After a week of use, here are my honest thoughts..

Man, this laptop looks great but I feel like the previous M1 generation set a solid benchmark and won’t be forgotten fast. In my opinion the M1’s will be considered the peak of how laptops should be.

Definitely my "base model" starts at 1, 599 with 16GB and 512GB of SSD, it's just inexcusable the gap of performance with 256 GB model! And by the way, the midnight color it's just stunning.

I think the M1 Air raised the bar way too high and there were some high expectations for M2 but it's mostly a design refresh. The M1 still feels like the best bang for buck if design is not a consideration.

I bought a 13 inch M2 MacBook Air about 4 weeks ago. I opted for 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD. Before buying I agonized over whether to get the Air or the 14 inch pro. In the end, I chose the Air because of the lighter weight. I carry this computer with me everywhere and I love that it weighs under 3 pounds. So far, performance has been great for the things I do. I love this little computer.

The price really kills its appeal. At 1500 you’d have paid handsomely for the performance that the base model *should* have, but then after paying a premium for performance you’re left way too close to the MBP 14 to be comfortable with the M2 Air. M1’s still the peace of mind choice.

They definitely learned their lesson with the M1 and how good it was for the price. It sucks that you get the double whammy of the price increase combined with the base SSD and thermal regulation.

I think they went a bit too far and this will hurt them after initial hype dies down. The M2 air will not be an easy recommendation like the M1 was at $999 or less.

Definitely agree that I like the new shape of the M2 air over the M1 version. Really sad they messed up the SSD situation so bad.

I bought the M2 with 8GB RAM and a 512GB SSD. So far, so good!

I would now like to take the time to thank you for all the videos you have been pumping out, I can’t believe you hadn’t hit 1M yet!

It’s so close to being the perfect laptop, if they could have kept the M2 16/512 model in the $1400 ballpark it would be a no brainer, really unfortunate to have to pay nearly pro level prices to get the full benefit. Really hoping for a M1 vs M2 comparison with both having the 16/512 configurations in place.

Best of luck hitting 1M!

ShawnBlyth

They should’ve kept the 2 separate SSDs like what’s in the M1 air and this would be almost perfect.

It’s not fair to raise the price for a new model but get less performance than the old one.

Thanks for the review and testing👍

Haha Apple users discovering ergonomic design that isn't just beautiful but also doesn't slice your wrists. 😂

It is such a pity that a chip like the M2 is capped by seemingly “non-accidental” design mistakes. In particular the single chip SSD is really sad. Excellent video!

I ordered the 512/16 model, and I must say that the choice between this model and the 14 inch model was hard to make. But taking into account the discounts available to me at the time of purchase, the price difference was still around 400 USD, and I was not willing to spend that money for a not much bigger screen and extra performances that I don’t think I will need. I hope I made the right choice, but I am sure that I will be impressed anyways, as I will be transitioning from a late 2016 Intel MBP.
