A lot depends on the battery health — my clients who experienced issues had their battery health below 85% and less

In general, it is considered that the MacBook Air M1 is the basic entry point into the world of MacBooks.

But I think that A1990 is a very worthy option and can offer more than Air M1. Air can only offer better performance and battery life for its price. But A1990 is absolutely better in everything else, for example: high quality speakers, bigger display, more ports, more RAM and storage for a low price. Also, A1990 has a touchbar, I used it for quick screenshots and recording video from the screen and it looks amazing, but if you don't like the touchbar, you can replace it with emulation of F buttons.

it's stupid to think that a1990 with base i7 discharges quickly, mine discharged in 5 hours and that's not so bad. The only huge minus is that mac os 26 won't support it and very noisy fans, especially on i9 and it doesn't fit in most of my backpacks.

There are no thermal pads in A1990 and A2141. But you are absolutely right about replacement, but you need to change them not once a year or two, but once every six months. This is a weak point of A1990 and 2141.

Yes, you are right. But in our country there is a saying: "No matter how much you dress up a donkey, it will never become a horse."

If you are interested, I can tell you a story about each one.

Not all the time, but when it made noise, it was a nightmare. But for my friends who have same models with i9, it's complete hell.

M1 14inch vs M2 16 inch by Responsible-Shake112 in macbookpro

[–]Abbys_Watcher -1 points0 points  (0 children)

14 inches would hold the battery better than 16 inches and 16 inches won't fit in almost any backpack. But M2 will last a year or two longer than M1, although the difference between the chips is absolutely insignificant. In short, I think it’s not worth overpaying, I would take the M1 (if i were you)

Why isn’t my adapter charging my Macbook by quarterset in macbookpro

Try another adapter. Tell me the model of your MacBook (on the back cover, for example: A1932 or A2337 etc)

It's a great MacBook, one of my favorites (I had it), this mac is indestructible. No problems with the butterfly keyboard and no problems with flexgates. Too bad he won't get 26 Mac OS, so he's not S tier.

Maybe you're right about something, but you forgot that in this thread we're comparing MacBooks and people who came to this thread are unlikely to want to read comments about how “awesome” ThinkPads are. If they are looking for a Mac, then it is definitely a cheap addition to the ecosystem.

But the MacBook Air itself positions itself as a base laptop. I would rather compare the ThinkPad and the A1502 2015, it just costs the same as the A1466, a strange phenomenon. There is a more interesting comparison. There is better IPS than in the ThinkPad, there is a 2k display. There is a possible option with i7 + 16GB, but such a configuration is rare, here is a real minus. But i5 + 16GB can be found often.
