okay I’ll get straight to the point we are Tech Wiis are basically edit on Apple machines we have used MacBook Air M1 Mac M2 Pro iMac M1 M3 MacBook Pro basically every MacBook after M1 launch and when I saw the price of MacBook Air M1 go down to 68,000 on flip card I was like what in fact I saw the
screenshot on Twitter it went down to 58,000 like damn being a Windows user even I would buy a Macbook at this price but wait a minute we reviewed the MacBook Air M1 in 2021 in fact MacBook M1 launched in November 2020 4 years from now so should you consider this M1 in 2024 as a Windows user should you even switch to a Macbook well this video is really interesting we have three MacBook Air M1 in the house and this is the only video you need to watch if you’re thinking to buy a Macbook let’s go
now in case you don’t know MacBook Air M1 is pretty iconic in terms of Apple laptop like MacBooks initially when launched in 1984 came with Motorola CPUs later in 1990 they switched to power PC which was made by IBM and Motorola together and then in 2000 finally to Intel CPUs and for 20 years it was Intel CPUs in every single MacBook until this MacBook Air M1 which was for the first time Apple
started designing the CPUs same as the iPhone now coming back to this laptop I believe at 60,000 price the MacBook M1 has three cons and precisely four Pros before we get to the cons and to the video this video is made in collaboration with Sur shock VPN and fair thing we have been using Sur shock VPN even before they approached us and two important reasons why you should get Sur shock VPN now you’re obviously being tran around the internet wherever you browse or whatever you buy so
Slim and Stylish: MacBook Air Design
getting a paid VPN makes sense for two important reasons number one subshock VPN works on all websites seamlessly with good privacy so you can even unlock contents that are not available in India here’s a good video for that subshock VPN not only starts as low as 180 rupees per month but you get unlimited device access so you can share it with your friends and family now subshock VPN partnered with team tww and you can ensure your privacy with Sur Shar enter coupon code Tech Weiser and get 4
months free at Sur shark. deal teiser also there is a 30 days money back guarantee so there’s no harm in trying now the build and display of MacBooks is pretty great like we have used Windows laptop in similar price range mostly they have a plasticky build with chipped from the edges or even if a metal laptop it gets Dent at the base or in fact the hinge starts showing problem after 2 to 3 years with this
MacBook M1 has this aluminium build and it feels rigid and durable you get a 13.3 in liquid Retina display the resolution is almost 1.5k and it is sharp enough in case you’re wondering liquid retina is just a fancy name for LCD display and while watching movies everything it is one of the best displays you can get at this price point even in terms of color accuracy it is one of the best and I said one of the best not the best because now in 2024 most of the Windows laptop has started coming with OLED displays now the
Performance for Everyday Tasks
second good thing about this M1 air is M1 chip 8 GB Ram 25 GB storage do note that it’s very hard to get the 16GB or 512gb variant of the MacBook Air M1 even when it launched it used to take a month to get the 16GB variant delivered and now since Apple has officially discontinued the MacBook M1 air it’s almost almost impossible to get a 16gb version of this so for storage in the future you will need a SSD but coming back to day-to-day performance see daily browsing it’s super fluid in fact even if you use Apple’s
own editing software Final Cut Pro you can easily edit reads or shorts even single layer 4K videos like hold on let me show you its performance so this is a similarly priced Windows laptop and this is MacBook M1 air now we’ll open 100 tabs from this website in just one click let’s see who does it first so both the laptops could successfully open 100 tabs as you can see and if we switch between the tabs or just switch between the tabs in MacBook yeah most of them are open so if it can open 100 tabs I think it’s pretty fine
enough for browsing like what would you do more than this in fact a lot of you guys who are in btech engineering you might get this laptop for AI machine learning so I just ran a small script to see its machine learning performance side by side with a core Ultra 5 Windows laptop and if you see the MacBook Air M1 does it in 566 seconds the Intel’s latest chip does it slightly quicker in 538 seconds so for that study coding purposes if your software supports it’s pretty neck to neck for the price now again I’m
Comparison with Other MacBooks
not that good in coding and all of that so here are some more benchmarks here’s geekbench ml here’s geekbench single core multi-core scores all in all even for 2024 standards at 60,000 the laptop isn’t slow but what’s best for 2024 is Apple ecosystem like of course you can easily aird drop files from here pick up calls on the MacBook in fact use your iPhone as a webcam but here are some latest features like
you can mirror your iPhone dis display on MacBook so this way you can even run iOS apps on MacBook and not just that recently Apple announced a bunch of Apple intelligence or AI features like you can automatically draft noes create images Etc so most of these features will also come to MacBook Air M1 and the fourth Pro would be battery life like apple claims it can run 18 hours but while watching movies
online web browsing you easily get 12 to 13 hours of battery life I hardly charge the laptop in a day but yes one tip that I would recommend as soon as you get your MacBook Air M1 New or Old go to battery battery and health click the I button you should see battery health like for us this is an old laptop so it is 84% if you buy a new Macbook Air M1 it should be 100% then the MacBook is good for you and it is not good for you if you’re bothered about these three cons like number one 8 GB Ram is too little
the only problem in terms of performance with the MacBook Air M1 is the ram like macw requires a lot of ram so frequently it will kill apps in the background or just reload the entire program but there is no solution to this since the 16GB Ram version is hardly available so if you use quite a lot of heavy apps it’s difficult or suppose you want to run Windows apps here which is possible using a third party app
called parallel you can run Windows 11 full-fledged on this but then it easily crosses 8GB Ram so if you do quite a lot of heavy task multitasking this MacBook Air M1 will be a problem and second is what do you think is the official keyboard replacement price of this air M1 take a guess yes take a guess 10,000 it’s almost 33,000 we went ahead to get our MacBook checked while it was in warranty this is the email
Is the MacBook Air Worth the Price?
and that’s what Apple quoted us for keyboard replacement thankfully this was under manufacturing defect and it was free replacement for us and suppose you need to replace battery which is the most common replacement you can see it cost 15,000 plus so you might buy this laptop for 60,000 it doesn’t mean it is 60,000 it originally sold for 95,000 so official Apple repair cost and spare part
price will be high in the market and lastly MacBook Air M1 is now almost 4 years old so Apple doesn’t specify how long MacBooks will get update but this will only get 2 to 3 years more update Apple has officially discontinued MacBook Air M1 so if you have the budget and MacBook Air M2 is available at around 70 75,000 I would recommend get that instead because you get one extra USBC Port plus 1080p
webcam and a better brighter display and lastly if your work heavily depends on Windows app it’s better to get a Windows laptop stay away from Mac Books and let us know if there’s a laptop that you want us to cover or you are excited about if it.
