If nothing else, I’d get an idea of what Apple’s entry-level laptops are like and I could write this article. For now, Apple Silicon is only available in 13-inch models.īut I couldn’t help myself - I had to check these out at least, and if I’m not buying an outright replacement for my daily machine (yet), it just made the most sense to go with the cheapest notebook model. Like many others, I’m coming from a 16-inch MacBook Pro, so there’s no obvious upgrade path. When these computers launched - and early reviews confirmed their performance blew everything else out of the water - I faced a bit of a predicament. But I just couldn’t wait to see how these M1 chips actually perform, so I decided to pick up the base $999 MacBook Air to see how it would hold up side-by-side with my 16-inch behemoth. Last year I picked up a very expensive computer - a top of the line 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro upgraded to an i9, 1TB of storage, and 16GB of RAM.
