- Is the M2 MacBook Air worth it over the M1 Air?
- The M2 adds a bigger, brighter screen, MagSafe, a better webcam and a newer design. If those matter, it is the better buy; for basic tasks the M1 remains capable.
- Is 8 GB of memory enough?
- For browsing, documents and streaming, yes. For many tabs, large photo libraries or video editing, choose 16 GB, since memory cannot be upgraded later.
- How does it compare with the 13-inch MacBook Pro?
- The Pro has a fan for sustained heavy work and a longer-rated battery, but it is heavier and uses the older design. The Air suits most people who want light and silent.
- Does it have a fan?
- No. It is fanless and silent, but long exports and heavy sustained loads can slow it down compared with fan-cooled Macs.
- What is in the box?
- The laptop, a USB-C to MagSafe 3 charging cable and a USB-C power adapter. No mouse or sleeve is included.
- Can I connect an external monitor?
- Yes, one external display up to 6K at 60 Hz. The lid must be closed to use more than one external screen.
