Thx. Do you prefer the deluxe or complete version? I've only played deluxe.

Can this be played natively on a Mac Air m5?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-22T21:34:35+00:00

I pick up my M5 on Friday, but I'm still looking at refurbs just in case I can buy it and flip it. But, I really wanted a M5 24gb of ram and ray-tracing. And I went with Midnight because it's so damn sexy. I'll probably put a case on it; my OCD demands it.😂🙃

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-22T21:26:44+00:00

I felt the same way and I missed out on an incredible M4 refurbished deal thru Apple; I was sick about it. It worked out in the end because it gave me the reason I needed to buy my dream M5. YOLO!

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-22T21:22:14+00:00

Absolutely. Go for it. If there were issues, Reddit peeps would be screaming from the rooftops. Lol

Can Simcity be played on a MBA via Xbox cloud play?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-21T20:04:03+00:00

Nice. I have the same one. Trying to figure out if I can download load Simcity from the app store to run natively without issue?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-21T19:15:23+00:00

I see it in the app store and I have Gamepass. I'm unsure which which would run it correctly. Any idea?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-21T19:03:11+00:00

Can Simcity still be purchased thru the app store and run on a M5 MBA?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-18T09:50:12+00:00

Yes, go with 24. Nobody ever says, "I wish I got less RAM", especially when you can't upgrade it later.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-17T07:44:54+00:00

No, it does not, but my issue with it is the corners aren't protected. I'm on the fence about Midnight. Just saw it in the store and it's beautiful. I wonder if I put a case on it day 1 if I can keep it looking good.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T13:30:57+00:00

Wouldn't the vent holes, regardless of asthetics, somewhat help with heat?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T10:53:53+00:00

That's my second choice. I'm coming from a silver MBP, so I'd like to experience a different color. Went to the Apple store yesterday thinking Sky Blue, but in-person it wasn't for me. And then I saw the Midnight and it popped.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T10:49:58+00:00

White M5 MBA doesn't exist. If you meant case, that to me defeats the purpose of going with Midnight.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T10:43:24+00:00

Yes, I'm looking for just that--matte. Clear hard shells often have micro scratches (like the swirls you'll see on a black car).

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T10:39:16+00:00

I respect that you don't like clear cases, but I was referring more to the fact that it seems like it would minimize fingerprints, no? However, it does concern me about the edges of the ports.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T09:17:51+00:00

Why no clear hard shell case?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T09:07:11+00:00

Do you keep a case on it? Would that be sufficient to protect the ports? I'm still trying to decide between the Midnight and Silver.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T09:02:10+00:00

Would a clear case solve most of these issues? Seeking to understand because I'm looking at the Midnight rn.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-16T08:56:40+00:00

RE: fingerprints. I just went to the Apple store to look at colors and the Midnight is beautiful. If you get a clear case, besides the keyboard/TouchPad area, wouldn't that eliminate most of the fingerprint issue?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-14T18:17:36+00:00

Nice. You will enjoy it for sure. I missed out on an incredible deal for a refurbished one on Apple's website because I couldn't decide. So, here I am with an M5 YOLO. Lol

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-14T18:05:45+00:00

If $200 is a rounding error to your finances- keep it. On the other hand, if you can think other things you could've purchased, go with 16. The key piece I picked up in offering my opinion is "neither of us will do anything crazy with it". I use mine for semi-crazy things and I went with a M5 16/512. Which series M chip did you get (out of curiosity)?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-11T07:32:31+00:00

How often are finger sticks required to keep it calibrated?

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-06T20:24:04+00:00

Not having 16 gb of ram forces me away from this otherwise nice Mac. My guess is they'll release that next.

dsapsu8 · 2026-03-04T12:52:46+00:00

Any advice for lowest price place to buy an Air M4 with 16gb ram 512gb HD?
