QUOTE(williamlee_1985 @ May 4 2021, 09:18 PM) Depends whether you are urgent or not. If still can wait then wait, I think another few more months will launch, then by Oct or Nov will reach to Malaysia. If yes, it will be new Macbook Pro 16β and iMac 30β perhaps. It is mean for pro users. The price will not be cheap. Check the current MBP already can estimate how much it will be when launch. This post has been edited by kevinpss: May 4 2021, 09:28 PM

Hey, you mentioned so many hardware upgrades but you still love your MBA 2017? Wow.. Why? I've only used iPhone and iPad many years ago coz I can't justify the price per performance. Except iPad, which has no competition until recently

If you have iPhone or other Apple products, it makes your decision easier? I'm no longer have the time to customise my phone, build own PC, troubleshooting tech devices and play 100+ hours video games. Unless I'm Henry Caville or YouTuber rich. MCO still have to work or worst case no income to pay expenses, let alone buy Apple products.

Hi everyone. Just ordered a MBA and eagerly waiting for it to arrive. I'm wondering how long will it take to arrive to my doorstep.
My configuration is the 8-core GPU version with 16GB RAM.

QUOTE(tony_mw @ Feb 17 2021, 01:06 PM) Suddenly got an email saying my laptop is ready to collect last night then I immediately collect my laptop back this morning, so far the hinge issue was gone  but I think need time to observe about it. However, the wifi issue still persist despite the technician had ran few round of test about it and I'm using my relatives home wifi now. Not sure is this linked to unifi because both of our home are using unifi too.  The pop sound on the hinge seems back lately even after they changed a new lid to me back in Feb. Anyone had this similar issue recently?

Iβve a 256gb iPhone
Since I do backup every few months, is the 256 ssd package sufficient or should I get 512? I donβt do gaming or editors on laptop, just casual browsing and entertainment
