Apple Macbook Air M3 (2024) 13 inch Midnight base model unboxing

This is the unboxing of the Apple Macbook Air M3 (2024), 13 inch, base model with 8gb Ram and 256 Gb SSD. Midnight (dark blue) color.
This will be mostly used for mobility purposes and not as my unique or primary work device.
I will make a separate video about the performance for daily tasks and Xcode.

Hi, I am wondering if it is going to get hot if you use Parallels Desktop and IDA Free?

[@TechTalkAdrien]

Yes, it will. And only 8gb of Ram will be painful to run Parellels even for Linux.

[@irandom6827]

Is it possible to coding with that. I mean is gonna work well if i started coding with that.

[@TechTalkAdrien]

Short answer is yes. I will make a nore detailed video about this topic.

Hi, do you think the base model is strong enough to manage several chrome tabs and share screen during zoom meetings for several hours?

[@TechTalkAdrien]

Yes. If there is nothing else running in the background. Only Chrome with several tabs and Zoom (or Teams) with screen sharing it will be just fine. M3 is a powerful processor.

Will 16 gb ram be worth it in editing and 4 k video editing

[@TechTalkAdrien]

Yes, will make a big difference. If you have the budget go for a MBP for more cpu cores.

A curious question: Are there people over eighty years of age who are very elderly people who own and will use modern smart phones???🎉

[@TechTalkAdrien]

I am not sure. I will let others give their opinion 😊
