I’m just curious if it’s because there was a particular app or a workflow that motivated you to get a MacBook? Or just the Apple ecosystem?

Genuinely just curious.

I’m from India btw, and a decent windows laptop would cost 60k-75k for basic needs like multimedia, web browsing and office stuff. Even such a laptop shows it’s true face after 2 years in the battery and hinge front.

This is where MacBook comes into picture where the longevity plays a part. The benefits you get for what you pay is mutlifolds, especially after the introduction of apple silicon. Again it all leads to use case as the primary factor which made me a seamless transition to a MacBook. (Bought MBAM1 for 60k during sale) And also iPhone mac integration is a cherry on top and makes thing even sweeter
