Review on 13.3" Apple MacBook Air 13 Late 2020 2560x1600, Apple M1 3.2 GHz, RAM 8 GB, SSD 256 GB, Apple graphics 7-core, macOS, MGND3ZP/A, Gold, English layout by Stanislaw Mirzalek ᠌

It's my very first Apple laptop. Like a real laptop, this one has all the features you need. The more I think about it, the more I want to improve! Incredibly, the case is so smooth that your fingers will naturally move across the keyboard and trackpad. Please don't take this the wrong way, but after installing a macbook on my trusty old Lenovo laptop, I find myself wanting to swiftly shut it off because the buttons and the screen are no longer the same. Now we'll get into the specifics. The battery life is fantastic. Typically, after a full day of use (Internet, office apps, light programming in Python), I get home to find that my phone still has over 50% of its charge. Second, the fan is not actively cooling the processor. Hence, there is no sound coming from the laptop at all. Moreover, the enclosure will not attract dust and draw it within. 3. Almost no warmth at all. Only when utilizing Rosetta did I become aware of any heating. Knees don't get hot, they're soft, and they're M1-optimized. The display is stunning. Here, I really don't have anything to contribute. The display must be able to be observed. As a replacement for my old laptop's 13-inch HD screen, it's like seeing through a window into a whole new world. 5. A keyboard with a gentle, short key travel and a comfortable profile (slightly concave under the finger). You can work in any light thanks to the backlight on the keyboard. There is no longing for a mouse because the touchpad is so feather-light and the hands never tire of gliding over its smooth surface. Well, let's talk about the problems. One thing I'd like to see added is more port options. Having only two USB-C ports on the side is clearly insufficient. Having at least one USB 3 port available is necessary for connecting peripherals like USB flash drives. Having an adaptor is helpful (the benefit of such deliciousness on the infamous site from the heavenly heap), but it's a burden to lug everywhere. Second, there are times when M1 software is unavailable. Although if the processor is undoubtedly brilliantly designed, even seemingly simple tasks, like installing numpy in May 2022, proved to be quite an ordeal. A little later, put in opencv and do some tambourine dancing. Third, the Apple keyboard's foreign language was a source of first annoyance. The 2022 layout features a comma and a dot in the same place as the numbers, which seems inhuman. It's not a huge deal though, because I'm used to it.
