Thanks everyone out there who has replied me. It was very helpful
And I think I'll get one with M2 whenever it'll launch
SShreyas, 17 Apr 2022Any MacBook Air (M1) user out there? I wanted to know the real life thermal management of Air... moreM1 Air, 8GB user here. Not a heavy user but a few times I launched EVERY app I had on my Mac, about 50 at least, and it got slightly warm (which never gets warm in normal use) but not hot. What was really nice was that I could switch from one app to another without lag in OS animations, apps even games were running normally, and although I had dozens of tubs on three different browsers only a couple of them had to be reloaded. During this test at least 10 different media would play in the background like music on Apple app or YouTube videos. It was a crazy test but my Air handled everything exactly the same like running only the calculator app. Among the apps there was a 10 minute 4k movie running on DaVinci that never crashed and was playing normally each time I would return to it. Amazing....

I wanted to know the real life thermal management of Air... moreDon't know about heavy software but my m1 air is COLD. 🤣 I never had this problem. The laptop is cold as in sometimes it's uncomfortable at first cos it's cold. Even after 1h of the sims 4 playing at maxed out settings the laptop is still cold. Never ever throttled or got warm let alone hot.
That alone makes it the best laptop for casual use imo. No vents. No fans. Nothing to collect dust. Nothing to make noise. Can't comment on intense use tho
SShreyas, 17 Apr 2022Any MacBook Air (M1) user out there? I wanted to know the real life thermal management of Air... moreMy roommate has an M1 air. There was only one incidence of heating when he was charging the laptop, other than that there is no incidence of heating ever. The laptop stays cool even during summer and becomes unbearably cold to touch during the winters.
Useless power without x86 support.
Any MacBook Air (M1) user out there?
I wanted to know the real life thermal management of Air. I've seen reviews claiming it to be great. But, since there aren't any physical fans, I am a bit skeptical. I've used the Pro once but have no idea of Air.
My usage would be extremely heavy since I use several IDEs at once along with a VM and occasional use of some ML related tasks.
Thanks in advanced
Roddyz, 17 Apr 2022Apple needs to chill we don't need anything faster lmao.why not destroy and humiliate the competition? Might move other companies in the right direction.

Would be nice if Apple finally started to address retro-compatibility with this generation of chips. They should make them capable of running Intel-based applications, and maybe even PPC-based applications. (Lord knows, I put enough $$ into those) Tired of having to buy all new software every time Apple decides it's time to completely change architecture again. (like, every five years or so) How about it Apple? Can we finally have retro-compatibility?
Anonymous, 16 Apr 2022Nothing new, waiting for M8 with 64 cores in 1nm.1nm would be so fast and power efficient though, cant wait for cpu amd soc manufacturers made one.
swiggity swooty, 16 Apr 2022Buy a RTX 3090 instead if laptop manufacturers decided to make mobile 3090 then buy one.
you have to know, 16 Apr 2022all editors use macs so they dont wanna like to suffer with not responding message lolProfessional Video Editors & Content Creators need actual power even more than Gamers so that's wrong. Maybe the Editors you're referring are writing editors.
Anonymous, 16 Apr 2022You won’t find RTX3090 in a compact PC systemThen go for mobile rtx 3080
you have to know, 16 Apr 2022all editors use macs so they dont wanna like to suffer with not responding message loleditors work on windows not shitty mac
