Annoying Things about the M1 MacBook Air…😭 #tech #apple

[Shivamdoeseverything]

Those sound like your personal issues. Mac isn’t for gaming to begin with. Work wise this is a beast, depending on what your work is.

This computer is a beast for students and professionals who need silence, portability, and battery life, all for an affordable price. I have both this model and a gaming computer as well and you cannot take the gaming laptop out for more than 1 hour without it dying. My opinion is that this computer is perfectly designed to fit the needs of the market share it satisfies and tbh if you need performance you should get a windows desktop with a decent graphics card because from my experience gaming laptops suck.

I just bought the m1 Air for school and Thing is hell of a beast! I returned my new ASUS laptop because the battery life is crap and sometimes it’s laggy on adobe programs. Don’t buy the M2 or M3 if you want to save money just get the M1.

Just the two ports are my issue. Been using mine since 2020 and it’s my daily driver for after effects animations, large page layouts and photoshop.

Honestly, I didn't really care about games when buying my laptop, I wanted long battery and for it to be silent because I'm super sensitive to sound. In my case I got the M2 one because its efficiency cores are way faster than the M1's. Surprisingly the IPC of that CPU's cores is so high it sometimes beats my Ryzen 7 3700X that draws 50W instead of 5W for the same job.

Personally these aren’t massive problems. The ports aren’t an issue, I can just have a nice dock at my desk, which for me is better than having everything attached to the laptop directly because it’s only one cable. I also don’t mind only having one display output. Having the internal display and 1 external is plenty for me. And as for gaming, we’ll I don’t really game so idc

Good, doesn’t crash as much as windows but overheats often for me

[AlMamunVideos]

I have a MB Air and none of these you mentioned are "issues" to me.

[gomesbruno]

my biggest issue with macs is the macos. I hate everything about it, from how to setup mouse and keyboards to how windows doesn't snap when you push them to the edges. if I wanted to download weird extentions whenever I plug anything new I'd still using linux

[samdavidh]

I bought myself an M2 Air, but I’ve had to also buy myself a gaming PC for at home, the Air can only be a portable machine since macOS isn’t daily driver ready for me and game support is non existent. Plus the STUTTERING in the UI

if I hear one more person complain about the Mac lacking in the gaming department I’m gonna snap.
Apple has made it very clear that the Macs and MacBooks are oriented for heavy work. Not intense gaming. They tried gaming once, and it didn’t really work out. The Mac is specified for things like 4K video editing, high quality sound production, high quality rendering of media. Not gaming.
I say this as someone who is yet to own a Mac, but a weak gaming PC.

2012 Macbook is worse 1 USB c connector and 1 headphone jack

[harveybayaebon]

No issues since I bought this machine strictly for office task and work related task. I have my own gaming PC at home.

[rgbonjour]

I don’t like that I cannot plug in a USB hub like that since I put a hard protective case on my Mac.

[tomsun]

You got valid points that i did fear, too, but they become irrelevant for me. I have an external 21:9 1440p monitor with USB-C, Hub and power delivery, i have an external TB-NVME enclosure and an Hub with DP-port, LAN, Card-Reader and some USB-Ports. So the lack of ports does not become a real issue. For gaming i do have a Gaming-PC.

This channel is so underrated remember the OGS when you get famous!

[rddegree]

My late two thousand eleven macbook pro just died for good. Been DJing and trying To learn music production. Life's on pause 😬

[projektlalo]

I went from a mid 2015 MacBook Pro to this just because I wanted a decent video editing/streaming laptop for as low a price as I could get. The only thing I really miss is the abundance of ports. The extendo is on the way though. 🤘🏽

[Ihavelostallporpuse]

Lets be fair the 2 USB C situation sucks and monitor support is also horrible at best but macs aren't meant for gaming, sadly you would need a 7 ton brick laötop for that

[WEHNIT_SD]

Nothing, after they made pre-made GPTK aka “Wiskey” gaming on Mac feels way better and now I can finally play some games and don’t have to buy a Windows laptop with a per month license while the license one time of the Mac is included in the price
