    iPad Pro Why did you choose the iPad Pro 12.9 over the MacBook Air?

    Just curious about why some of you iPad Pro 12.9 users chose it over the MacBook Air? One of the biggest reasons for myself is that I mainly use a desktop computer. I like using the 12.9 iPad Pro since it is a different experience than what I already have on my desktop. I also really like the...

    Buy MBA M1 now, or wait for MBA 2022?

    It's the usual story. With current offers, I'm able to get a brand new base MBA M1 for £850 and given the rave reviews, I'm incredibly tempted. But it feels silly given that the next iteration is probably less than 6 months away? And will see a big redesign, rather than just slight...

    13" M1 Air vs Pro

    I’m currently deciding between the M1 Air and 13” Pro, both at 16GB/512GB, the price difference is £235. Unfortunately I had to return the 14” as I found out I’m sensitive to PWM at that level, so only have the option of these two. My current laptop is a mid-2014 MBP which I’ve had since...

    I need to completely reinstall macOS. Which way to choose?

    There is a need to completely reinstall the system on my MacBook Air M1. Did a return from Monterey to BigSur via an installation from an external drive, but I suspect the process didn't go quite right. Now here's a question - does it make sense to do a system reinstall via DFU mode using a...

    Is M1 Macbook Air still a good buy?

    So I have been using my 2015 MBP. Was excited to see M1 MBA outperform Intel MBP last year. Still, waited for MBP design refresh this year. The announcement today was a mixed bag. The new Apple Silicon MBPs have awesome specifications. But the extremely dated design, the dimensions, weight and...

    MBP 16” vs MacBooks with M1

    Last year I’ve change MBP 13” 2016 for MBP 16” just because of home office. Bigger display was a game changer for me. In fact I don’t even need so much power. I don’t play with video editing or photoshopNow I am wondering if I should back to 13” with M1. First I bought 32” external monitor. At...
