Hi
New MBA user here.
Got the laptop today.
Any suggested case/protector and USB port for the laptop?

Depends on your budget, if you can afford fancier cases then go for the likes Twelve South, UAG etc. But if you’re on the shoestring then any RM20-30 cases on Shopee or Lazada would do.

Same goes to the USB hub - Ugreen does the job as great as the rest, depends on your need whether u just want the USB, HDMI or VGA or what else.

So many forumers are actually upgrading from older generation of MBA, which are still working fine. Just curious that what did you all do to your old MBA? Anywhere in klang valley that accepts trade in?

Basically the moment M1 reviews are out, Intel MBAs hold no value. Hence ppl are upgrading. It’s a natural course.

I believe everyone has a limit of tolerance for old device regardless how old it is. And of course my use have money to buy. For some ppl, can tolerate a 20 years old car even though have budget to buy a new car. But some ppl can't tolerate and change when budget allows. However if can't tolerate and no budget then still can't do anything.

M1 could be the trigger point as apple fans Should have budget to change a new one. 😂😂😂

I bought a baseus dock that occupies both the USB-C but gives me PD. do kinda regret because the HDMI is at 30Hz. you can get Ugreen instead, cheaper.

And cloud does off sometimes, but it's rare to happen. Take a look at google last week.
Just do regularly backup will do.

256GB are always enough use for average.
Try to managing or organizing your files. Dont store hollywood movies or dramas.

One of my concerns now is that I need to monitor KLSE stock market, which required Internet Explorer so im still holding my horses.

Sigh. So it’ll arrive after Christmas. Thought Apple will do magic and deliver before. Sad.
