Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just super, it's beautifully made, I'm very happy with it.

Long chose between Air and Pro. In general, the result is this: - performance is completely identical - screen and form factor are identical - the absence of a fan will be noticed only by those who know how to load the laptop to the fullest and they need it in their work - the sound of the firmware is much better When the situation with the processors is established and it becomes clear that no major hardware ates are expected in the near future, I will take the Pro. In the meantime, in order not to wait, I use Air and am very pleased. I advise you to buy American versions with caution, if you plan to engrave - it will look so-so, because. no light is visible through it. Better look for a cheaper PCT - an overpayment of only a few thousand turns out. Sort on the market by price and make sure that the model name ends with RU / A. The most practical color is silver, the rest are painted, after a while there are traces of hands on them

Pros
  • The M1 processor is a cannon. Same performance as Pro. It does not heat up even when installing heavy software or editing video. If you look at Pro only because of the fans, I advise you not to overpay, as the laptop is really cold even under load. Rosetta works correctly in most cases (check this point for your software before buying if you use something unusual)
Cons
  • Sound when compared to Pro. Moreover, if you put the Air next to most laptops, it will seem that the sound of the Air is almost perfect - it really is much better than on most laptops. But if you put Air next to Pro (I put it next to the 2022 firmware), then the difference is very big. The Air has a much, much simpler sound than the Pro. Well, be prepared that the first year you will be a beta tester of everything, because. applications only adapt to the new platform, and even in the system the button for quickly changing the language (globe) is sometimes dull. Another example - reset to the factory and got problems for the whole day, because. during the initial setup, user accounts were refused to be created. Cause? Just a bug. Another point - when fully discharged, instead of hibernation, there is a complete shutdown
