    Q: How does the m2 perform for entry photo and video editing compared to m3? should I just get the m3 or will this do just fine?

    A: This one is perfect for that. I have a small business as a photographer I’ve edited images for baby photo shoot’s and a litter of puppies! I edited all images on my MacBook and have no issues the m2 chip has done just fine for me. I also do video editing for one of my college courses on here and don’t have any problems

    Q: Can I purchase with Microsoft Office included?

    A: No, Microsoft Office is purchased additionally. I paid $70 for the software at BesyBuy and you get a year ling membership.

    Q: I currently pay for Microsoft 365 that i have on my Dell laptop. Can that be transferred to a new Mac Air?

    A: Yes, you can transfer your Microsoft 365 subscription to your Mac. Just sign into Office.com with your Microsoft account, download Office, and install it. If you have a one-time purchase version (like Office 2021), you might need to deactivate it on your old computer first before installing it on your Mac.

    A: sim com certeza, por ser um produto super atual ele tem suporte para mais uns 4 anos de atualização

    Q: Does it have guarantee? For how long? How does it work?

    A: I think you mean warranty. Usually when purchasing new (not refurbished or pre owned), you will get 1 year limited warranty from Apple. this applies in USA, maybe different in other countries. You can also purchase extended warranty or Applecare through Apple or some resellers.

It’s great for video calls and media consumption. The 1080p webcam is a much-needed improvement, providing clear and sharp video for meetings and calls. **Value for Money:** Given its performance, design, and features, I believe the MacBook Air M2 offers excellent value for money. It’s a perfect balance of power and portability, ideal for both students and professionals. **Conclusion:** Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my MacBook Air M2.
