I’m in love with my M2 air, it’s the best Mac I’ve ever owned by far. Im gonna have this thing for a long long time. I even throw some light blender and Logic and it performs like a champ. 16gb of ram is a must though, 8gb is a joke even for light users in 2023.
I personally find the 13” to be the perfect size, but I know so many who want a bigger screen and don’t need more than an air. This is going to be a huge hit. M1, M2, M3 doesn’t really matter for this product all of them are overkill for the target audience, to those it matters will be getting a pro anyway.
Edit: more rambling lol
I had a 15” 2016 Pro before this, and between the size and the awful keyboard I ended up selling it after a year and went back to my trusty 13” 2013 Pro. This M2 feels like a perfect evolution of the 2013 model I loved so dearly, and that’s probably one of the reasons I like it so much. My only complaint really is even just a single usb-c port on the right would have made a big difference, but not a deal breaker. I’ve had plenty of other models for work in my time, using a 14” pro right now and I love it but it’s overkill for what I do with it and it’s quite heavy and big. I’m particularly impressed with the M2 airs display, it’s surprisingly close to my 14” in black levels and colors even though it’s not miniLED, but I do miss promotion. And I love how dim it gets at night! I’ll probably upgrade when they have an OLED Air, but like gen 3 or so with all the issues ironed out.
