It's August in 2022. This machine from 2017 STILL does everything
most people do just fine. Browsing, coding, netflix, spotify, imovie (yes 4k projects) etc...
Absolute 0 problem. The machine is great at 900grams.
I have the 2017 version (latest produced) 3 times.
- one white (girl has it, does everything on it, takes it to cafes and does all her work on it, love's it, would never trade it)
- one spacegrey (i use it for commuting, watching movies in the plane, writing email at the beach, taking it hiking for emergencies etc.)
- one spacegrey (sealed, new ...as backup)
Today, August 2022, I would pay 800usd easily for a sealed, new Macbook 12' from 2017.
*Just for fun here is a photo of my sealed one with a newspaper from a few weeks ago...
