it's only 3 years since M1 MBA launch, but it's slow like an ancient 20 years laptop.

I have updated to the latest Mac Sonoma 14.3, same problem.

Even my Intel Hackintosh PC perform much better than this M1 MBA shit.

I thought it's my problem, found out other users also experience the same problem.

2024 who still use fruit....

8GB RAM?

Walao macha…

Terima kasih pencerahan

Anneh thought all apple product godlike…

This mekbook air baru saja 3 tahun sudah yini machem kaa…

Brb wanna shit on my fren wassap who own one 😏😏

you're holding it wrong, apple never wrong one

/s

Good luck with the 8GB ram.

Apple: Your battery is slowpoke, and we intentionally throttle your M1 to protect you.

Planned obsolete. kek

Punde apple…

Mana mungkin

3 years wonly how can planned obsolete

8GB RAM?

Very likely a worn out SSD. Better start backing up all your data. Otherwise, if the SSD dies, there is no way to recover anything.

was contemplating used m1 macbooks, maybe will look elsewhere then.

worn out ssd la tew.

but but apple only use grade a ssd makes exclusive for apple, they said.

why so poorfag?

get M3 Pro at least

I open Safari with NO other tab, Spotify, VLC and a Torrent app only...

like that also cannot handle, fuckk off Apple..

As planned... Time to upgrade to M3

sei sohai can go die die far away....

Custom Desktop.
4 years still stonk.

Epal where got lag. This is all agenda!

Try to download drivedx app to see your ssd health.
If SSD is healthy then must be something else on the logic board that failed.

Better send to a reputable Apple repairer for checking and probably repair.

Kesian

Pay 4k for 8gb ram and 256gb storage

At least you look cool when doing work at setaqbucks

Change OS/brand, Lenovo?

Mine is 2012 MBP running on Sonoma using OpenCore Legacy Patcher. Ok only. Smooth too. Then again, I have 16GB RAM installed.

i'm using m1 too , but no this issue

I paid 4.4k to be exact..

yes, I only use it when at Starbucks, most of the time collecting dust at home.

hehehe.....

I m fine if u r a liar...

I m trying to be honest here...

8gb ram is it? LMAO of course la will become slow eventually.

My MacBook 16gb ram…8 years already. Still performing like day 1 lol

xiaojohn

not macbook. but m1 mini basic running strong

this MBA is just a netbook to me....

I don't store any important data on it.

Same.

my M1 MBA still ok lehh..

then why Apple still releasing NEW M3 MacBook with 8GB RAM???

surely 8GB RAM is enough for netbook usage....but HELLLLL NO!!!

ALLL U M1 USERS ARE LIARS!!!!!!

Trust me, I m the only one NOT protecting this useless Apple product.]

A shit product is a shit product...

just revert back to Ventura..
Dont simply update the OS.. Let others be the white mice.

Apple never lags. U r the one lagging.

8GB mana enough la? Optimized or not, still the same nonsense. The fucking OS itself needed 2GB to run properly! After that got swap and other system related requirements. User apps only left 3GB shared with all the apps. Mana enough la? When not enough, the OS will use the SSD as RAM. GG SSD later.

cannot be. mekbuk is the best

- some ktard

Nice get the laptop from me.
i kena surface laptop go 3 from my company lucky draw but i m not interested. if anyone interested to buy can pm me with your price... 256gb 16gb ram icy blue.

It is definitely because of insufficient of memory, it happens to me too, but my friend 16gb MBA M1 is smoother.

Will ask my sis-in-law when i see her during CNY. she's using m1 macbook air with 8GB ram also. laptop was fine last year when i saw her last.

Kan ada M3 MacBook, Apple want your money cause you in their ecosystem no choice already it’s the only way.

Appple dogshit fans doesnt understand the reality they are being sold cheap shit at extreme high price

Just doing basic stuff also not enough ram.

Looks like the latest OS eat a lot of ram.

serious question, MBA M2 8GB/256GB can handle 8K30 HEVC video encoding?
saw youtube, MBA M2 weaker than MM M2

8gb kennot, will lag until u will throw away
ayam have experience try to edit 8k video on base m1 b4

what's macosx idle ram usage?

with the most basic service running

thank you for your answer.
so cancel taking mba m2 from maxis.

cannot update one, must use old os

What you use it for
I been using for school never lag before

My normal M1 16GB from 2020 still works great. I use it for mobile app dev, have Chrome 50 tabs, two IDEs and Zoom call screen share going at same time no issue also.

...
my 12 years old beat up thinkpepet also 16gb ram.

My M1 8GB MBA ok je..

Probably a YOU problem

got plugin external storage? my m2 mac mini have issue updating new firmware all the time . slow boot.. slow update like stuck for 6-8 hrs. bring to switch say ok. boot fine. sometimes finder hang.. then another update come, same issue. stuck at apple logo. bring back switch again say no boot issue. bring back prblem again. then kinda suspect my extenal ssd issue.. format it and no issue since. yesterday new update also no issue updating..

User face problem

Since when M1 is a performance laptop

It's for show off only

???

it will use swap memory anyway

U buy for apple logo only not for laptop performance

beware any used 8GB Macbook

you cannot upgrade RAM.

if laptop slow, it's usually RAM or SSD
i usually buy high ram ,high storage laptop but using older gen intel chip

if wan edit min need 16gb, 8gb kennot cut it anymore. normal browsing ok

Looks like solder in SSD is dying..

Uncle m1 macbook air no problem…how slow your unit? Show in video see see

You think too much…there is annual report you can always refer to about their cost of goods

This post has been edited by xiaojohn: Jan 24 2024, 07:44 PM

Ts cari pasal only

How uncle can expect honest from you?

can install huawei OS on top of it?

More than enough unless you do video editing

Don’t bullshit here as you have nothing to say should just keep quiet or read a book

Ts know bullshit only…just discount his input

Quite performanace if you are comparing the intel macbook air

Every product today has planned obsolescence built into it during the design stage.
Exactly like how much medicine to prescribe to cure a problem.
But here, it is how much time to prescribe to cause a problem.

You should feel luckily to have all these

my M1 MacBook Air still smooth like butter..

normal browsing, i have other device.
thinking of mba m2 from maxis just for 8K30 video editing.
maybe stick with my ryzen + 64gb ram for now.

8GB definitely not enough
16GB with just vivaldi open
min 32GB lah, ram is cheap

If you did not notice the similarities is that,

- A Virologist discovers/ engineers diseases.
- Pharmaceuticals make money out of diseases.
- An engineer/ product designer designs/ finds faults or stress of a product.
- Manufacturers makes money out of obsolescence.

Meanwhile

God : "I created humans to be able to live for 100 years old. But somehow they managed to make themselves live for only 70 years old. The craziest thing is, they refuse to believe they did that to themselves. But they would rather believe that i exist only as an entity to pray for a longer life."

No lah, macOS and iOS manage RAM differently….you cannot judge it like that

Can you use human language? Uncle don’t understand what you trying to say….

jangan tipu my mekmek 4GB ram ok jer

min 16gb la , itulah cheapskate dowan upgrade now suffer

faster go dump it in carousell/fb lah, got ppl selling it at rm3K already

sana banyak isheeps sure can sell one

Actually Apple very good in managing the RAM, i designed this house using just that old ancient MBA 11" with just 4GB RAM

Using mbp with m1 pro. it's been solid, even on sonoma, what are you on about? its gazillion times better than windoze. would never go windows ever again

Con9lan7firm user prob. 8gb ram for normal usage is definitely enough, even for windows.

Apple no lag one. Time is moving faster in 2024 compared to few years ago only. Not Apple problem. Apple design is always perfect.

Huh? My 4 year Dell gaming laptop still going strong. Can play guardians of galaxy, genshin, elden ring etc smooth as fuck

ummm guy, mac / iphone ram is different from window / android ram, i am using iphone 13mini and work fine until today

3k can buy new think pad.

My 64GB m1 max still snappy like day 1

wei, even phones now have 8GB RAM la

what laptop can run with 8GB RAM la



I have docker, visual code, terminal, edge, chrome, teams, office running at same time, but still no lag, smooth smooth

upgrade to 16GB la at least.... but more is better

Apple premium product, tabuli ini machiam

Mesti sarahan user

8gb ram gggggg
