I’m just happy they keep upgrading so I can eventually get an m1 MacBook Pro for cheaper than the $900 I saw it on for a bit.

Kind of like the iPhone SE, they gotta make a MacBook Pro SE with the m1 chip and sell it forever.

But bring back MagSafe and USB c.

You can find great used deals on FB marketplace or OfferUp. I got an M1 Pro Mac Studio for $800 last month from some college student who didn’t need it

I got a MacBook Air M1 and an iPhone se3 at the same time. For a brief moment, it was possible to get both a new iPhone and new apple laptop for $1300 bucks total in the 2020s.

They got rid of the MagSafe!? My 2015 MBP is still holding up like it's only a year old but I know the end will eventually come. Hopefully Apple puts the MagSafe back

They got rid of it in the 2016 MBP design but brought back a new version with the current design, which came out late 2021

To be fair there were a couple of years where I dramatically decreased my usage. Now that I have it at work 5 days a week I know the end must not be far off.

Plus this internal 256gb ssd is wayyyyyyyyyyyy too small and last I checked it just wasn't worth paying for the 512. I basically live off of my external drives

I think the Air now has MagSafe again, just not on the case model. 🤦🏻‍♂️
