MacBook Air M1 in 2024: Why you should get it (4 years later)

The MacBook Air M1 is the best laptop for most people out there in my opinion. Such a solid option and you can really get quite a lot out of it for most daily tasks.

I've been working with a M1 air since launch, and it keeps rocking with my workflow, editing my youtube videos, photos and everyday tasks, I'll change for a newer model maybe next year for a 16gb version because it's my main bottleneck by now, 4k editing (with colorgrading) and photoshop work have some hiccups that adds up over time, but other than that, I really love my m1 air because it's by miles my best investment so far, the thing cost me 1k and made me 200k+ without a sweat (and without a fan haha)

Great video my man!

Just got a brand new MacBook Air M1 from Walmart for $650 for my work laptop and it was such a fantastic option, so glad you are making people more aware of that!

My partner's a pharmacy student and I think for her workflow the base m1 model is still the best laptop for her, she came from an older 2017 air and this would be a huge upgrade. It's awesome that the M1 is still competitive today!

I got a Macbook Air M1 base model last November - No slow downs till now and it was the best decision I made for my work

I bought official refurbished M1 MBA with 16GB ram almost 3 years, its performance is still enough for me now

Got it a few months back, best value for everything!

I've been using my almost four-year old M1 MacBook Air quite heavily for everything - gaming, video editing, productivity, you name it. Love it to bits. Never faced an issue having just 8 gigs of RAM. And I love your videos just as much as I love my MacBook, Andres! Perfectly composed from start to finish. And the days on which you AND Shevi upload videos at the same time are just the best :) Thank you for what you do!

I love how you place your laptops and other tech parallel to the edge of a table. I thought I was the only one with OCD about aesthetics and how I arrange things on the table lol. Always love your aesthetics man.

Thanks for this. My son who just started high school, has the M1 MacBook Air and he was worried that it wouldn't run Adobe Suite. Your video put my mind at ease and save a bunch of money that he doesn't have to upgrade now that we know how the memory works.

I still have the MacBook Air 2017 and it still works pretty well. I have been thinking about upgrading to MacBook AIR m1. Thank you for this video!

My 1max has completely changed the way I work. Mainly used imacs and the imac pro in the past. Having a laptop not only better than those but also unplugged is amazing. Waiting for M4 or M5 max to upgrade.

The M1 MacBook Air works very well for music and video production. As a certified audio professional, I run many audio projects some with up to 80 tracks with plugins and the M1 MacBook Air handles everything without complaining.

got my m1 mac yesterday and i do not regret it. i have got a desktop windows computer thats better on paper but i have never seen da vinci run so quickly on my brnd new device. This Macbook is worth the money

[allenz]

Still using It since 2021, I have done basically everything on it, it is just the perfect laptop for the price

[manojlakhera]

I have been using this from 2 years now and I CANNOT RECOMMEND this ENOUGH! Amazing machine.

[chriscasillas]

Brand new from Walmart for $650. Definitely the best deal and the only deal that makes it worth it not to go for the M2 that is now selling for $800 at places like B&H. I've used the base M2 since launch day over 2 years ago and, like many other comments here say, they are great machines for the majority of users. M1 or M2.

W video Andrés Im actually in the market for a laptop and was and am still in a little debate on what to get this video might’ve helped me to accomplish what to get

[razahusain]

Watching this video on an M1 Macbook bought this machine a year ago, this is the best laptop you can get truly by all means
