    Good time to buy M2?

    So M3 is around the corner, and Apple just released this 15 inch MBA with an almost 1-year-old chip. I know for MBA performance doesn’t technically matter, but I am quite curious about what efficiency improvements M3 (3nm) could bring. What do you think about the timing of this 15-inch MBA...

    15 Macbook Air + New colors?

    I just saw that there is potential for a new 13 inch macbook air, alongside the 15, but the processor will still be the M2 chip. I’m not really sure what new features they would add, and even if they did brobg some new features what would they advertise? I feel like a logical answer may be new...

    Should I buy the new M2 Mac Mini (2023) with upgraded 16GB unified memory, or an upgraded 512GB storage capacity?

    I am seriously considering buying the new Mac Mini (2023) with the standard M2 chipset. However, as a student (using the discount), I can not afford to upgrade all the way. I am capable of affording only one upgrade which I would very much like. The following are the options: I can upgrade the...

    Could Apple get sued for SSDgate?

    You may already know that Apple uses 1 single NAN chip in their M2 MacBooks. However, this comes at a huge cost in performance. The 256 GB SSD model on the M2 performs WORSE than the M1 models. That is what SSDgate is. Apple also makes the claim that the M2 MacBooks are faster, but they give...

    Macbook Air M2, a few questions to users

    Hi everyone, I'm quite interested by the new Macbook Air M2 (my current model is a MBP 13 inch 2015, Intel) for having a lighter and faster machine (+ the great form factor, I admit). Of course as plenty of us have already seen, there are some reviews online showing heavy workload leading to...

    Will M2 MacBooks stop getting MacOS updates at the same time their M1 counterparts?

    It looks like only minor differences are evident between M2 and M1 chips other than 50% increased memory bandwidth. But as far as I can tell the M1 Pro, M1 Max and M1 Ultra also have much greater bandwidth than M1. I'm thinking M1 machines will go first and then M1 Pro/Max/Ultra and M2 will...
