I got one a few months ago to learn how to code. I love it, I have a portable Asus screen which it powers through thunderbolt cable with HDMI. Can go like 6-8 hours on a full charge with dual screens.

Thereβs got to be better deals than this for 750+ dollars
Itβs looking great enjoy it mate :) Iβm also on the market for either 16g M1 air or 16g M1 pro there is only 70$ difference where I live but I canβt decide π Btw I still use the 1st gen X1 Carbon so itβs definitely gonna be hell of a upgrade π
Trust me , I know it all to well!
From an x1 gen 5 to an m1 air is a huge jump
Is this one good enough for a laptop? I alr have a powerful Pc and want something quiet and fast. Also is the 13 inch version too small?
I think itβs great, but everyone needs are different.
Is battery life good? Btw is the 60Hz display too noticeable? I've been using high refresh rate displays for like a decade now and I'm a bit concerned about that one
I feel like for 60Hz itβs amazing. Also battery life is great
Great little machine. I have one myself. Enjoy!
Why doesnβt it say MacBook Air at the bottom of the screen?
What did you spill on it?
Thatβs cool! I hope you enjoy it.
π
Have fun with it!
Send it back and get your money back before its too late!
Please tell me you bought it on sale
No, I spent like $700 on it
Enjoy
Use swish not anything else like magnet or rectangle
Maccy for clipboard
Flux for sunset yellow display
amphetamine (replacement of coffee)
why u dont have the βmacbook airβ at the bottom of the screen! i want that version tbh
This was my first MacBook/macOS device, got it in April 2021, still works perfectly and is in use almost daily. Best laptop I've ever owned honestly. Hopefully will be usable for several more years, maybe even many more.
What's ur battery health and charge cycles at?
Do I find this in battery settings? Either way I'll check when I'm able to. !remind me 2 hours
Open spotlight search and type system report, Then under battery or power(forgot exact name) you will see your health and charge cycles.
Or best way is to install coconut battery from google, it shows detailed stuff about your battery.
91% with 188 cycles. I usually use it daily, but not usually many hours. And I use it on battery until it needs charging. It's usually my "light tasks" machine, like browsing the web, and do online shopping lol. And the occasional gaming and video editing, but I usually use my gaming PC and consoles for that, mac is just a backup there, and it's nice when i wanna sit back with some hearthstone (probably my most played game on the mac in particular).

Just bought my mom an m1 air too last month
it is still very powerful if your last one was an Intel Mac, like insanely faster, quieter, cooler and last all day without plugging in ;)
Im going to touch you
Enjoy it, had mine for 3 years with 16gb of ram itβs still working fine.
I got mine in space grey with 8GB RAM and 256gb ssd
Did you buy new or re-newed? I bought M1 MacBook Air with the 8 Core GPU Chip, 16GB Ram and 512GB SSD for $809.79 from the Amazon Refurb Program in "Excellent" condition back in June. It came in essentially brand. No scratch, ding or sign of wear. It was at 86% battery health but I keep my plugged in 95% of the time anyway.
New.
Enjoy!!! BTW Nice Color ππ½ππ½ππ½
Why you crying bro? Itβs a great computer. Iβd say it will last another 4 years easy.
Why are you sad?
congrats! great little medium end machine that'll do more than many think. there's always an upgrade so don't worry about it if anyone says you should have got the pro or whatever. this thing will rock for many years
This color
Great machine, I own one aswell. Enjoy!
Do you like it?
Love β¦ it feels so smooth
Congratz! Enjoy it to the fullest!
Enjoy your new machine ! Despite that some may say like "M2 is better, better to take Pro model", don't listen, this is now your Mac and I know how is it to start having doubts about new purchase (happed to me as I got myself basic M3 MBP with 8 gb of ram). So be sure that YOU are the one who likes this laptop, not anyone else. Again, enjoy your new Mac !
good for you ππ»π
Congrats! I was super happy making the switch over. I love my M1 MBA. Now using a M2 Air with 16gb RAM and couldn't be more content.
The Dolby Atmos is amazing, one of major upgrade was the sound on these machines
Speakers are amazing β€οΈ
Got one 2 weeks ago. Changed my life coming from a 720p screen, 7th gen intel i7 and slow ssd. And it's still faster than a beefy computer that my work gave me. I use it instead of that for computational work, didnt have a hiccup till now
