Hi folks,

​

I would like to buy a new laptop (I have only ever used Windows). I have been looking at these two models.

​

APPLE MACBOOK AIR 13" M1 - 8-CORE CPU / 7-CORE GPU, 8GB RAM, 512 GB SSD

1315,00€

​

​

APPLE MACBOOK AIR 13" M2 - 8-CORE CPU /8-CORE GPU, 8GB RAM, 512 GB SSD

1406,00€

​

I will not be cutting 4K videos or doing hardcore editing. I need a computer for simple work office, surfing, watching YT videos etc.

​

Personally, I would lean towards the older model, but the price difference is really manageable. However, I don't know if it's really worth buying the M2 Air. What are the real performance differences between the two models?

​

Can you help me, what do you think? Maybe also to those who own both models and have really lived with the laptops.

​

Thanks in advance.

For what it’s worth my M2 has 1 fewer usb c slot than my intel MBP.

I lost a usb c and gained a hdmi, so more connectivity kinda
