    Got one 2 weeks ago. Changed my life coming from a 720p screen, 7th gen intel i7 and slow ssd. And it’s still faster than a beefy computer that my work gave me. I use it instead of that for computational work, didnt have a hiccup till now

    congrats! great little medium end machine that’ll do more than many think. there’s always an upgrade so don’t worry about it if anyone says you should have got the pro or whatever. this thing will rock for many years

    I got one a few months ago to learn how to code. I love it, I have a portable Asus screen which it powers through thunderbolt cable with HDMI. Can go like 6-8 hours on a full charge with dual screens.

    It’s looking great enjoy it mate :) I’m also on the market for either 16g M1 air or 16g M1 pro there is only 70$ difference where I live but I can’t decide 😅 Btw I still use the 1st gen X1 Carbon so it’s definitely gonna be hell of a upgrade 😂

    Enjoy your new machine ! Despite that some may say like “M2 is better, better to take Pro model”, don’t listen, this is now your Mac and I know how is it to start having doubts about new purchase (happed to me as I got myself basic M3 MBP with 8 gb of ram). So be sure that YOU are the one who likes this laptop, not anyone else. Again, enjoy your new Mac !
