Battery life is amazing, she's getting about 10 hours
8gb and 256gb was too small
And it will only be for preorder until its available a few weeks later, and will cost $200 more for a few months after initial release.
USB C only is dealt with easily by buying USB to USB C adapters on Amazon. Like $10.
Only caveat is the battery does not last long.
I upgraded from a 2015 Air, and it was a very noticeable decline in battery life.
Other than that it's amazing!
does that allow video transfer via type c
Apple also initially said MBA 2020 could get 18 hours with video playback, and 15 hours normal web use.
Are you running Monterey?

I'm on Monterey 12.4 the latest release, as far as the quoted battery life, people replicated it on YT and got close to it but for normal usage I don't expect to get the same. I guess it just depends on which apps you're using, for me it's mostly web browsing and light data science/development stuff.

Otherwise, 8 GB now goes much further thanks to M1 and native apps.
I follow this thoroughly and every single established rumor-mill has hinted to a late Fall release for the new Air.
We would have gotten many leaks if the announcement was in merely two weeks. Alas, we don't even have a solid rumor.
Knowing Apple, they may just discontinue this, the new M2 Mac could easily be $1200 base price with inflation going on right now, and they are having issues with manufacturing at the moment. Something like this happened with the iPad mini, there were deals popping up on the mini 5 A few months ago, $300 and it's still a fine iPad, but everyone here said "no, wait for the new mini 6, it's gonna be the same price" and sure enough the mini 6 comes out with a 100-150$ higher than previous base price of 500-600$ 🤦 and you couldn't buy the mini 5 anymore at all
