I bought the Apple 2022 MacBook Air with the M2 chip two weeks ago, and I was pleasantly surprised at the price. I primarily use it for web browsing and software development, and I don't have many programs on it. Setting it up was seamless, especially since I have other Apple products. I encountered no issues during the setup.
The Midnight color looks fantastic and is the best quality Air I've ever used. The display and sound are great. While I haven't tried video processing, the M2 chip performs wonderfully. It's noticeably faster than my Mac mini with the M1 chip. I love the size and weight; it's perfect for bringing to the coffee shop. It also seems more durable than my girlfriend's 2020 Air.
The battery lasts at least 8 hours on a single charge, and I can use it at work for a significant portion of the day without needing to recharge. The new charging port style secures via a magnet, which works fine, though it could be a bit stronger.
Overall, I'm thrilled with the price, especially since I've never had a Mac under $1,000. I'm very happy with this purchase and give it 5 stars.
