I’m buying just for educational purposes so it should work great
hey does this macbook offer backlit keyboard? or does any?
Can I use it to use DaVinci Resolve .And I cut 1080p film?
Ehh. Don’t buy an i5.
Is the iris 6100 better then UHD 617?
Huawei matebook looks beautiful with small bezels
I simply dont game on my workstation laptop as it shorten the lifespan due to inssuficient cooling.. so I dont think people should care about discrete gpu especially if only for work (office, adobe, etc). If you do 3d app then get the 15inch version. Remember there is a reason apple call it macbook air.
please buy me a new MacBook Air since you are fortunate enough to buy hehe
Which one would you say is best buddy,,I’ve always had windows but I hate it,,so I’m thinking of Mac,just not sure which one to get,,,,I want to start messing about with videos and uploading to YouTube plus other things 👍
Just ordered mine! Getting it in 9 days, I can't wait.
There isn’t a usb for god sake
I WANT THAT!
The most clever part of apple’s marketing is make you believe that this 2018 air is cheaper than an 2017 MacBook. Truth is that the i5 MacBook 2017 has same price as MacBook Air 2018 in same spec, because MacBook don’t have 128g version. But after all this MacBook Air has i5-8210y, which has same spec as i7-7y75. It’s kind of buying a 2017 MacBook with more weight and worse screen panel, with a few hundred dollars off, at the end of 2018. No one but apple can sell such laptop with trivial upgrade for years.
Students ?
To answer your question, the main reason one would go for the MacBook instead of the Air or the 13 inch pro, lack of fans. There are people who want that. Who want the silence.
Wait wait, first of all Industry Standard PP? lol
Second, you are comparing the two laptops but you are not using one of the major reasons one would buy an Apple computer, because it can't be run on Windows? That's the whole point!
Oh man, you were doing so well up to this point.
Take care.
I'm watching this on my new MacBook Air
Heavy gaming? Thunderbolt 3?
Use an eGPU
I just bought it. I recommend paying the extra $200 for 256 GB, it’s worth it. I had a 15 inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar, and it was a pain to travel with and hold in class. I’m glad I’m going back to an updated version of the Air. I used to edit 4K videos on the old Air and didn’t have issues, I’m sure I won’t with this one. Maybe just longer upload times but that’s fine.
thanks for the insight on the macbook air, i actually talked to Apple today about whats best for me, and they said its the macbook air which i agree. that so im saving up towards that macbook.
Which is good for medschool
I really don't care if this Macbook can render an 8K video just stop showing us that
Do you think I should buy the MacBook Air 2018 for Med school/university ? 👀
Soy de perú y no entendi jajaja
watching this from my 2018 macbook air
Hey, I’m planning to buy a laptop soon, and I would get a gaming laptop, but the MacBook seems to be the safest, and hardest to be hacked. I play games such as Sims 4, Cities Skylines and related games, so which Mac should I buy?
i already know the conclusion…get the hwawei mate x
I doubt I would use USB on a Mac anyway so should I get the 2018 Mac air instead
Should I go for this? I need a good laptop for college
Mac vs. Windows: Like for Windows comment for mac.
which laptop is most suitable for xcode
Can it run ae because im trying to make instagram (anime,amv)edits
Would you recommend for graphic design work?
Guys, I wanna let you know if you’re watching this, Best Buy has this with 128GB for only $999 instead of $1199!
Why is it bad to purchase 2017 model MacBook Air?
Thinkpad X1 Carbon wins.
Mec book eee
Hello, I’m a graphic designer & animator usually work on Cinema 4D & adobe after effects, would it be good for my particular work area? Please help!
Aaa…as much as I want one, the whole keyboard thing is worrying 🙁
do you guys think this will be a good laptop for coding?
Does this one have the same keyboard problem and screen problem with the pros ? Should i get this one or the macbook 2017 13inch base model? Am scared of the pro breaking
Would you recommend to use this for Adobe Premiere Pro and Lightroom?
Great review man! You just helped me make my decision. I’m gonna go with the air over the pro 😊
I recently unboxed the MacBook Pro on my channel!
Why the fuck would You game on a mac stupid
But the pro has major keyboard issues. How can you trust that?
I’m not a heavy, serious gamer, but I do like to play some games on Steam or build on Minecraft. Will this work well?
Could've been a great upgrade to my 2014 Air but the pricing leaves way to be desired. This is a glorified netbook but priced as an expensive gaming PC.
