    Thank you so much for creating a video that actually addresses questions students and consumers care about. Everyone talks about the specs and not much else, whilst you actually explained how it will effect the average student in their needs and expectations ❤️

    I have the MBA M2 base model and it's more than enough to what I do. The most intensive thing I do is the very occasional imovie editing. But for browsing, document works, pdf reading, student works it's excellent. Digging the new design, battery life, the new screen, magsafe, macOS and integration to iOS. 🙂 Plus the base model is even pricier in most countries outside the US with all the tax and exchange rates. 🥲 Nice video and looking good! 👍🏻😊

      Had the same dilemma, i also do coding and a bit of video editing in the end i went base model M2 and for what I do it smashes it. Xcode compiles might be a bit slower than the upgrades but for me that’s time to have a well earned brew. I got mine for £1k which means the money I saved on not going for upgrades or a pro means I can look at another base model in 3 years should I be tempted by whatever new shiny comes along…

    the only thing i have a problem with is the slow ssd speeds, 8gb of ram, & 60hz on the base model. for $1,200 you can build a pretty serious gaming pc or buy a high-end laptop. there’s no excuse for a $1,200 laptop to be poorly optimized, have minimal specs (apart from the chip), and still have a 60hz display. I can get over it w my iphone 14 plus bc I don’t need 120hz on my phone, but that’s unacceptable on a computer
    edit: I did still buy it though. it was time to upgrade from my mid-2013 air

      120hz display on a laptop is not a requirement. No one is gaming on a MBA, and the OS scrolling or Safari scrolling is not going to be all that noticeable, especially if you consider that 120hz uses significantly more power than a 60hz refresh rate.
