Ah, my mom has it… honestly, the Bezel and chassey are UGLLLYYYY and the screen isn’t as sharp as the M1P/M2P. The keyboard is miles better though

I’d recommend getting the MBP M1P over the MBP M2

Or actually, the MacBook Air M2

Interesting. I will check if that's an option. Other option is X1 carbon. i7-1185G7. 16gb and 512gb

I’m using M2 16gb Ram with 512gb Macbook Air now before this I had base version which was way to slow. But since the upgrade I’m happy with the performance and everything. Also, the compact factor is really good.

What you’re talking about is the base config for the air
Base is 8 gb ram

Disappointing, I switch from an old MacBook air M1 to macbook pro M2 to have a more smoother and faster experience but honestly not much of a difference.

Well. I am upgrading 3 year old x1 carbon.

Yeah, honestly the delta value between the any of the M1s (including the pro) vs the M2s is absolutely nothing

Be back in a week to tell us what your first impressions are :)

Sure thing. Would be couple of weeks. It's a office laptop, so might take few days for delivery

Ooo nice! Also, it’ll be a huge bummer if you don’t get the dbrand teardown sticker. Its $30 but the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen

Still waiting for my laptop. ☹️. Feeling sad. So just wanted to express my feelings.

You mean the base version M2 MacBook Air was slower than the one you're using right now? (I can't think of a reason that would make a significant difference except for the doubling of the RAM - that too if you do a lot of heavy-duty multitasking)

I was actually considering upgrading my MacBook and was comparing the newer models.
I'm using the 2017 MBP Intel i5 8GB RAM.
Wanna upgrade because the battery life has gone down significantly and heating issues during heavy multitasking (building iOS apps etc)

I’m considering upgrading from Pro M1 to Air M2, assuming it will be a performance upgrade (for running stable diffusion & the likes).
