Quote from Gotchaforce :
Rumored.

As an apple investor I don't think apple would come out with m2 in a 13" pro it's going to confuse their product line too much. If they do they will emphasize that it's a more efficient m1 but less powerful than m1 pro

They do releases with intention.

M2 also is not twice as good as m1 base, were just now all on arm architecture, soon no one will care, it's like a7 vs a8, the iphone was already faster than 99.9999% of androids so it's basically irrelevant. No normal consumer knows what iphone first had a8
I think the M2 is just going to run a little more efficiently. Better battery life and lower heat. At least that is what I gathered from my sisters, uncle, boyfriend who is best friends with a guy that knowns a guy that works on these.

This is a good deal, similar discount to last weeks Costco MacBook base model. Much better than the potentially available EPP corporate store that may have this at 6% discount. Also this has the Costco return policy plus the extra warranty with the Costco Citi credit card.

I wanted the 1TB SSD rather than the 512GB and without having to 'customize' it on the Apple store this is the next best thing.

This is coming from a lifetime of PC use both business/personal, time for a change. Not going to debate why Apple is more expensive than everyone else or PC vs. Mac debate, but to have everything 'just work' and 'efficiently' is uncommon in the IT world.

Supposedly M2 isn't as powerful but possibly more efficient minus the pro motion screen for those 'Lite' users. Similarly with the upcoming MacBook Air.

I wanted the 32gb also but it was a 2 month wait through apple. Also with the way they use their memory 32gb is nice but it does not use it like other intel silicon, check out some youtube videos on m1 16gb vs 32gb
All of our developers were using 32GB Macbook Pro model with Intel CPU because we have too many docker containers to run. With M1, 16GB RAM is more than plenty. JFYI.

Wouldn't it be better to spend on the 16" variant (base) since it has more features in terms of better speakers battery and some other things. More screen real estate is good too!

Sr Engineer here.
a) you don't need this powerhouse to "learn to code", even rasb pi will suffice
b) work typically buys you a machine
c) you don't need 32Gb of memory unless you running heavy orchestration or lots of VMs
d) my daily driver is MBA with 8Gb of memory (needed one ASAP when they come out, could not wait for 16Gb delivery). I would be happier with 16Gb model but 8Gb chugs through all my tasks without issues. It got slightly slower on Monterey but not to a level of discomfort. Prior to upgrading, I didn't have a single issue with performance.

From what I have read the 14" is the sweet spot in terms of value, if you can call $2,000+ MacBook a good value. The 14" lets you fast charge it (50% in 30min) with a 140w or 96w adapter or connected to apples insanely priced pro monitor. The 16" only lets you fast charge from 140w adapter because it draws so much power.

The last deal with 14" and 512gb SSD only had a 60w power brick I think, this meant you had to buy another one to use fast charging. The 14" with 1TB is supposed to come with the 96w power brick. This is similar to the basic 24" iMac having less ports and no touch keyboard, than the model $400 up had.

The new chips do very well with memory, so 16GB is more than enough for most people. You can order 32gb to future proof it, but your better off spending extra to get 1TB of ssd space. Costco also takes $60 off the normal price of apple care, if Im paying $2000+ for a laptop, then $200 for 3 years is worth it, considering this model is brand new.

Im sure Costco will have a few hundred off a 16" model soon if your unsure, but the 14" model seemed to have a lot of the right features I have been waiting for.

A MacBook Air M1 8GB is a great start for someone just starting to learn programming. You do not need this, as work will more than likely provide you with something.

So apple will go backwards
The M2 is designed for low-power devices like the Air, Mac Mini, and base model Pro. There will likely be an M2 Pro and Max.

I like the 14" variant too don't get me wrong. Just that I was thinking of the bigger screen and speakers. Then again, that 16" is heavy and not as convenient to lug around. Thanks for the long advice and 14" will be it for me!

At this price 32GB should be the norm.
