I thought they mention that it doesnt need fans... then mbp comes with a fan. Dont know if it will be the same story as previous gen MBA. Poor thermal performance despite having the new 10th gen intel compared to MBP.

Its oxidization from the sweats on ur palm to the aluminium.
I learned it from my first MBA, hence been putting on palm protective stickers since Day-1.

Perhaps u can try cleaning with alcohol swabs first, it could be dirts only.

Nah just asking, i havent decided to get space grey or silver, i prefer space grey, just worry about the discoloration. I had a mbp 13 space grey in 2017 but sold it off in a year. Still looks good

Hi Guys! Need your opinion. Getting a secondary laptop. 120+ batt cycle, 99% batt health. No warranty for RM3300. Is this deal ok ? Base model 256gb.

Go ahead, its a steal.
120+ cycle shows a healthy battery usage.

Alright.. just thought that 120 charge is quite alot since the battery lasts a while.

tbh i feel this to be fishy/odd

too many coincidences

Probably the least wanted color therefore excess stocks compared to the more popular space grey and then silver. Nothing fishy...
