will put excessive physical/mechanical strain on the MacBook ports if the hub itself is connected to many things.. like hdmi and usb cables.. Does the hub sit flash to the table once inserted into the mac or is it hanging from it?
Does the Satechi usb c hub also fit 16 inch macbook pro? I'm thinking that when the 14 inch hits the market and i look to switch i'd like to keep this and not have to buy a new one if it fits all mac models....
Excellent reference video. Thanks. Question, Can you wirelessly connect the Macbook air to a TV (55Panasonic Smart TV) via screen mirroring as you can with an I Phone?
Excellent video! Great timing for me as I just bought the base MBA two tweeks ago. So far I've just bought a pack of 2 x USB to USB-C adapters while I decide on which hub and External HD to go for. One other thing which I'm looking to get is an external CD/DVD player-burner. As for clicky keyboards, I don't mind although I think someone using an old school typewriter would keep me awake! 😄
@@starrider2352 I just like to have the option that a disc drive offers. I'm coming from a 2011 MBP and 2010 imac, both of which have given up on me and both had built in superdrives! I do still buy CDs of my favorite bands occasionally too. Also sometimes watch DVDs on the laptop or connected to a projector (I thankfully don't have a TV!).
I like non-clicky keyboards but I can deal with the clickity-clicking if its just me! I’m studying music production and at any given time I’m toting a saxophone or two with me so I am definitely in the business of having the tools that do the most but take up the least amount of space and that are lightweight. This helps a LOT…you just earned a thumbs-up and new subscriber!!! Cheers!!
Finally convinced me to buy the new Mac Air, so much other tech for using with it. It will make editing much easier. Thanks for the tips, really helpful
How are the dual monitors working on the M1 Air? The video didn't go over on how the sidecar monitor is working and only talked about the gaming monitor. ???
TWO QUESTIONS: (1) I do not recall ever seeing a MacBook reviewer use a hard case to protect the computer's finish. Why is that? (2) If a hard case is used, will that prevent a hub from fitting flush against the MacBook's side?
1) I’ve used my MacBook Air for almost 7 years and I’ve noticed that the MacBook is more resilient than most cases on the market. 2) That might be true
What type of docking station do you use to set up 2 monitors with M1 MacBook Air? You can't find the Display Link 4K Plug & Display UD6950Z ANYWHERE. Is there another docking station that works?
Great Job and lots of great info as I consider the 13" MacBook Pro M1. I'm a video editor with 45yr experience and currently have a MacBook Pro mid 2015 with 2 external monitors, this is necessary for me because of multi-cam events with dozens of bins and thousands of clips plus I have old eye balls. I've talked with Apple and discovered that the M1 MacBook Pro supports just 1 external monitor but in your video I see a second external monitor. You mention a Dual Display Interface but I don't see it listed below, or what am I missing? Can you point me to this device, perhaps you have another video to better explain how this works with new M1 MacBook. I was thinking of a huge 48" curved edit monitor, with connections compatible with my older Thunderbolt and USB drives, the type monitor I could divide up the screen and maybe a sidecar iPad for scopes, etc. Thanks for any advice.
How is text clarity on that monitor? I have a 1440p 34" as well and text quality is not the greatest on mac. I have a USB-C to DP-1.4 cable, and the resolution is set to 3440x1440p 75hz, but still. It's something about how mac rendering fonts.
Do you think you'll need to update your list of accessories and recommendations in light of Apple's new MacBook Air M2? Great contents, awesome channel. Thanks!
Still a great video. I have been using an 27" LG Ultrawide that I bought for $159. Of course, it is only 1080p but it has worked great to overcome the one external monitor limitation. I just ordered a Dell 34" Ultrawide that is 3440x1440. I have heard that there are problems with either text being too small at this resolution or having to use less resolution for readability. Thoughts on your experience with this 3440x1440 monitor?

When you connect the display to the MacBook via the saitechi hub, can you use the screen in Retina mode? As in 1770x720 ?
Do you have the 8GB or 16GB ?

Thanks for the info. I have a 4 to 6 pin firewire cable that I would like to connect to a new Macbook air M1.
What hubs do you recommend? Thank you.
Numb Question: if all I want to do with my Mac is connect to my monitor wouldn't I just need a USB C to display cord?
Does the pro hub retain thunderbolt 3 on the USBC ports on hub?
Can I plug my USB hubs into the satechi pro hub? Thanks.
Can you use the USB C hub to charge while it's being plugged in to the laptops ports?
Absolutely. Just make sure you’ve updated to 11.2.2 or later
The most quintessential and practical accessories video for the MacBook Air I've seen yet. 👍 Thank you!
Sir which camera i should buy in these three
Canon 90d
Canon 6d mark ii
Or Canon EOS RP full frame

do you have any heating issue on satechi usb-c hub adapter?
Where can I buy them??

Is that logitech m355 or m350 pebble?
The bag is compatible with MacBook Pro 2020 ?
Definitely, Jose.
Me: who barely bought the macbook air with my pocket money day dreaming about these accessories.

I don't have a 16in macbook to test. Check their website - they should have all compatible devices listed
Thanks man, I didn’t even think of that haha. I just got a MacBook Air but I’m thinking of getting the 14 inch maybe a year later.
Would you be able to make a buying guide for budget ultrawide monitors for editing?
Let me see what I can do!
Clicky keys give me life! Cherry MX Blues foreverrrrrrrrr
YES!!!
Does charging the battery with a 100watt ac adapter pose any risk to the MacBook Air battery?
Devices will only pull the watts they need to charge, so it doesn’t pose any risk. You can’t “push” too many watts into it!
what is the racing game that is shown?
Excellent reference video. Thanks. Question, Can you wirelessly connect the Macbook air to a TV (55Panasonic Smart TV) via screen mirroring as you can with an I Phone?

Just a quick remark: If you got a cover on your mcb you can't the pro hub (the covers thickness prevents straight plugging)
Gotta respect videos like this. Thank you. Btw any messenger bag recommendation for both 13’ MacBook Air 2020 and iPad Pro 2020??
Do any of these hubs brick the system, that's been a major issue.
This was corrected with a macOS update (11.2.2 I believe)
What speaker are you using there?
The A2+, they are included in this video ruclips.net/video/HouSy0TaB6M/видео.html Hope that helps. Appreciate you being part of the channel!
What stand are you using on the monitor?
Hi Mark, I added it to the description for you. Hope that helps.
This man knows what budget is and really awesome content producer!
How is text clarity on that monitor? I have a 1440p 34" as well and text quality is not the greatest on mac. I have a USB-C to DP-1.4 cable, and the resolution is set to 3440x1440p 75hz, but still. It's something about how mac rendering fonts.
I have same issue and it is realy horrible to look... Hope they fix it.
Thank you, great content. Think I am getting the 13” M-1, to replace my late 2011 Probook!! I know..thanks to you! Helped a ton.
Do you think you'll need to update your list of accessories and recommendations in light of Apple's new MacBook Air M2? Great contents, awesome channel. Thanks!
But satechi supports 4k only with 30hz refresh rate..
There's no problem charging the air with the 16 inch macbook pro charger right?
Not at all. That one is 60W.
Still a great video. I have been using an 27" LG Ultrawide that I bought for $159. Of course, it is only 1080p but it has worked great to overcome the one external monitor limitation. I just ordered a Dell 34" Ultrawide that is 3440x1440. I have heard that there are problems with either text being too small at this resolution or having to use less resolution for readability. Thoughts on your experience with this 3440x1440 monitor?
