Anyone else do this - $200 off of a 16 GB / TB SSD Macbook Air 15 inch helps a lot, especially after trading in my M2. I also want to go to Starlight from Midnight…
Got a tip for us?

I went from midnight to silver after owning it for a few weeks and happy I went that route myself. and its up to you obviously as to how much you're willing to lose on your current m2 vs this one. Depends how important the larger screen is to you
I had the 13 M1, then the 14 MBP, and the 15 MBA for about two months now. I keep trying to talk myself into a reason to go to the M3 14 but this 15 is more than enough. It is really hard to go to back to a smaller computer.
It depends on what you need it for. I contemplated it when I purchased mine but when I run iStat I'm never at more than 30% pressure memory and the free memory is usually around 6Gb. Even in the few instances of video editing I rarely hit more than 50% pressure. It also depends on how long you plan on keeping it.

I have both sizes (the 15" is about to be shipped to a forum member) and I prefer the smaller size for work and bedroom.
Completely agree on the Starlight version. I got my daughter the Midnight version and I was completely turned off about the fingerprint issues.
