    M2 MacBook Air 13" Battery Life

    Hi all, I've recently bought brand new 13" M2 MBA, replacing my old 2017 13" MBP with Touch Bar. I was hoping for a massive increase in battery life, considering both M2's efficiency and the fact that it's a new battery, but so far it's been disappointing. I'm getting around 6 hours of Safari...

    Google Meet Battery Drain - M1Pro?

    hey guys, Trying to get some additional information on this. I am upgrading from an M1 MacBook Air to a 14" M1 Pro MacBook Pro and am alarmed at the battery drain, specifically during Google Meets with Safari. My battery drains over 20% in less than 1 hour. This seems to be more than double...

    M1 13" Macbook Pro vs. M2 Macbook Air?

    My 2015 13" MBP is finally on its deathbed after many long years of faithful service, and as much as I'd love to splurge on the 14" or 16" MBPs, I'm looking for a budget-friendly upgrade for now. I've narrowed down my options to the following two, which are also practically identical in price...

    M2 Air Gap between screen and body when closed

    I just got my MacBook Air M2 and noticed it has a gap on the top corner of about the thickness of a sheet of paper when its closed. Don't think its a problem but just wanted to see if someone else has this.

    M2 MacBook Air throttling is being vastly over-exaggerated

    From the evidence I've seen, I believe firmly that people are vastly overhyping the effects of the throttling in the M2 MacBook Air. The YouTube review I've seen so far with the most thorough benchmarks is Dave2D's, and he went so far as to say that "if you're someone that wants a very powerful...

    Well spec'd M2 MBA or Low/Mid M1 MBP 14

    Parallels on the M2 MacBook Air

    Hello everyone, Crossposting this from the MacBook Air forum because it seems like it might be more appropriate here. I mentioned in one of my previous posts on the Air forum that I've gotten the M2 Air as an everyday carry laptop for when I start an online program for graduate school in...

    Macbook Air M2 In-Store Reservation (Launch Day)

    Can anyone recall how in-store reservations for launch days typically work? I'll be travelling on launch day so was thinking I'll pick one up overseas. When pre-orders go live on Friday July 8th, will in-store reservations go live? Or do I have to wait until the store opens on July 15th, order...
