As usual, a few days before the first deliveries of a new device, Apple usually sends some units to some journalists “plugged in” from the company, so that they can publish their first impressions before the rest of the users.
And the new ones have already been launched MacBook Air M2, that the first units purchased will begin to be delivered tomorrow. Let’s see what that select group of specialized critics think.
The first “unboxing” and the first impressions of the new MacBook Air M2 that Apple will begin to deliver tomorrow same. They are some units that the company has sent to journalists in the sector so that they can publish their first criticisms before the rest of mortals.
Although all of them have been very impressed (how could it be otherwise) by its design and power, there are two negative issues that have also attracted attention. Everyone thinks that it overheat in excess when you force them to work very intensely, and that the base model mounts an SSD somewhat slower than the 10-core GPU.
First impressions
gadget, for example, highlights exterior design thin and light even when compared to an iPad Pro M1. He says that it is even thinner and lighter than an iPad Pro with its corresponding Smart Keyboard. SixColors, on the other hand, has been impressed by the MagSafe connectorwhich has finally returned to the MacBook Air.
The Verge praises this new MacBook Air M2, but thinks it suffers from the same flaws as its cousin, the MacBook Pro M2. He says that it gets hot and slows down under heavy workloads, and that it also has a slower SSD in the cheaper version.
TechCrunch explains that this is the ideal laptop for most users. Particularly noteworthy is the incredible battery life. He was able to get a little over 17 hours of video playback, streaming video on the Apple TV, with the brightness at 50 and the sound on.
Gizmodo, over, fixated on the new 1080p webcam and says that the microphones on this computer are also very good. He recommends it without a doubt to make quality videoconferences. Quite a novelty in an Apple laptop.
In short, we could say that they have not said anything that we did not expect. A very light and beautiful MacBook, with a powerful processor. But of course, by having passive cooling, without a fan, by no means does it have to heat up if you give the M2 a lot of cane.
