Using it still today, an absolute BEAST. The screen and battery are the highlighting hardware features for me. And software wise, I love using Alfred for Mac.
But like only thing dats making me hesitant is how long does it take to charge I've heard it takes 3+hours from 1-100% is that true ? And how gd is the display compared to nowadays OLED displays avaialabe in the best and even cheap laptops ?
@@ronathsomaratne2317 No, it doesn't take that long. I use the 30w charger that came in the box, although, M1 Air also supports 65w charging. On my 30w charger, I keep the charge between 20% and 80%, and it takes almost 1 hour for that. The display is very good, LCD is power efficient and still produces great colors, and the 1440p resolution is more than enough for reading text etc. It covers the whole DCP3 color gamut so color reproduction is amazing and accurate. OLEDs definitely have the advantage when it comes to deeper blacks, for example, in movie scenes that are relatively dark. Also, their colors pop a bit more. I have heard good things about Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, but can't say about other cheaper displays. In short, both will have excellent displays and it should not be the deciding factor between 2 laptops. Hope that answers your question.
I bought this mac from flipkart for around 54k by exchanging my 2017 pentium processor hp laptop for 9k with exchange bonus. Man this laptop is a beast for that price range. You can get this around 64k without exchange from flipkart, it's still worthy for that price range too.
I bought this laptop in Jan 2022 and its the best purchase i have ever made when it comes to tech. For anyone wondering about charge times this laptop charges in About 2hrs with the charger that comes in the box. I use it daily. Also if you are not video editing i can assure that you can get about 13-14hrs of battery life because thats what am getting with my usage. My usage is safari with 3-4 tabs, chrome with 4-5 tabs, pycharm, visual studio, imessage, whatsapp, mail. I have been using this laptop for mainly learning and content consumption. On macos 14.4.1 the software is stable as it can get. Overnight battery drain is just 1 percent which surprises me even to this day. And the battery health is still at 96 percent after 2 years of usage. Also i have a base model btw and i never faced ram issues, the swap usage is about 200-400mb at most. For anyone wanting a good laptop with great battery life, screen, keyboard, trackpad, build quality and lastly decently good speakers and you have no problem with macos this machine is the one to get between 60-70k. I will probably use this one for 4 more years and then upgrade to a macbook pro with promotion.
I just bought a used one with 16GB of ram for $400 (all 4 corners are damaged quite significantly) and it is absolutely amazing for my use case. 16GB is overkill, but it was a good deal and will be future proof. I kept my last MBP for almost 4 years, hoping I can do the same here.
They sale these at Walmart for $650. I think for that price and the M1 power. It is the best budget laptop unless you workflow honestly needs more power(90 percent will not be in that category).
Hey, very good Video! I ws just wondering how long will apple support this Macbook (software wise), and more importantly it maybe be good now but will it be able to hold up even after 3-4 years down the line cuz this isn't something we upgrade frequently.
If you are planning to get a laptop for the next 3 to 5 years, I would not recommend M1 as it's discontinued at all Apple outlets. Plus if anything happens to your laptop post 1 year the service + repair charges are almost half the cost of the laptop. Better go with M2 Or M3 base version with Apple Care Plus service for 3 years. No tension.
@@nitishmedi1711I want everything like coding, gaming , and also battery life because I don't want to use laptop with plugin charger can you suggest me laptop with good gaming like gta5 etc.and most important battery life 😊😅
Unlike some companies giving Software update which gives issues to the phones Apple is built different , you can definitely trust them THey give value to the custmer , I have updated to the latest os and their no bug and safety issues
But like only thing dats making me hesitant is how long does it take to charge I've heard it takes 3+hours from 1-100% is that true ? And how gd is the display compared to nowadays OLED displays avaialabe in the best and even cheap laptops ?
no from 10 to 100 it can take around 2 hours only Dislpay is top notch for this price Oled is just a gimmick you dont feel a bid difference I think this is one of the best displays still
Great review, i have bought this in 2024 and i am really happy with the price to performance ratio. Also thanks a lot for the wallpaper link, loved it.😍
Depends upon the usage dude..for a student it is sufficient..it can get u done almost all the work and if u are a programmer/developer..then it is one of the best laptops out there and yeah obviously it's not for gaming and tbh 256 gb is enough for me
Which MacBook Air should I get now? I want to use it for 4-5 years from now. My usage is like using Microsoft Word for like 6-8 hours every day and browsing, watching videos, etc. Which Air should I get? M2 or M3? I can also avail the student discount.
I bought the M1 Air this year at a very good price from amazon. This machine is awesome. I use it as my daily driver for browsing, documentation, excel sheets and image editing. The mac holds pretty well even when multi-tasking having multiple browser tabs opened. For most users 8GB RAM is sufficient although 16GB would be an icing on the cake.
Hoping to learn 4k video editing on it and earn through it,might do 4-5 hrs video editing a day (for 2-3 yrs) Will it get hot/damaged? Will it work well? Hoping to go for mac air m2 16 gb Should i but apple care too? Thx for the reply
@@Bhargav_Gadekar it's a nearly double the price of mac air,literally costing nearing to 2 lakhs rs,instead I could buy the latest macbook air + mac mini pro(equivalent to macbook pro).

We have to buy apps in this laptop actually I am not an apple guy so I just wanted to know about macbook and I am going to collage so will it be the best?
Should I buy used Macbook m1 pro 16/512 variant in 75-85k? My logic for buying used macbook is that i can get higher ram/ssd variant and also the pro chip at almost the same price which i would pay for higher ram variant of new macbook air. My use case is Coding and Video Editing. Please reply
Are you actually getting it that cheap, if yes then just close your eyes and go for it. I hope you are talking about MacBook M1 Pro 2021. It's sucha beast. So much better than the MacBook Air shown in this video. It's insanely fast
Mera intel i7 macbook pro 16inch from 2019 kharap ho gya ! Service centre wlo 60k mang raha hai ! Aur itna paisa hai nhi ki mai pro variant mai ja saku abhi ! It has to be under 1lakh ! What to do ? Btw Im a remote software engineer
