• anyone have any experience with the new M2 air?

    i am on a 2017-ish Air and I think its time for an upgrade through work. I love the portability/sleekness of travelling with it. However, its struggling with a few work tasks (data crunching mostly) now that I'm doing more hybrid working.

    So do I go 14" Pro (32GB ram) or new M2 Air (24GB) ram?

    I'll also be commuting into London with it for 3-days a week ... is the 14" too bulky?

  • I have an M2 air with the 24Gb of ram. It’ll shit on any day to day work task. I run 5 desktops with two teams instances, outlook, OneNote, safari, chrome, WhatsApp, messages, Soho’s controller and anywhere between 5 and 10 ppt and excel open at any one time without any hint of slowdown or heat.

    Had a 16” M1 before that and glad I switched. So much more pleasant to cart to and from / around the office.

  • I have an M2 Air. I've just had the screen replaced because the backlight was uneven. While it was away I switched back to my 2015 MacBook Pro and was shocked at how slow it was.
