      Artlicious I guess... that really depends on what configurations you get in your laptop. I guess you could get away with basic iMovie editing. More manipulation such as Final Cut Pro, you’ll receive some lagging and maybe some occasional freezing but nothing too extreme (this is on the base model)

    I really want the Air bc it’s so slim and light. I will probably only use it for school & Netflix. I do edit but I edit small edits on videostar which I love doing on my phone so I won’t need my laptop for that so I think I’ll be fine with a MacBook Air.

      She’s talking about if you edit with bigger editing programs like After Effects I’m also an Instagram editor like you and since I edit with After Effects so I use a MacBook Pro because, the program sometimes crashes when editing, the air is good for doing homework and watching movies and surfing through the internet, while the Pro is good for editing or gaming.

      adore subliminals it should be fine, I edit on ae on my MacBook it air, I edit sort of heavily now, but after having it for like 2ish months it has gotten used to my heavyish editing
      I just suggest upgrading the specs to i5 and 16gb if possible for a better experience

    • @runaiik
      @runaiik 4 роки тому +9

      I got the air around early May and it’s pretty alright, the fans sometimes turn on when I’m editing because I precomp. But now after having it for about 2 months I feel like it’s getting used to my “antics” because it barely over heats when using ae, it’s been getting better. Currently I’ve been trying to animate which requires a lot of layers + then the layers and effects for the edit. It’s fine if you just use it for school and Netflix. The times when the fans were really loud were when I played gimkit for school (which probs won’t be an issue after this whole thing ends), and when I was presenting my science fair slides (which used both chrome(that already used a lot of ram) , camera, and screen recording)...
      Hope this helps you :)

    I've been wanting the 2020 MacBook Air since it first came out! Here where I live, Norway, we have a different school system than America, and I'm starting in 11th grade ("High school" in Norway = 11th-13th grade), and we need a computer when we start. The school sponsors two Macs (MacBook Air and MacBook Pro) and another computer each year, and this year they're sponsoring the 2020 MacBook Air in space grey, and I could not be any happier! I also get student discount so I only need to pay $500 for a NEW MacBook Air!

    I literally chuckled at 8:06 when you made that comparison about the fan noise on your old MacBook Air vs your new one.
    I see you also did your research. A lot of people (especially some tech UA-camrs) have been throwing around the word "over heating" when in fact it DOES NOT suffer from over heating but rather the device itself thermal throttles. When the components of the computer get too hot it begins to slow down so that it can recover and cool off. But props to you for actually doing your research. I feel like the points you made were very well thought out and you weren't loosely throwing out information. I really enjoy your videos and love the aesthetic and feel to them. I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the fact you put in so much effort into your videos.
    FYI - If you end up wanting to switch your MacBook for the pro you can do so later than there 14 day period just make sure it doesn't exceed more than a month. Customer service at apple is extremely understandable and will gladly switch out your air for the pro if you just tell them the new model for the pro came out after you had purchased the air. And that the air just doesn't suffice with the tasks you are handling. :)

      @@sailorpook yeah since the pro costs more than the air. However if you're having 2nd thoughts on your purchase the option of returning it and paying the difference for the pro makes the process a lot less stressful as opposed as to being outside the return window and having to sell off the laptop yourself only to buy the pro.

    Yeah the Macbook Air is not made for editing at all. If you can’t afford the Pro don’t settle for the air IF you need it for editing because it’s not built to handle it. If it’s for school the Macbook Air should be fine. You can always buy a used Pro but it’ll still be pretty expensive because it takes these laptops a long time to depreciate. I would go for the core i5, 8GB memory and 256 GB storage for school. If multitasking is important to you go for a higher memory like the 16GB if storage is important to you go higher on the storage like 512 GB or 1 TB. But honestly if you need that much space or power just go for the Pro but check both the 13” and 16” because once you start messing with the specs that much, the 13” starts costing as much as a 16”. With mac what you buy is what you get. They don’t offer an SD slot on the newer models so you can’t get more storage so make sure you know how much you need. I’m not sure how difficult it is to get external storage for a mac.

      Yeah, I just bought the Macbook PRO with 8‑core 9th‑generation Intel Core i9 processor, 32GB memory, 1TB SSD storage and it is truly incredible. Love the integration with the phone and even my watch, which can unlock my computer. I also have like, 20 tabs or so open in Chrome and Final Cut still works smoothly with no hiccups or slow downs. It was worth the splurge.

      So true. I have a macbook air, macbook pro and dell xps. The macbook air I use for writing and school work. I had an air that lasted me through college. For editing and graphics i use my dell xps and macbook pro cause some software isn't compatible with macbook pro. People are just getting the air cause apple keeps hiking up the prices. I remember when you could get a macbook for $800 now they cost as much as a down payment on a car

      Only reason I'm looking at the air is to compliment my Mac Mini 2018/2020. But I worry about overheating issues people say if I get the base model the i3 I'm sure it wont overheat If I watch 1440p video why on earth people watch 4k or edit 4k videos is beyond me the display is not 4k. I also do light Photoshop and maybe 1080p video edits once in awhile.

  • @Elizabeth-mn6lm
    @Elizabeth-mn6lm 4 роки тому +33

    I love mine. I went through many many laptops with way better specs for example Alienware and I still love the Mac. I think most of people do not realize how Apple makes MacBooks so reliable compared to most of Windows laptops. Not many people have a working laptop from 5 years ago if it's not a MacBook. The Alienware with amazing specs sometimes freezes on me or gives me trouble and it's supposedly one of the best laptops so. This MacBook has an amazing keyboard, AMAZING SPEAKERS (I have never owned a Mac before but many Windows laptops) and runs very fast. I edited two videos and it was slower the more effects I put on it, but I figured that when I save it and then go back to working on it, it works very fast again. Does not get hot - SLIGHTLY warm, still not as much as some bigger laptops with fans lol and it is always quiet lol. Maybe I will get a Pro later and I'll just install Windows on it for personal needs. In overall, I love it. I have the I5 processor. Super light and I have it in gold too, looks beautiful. The cons maybe that it does not have USB but you can always get an adapter.

    The MacBook pros really last a long time and you’ll get your money out of it. My first MacBook was a refurbished MacBook Pro from 2013 and it’s lasted me three years still. I will say take into consideration what your school work will be. I’m a business major and I often have simulations I need to complete as well as statistics software running on my laptop that I don’t think a MacBook Air could handle.

      Caroline Grace I think it’s the better option because I have the 2017 MacBook Pro n it handles zooms well but barely heats up compared to when I used my sister’s MacBook Air . Air models have always known to have a bad fan system cuz of it’s slim build. I can run League of legends on the pro without it heating for a game or two. MacBook Air aren’t meant for editing or programs they’re more for typical use, great for college students essays and such. But having a zoom class back to back it’s going to heat up fast and the fan is going to start blowing😂

    got my macbook last year on christmas and after awhile it started being really slow. (i didn’t use the laptop as much, mostly for school purposes). and it broke last month out of nowhere. i went to the apple store and they said it was completely damaged inside and the repair would cost as much as a new macbook would. so i went to multiple places that fix electronics and all of them said they couldn’t fix it. so instead i just bought a new macbook since i’m starting school in a couple weeks and i need a laptop, it’s arriving tomorrow. i’m really hoping it doesn’t break like the old one since i won’t be able to afford a new one again.. the macbook that i bought was on sale and also includes free airpods for the student discount. so we’ll see lol

    The reason that the laptop is freezing if you have the tabs open and the browser along with FCP is because you probably bought the 8Gb version. Probably if you had ordered the extra 8 Gb it would not happen from what the other reviewers were saying. I'll know in 10 days when I get mine.

    In regards to The Sims I played sims on my mac book air and If i played for more than 2-3 hours it would start to over heat.But in short intervals it worked really well.

    The Airs are good for documents, keynotes, GarageBand, picture editing if you buy a model with more ram, and anything easier than that.

    That is/was one of the doubts I had . I went to Costco today messing around with the Pro and I liked that touch bar.
