Game changer
The MacBook Air, honestly, is a game-changer. It’s super lightweight—feels like carrying a notebook. The M2 chip is fast and apps load in a seconds, and multitasking is a perfect feature. Plus, the battery life is amazing! I’ve gone hours working on projects without even thinking about charging even no worries of carrying a charger during travel. The downside is limited ports—wish there were more options without an adapter. Overall, this does not have much impact and easily ignored, loving it so far.
