I just picked up a silver base M2 MBA at BB for $1,049 on sale. I believe the sale ended last night. Anyway, I set it up, and I am using it right now. Very nice machine. Happy with the color. It's nice to be back to the traditional silver after using space grey for a few years.
Silver has definitely grown to be my favourite colour out of all of them so far. Just very clean and classy looking. Still have a soft spot for the midnight colour as its different and gives it a more modern look.
So update, after ups lost my replacement, apple put a rush order in for another one that showed up well ahead of schedule, just got here this morning. This one looks to be the keeper so far, definitely a lot smoother lip around the bottom plate, screen looks very nice as well.
Thanks! its been heck of journey to get to this point lol
Im going to keep both for a couple days just to be sure there is no quirks to this new one as the current one I had was near perfect besides that stupid lip and I was so close to just telling them not to bother sending another replacement at all lol. Trying my best not to overthink it all this time around as ive really been just enjoying this Mac for awhile now, so no matter what, one of these is a keeper lol
Sometimes you have a series of problems when buying electronics.
I have had issues with Lenovo and Samsung as well as Apple.
If it is a good company they will make it right eventually. I went through 3 Lenovos and 3 Samsung galaxy books before ended getting a good one.
Apple is usually the best at making things right but you generally have to talk to a supervisor in customer service on the phone. In the store they just dismiss you and tell you there is nothing they can do.
It is odd you would think it would be the other way around.
Yeah I wouldn’t over think it. Our minds will always find a problem. In any case I really hope this is the “one”!
Yea I have a direct line to apples senior customer care team and they have been great so far during all of this
You will have to share that number to me via a message some time if you don't mind.😉
Might come in handy some time.
Got notification last night that my 14 pro max has been shipped out and my apple shopping will be complete for a little while lol.
512gb space black model. I already have a UAG kevlar black case waiting for it as wellWhat colour ???

Oh no, wish you'd have waited for the new M2 14"s. Due to customer backlash re finger prints, rumour has it Apple will have Cosmos Carbon in their new line up. Abort, abort order!
lol, 14 pro max iPhone. Best of the best already!
Cosmos carbon does sounds fantastic though!
Lets not get the Mac Pro apologists huggers too excited though
LOL really thought 14ProMax was just a fun play following your experiences, you ordering a MBP14" M1Max now 😂.lol, 14 pro max iPhone. Best of the best already!
Cosmos carbon does sounds fantastic though!
Apple pls note: The name Cosmos Carbon™ is owned wholly by Alpha Centauri of MR (yet, but open for talks).
Definitely a keeper!I love my Silver MacBook Air.
I love when there is a good ending!
The more I use my M2 MBA the more I enjoy it. I never really thought about fans before this device. Once I had a Surface Pro with an i5 that was fanless and really enjoyed but this is a completely different experience. It feels like the power of a 13" MBP or better in a super portable yet solid design.
I am glad you stuck with it even though it felt hopeless there for a while!
Thank you 😁 Silver and Black looks awesome together 🤩. I'm happy that you've finally got everything sorted, and can now just enjoy your MBA.... and your new iPhone 😆
