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.

2399 from lazada or shopee? thinking to get this model on next month

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.

Joined the MacBook family bought a 4 year old 96% battery M1 16/256 @ 1.7k.

Was contemplating between used M1 16/256 <2k. New M1 8/256 2.35k. New M3 16/256 at about 3.5k / 4k. New M4 16/256 at 4.06k with education.

Waited and waited but M4 is so slow and the market price for all M1 and M3 didn’t move at all. Most in market used is also 8gb only with ridiculous pricing. New m2 / m3 with 16gb also more expensive than the upcoming m4.

No regrets with my M1 16/256. So snappy and good battery life.

So nice finally get to tie all my products together with MacBook Air M1.

iPhone mirror on Mac. iPhone notification on Mac
Keyboard and trackpad controlling iPad.
Can extend display to iPad
Can extend display to Apple TV.

So fun and trying to build my workflow with my first MacBook.

Out of sudden, my rear port cannot detect power. Thus it wont charge. Luckily macbook Air M1 USB port were not part of the logic board and can be easily replaced.
