Why? I love OLED but Mini LED is so much brighter. I rather have the brighter screen IMHO. I actually had an ASUS Zennbook 14 with an old screen and loved it but it didn't get bright enough. At home even I had it around 90% brightness while my M3 Pro MBP I have around 60%
I have a slimebook M2 with 16 gigs of ram and 1tb of storage, its genuinely fantastic. I use it for music production and video editing with Logic and Final Cut, Works perfectly and have never had an issue runs both programs like a dream even with multiple streams of 4k footage in final cut
I have it for over 5+ months now close to a year and it’s an absolute beast! I only maxed out the RAM to 24gb ram with 256gb SSD cause i don’t really see a difference with the speeds and I always don’t mind the waiting on the downloads anyway since I’m doing something else to keep me busy. Overall, I’m very satisfied with it! Use multiple tabs, have photoshop open while watching a stream or UA-cam, pretty much have multiple applications open and the 24gb ram REALLY helps to not wear out the SSD swap or MacBook itself, absolute powerful machine!
@@ayyan_khan001 to me 8gb it’s just way too small, especially if you’re a huge multitasker you definitely go 16gb or even higher , that’s why I got 24gb ram for that extra room of RAM and multitasking through apps smoothly
@@Obikenobi93HD I need only for professional cooding and also future proof so what will be a better option m2 16gigs or m3 8gigs which is better future proof
I had the 15" M2 for ten days but had to exchange it for the 14" M3 Pro. Xcode would stop responding from light task. I did a factory reset and issue persist. I exchanged it for the 14" M3 Pro because it was on sale at Best Buy for $1749. Otherwise, I would have just told Best Buy my 15" is a defect and needs to be replaced. I really do miss the 15" screen size but for $1749 on a brand new 14" M3 Pro, I could not pass up on that offer.
I’m still using the base M1 MacBook Air. It’s a great little computer.. I really like it. Screen, speakers and build quality are nicer than anything I’ve had before it. I just stream video.. UA-cam and Apple TV and Apple Music. I’d have gotten a 14” M1 Pro if I was managing a UA-cam channel with it. That extra ram and GPU cores go a long way.
If you mainly keep it inside and not all banged up, it’s going to be one of their longest supported MacBooks I bet. You may breach the ten year mark. You bought well.
I’m starting school in a couple weeks and I found myself needing a computer for school so here I am seeing if this is the computer for me after I found a good deal on one for 650 on eBay
I had the M2 MacBook Air and I loved it but I had the base model with 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSD. I wanted 16GB of RAM and 512GB SSD. By that point I got to the M3 Base MBP, that is priced at $1,679. And than I am close to the M3 Pro Base model at $1,849. I liked the Mini LED screen so worth the cost IMHO.
I am considering to swap the other way around from M2 Air to M3 Pro. I'm not sure, because I actually like the small factor of M2 Air. How about M3 Air?
I have the m2 AIR which still does incredibly for all my 4k editing for UA-cam. I believe the M3 is ~20% more powerful which is awesome. I personally returned my m3 pro for the air, I just prefer smaller tech all around.
I like it! I went from a 16" M1 Max to a 14" M3 Pro and a 12.9 M1 iPad Pro to a 11" M2 iPad Pro. I've never looked back and have no regrets. It's all about what works best for use needs and lifestyle!
If you didn't have a gaming setup, I would have recommended you hold off until the M3 Air gets released next month (March 2024). Since you already have a gaming setup, the M2 Air is all you need based on your workflow. The M3 Air won't make a substantial difference.
Cool video, for me that I never edit a video I'll be ok with the 15 air 16/512, perfect for portability and functionality, and even if I want to edit a video or heavier tasks it is going to respond.

I am just starting out my content creation journey and going to go all into Video Editing! I have a budget of Macbook air M1 with 16 GB of RAM. Should I go for it in 2024, is it still worth it? Or should I increase my budget and purchase an M2 Macbook air. Actually I have already ordered M1 MacBook Air 7 days ago, and as they have launched M3 Macbook Air today, M1 has gotten cheaper, and probably I will be getting the refund of the price difference. Please help, if I should cancel my order of Macbook Air M1, and order M2? The price difference is 121 dollars! I have just graduated and want to spend wisely! I am basically wanting to purchase an Air macbook for video editing!
I personally think the M2 might be the way to go. It’s personally what I still use for my channel editing and everything else. It’s also worth checking out the refurbished Apple Store. Their stuff is practically brand new.
@@MinimalisTech thank you so much for your response! Also, if you could tell me as many people claim M2 is going to be slower or won't give as much performance in comparison to M1 due to slower SSD speeds. Is that true? Especially even if I upgrade the RAM to 16 GB?
I don’t really need a super duper powerful laptop like I’m mining bitcoin. I have the MBA 15” with 16GB memory and 512GB SSD. It’s a fantastic device. Good enough for my work in research field. Sometimes it felt too good. But I’m not complaining. 😊
