Review: Not much to add to what's already been said in the many 5 star reviews. Google's description of their own Pixelbook Go: "Ultra thin, lightweight, a powerful processor" is exactly what the MacBook Air M1 is. The lowest priced MacBook but will be enough for many users. Solid build, nice screen, good travel on the keyboard. Very portable, not much larger than an A4 notebook. Some reviewers complain about the size of the bezels around the screen and how it looks outdated. I disagree. Still looks modern and in my opinion is a much better design than the awful M2 notch which seemingly only serves the purpose of letting others know in a coffee shop that you have the latest MacBook! Some reviews are also quite negative about the quality of the camera. For me, it's absolutely fine for video calls/meetings. My one criticism is that there is no charging indicator on the machine so you're unable to tell if the laptop is charging when switched off. Also, just to flag, don't expect this to be a Steam machine. Only approx 20% of my library installs. Age of Empires doesn't work but Civ 6, Day of the Tentacle and everybody's favourite "it looks rubbish but actually it's great" Vampire Survivors works! Lastly, Yes it does play Roblox but shockingly it's not available on the App Store. Just sign in to Roblox using a browser, select a game and download from there. Right, back to Piggy on the M1! ????

Review: This is my very first MacBook. As an exclusive PC user my entire life, I was very reluctant to get into the Apple ecosystem after getting out since the iPhone 4S. But I got back into it after receiving AirPods Pro as a gift... As a photography enthusiast, and becoming more and more disappointed with the quality of Samsung phones since the Note 9, I then looked into the iPhone 13 Pro and was convinced the iPhone would be a better match for my use case. I also upgraded my old iPad mini around that time, and was still super pleased with the user experience. A short time after, my old windows laptop started to act slow and couldn't edit holiday videos... I then had discussions with a few friends who have kept their MacBook for years and have only been happy with them, except for a friend who is a web developer and had some issues in recent years with recent models before this one (keyboards issues, bad customer service and repair policies...). After watching a ton of Youtube reviews, I was convinced to make the plunge and give it a try though. Couldn't be happier ! The laptop is very light, silent, and fast. Video editing, Photo editing is super easy. The integration with my other devices is unbelievably convenient and fast. Contacts, Calendar, Safari, Airdrop, Notes, connection to the AirPods, the battery life is unbelievable, especially compared to other PC laptops. For the price there's pretty much nothing that comes close in terms of performance and features. Hopefully MacOS continues with its long term reliability and stability compared to Windows, so I won't have to upgrade before a few years. Since I got the MacBook, I barely boot my old desktop PC I built 6 years ago. It covers pretty much all of my normal daily usage. The only reason why it's not 5 stars for me is the small disk space. I got the 256gb, thinking I can simply use my convenient 2TB small Samsung external drive, and for full storage and backup solution for my media (photos, videos) and other docs, I already have my Synology. But it is inconvenient to have the external drive always plugged in and attached at the back of the laptop. My other little annoyance is the lack of at least 1 regular USB port to avoid having to use a hub... All in all I still absolutely love this device. Especially based on the core reasons why I got it in the 1st place: - convenient quality light laptop I can bring with me on trips (or anywhere around the house) - powerful enough to edit 4K videos - convenient workflow to transfer and edit photos (Airdrop between phone/tablet and the MacBook is a real cheat code) - incredible battery life - (hopefully great long term purchase preventing upgrades every 2 years) - and the cherry on top that came as a surprise as a novice Apple user: the seamless integration of all Apple devices together If you have a budget of only £1000 for a laptop, don't hesitate, just get a MacBook Air.
