15' MacBook Air Review: Everything I Wanted!

The world’s most favorite Mac just got supersized! The new 15-inch MacBook Air features everything I love about my 13-inch baby, including its portability, but now with a larger display. Ever since the 11-inch MacBook Air I have valued portability above all, but when I worked on any 16-inch MacBook Pro review recently, it made me ask if I would rather have a large screen instead.

8:09 you must be the only person on Earth having 64GB RAM in MacBook Air 15.

amazing & fast MacBook, perfect size.... its about time & the price was a massive shock, was expecting it to be closer to $2000. Picked up mine today

My only worry for this 15" is airline travel. Many people sitting in front of you simply slam/recline their seat without warning. I've even had issues with this behavior using my 12.9" iPad Pro. Note I travel in an economy seat, so maybe that isn't a problem for people that upgrade their seat.

Thanks for comparing it to other models. They are nice machines.

Finally…Mac air 15 inch…been waiting for it and it’s out now…can’t wait to have it.

So the MacBook Air went from a manila envelope surprise to a 15-inch beast? Talk about going big or going home

[Jimbob]

How did you get 64gb of ram? Max is 24

[riaden]

Thanks so much for the video, great information.

[headg]

Macbook Air M2 13" and 15" only supports max 24GB of RAM... right?

[IvanLai]

5:06 The MacBook Pro 16" weight isn't 2.6kg. On Apple's website, the M2 Pro model weighs 2.15kg (approximately 4.7lbs) and the M2 Max model weighs 2.16kg (approximately 4.8lbs).

Thinking of buying this as my first macbook, but I'm still waiting on reviews regarding durability. I think a conversation on portability should coincide with rigidity. And a laptop that thin may likely bend in the long run. Can't decide on the 15 or 13 inches urgh

[GearWave]

Thanks for sharing ! Absolutely LOVE this laptop. Wish it had more ports....if it did most people would not need anything else.

[Bethos-Arne]

how did you get 64 GB RAM installed in a M2 Macbook Air?

[godz]

I’m so bummed… i can’t even sell my kidney for a mac cause i have a kidney failure😂💔

[GearWave]

It's SO funny and ironic that you used the manilla envelope comparison because I had never seen the old skool ad.fkr the MacBook BUT was singing it's praises to people saying, "it's so light and thin- it feels like your holding a folder full of papers. SO light SO thin and the chassis has such a premium feel.

ONLY downside for me is the lack of ports. Screen is liquid retina and NOT OLED but looks really good and gets plenty bright. The Starlight color is FYAH!

[peterlin]

nice review！very well rounded covering all bases.

[Cutiedoki]

Really contemplating if I should get this and replace my 9 years old 13” MacBook.

[TXTundra-exbw]

Definitely going with 15" Air but I'm debating if I should spend the extra $200 for the 16gig of RAM or 512gig SSD? I don't plan to do any heavy work like photo or video editing with this laptop. Please advise thanks. great video

[GearWave]

Thanks for sharing! Great reviews....can the air be charged via the usb c ports?

[robsky]

great video, very professional was on the fence about getting the 14inch MacBook Pro or this 15inch air.
thank you
