I bought the M2 Air when it came out and have really enjoyed it so far. My use case so far was entertainment, taking notes, creating some light iMovies and some light coding. It is also my first Mac and I was debating between the M1 Pro and the M2 Air at the time. I decided to go with the air because of the design and weight. (The design is what sold me on the M2 instead of the M1 Air)

Have been using the M2 air (16, 512) for a week now & have been pretty stoked so far. Absolutely beautiful machine. I appreciate the argument that the M1 Pro or M1 Air offer more value for money. But for me, the M2 Air's design and form factor was the most important part. The M1 Pro may offer better performance, but I'm not a pro user and prefer a portable machine. The M1 Air may be a better deal, but I much prefer the design of the M2 Air. Overall I chose the form factor over "value for money" and was happy to pay a little bit more to get the machine that I'll enjoy using in the long run. Regardless, hard to make a poor decision with Apple's current lineup. Go with your gut!

I used the 14” M1 Pro for 6 months. I’m not a very heavy user. I sometimes make video animations in Blender using Cycles & light coding in Xcode. I switched to the M2 Air 2 months ago and I’ve loved it so much! It’s portability over performance for me. Think about what your prioritise. The 14” was too heavy and chunky for me. The sharp edges dug into my wrists a lot. It was very problematic for me when typing for long.

Used the MBP 14 inch M1 pro for a month and returned it for a macbook air m2 with 8 gbs of ram and 512 ssd. I have to say, the M2 is lightning fast, and I still haven't come across any real life scenerios where the MBP beats the MBA. I love my MBA and I don't regret switching the 14 inch MBP for the MBA.

I bought the M2 Air for my fiancé for Christmas she loves it so far. She is a Bachelor/Master student in Neuropsychology and I feel the M2 MBA can handle her 100 tabs and more. Should last her for a couple of years. I am definitely keeping an eye out for one of those discounted M1 MBP

I was able to get an M2 silver base model (the color I actually wanted) for $848 last week as an open box 5 days after its original purchase from Best Buy. I wanted something small and portable that I could take to class and work. As a graduate student in Public Health and Information Systems this machine has held up to what I do but in the coming days I’ll be able to test it further as classes for my IS degree pick up again. Excited to see how it performs compared to my main machine.

#M2 I was really on the fence between the M1 and M2 Air a few weeks ago when I decided that get my first MacBook in like a decade. What pushed me over the edge to the M2 was the hardware design with the improved screen, keyboard and magsafe. I was able to get one refurbished from apple and have been super happy with it. Coming from cheap dell cooperate machines the M2 feels like an absolute tank.

#M2 - i have always been a windows user and decided to switch over to apple. I am a full stack developer and one day, i tried my friends macbook air m1 to see what the hype was about. Immediately fell in love with the sleekness and how it functions. Got the M2 right after work that day because of how sick it looked!

[roveism]

Wow, this is seriously the best and most honest review I’ve ever seen on YouTube… big love!

[mgdii]

I'm currently using my m2 air right now. Don't regret it, it's my school laptop and I honestly love this thing. The midnight color is so great...but cleaning is a nightmare because I've never noticed how dirty my laptops get before I got this midnight finish, but I still love the laptop.

Literally the design alone made me go for the M2. MagSafe and 2 ports is a great combo

That Hamilton, Messi, Ali canvas display is awesome! Great taste!

I got the M2 MBA 16/512 refurbished for 1200$ and I’m extremely happy with it, had a 14 MBP before but portability is a must for me.
The MBA is so slick, light and powerful for what I do. I do not edit photos or videos, I’m not a software engineer and I do not compose music. I just need a snappy, light and powerful laptop for my office work, Finance apps and light coding. Very pleased with it

[johnroedbacting]

Never regret and very happy with my macbook m2 :) Still super smooth and fast..

[northerncityproductions]

Dude i love your cinematic skits in the beginning of your video! Well done :)

[Azeria]

given that where i am, the 14 inch M1 Pro Macbook Pro was already the same price as I paid for my M2 Macbook Air… i should’ve got that, but only because the Air struggles in applications like After Effects, which ive just learnt i need to do on my desktop

for a portable, regular use machine? the M2 Air is still a beast and I love it.

[ziich]

I chose the M2 air over other options because of the color. I have no regrets.

[blehbleheh]

I'm leaning to the Pro/Max series but it's amazing just how the M1/M2 Air opens up developers and creatives in general to power for under $1000, which would have cost several times as much a few years ago. Sure, it's not going to replace a 128 core RTX rig, but you can churn a lot of great stuff relatively seamlessly compared to an x86 in a similar price range.

[fazethemoney]

I got mine for only $600 dollars which was the base spec, but it was brand new and I can't complain.
