Kool Aid
29 de marzo de 2025
My first Mac, coming from Windows.
Update June 2025, rescoring from 3 stars to 5 for the remarkable stability and raw performance of the computer after using it in clamshell mode for several months, zero lag no matter how many tabs i open in chrome and the wifi and bluetooth are insanely strong, I can hear my headphones all the way in the backyard with zero issues unlike my windows pc.Geforce now a cloud based game streaming service runs with zero issues or drops which solved all my gaming issues.Pros:Very thin, light and sleek.The hardware is very impressive, I mean the psychical build of the laptop and its aluminum build.The screen and keyboard are also very top notch.The m4 chip is very fast, zero lagThe massive 24 gigs of memory is abundant and allows the laptop to tear through tasks.Apples own mac os is fast and snippy and their built in apps are all great!It has great compatibility with my iphone 13 and can even let me use a virtual version of my phone when using the macbook air.Cons:Lack of ports, 2 usb c ports is inadequate.But the biggest issue is this..You simply cannot run as many applications as a windows pc can, alot of my games, engineering, and finance apps are simply not compatible with macos, it could be due to the arm chips in the system or the smaller install base on apple pcs but the fact remains you can't even run games like overwatch or diablo4 on mac natively...It feels like a glorified ipad.As a massive pc gamer this is a big draw back for me, this makes the mac feel more like a toy and not a serious computing environment.Ver másVer menos
