Why does every video claim to be talking about your biggest mistake ever?

[RodHerzstrom]

The biggest mistake that started 3 months ago🤨 But wasn’t the iPhone 14 Pro your biggest mistake? How many more are coming? Plz choose wiser my boy😂

I’ve bought the m2 air 512 gb midnight blue.. I’m using it for music productions.. my second Mac since 2013.. I can’t wait to use it

[agigcbo]

Agree with you for the most part, especially concerning ports. I don't understand laptop manufacturers these days who think that users don't have a need to connect peripherals. The minimalist approach I think has gone a bit far.

[jameslatief]

That horrible La La La song made my ear bleed though, doesn't matter which laptop you played it on.

Using a 16gb - 256gb midnight black one. Primarily used for app development. I use 3-4 containers running, sometimes 2 emulators and android studio, sometimes a ton of tabs and vs code and an emulator.And i use 8-10 apps running on background which boosts my mac efficiently (cleanMymac, maccy, textsnip etc ) Works smoothly. And I never used the performance mode . Keep it on power saving mode and still don't feel any issues with performance.heating is around 37-47°C. And the best part is i use it for like 16hrs each day. So donno about others. I'm satisfied with this performance. I faced the port color issue . but never noticed fingerprint that much. But i noticed dusts a lot because of balck color.

I just got a 2022 M2 with 8gb of unified memory. For school and casual browsing it works more than amazingly!

[JamesBS]

So pleased I got the 16gb version. Hasn’t missed a beat in 2 months.

Coming from a 2012 Macbook Pro (base) to the Macbook Air M2 midnight 512 GB, 16 GB ram, and 10-core GPU, it was definitely worth the upgrade. I could have upgraded a lot sooner. However having to hear people having issues with the butterfly keyboard, and getting rid of the MagSafe charger was a huge turn-off for me. But since I use my Macbook Air M2 for grad school and browsing the web, it is worth the upgraded specs. I've never had a performance issue for the 4 months I've had the Macbook Air M2. The portability of the Macbook Air is perfect, screen size and quality is amazing, and the battery life is unbelievable.

Lol I love how you slipped “NEVER” but a 13” MacBook Pro at the end like that lol

I have a 16in MBP M1Max and a new Air M2. I think the speakers are totally fine on the Air, the notch is a none issue on both, way too much fuss over that. I use the MBP for Red Komodo 6k editing etc and the Air for business travel. Both machines are simply amazing, just amazing.

Almos three months in and I love it. Smooth, fast, light, good looking, great keyboard. I traded in a mid-2017 MacBook Pro 13" without touch bar. That machine did everything I needed and saved me—I bought it in a rush when an earlier Air (2013) developed a weird keyboard illness and I was in the middle of a big project. But I hated not having MagSafe, and the keyboard sucked. I had Apple replaced it when the space bar stopped working and other keys sometimes worked, sometimes not. So this does everything I need to do--writing my blog, editing photos, watching Arthur, etc. I did opt for the 512 gb model, and added 8 gb for 16 gb total. Honestly, I don't have to think about the machine, it just does what I want it to do, no sweat. And it never heats up, so I can't use it as a winter lap warmer.

I have been trying to decide between an M2 Air and an M2 14" MBP. At first is seems like these systems are far apart, but once you start configuring the Air with 512 SSD and 16 GB memory to address the storage limitation and lagginess with multiple applications you mention, the prices are within $300.

[chrisp]

Should I get this upgraded 16RAM 1TB or base 14

[maryamhazem]

My major is graphic design, and I was thinking about purchasing a Macbook Air M2 midnight with 512 GB of storage and 16 GB of RAM. Would this be a good choice or is there a better one?

[stillatshore]

i returned an MBA 15 M2 1TB/24RAM for a base spec MBP 14 M2 (for $330 cheaper) and couldn’t be happier. the MBP definitely feels more premium, and at the discounted price it’s at now, it’s a no-brainer to get MBP

[drjamesclinichk]

Changing fonts in pages is super slow in MacBook Pro too. It is the problem of software but not M2 MacBook air

[christeder]

Can you tell what's bad about 13" Model? Fewer ports? You can upgrade ram and SSD. Or SSD speed for all are downgraded? Heating issues, display size does not fit all the info or why bad?

[dongon]

Is this MBA M2 with base varient good enough for Data scientist professional work ? Python coding work & some docker work, AWS work, tableau, power BI work ???

[HariyadiSaja]

Totally agree with you, Arthur. Previously I used MBA 2013 and I don't have any regret at all when upgrading to this machine. I just need to adjust how I type on M2 MBA. And I only need to charge it once a week!
