If you can get it new for RM3000 or less, I think it's worth it. I'm still using mine from 2021.

Just got one for my neighbour a few days ago.

Any of u guys ever replaced the battery?

3 years, now battery at 90%
But I noticed that leaving the laptop on sleep, still drains the battery like crazy... more than 50% after 12-16 hrs...
That's not normal, right?
Used to be able to charge the laptop 2-3 days in not in use..

I also got 256GB because Apple's SSD options are so damn expensive. Then added external Thunderbolt 2TB NVME SSD.

It is 2024, I bought my MBA M1 in 2022 right after M2 was launched and the reviews disclosed SSD gate.

I am still super happy with it - feels as fast as day 1. I think it is the best bargain ever.

And lucky me, I got the rose gold one which is now pretty uncommon as it is discontinued.

RM2399.. super bargain.

The base model is a bargain. But don’t compare lah, MBA portable, no need carry screen around hahaha.

I just got a.MBP 16 M3 Pro for work. As long as you don’t open too many browser tabs, MBA M1 is just as fast. When you go 20+ browser tabs can see MBP 16 M3 winning.

And I am still perfectly happy with the MBA M1, because it’s so light! Around the house I grab my MBA and not the MBP. Likewise going out for meetings its the MBA. The MBP is like the desktop.
