Yesss
Andres literally just talked about this scam and you people still arent stopping?
Telegram me👉@Andresvidoza0
thanks
@@johnandrew1742 they are not even watching the video if someone is talking about them or not. They don't care.
You can block the user so they can't comment in your videos
Andres doesn't delay with his videos 😂😂, just from watching his other videos on the feed then a new one pops "17 mins ago" . Real definition of loving what you do, never disspaoints
You office is setup perfectly. Obviously a lot of thought went into every piece of furniture and decor you selected. Impressive. Well thought out review. Thank you!
I just received my 14 M1 Pro from my office yesterday and oh boy this machine is great. But then after a while I started to feel the weight is somehow very noticeable (I was coming from an 13" spectre x360) and boy how do I want to swap it with the M2 Air ... but then again, that's very human. Other grass always seems greener. Both are best of the machine for today and you will never false with your choices :)
I got the air because I use it just for browsing and RUclips, oh and I do carry it around the office often. Otherwise if I just leave it in one place most of the time, I’d definitely go with the pro with the better screen. I envy the nicer screen too mate, 😂
14 is much better, especially with regards to the screen and sound
I really like your industrial type work desk/bench. When I was working for a electronics repair shop, we set up wall to wall work stations using components similar to yours. Never ending drawer storage space and stout/tuff workbench surfaces. You have the right idea. Good luck!
I’m glad you discussed the issue at hand with these crazy RUclips comment for a lot of creators, it’s crazy RUclips hasn’t done anything yet about it, dope video my brother, I’ve been editing with my M1 Max MacBook and it’s honestly ridiculous, I breeze through edits like no tomorrow, I feel like it works best with apps that are meant for iOS especially Final Cut Pro. I don’t know why Adobe still has issues on iOS.
It's crazy how often I see blatant crypto scams starring Elon Musk, how is it even possible such shady content can become an ad and even stay up for so long...
i literally just got up to catch andres vid in time,i quickly made my bowl of cereal,i have to say your vids are worth it to eat and watch at the same time andres
I also have both M1 Pro and M2 Air - agree with all your points - I find the lighter travel weight and longer battery life of the M2 Air is more of a go-to for me
Agree with your point
The air m2 looks cleaner too. I bought the m1 air for college instead of the m2 and I regret it. The m2 is just really aesthetically pleasing.
@@Rockstarskar M1 got that weird screen with these big black bars all around, m2 air looks much better and has better UI with magsafe.
I do love how the air is lightweight and sleek but my air doesn't last as long as my pro , well technically not mina but my you get brother has the air and he uses it for studies....for my digital art that's not enough, but in my experience....I do digital art almost everyday and my brother uses for only RUclips consumption and school yet my pro last longer...idk....🤷♂️
I love this video! Your contributions are actually valuable for real-life use, particularly the small things which are just about quality of life :)
It's impressive how much tech stuff you have. Just amazing.
Great video Like always!
And I love that vscode theme!
Great video Andres, really appreciate your way of comparison and making different use cases clear, thumbs up !
it crazy never gotten a macbook for 7 years now but have watched lot of video. so much love these lapttop. really love your review. just found your channel
I git the M2 Air and absolutely love it. The performance trade off for the extra battery life is huge for me as I take my laptop from place to place for work
M2 having better single core scores isn't weird, it's expected. It's one of the improvements that comes with M2. I think it may also support newer codecs in its dedicated media engine vs M1.
oh okay
Thanks for content bro. I never have a MacBook so it's good to know what to buy in future tech
Thanks for the content 😊
Thank you for watching bro!!!
Great video as always mate! 🔥
Thank you Andres. After nearly 40 years of live music performance, recording, and mixing, I've suffered a sizeable amount of hearing loss between 2000 and 6000 hz. So, when you did the audio speakers comparison, I immediately noticed that the Macbook Air sounded clearer and more defined to me. I believe this is a result of the audio reflecting directly off of the screen achieving a much better mid-range response. When I edit audio, I'm always wearing over ear headphones, so I'm not too concerned about hearing the full spectrum of sound from the onboard speakers. I think this comparison was useful for people with mid-range hearing difficulty.
Thanks for addressing this issue. This is a common problem on this platform.
I LOVE my m1 air. I only ran into issues with running a scripting program while making a power point with about 22 tabs open for references.. it made PowerPoint a little slow but I was still able to get it done. in the 2 years I’ve owned it, that has been the only hiccup
Super video. Thank you.
Probably the best comparison of these two machines, thanks
as normal did nail the visual ! and for about a week I got many scam comments for my oldest comments continously so I'm glad you did address it .
Also side by side, the air feels MUCH lighter than the pro. 3/4 of pound doesn't sound like much but it makes more difference than you would think.
How Man ! This is A TRUE RUclipsR ! I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH ❤❤❤
That disclaimer was so important !
👍👍
Great reviews on both laptops.
Well done for addressing the scammers. They are everywhere and you are awesome!
😂 Yes they are ⬆️
i wonder why they are more on tech review channel than any other channels
These videos involving the Air and Pro helped me decide on an M2 Air that's on its way. Keep up the work, both entertaining to watch and have some good knowledge with them!
Super happy to help!! you really wont regret it!
I've been waiting for this video since the M2 macbook air came out!
I have the 14 inch base m1pro MacBook Pro from when I saw ur video about it ... its truly an amazing pick for me ... thx Andres for the video ...as always amazing
Appreciate you bro!
Great video, again.
Much love John!!
I love how you broke down the comparison of both devices. I feel the air would be great for me if the size was a lil bigger
Apple will release 15 inch air on the beginning of this year !!!
@@AliAhmed-ki2uc unfortunately not
@@10ciwanfortunately they did😂😂
good content!!
A video which I was waiting for 👍💯
Happy to hear that, I feel like a lot of you were waiting hehe
Waiting for this vid 🎉🔥
Hope it helps!
The thing I wanted about the air is it's lightness and thinness and battery life. For MacBook pro 14 , the power and screen. Rn I got the MacBook pro 14. My only issue with it is the battery in Monterey , it's not what I was expecting as well as the weight. Idk sometimes I'm thinking that I should have just chosen the 1tb ssd, and 24 gb ram air m2 over the 32 gb ram pro 14... I'm thinking of selling it when the new pro's come out, hopefully it will next year not this year 😂
What were you expecting from the battery?
@@PrateekGuptaOfficial apparently he thought it would be a .5lb laptop with a 3lb battery taped to the back.. not sure how 12 hours of real use isn't enough for anyone
Thank you. This put me at ease with ordering my daughter the 24gb ram 1tb ssd m2 air. (I personally have 64gb ram 2 tbssd m1 max 16 inch)
Super Video Bro
I really love pro version, it has fans which makes it fully utilize it's processor
Got the m2 macbook kinda wish it was bigger with that color, it’s way lighter than my omen 16 which is sitting on my desk in my dorm rn being a beast, but honestly if i had more money would of gone with the 14’, even though i love that midnight color
the ProMotion XDR display on the pro is just something I wouldn’t wanna miss
I returned the 16 inch for the 14 inch, then the 14 inch for the m2 air lol... im happy with the M2 and not noticed any issues with performance.
My thing im going back and forth about is the speakers from the macpro14 inch vs the m2 … whats yours thoughts on the speakers and sound ?
hello, I'm a computer science student, I'm thinking of buying a 16 ram macbook air m2, I'm curious about the air model even though I don't deal with extensive coding.. would you recommend it for medium-sized projects and coding? What if I use it with 8-10 tabs open? Could you please tell me about your long usage experience that you are satisfied and not satisfied with :( Thank you in advance..
@@enesmalikaltnpnar3763 Any M series chip can handle that. Also if you buy direct from Apple you have 14 days to return for a full refund if you don't like or want it
Yeah I just need it for my RUclips channel when I’m doing some traveling so I think I’ll pick up the air thanks for the review
i like how this guy said i know macbook videos get views so im doing another keep it up man lmao fire content fr 💪🏻
I love your videos ❤
Thank you so much!!
The 14 Pro from 2021 base model i own. It is my favorite Mac product to date. Has and does everything i need and will last me 4 to 5 years most likely.
i am loving my m2 air.. my dream came true... bought on september with my own hard earned money
Thank you ! I have the M1 Pro but I find myself missing the minimalism of the Air and most of the time I use my laptop connected to a 34” monitor with a usb hub with a couple of task specifics drives.
Which monitor and which hub please?
Hey, thanks a lot for this. Exactly the info I needed to make the decision. Although I’m still back and forth! The Air would actually be better for me except that I do some video editing and photo work. I just think with the Pro I won’t ever be frustrated with power, speed, etc at these times. But what about the M2 MacBook Air vs M2 MacBook Pro 13”???. 🤷🏼♂️
Don't touch the 13 inch m2 pro. It's hot garbage
Super useful esp that I’m gonna get a new MacBook this month! Thank you!!
I love and hate the mba m1.. I love that it's very portable that I can bring anywhere, anytime with one of the best battery life laptop ever exist but I also hate that the old design has very sharp corner making uncomfortable when I rest my palms on the edge of the laptop... The rounded design on the new lineup I think for me is the best decision they ever made not only it looks modern but also more comfortable to type on for long use and now I'm feeling the sharpness of the edge as I'm typing rn... arggh
By seeing FINALY someone test these bad boys WITH EXCEL (THANK YOU) - not ALL the world is editing videos :-))) you have a new subscriber ;-) !
thanks a lot!!! u just got a new subscriber....
Welcome to the channel!!!
Very nice review...
Thanks alot!
my late '13 15" retina macbook pro just died, just ordered the 14" M1 pro... seemed like it was going to be the most similar and with best buy having them $400 off, appeared to be the best option. we'll see what I think when it comes in!
1:29 ...that look back at the RS3 is how u know u done right by it 😁👌
Thanks for the more space display tip at 6:00
Great video, love your content! What VS code theme is that?
Esto es otro NIVEL gracias Andrés 👏👏👏💯
Gracias broo !!!
Nice video, loved it 🧡
Thank you! 🤗
Love your videos mate, just savig up. I was gonna buy the MacBook Air but the fact that to connect another monitor and do extra steps, made me want to just go straight up for the MacBook Pro or Max. I wanna kill those SoC with Houdini more than ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
good information.. i like that bro..
thanks alot bro!!
Your voice is little low in this video, but loved it ❤️
i got the m2 air midnight and i absolutely don't regret the color, the fingerprints arent as noticable in real life and my fingers dont sweat as much. i have only wiped it down with a micro fiber cloth like 4 or 5 times since i got it on launch day
i think this review undervalues ProMotion. in my opinion, ProMotion is essential. having come from windows with a 144hz monitor, i find it hard to switch to 60hz. the macbook air’s 60hz screen alone was a dealbreaker for me.
The sound quality of the Air sounds better in the video ^^
Love this video, love the detailed explanation. After learning about both machines, I'm going to go with both. I know the pro would be more of a desk laptop and the air would be more portable as I travel. Thanks for the video.
I actually have an M1 Air and a M1 Pro 14". Might eventually settle on one or the other but both do have their advantages in size, weight, convenience and performance.
That means you are not the one referring people to chat on telegram?
Lmao
🤣🤣
How do people still fall for this?
@@mrlimey2419it’s actually insane dude lol
Dude.... you seriously think they'd use telegram for fan services and what not ? That's like the least authentic app you can go on .
Im so happy for you andres
thank you so much broski!!
No problems
Every youtuber ever: "the macbook is so cool with 3 ports"🤓🤓🤓
Me with 28 ports on a 200 dollar laptop😂😂😂
Bought the 16 inch MacBook Pro and love everything about it ❤
I scaled it up in my MBA because I like things bigger and less strain on the eye.
If money wasnt a problem i would go with the m1 14 pro....but the m2 air base model is enought for my use and its really light and compact
You should of mentioned the M2 AIr's keyboard flex (downwards like a mattress) when typing
Great video and advice
Got the m2 air and have no regrets all depends on what you need
Having said that I got the 16 ram and the 512 hard drive not really e cause I need it right now
More for future proofing cause these days you can’t upgrade like you use to back when
So your stuck with what you got when you buy
Plus with the 512 hd you get the faster read and write speeds
Great video, now if only some of the pro owners would use some of this type of rational thinking on the macrumor forums lol. Constantly putting down the m2 air and pushing everyone and their mother to buy the 14" pro, even if its for checking emails. Its insane. Im super happy with my M2 air and very much value the portability and never once had an issue with the performance of this little beast of a machine.
Once I saw the size of the Pro and experienced the slimness of the M2, I knew what was the right choice. The Pro is positively bulky in comparison.
Hey love the vid, please could you navigate me to where did you get the big neon anke light above your desk, I wasnt able to find it in the describtion links & Im searching for something similar
You should also build a large project to compare performace, as many want it to code. Next time include it in your performance test.
I'll try to build something bigger but the thing is that itll only be using one framework... I dont have time to build a a massive project. Im also trying to dive back into iOS so I can maybe do a backend in django or express
I just love space grey colour.
I grabbed a M2 air with 512GB and 10-core GPU with 4 charge cycles off Craigslist for $600. It’s a beast
Hello, thanks for your video, I enjoyed it and it helped inform my purchase. Can you share which camera lens cover you use? I know Apple does not recommend using these and states that anything used must be extremely thin. How does yours apply to the screen? Is it noticeable when closing the screen? Any issues with it?
514 West Island represent! 🤙🏼
How nice would it be to have a reliable laptop😂. My laptop is currently 6 yrs old and only dual core I hope this would last for 4 more years in my CS course😭😂. Love the content💕
The air m2 is a dream! I think it will pave the way for an era of powerful and lighter MacBooks
After much deliberation, the notch put me off completely however in the end i did pick up a base model air m2 and i am very happy (dark wallpaper hides the notch) i have been running Xcode without issue so for coding on the couch it is perfect and a relatively low price point managed to get it for £1079 in the UK. Wasn’t bothered about the slower reported SSD either I am not a hardcore user most of my coding is in vscode or Xcode and I’ve never had millions of tabs open either. Like it so much my son now has my iMac. Sure it may not be future proof but in honesty i tend to buy a new machine every 2-3 years anyway. I did look at the pro but the entry price point is high in the UK and to be honest its power is largely wasted on me. Nice video as always Andres

@@enesmalikaltnpnar3763 with 16gb of ram I’m sure you’ll be fine as to the tabs I never have that many open but if you go 16gb I don’t think it will be an issue at all
I like your videos man hoping for more 😊
I wish I had one 😢
Are you noticing any issues with the battery? I lose about 10% of power overnight (about 8-10 hours) every time I put the M2 air to sleep. I’ve had it happen with 2 different units now. Not sure why it’s happening.
7:52 I like that touch😂
15:45 - a great shot!
This should appeal to video editors especially)
Bro, are you from Montreal? There are french shops in your video 🙂
Im still using a 2015 MacBook Pro 13'' for my pro photo editing with Capture One and Affinity Photo and now I think it wouldn't make make sense for me to buy the pro for the XDR screen and the sd slot, my question is do I loose processing power with the air? I guess not!!
In my opinion, based on experience. An air is going to be planned for 2 or 3 years with “good” performance before all apps get updated with more characteristics, includes MacOS. Then it will start having low performance. At least it was my experience with a mac air 2015. But in the new ones, it can be slightly different, because they are using its own processors but not sure. So, I prefer to get a MacBook Pro with M1 Pro or m2 pro. I have a MacBook Pro m1 (13”) and a MacBook Pro M1 Pro (14”) I noticed on my daily work that M1 Pro is getting me a smooth work that m1 (in general takes more time to complete tasks and, in general, it is not responsive than M1 Pro)
I have never owned a MacBook before , should I buy a MacBook Air m2 to learn software engineering for 4 years of university ?
I’m thinking of getting the M2 MacBook Air 512 GB SSD. But worried about the sound. Another video put side by side M2 Air and intro Pro to test the sound. The Air was hard to hear. I know the Pro has better screen resolution, but doesn’t seem that big a difference. What do you think about the sound on Air.
What paint did you use on your walls?
I've had the m1 air for over a year now and it is unbearable during the summer. It gets way too hot during teams meetings and if the m2 is the same I wouldn't recommend buying it if you live in a tropical area. We have temperatures around 25 degrees celsius or 75 Fahrenheit.
Another creator not related to tech per se, said’ Quit acting like this is your first day on the internet”. No creator is going to do “too good to be true” deal.
"I like them, they're both pretty good, one is some amount faster" could sum up the whole video.
Yeah okay we get you like it, but maybe more than 1 qualitative test in a comparison review next time? Browsing the internet, typing code into notepad, and running Excel are all things my $350 laptop from 2014 can do just fine. What are the reasons these two are good choices in general?
