M2 base model enough for adobe software?
Like photoshop, illustrator, indesign, premiere, audition, etc…
Photoshop got picture editing around few hundred picture,
Illustrator for designing/editing which sometime involve complex effect.
Indesign variable date around 20k data, authoring book.


Also the screen crack solve?

I'm on a X250, Windows 11 not even supported  tongue.gif

also looking at this latest MBA, but after spec-ing it with 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD (RM8.3k) ...  wondering if I should just get the 14" MBP @ RM8.8k but 512GB SSD ?
*
If I, will only can get base model...256gb, 8 gb ram....
QUOTE(davidletterboyz @ Jun 8 2022, 04:45 PM)
Not a lot faster than Air M1 actually. Add another ~RM1k you are into Pro 14 territory which still has a faster CPU, a lot faster GPU, a nicer screen and speakers.
*
M1 need sacrifice 1 usbc for charging,
M2 gor dedicate charging port ....
Hard to choose...

Don't forget abt the 1080p camera. It has been complaints about the 720p camera on the M1 MBA, and now the M2 MBP also using the same old camera.
*
I not using the camera...
Even my current thinkpad also close the camera....
