Seems like a good straight price, a little cheaper than an Apple Store refurb and Edu (but w/o GC) with the same specs.

Definitely worth watching... long-term test.

Verdict: don't buy. Wear and tear showing prematurely.

The added RAM and storage help, mainly because the base unit is a horror show for the price. This would be a good price... if this was a 15-inch.

The 8gb is NOT enough for everyday work! I have 4 Safari tab opening, 2 of them are YouTube, and play the league of legends TFT at the same time. The tft only has 30fps due to memory..99% usage

Careful! If Apple fanboys see this, they will flame you without mercy. laugh out loud

Oh, and imagine how much the swap file is being used.

MacBook airs aren't for gaming anyways so moot point. It's for light programming and general use at most.

Just pay like 1,500 more and you can get yourself a m2 pro max 16" 12 core cpu 38 core Gpu 1tb sd from the Apple Store and that MacBook is going to last you longer production wise than this one. Well depends on what you use it for. I'll be editing videos and using digital audio workstations so I need the power.

Just add a little. Just double the price. lol

I've had a base model 15" Air the last few weeks and it has been great! I'd upgrade the RAM at least if I was gonna keep it until it died but I upgrade every 2 years so I'll keep the $$$ for the next greatest thing haha. Highly recommend the M2 Airs if you're not a "Pro" lol.

Me too got 16/512 m2 15 inch for 1450 with 150 apple gift card. Speakers are nice can really notice the female moaning and the hemorrhoids are also very noticeable as well on close ups.

No complaints

Is Air m2/16/512 good enough for 4 years of college (CS major at UW Madison)?
Does anyone think Windows laptop like Dell XPS would be better?
