I simply love this machine.
Even though I have a maxed out 16” M1 Macbook Pro, I still prefer to use this one for most of my work.
It’s light, it’s fast, got a great battery life, and for web development, it’s more than enough even if is the baseline model.
I love that I can just put in on my lap and work almost optimally since the keyboard is so good and it does not get hot.
The sound is also surprisingly good for such a small machine and I can use to listen to some music with someone else if I don’t have a speaker around.
You can even do some ligth gaming on it, I’ve been playing some minecraft with a dozens or so mods and it runs great.
The screen is fine, it’s sharp and the colors are good, but I’m a sucker for AMOLED and higher refresh rates. Also the size is ok if it’s on my lap but seems kinda smol when I’m using it on a desk. I say that I wouldn’t change this machine for any other, but things can change with this new 15” macbook air M2 👀.
The only downside that since that this was my first apple product, it was my gateway drug for the ecosystem and now I have an iPhone and the noise canceling the airpods pro 2 seems so good…
