YesOf course any laptop he buys may be faulty. The only move is not to play.

HEY! what?Joined today, and posting about non-specific issue without providing further details. Hmm...
HEY! CAN YOU POLITELY TO ME PLEASE!He’s a newbie just trying to get attention and replies the wrong way. He probably does this with all his social media. Opens an account, makes a contentious statement, and watch all the replies come in. Once people figure his MO, he opens a new account and repeats.
Yeah I'll return it tomorrow and get M1 MBA instead.I would return it and get something more suitable for your needs. You come off as an eMachines kind of guy.
I bought specsYes. Your model is faulty. Mine is lightning fast and outperforms my $4500 i9 MacBook Pro from late 2019 in all areas.
You see I keep telling people this and they don't believe me, The 2019 Macbook Pro intel line up is the one of the worst products Apple has released. I had one and was so embarrassed to have such a dud of a machine.Yes. Your model is faulty. Mine is lightning fast and outperforms my $4500 i9 MacBook Pro from late 2019 in all areas.
My 2010 Air is faster than New M2 about 10 seconds boot time.Of course. It’s either a faulty unit or a spotlight indexing is using a mega ton of resources. But if you switch it for another, of course you’d switch for another M2 Air, because a faulty model is not representative of a computer that should be insanely faster than the 2010 Air. And getting the M1 makes no sense. Getting the end of a multi year design instead of the beginning of a new design.
Yeah base storage model is bad. Sorry, I make mistake because I bought wrong model.That’s not the reason for all his woes besides maybe copy/paste. I think this guy is trolling, or foolish. Nothing about a faulty model will make it exceptionally slow. He provides extremely little information, zero evidence, just makes a claim and waits for MR to say “omg the storage!! Omg the thermal throttling!!”
YesDid you buy the base storage? That's a half speed drive.
Base storage has slower SSD due to only 1 chip, but surprisingly it is still faster than a Dell. LOLYeah base storage model is bad. Sorry, I make mistake because I bought wrong model.
My 2010 Air is faster than New M2 about 10 seconds boot time.
My records (from boot to desktop)
- 2010 Air - 23 seconds
- 2015 Air - 16 seconds
- XPS 17 - 6 seconds
- M2 Air - 1.06 mins
Dont listen to everyone else here Ben Men, personally i would go with a 2018 retina Macbook Air,
Its gonna be familiar to you, have a better screen than what you have and itll be super fast!!
Clearly the M2 MBA is not faulty but just super slow!!
Seriously, I mean who can work on such a slow and terrible machine?The SSD on the M2 MBA will always be slow as ****, even if you replace the base model over 9000 times.
The only fix is upgrading to 512 GB SSD.
No worries Ben Men, I am happy to help you find a great laptop that wont be so slow!Yeah base storage model is bad. Sorry, I make mistake because I bought wrong model.
Seriously, I mean who can work on such a slow and terrible machine?
Forget that the M2 Chip is "supposedly" faster than the M1 in almost every task thus saving people time....but that SUPER SLOW SSD would take literally seconds longer than the old M1 MacBook air...I don't know what Apple was thinking.
How is his machine faulty when every base M2 MBA has a slow ass SSD?
You guys telling him his machine is faulty is total utter non-sense. Only Apple can fix it if they release a revision with 2 NAND modules.
The base i7 16” model seems fine. The i9s were a bit crankier.You see I keep telling people this and they don't believe me, The 2019 Macbook Pro intel line up is the one of the worst products Apple has released. I had one and was so embarrassed to have such a dud of a machine.
Glad to see the newbie has a ‘friend’ to complain with.How is his machine faulty when every base M2 MBA has a slow ass SSD?

Over a minute to boot up?My 2010 Air is faster than New M2 about 10 seconds boot time.

Are you saying he will get a base M2 MBA that has a fast SSD if he exhanges it?The base i7 16” model seems fine. The i9s were a bit crankier.

Yes the facts are clear. It has a SSD which is still fast. Fast enough that people who buy the base model will never know there is any difference between the base and a larger capacity ssd.Are you saying he will get a base M2 MBA that has a fast SSD if he exhanges it?
MacRumors always makes me laugh. The facts are clear, it has been clearly documented by benchmarks how slow the SSD is.

Do you really think it takes over a minute to boot up the base Model M2 Air? Come on, that is just laughable on it's face and if you believe it or say that the base Model M2 MBA takes anywhere near that time then I know you are as real as this thread.
