Absolutely. I started with the base MBA 8/7/8/256. Then I went with the MBP a week later, better performance IMO but hated the form after trying the MBA. Then went with MBA 8/8/8/512 - SO AWESOME. Now I am waiting for the MBA 8/8/16/512. The only thing on the Pro that called my attention was the battery and fan, but I am totally ok with what I have on the MBA.

Any place but here or there....
I loved it, but had all kinds of issues with the memory, battery life along with spotty bluetooth and wifi, so I returned it.

The Air changed my mind about Apple laptops. I loved using it, especially typing.

Hope everyone enjoys their MBA.

I am super happy with my M1 MacBook Air. I have always wanted a sleek machine that is being able to push the boundaries, both in terms of innovation and what the machine can do. M1 chip delivers that and happy to jump on that bandwagon early than wait for M2 or M3.

I was a fan of the previous MacBook (12”) but it was terrible when it came to performance but I think Apple hit a home run with the MacBook Air!

I am all in on the M technology. Bought the M1 Mini and the M1 MBA and now could not be happier. Paid for both the Mini and the MBA (about $2300) with the sale of my 2019 16" MBP at a decent price the day after the M1 announces. I had bought a 27" Dell 4K monitor to connect with the Mini, but was able to trade up to a 32" Dell 4K today on Amazon's Black Friday sale for only $200 more. The icing on the cake was that my wife was thrilled to get handed down my 2015 iMac. Fortunately, I did not have any Intel stock to get rid of. Life is good.

What's your different use cases for the Mini vs MBA? (As oppose to an Air/Pro + Dock arrangement)
