We bought ours in Dec. at Costco for $750. And at this time (2-9-24) it's again available at Amazon, Best Buy and other sellers for the same low price. A great choice for typical users.

LOL. I have the 2020 16GB RAM/512GB SSD i7 Macbook Air and it is still awesome. Other than the loud fan and the terrible battery it is still pretty beast to me. Just imagine the M1. M1 is pretty darn leaps ahead. Definitely more than enough for many people.

I know a girl who bought the $999 core i3 MacBook Air 2020 in like July. I said wait or spend more on a core i5 and she didn’t listen. It’s almost mean apple released that lol.. I wonder what happened to the unsold stock when the M1 air came out for same price 😮

I specced a 2020 MacBook air M1 when it first came out, 8 core GPU, 16GB Ram, 1TB SSD. I still use mine today and it’s been fantastic. The best MacBook I have purchased. Whether using it mobile and hooked up to a 34 inch ultra wide monitor. I love its completely silent.

Just picked up the base model! Not a video editor but I do music stuff and lots of virtual tabletop gaming and such. Doesn’t even tough it. Even the 8gb. Also, I got it fair condition renewed from Amazon for $515. Showed up in like new condition.

Based on what i've seen, I'm more confident the m2 macbook air will get an extra year or two of macos updates. If you have the money I would try to get an m2 macbook air.

Or should I be buying a windows alternative in the same budget such as Dell G15, with a RTX 3050 or HP Victus? Please help! I have just graduated college, and want to spend wisely!

Thank you! Actually I have already ordered M1 MacBook Air 7 days ago, and as they have launched M3 Macbook Air today, M1 has gotten cheaper, and probably I will be getting the refund of the price difference (of around 121 dollars). Please help, if I should cancel my order of Macbook Air M1, and order M2 with 256 GB and 16 GB RAM? The price difference is 121 dollars! I have just graduated and want to spend wisely! My main reason for buying a macbook is performance and video editing, I want to know if its really slower than the Macbook Air M1 as many people claim!

I’m 13 and my school does a lot of stuff online do you recommend me getting the m2 because it might last longer and work better once I really need it ,or should I get the cheapest and buy a new one in the future
@TerrysTechTips

That's a good question. Typically apple keeps MacBooks generally the same in terms of design and features for a few years. Just because the M2 isn't that much more; that is if you get the base 256gb of storage, I would recommend that. You should be able to get back that extra cost in a few years when you go to sell it.

Hey there. The MacBook m1 with 16 gig of ram and 512 ssd is still plenty good in 2024. Most of you all don’t do a lot of heavy work on your computers so this model is a really good choice. Keep in mind, most of the time, probably 90%, your computer is waiting on you to do something. The few times you really tax your processor with exporting a video or doing code compilation or calculating an extremely large spreadsheet (super rare), it will do fantastic. The screen is still fantastic btw. I have a MacBook M1 Pro 13 and 14 at home and they still hold up really well. Get a new one at costco or at apple refurbished. You’ll be happy with your purchase. BTW, latest M3 is only 25% faster on a single core basis than the M1. Multi core tests results are misleading because they are running all cores flat out. Most work is done on a few cores so M1 is still great.

8 Gb of ram is not enough for me and my astrophysics codes and I refuse to pay $200 for a 8 Gb ram upgrade so I am still using a 7 year old laptop for generic work and I built a PC desktop for $850 with an i5 12600kf, RTX 3060, 32Gb of DDR5 6000 MHz ram and a AIO cooler. I dual booted it with ubuntu and windows. Use ubuntu for coding and windows for gaming.

Processing power wise and longevity wise Yes!. However I think the 8gb of ram could be limiting. I would try to see if you can find one used with 16gb of ram just so things stay smooth. If you need to buy new, then buy the base m2 macbook air and just upgrade the ram on apple's order page to 16gb.

Hi thanks for this video. I want to ask you if it's the perfect decision to get Macbook air m1 13inch(2020) with ram8gb, ssd256gb. I'm business major univ student and this is my first macbook(I use iphone, apple watch, ipad pro), and i'll use this labtop for some Adobe programs(photoshop, illustrator) and sometimes for Finalcut(or other video programs) to make my vlog videos(1080p). Especially it's tough to make a decision between ram8/16 and m1/m2.. if you don't mind, i want your advice.

Totally. The m1 MacBook Air with 8Gb of ram and 256gb of storage should be enough. You should be fine with 8Gb of ram, but if you go over it you can use swap ram which is no big deal. The 256gb of storage should be enough, but at some point after you made a lot a videos and downloaded a lot of applications you might need to put some files on an external hard drive to free up space. I’m also a business major too :)
