No, I wouldn't, but it has nothing to do with the M1 or M2 chip.
I do not like the white keys and the white bezels, so much so I wouldn't buy it even if it came with an M2 chip.
Next point. I'm not a tech geek and there are others on this forum who will be able to speak more the point I'm about to make.
With the Macbook Air being fanless, there is only so much power it may have and still have the passive cooling be able to work.
Yes, the chip technology will keep improving, but if they want to keep the MBA fanless, they will have to figure out how to handle faster and more powerful chips while still keeping the MBA fanless.
I'm not saying they can't or won't, but a fanless MBA can only handle so much power and only be so productive.
If they put a much more powerful chip into the MBA, at some point they'd have to add fans to it, like in the Macbook Pro.
And, for now at least, the M1 chip is still a fantastic chip. It's not like competitors are running circles around it, at all.
Orange has been my favorite color for decades and decades and I'd love to get a new MBA in the orange color.
But, I will not buy a laptop with white keys and a white bezel, even if it's orange, even if it has an M2 chip and on and on.
To me, the white keys and bezels are a deal breaker, period.
To me, they look cheap.
