Apple defines its restrictions on harmful substances, including definitions for what Apple considers to be “free of”, in the Apple Regulated Substances Specification. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates with the exception of AC power leads in India, Thailand (for two-pin AC power leads) and the Republic of Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. MacBook Air is designed with the following features to reduce its environmental impact: 5 See the MacBook Air Product Environmental Report Testing conducted by Apple in August and September 2021 using JetStream 2, MotionMark 1.2 and Speedometer 2.0 performance benchmarks. Tested with pre-release Safari 15 and latest stable versions of Chrome, Microsoft Edge and Firefox at the time of testing on: 13-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M1 and pre-release macOS Monterey, and Intel Core i7–based PC systems with Intel Iris Xe Graphics and Windows 10 Pro; iPad Pro 12.9-inch (5th generation) units with pre-release iPadOS 15, and Intel Core i7–based PC systems with Intel Iris Xe Graphics and Windows 10 Pro; and iPhone 12 Pro Max with pre-release iOS 15, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 888-based smartphones with Android 11. Devices tested with a WPA2 Wi‑Fi network connection. Performance will vary based on usage, system configuration, network connection and other factors.

However, it may make the smaller capacity aircraft unsuitable for an airline that requires a greater seating capacity. Exactly the same logic applies to your unwarranted and unnecessarily disparaging criticism of the M1 Macbook.

I recommend that all reviewers update with a strong warning that these laptops don't work if you need 2 external displays (like most of us who work from home and care about productivity). My old MacBook Air supported two independent 4K monitors. The new M1 machines (both Air and Pro) are junk that dropped this support. I believe the biggest costs for a chip fab are startup costs - no matter what processor vendors would like you to believe. Design and fab startup are expensive - but once you start getting decent yields, the additional costs are silicon wafers and QA. The more of these units Apple can move, the lower the per unit cost and the better the profits. Apple declared its M1 chip would enable all-day battery life, and the company has hit that mark. On the Tom's Guide battery test (web browsing at 150 nits), the new MacBook Air lasted an epic 14 hours and 41 minutes (while the new MacBook Pro hit 16:32) — times that beat both the ZenBook 13 (13:47) and XPS 13 (11:07). The OLED XPS 13 (7:59) put in a much lower time. I'm not sure how much Apple paid all these reviewers -- I haven't seen a single review yet that points out this fatal flaw in the new generation. Or was Apple not honest with reviewers when describing the specs?Changing processing architectures for such an established ecosystem is not an easy task -- it requires a lot of work. Not just from Apple, but from their developers as well. But the change from Intel's x86 to Apple's own ARM-based M1 SoC has been relatively smooth thus far. Both new and legacy apps run quite well on the Air M1 and you can even flawlessly run iOS apps, which is always appreciated. Speaking of apps, the performance gains with the M1 are simply phenomenal. It simply crushes Intel in all areas and offers an extremely smooth performance even under the heaviest system load for a thin laptop. macOS Big Sur is also a fantastic operating system with a redesigned interface and great performance. In short, this Air model feels a lot more like a Pro. Impressive Battery Life, Display and Audio

The displays on the 13-inch MacBook Air (M2) and 15-inch MacBook Air have rounded corners at the top. When measured as a standard rectangular shape, the screens are 13.6inches and 15.3inches diagonally (actual viewable area is less). Whilst I understand that this machine is one that doesn't suit your needs, I strongly object to the statements you made that I have quoted above. It's not about CPU vs GPU, and not even about "RAM". The Apple Silicon, if I do not mistake, is both CPU and GPU, hence all the circuits which linked a CPU with a GPU on the old machines, air almost more here anymore (except considering the angstrom-sized transistors in themselves), and hence, the latency for the communication between them (and occasionally the Joules effect, but it is counterbalanced with more difficult thermal dissipation), the latency, I wrote, will be incredibly decreased. varase said:In fact, I suspect that Apple - once they recover their R&D costs - will be pushing the prices of these machines lower while still maintaining their margins - while competing computer makers will still have to pay Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, and nVidea for their expensive processors, whereas Apple's cost goes down the more they manufacture. Competing computer makers may soon be demanding lower processo prices from the above manufacturers so they can more readily compete against these models.When Apple was near the failure thank to the copied Windows 95, nobody noticed it; interesting. (And Apple was winning a complaint against Microsoft, who warned about to stop Office if the complaint continued; that's why it stopped). eraoul said:The M1 does not support dual monitors, so it's a major regression from the Intel versions previously available.
