I purchased an Apple laptop computer MacBook Air on Good Friday 16 GB of RAM 256 GB of storage.

Let me start the review with saying that Apple makes great products - they are, however, overpriced when not on sale. I purchased this specifically to write some code and surf the web. I'm not in college, just taking online coding classes. Please note that I'm primarily a windows user for gaming. I purchased this specifically to avoid gaming on a laptop. This is to purposefully for skill development. I like to compartmentalize things... If you're going to do heavy gaming, don't even look at Mac. Build your own PC! Pros: - Battery life is fantastic. Apple knocked it out of the park on this. I sometimes leave it on sleep for days, only to find it's lost a few percentage points of battery on standby. Really quite amazing. - Interface with iPhone is seamless. Very useful to get messages or phone calls since I frequently leave my phone somewhere else to focus on my coding projects. - Well-built and sturdy. Not much more to be said there. - Apple silicon (the chip) with the integrated RAM is extremely power efficient. As said above, battery life is fantastic. - Satisfying keyboard and amazing trackpad with great feedback and useability. Trackpads on windows laptops have always sucked. This thing is basically made to never need a mouse. You can click on any spot (even corners) and it doesn't feel tough. On windows laptops you usually struggled to click/right click on the top and outer edges of the pad. Apple does extremely well with their trackpads. Cons: - Fingerprint magnet. I purchased a thin, hard-shell case to avoid getting grease prints on it. - 3rd party mouse (because they want you to buy an overpriced apple mouse) sucks on this. You have to install 3rd party software to get it to work right. Again, primarily made to be used without a mouse. - In addition to the above, a mouse just doesn't behave right when connected. Yes, I'm aware you can change settings to make it better - the point is a mouse shouldn't slingshot across the screen. I primarily use a logitech G502 hero on my gaming desktop. It just works. When you do the same with the macbook, it sucks. Since I'm not gaming, however, it's not a deal breaker. - Price. If you are going to pay full price for this, well, you probably have extra money to burn. Not worth it buying at full price. Apple will charge you +$200 per 256gb of extra storage. It's soldered to the motherboard, so, whatever choice you get, no upgrading later. It's done on purpose to get you to spend more money on the higher storage options. - No Fans. Apple had issues with the M2 Macbooks running ridiculously hot. This appear to have been fixed, but, still doesn't seem right to not at least have a small blower fan on the CPU/GPU. They reserve fans for the Pro models - again, another way to try and get you to upgrade. In their defense, if you aren't doing anything heavy, it's not necessarily required. If you are going to do heavy video editing on this, you're probably not even looking at this model and will be spending more on the Pro version. - 60hz in 2024. This is nitpicky, but, my opinion nonetheless. Other Notes: - In my personal opinion, you have to ask yourself what you're going to use this for. Are you going to surf the web, check email, upload photos, do light video editing for youtube? If yes, this will probably work for you. If you're going to do heavier editing, you'll probably best to just get an external SSD for on the go editing. Don't get ripped off on overpriced internal storage. Quite frankly, the new minimum for storage should be 512gb and not 256gb. Also, do yourself a favor and get the 16gb version if you're going to do any sort of light video editing work. 8gb RAM just isn't really enough anymore - unless all you're doing is using it for emails and surfing the web. Final note - I highly recommend to buy it on sale. Yes, it's a quality product, but, Apple uses it's own name to justify overcharging folks. Bought mine during black friday and got $250 off this model.
