I'm an engineering student in my final year and owner of one of these bad boys. Almost all the software that I use has been optimized for Silicon chips and if it isn't, Parallels does the job. I run FEA analysis on Parallels and it's faster than the Windows laptops of other people in my course. The M1 is still a beast and I barely need to bring a charger to campus! Edit: it is the base model (8 Gb of RAM, 256 Gb of SSD)

My wife has a M1 MacBook Air. But I ordered it with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD. It has been a solid work computer for her for over two years. I don’t think the current $699 model is intended for a work environment, but would be perfect for the average home user. Hopefully people will see them at Walmart and choose them over a PC laptop, and join the Apple family.

For what I do today the m1 loads apps and processes virtually instantly. I don’t think I could recognize anything faster than instant. 🤷

Great video. I'm watching this on a 2015 MacBook Air, running Monterey. It's not zippy, but it plays UKposts videos just as well as anything else. I don't get this "the M1 is good enough for web browsing" thing. It's good enough to edit 4K video in Final Cut Pro or to manage a Logic Pro session with 80 tracks... both of which I've done on my M1 Mac Mini with 8 GB RAM. I totally agree that you should get an M3 if you have the money, but anyone buying an M1 should not feel like you're getting something that can just browse the web.

As a primary work computer: it depends what you do. I have one for when I need a laptop and it's great, but I have an M2 Studio next to it and 2 full sized PCs with 64GB RAM, and various RTX cards for both playing and running LLMs. I also worked on it for a month while traveling and it is a nice little machine. I code, run admin tasks and work on databases. Hey, it can even run some light LLM models when I need it. 50 tabs? Giant sheets? Games. No. As a good *NIX based on-the-go machine: perfect for me.

I love my M1MBA. I love the wedge. I maxed it out w/1 TB drive & 16 MB memory. I only wish it had 1 more port.
@kitsoseopela7503 9 днів тому
I bought a MacBook Air M1 a couple months after it released. 8GB RAM 256GB Storage. After years of owning it, I love how it helps for my studies and work when it comes to productivity. It’s bottom of the range but it still surprisingly pushes.
@dougmacmillan1712 2 дні тому
Thanks, this was very helpful. My wife has a laptop issued by her employer. She's about to retire and will have to turn it in. We're leaning hard toward the M1 based on her needs. You did a great job explaining the differences between the M1, M2 and M3. The one thing I think she should consider, though, is the longevity factor. The M3 would better future proof her and she can now get an educator's discount from Apple, but it is not that much.

Just a point of order on history: Wal-Mart has actually sold Macs before but it was a long time ago. When the Performa line first launched models like the Performa 200 and 400 were available to purchase in Wal-Mart stores.
@billherman5161 17 днів тому
I love the wedge design of the MBA m1. The design of the m2 and m3 simply bring back the design of 20 yr old Mac’s I used in a former life.

If the M1 can get you five years of use, amortized (meaning you divide the cost over five years) isn’t that bad of a deal in terms of Total cost of ownership. Bonus, take the cost of the M3 and amortize it over ten years to see which one is more economical. Ps, “economical” is not to imply more value. “Value” depends on what problem the device solves for you now and overtime.

I just ordered the M1 from Walmart. I just need it to port my mobile games that I make to iOS. If I love it I’ll get the M3 eventually.
@guaiqueritech Місяць тому
In a vacuum, $699 is a great price for the M1… until you factor in the refurbished M2. By all accounts, Apple refurbished gear is as good as the new stuff, so saving up the ~$150 difference to get the M2 should be worth it, considering it is 2 years newer
@mikes7070 26 днів тому
Anything is worth it if it fits your needs. My MacBook is pre M1 and does what I need.

I got mine price matched to Costco's price of $649 and couldn't be happier. Is it the most powerful MacBook in the world? No. But for the money I can't really complain. This will easily get me through school and is a way better value than buying a used MacBook for around the same price if not more.
@ronaldjosejr5756 Місяць тому
In my opinion, the M1 Powered Macs are good enough for the average user. So, if you're searching for a budget-friendly MacBook, I'd suggest you go for it.

@skyscraperfan Місяць тому
Even if prices were switched, I would prefer the M1 model. Not having a notch is worth $400 extra.

Well if only sold in Walmart I will not be purchasing the Apple M1 MacBook Air at this location. My hope was that Apple was going to drop older SOC's in the the M1 MacBook Air design and keep it around as the entry model.
@AppleInsider Місяць тому
Yeah, they wanted the M2 for that, but really interesting to see Appel approach this from multiple angles! Why leave that market untapped? People go to walmart for a cheap computer, now they can buy a Mac!

Would you say the M1 Air is a better buy than a refurb 2022 M2 Air for $825? Thx!
@AppleInsider Місяць тому
You're really splitting hairs. Personally, if the price was $700 or $825, I'd go for the M2. I like the design better, the screen is slightly bigger, and you have a faster processor. but I'm also one to drop $4K on a 16" MBP.

The M1 MacBook Air is a masterpiece. Great for audio, video, photo editing and even gaming. As an audio/video professional, On my previous Non-Retina Intel based MacBook Air, I've worked on several audio projects with 65+ audio tracks. I've edited, exported and uploaded several videos to UKposts and for other clients. The M1 MacBook Air is a massive improvement to that machine. The design of the M1 MacBook Air is beautiful and modern and so is the design of M3 MacBook Air. I am not partial to either design, however the re-introduction of MagSafe is welcomed. All machines based on Apple Silicon are powerful and fully capable machines, regardless of one's profession. To put it simply, there is no weak Apple Silicon based machine available. Apple has done a fantastic job with the introduction of Apple Silicon based Macs. One thing that I do look forward to in the future is the re-introduction of the glowing Apple logo in the MacBook lineup.

@brachiator1 Місяць тому
The base model M1 MacBook Air is a great value for high school and college students, and for many small business and general users who may browse the Web, use various apps and do Zoom calls. It is also a good laptop for basic video editing. The M1 Air outperforms Chromebooks and many Windows laptops in the same price range. The M1 Air may get fewer years of updates than the M3 Air, but in four years, consumers will probably be able to buy an equivalent Apple laptop at a budget price.
