You mean below the screen ? Very bad point of view, unless you need to check your nostrils.
I’ve been using the “TopNotch" app to hide the notch on my M3 MBA and my M4 MBP for quite awhile now. Never know it’s there. Give it a try.
This will likely be my next Mac, although I could also hold until an M5 MBA. I have a 16" M1 MBP that has been in the shop with major repairs (my dog pulled it off a standing desk because I wasn't using MagSafe plug. I am wondering how much longer it will last. It's still all I need, but it is heavy. Now that I have an M4 Pro Mac mini, I don't need a laptop for anything processor heavy.
The current form factor is so much better.
So many people used to 120hz+ these days. I’d take a lower quality screen in other ways to get 120hz+…
I really thought Apple would come out with a MacBook SE based on that form factor, but apparently they have been able to get the newer design down in price enough to meet the price points they were looking at.
Gurman didn't say it was this week for sure, but rather that it's "as early as this week."
In other words, he thinks it will be released some time between today and whenever its actual release date is.
Remind me again how many times Steve Jobs dropped the MacBook Air when he introduced it back in 2008 due to it being too difficult to hold. I lost count after zero.
Greatly miss the taper…wish it would come to MacBook Pro’s also. Way easier to hold and type on.
I have occasion to go back and forth between 60/120 across a couple Macs and it's crazy how the incresed refresh rate just makes everything feel so much snappier and "connected" to your input actions
It just "feels" so much better (and obviously looks smoother)
I will absolutely die on the hill that Steve would have had "ProMotion" across all devices YEARS ago now.
He was notorious for wanting the "better experience" to be deployed everwhere as soon as they could
Because it simply resulted in better products
I think now the MacBook Air has 16GB standard they’re pretty solid devices already but lots could be improved, like keyboard and display. If the price doesn’t increase in Europe and they improve either or both of those things I think I’ll get my first Mac computer 
I’m pretty sure the display will be upgraded but I don’t want to tempt fate by putting my Dell up for sale yet haha
Oh and a microSD card slot would be great but I know, I know.

That’s still considered a pro feature, I would not hold my breath.
Very true! But, I don't think he qualifies as the average user when he was on stage. Ringmaster, maybe. This was the guy who faked (fudged if you are kind) a lot of things on the stage - and in interviews - to make them look good because that was his job. Even the hold in that snap. Damn, that is pure polish.
