Here are the first 23 things you need to do with your M3 MBA: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hp6bYmpuba6Gnrs Which color do you prefer: Midnight or Silver?

[@BrianClarkpharmd]

Midnight for sure

[@BrandonButch]

@@BrianClarkpharmd now that it attracts less fingerprints, I love midnight

[@techwithtyler20]

Midnight until gold comes back. Starlight isn’t as slick as the previous (rose) gold of the M1. I have the 14 inch M1 Pro NotchBook Pro in Space Gray. Not sure why the Pro isn’t yet available in Midnight or any shade of gold.

[@jeysmoothies]

Midnight

[@judyrico7290]

Midnight is my favorite color however the starlight is pretty

[@judethat]

I got the 13” Starlight M3 16/512 as an upgrade from my 2015 12” MacBook and the difference in all aspects is amazing, the screen seems so much bigger and the battery life is really good. Worthy upgrade.

[@abhignapm]

Thank you so much for this video 🙌🏻 I’m in a dilemma on whether to get MacBook Air M3 15inch or iMac 2023 24inch. I don’t know whether 8gb would be enough for studying/ppt/excel/web browsing etc. Will be waiting for the comparison video🙌🏻😀

[@terrym3837]

Waiting for mine to arrive it replaces a 2012 intel Air which has been retired. I had been saving up for it so i decided to go 13 in midnight with 16gb and 512 ssd it will be a big upgrade for sure.

[@Msal19]

For the longest time, I used to think the bigger the screen the better. Having to use the M1 and the M2 MacBook Air at work has really made me appreciate the portability and the power of the Air. 13-inch all-day!

[@kaitlynpowell5294]

I bought the 13 in MacBook Air m3 in starlight. It was hard to decide between the 13in and 15in. I have a 2017 MacBook Air (intel). I’ve seen that these MacBooks are smaller than the one I currently have. I just hope it’s not as small as it looks.

[@jakedunlap8809]

Great review! Those computers are so simple to set up! I had thought about switching to Mac desktop, but the IT guy that I have known for a long time said to stick with windows. I also asked a friend of mine who is graphic design, and he said the same thing. I’m pretty simple on my computer. I just browse the web to email to Microsoft office and that is it. What products do you think Apple will launch Nexxt before the Apple iPad Pro and iPad Air launch? I am saving my money for a new iPad. I’ve had my current iPad for five years and it’s starting to show its age. I did try to use it as a computer for a few days when I was waiting on my new desktop to be delivered, but it did not do what I was hoping it would. There’s a big difference between using the desktop version of a website versus the mobile version. The same thing with the Microsoft suite of office applications.

[@laplthelullemann]

I went for the classic silver and also spect it up to 16GB memory and 512GB storage, but I got the 13“ rather than the 15 for maximum portability.

[@jutjub22]

Same, ordered Silver MBA M3 16/512, before I always used MBP, but now only bigger 14" is there. How are you satisfied. I mostly use laptop in lap, so weight, comfort is important. Does it get hot in lap too much?

[@laplthelullemann]

@@jutjub22 nope, not hot in the lap at all, I guess that also depends on what you're doing with it, but with my use cases it gets slightly warm at most, but it stays cold most of the time when just doing easy tasks, I'm absolutely happy with it.

[@techwithtyler20]

Still don’t know what the accelerometer is used for/why the Pro doesn’t have it (or does the M2/M3 have it now?). Hopefully the increased use of recycled materials doesn’t mean no more New MacBook Smell (if it is in fact just from the materials and not a secret spray they put on).

[@janabosi2883]

I have M2 Air 13 inch 2022 model and I have voice isolation and wide spectrum mic modes exactly like this M3, so you were wrong by saying previous Air models did not have that. That midnight color looks exactly like mine as well. Great review anyways.

[@oliverniehaus7159]

Great that dual monitor support was brought to the MacBook Air and will be coming to the base m3 macbook pro. I understand the software limitations of not being able to run two monitors and the built in display at the same time, but why must the lid be closed? I own an apple vision pro and when I use mac virtual display it blacks out my screen but I can keep using the trackpad and keyboard. Why not do the same thing for the m3 air and pro? Black out the laptop screen if connected to two external monitors but don't require the lid to be closed. That way people can still use the keyboard and trackpad and don't need to get an external keyboard and mouse. Seems like an easy software change.

[@TechTalkAdrien]

Great video! My favorite is also midnight blue. Regarding the screen size, for video editors, nothing beats an external screen (or two) anyway, so I would definitely go with the 13 inch with 16gb RAM.

[@hzhang1028]

Which keyboard is more comfortable for typing? Does the 15-inch has more spaced gap between the keys? Or the gaps are the same when comparing the two.

[@schizofennec]

all macs, even the 12" from 2016 have full sized keyboards, they are the same module across all models

[@Obikenobi93HD]

The M2 15 inch air I have it for over 5+ months now close to a year and it’s an absolute beast! I only maxed out the RAM to 24gb ram with 256gb SSD cause i don’t really see a difference with the speeds and I always don’t mind the waiting on the downloads anyway since I’m doing something else to keep me busy. Overall, I’m very satisfied with it! Use multiple tabs, have photoshop open while watching a stream or KZbin, pretty much have multiple applications open and the 24gb ram REALLY helps to not wear out the SSD swap or MacBook itself, absolute powerful machine!

[@xd1be9nb7v]

Wouldn’t the 16 gig ram, 512 gig storage 13 inch MacBook Air give off less heat than the base model? I was planning on ordering one next week, coming off a windows laptop.

I had a 13" m2 air for about 6 months before upgrading to the 18/512gb m3pro Pro. I travel with my laptop daily and the air was excellent for this. the Pro isn't much larger but the extra weight is noticeable. I feel like I could probably get away with the 15" air as well but it would be pushing my comfort limits footprint wise because the 16" is definitely larger than I would want to carry daily. the 14" is barely larger than the 13" air though when you consider that its actually 13.6" vs 14.2, but with slightly slimmer bezels on the pro. the difference in display size is basically un-noticeable in reality. PS.. really just opened the video to see if they finally color matched the usbc side of the magsafe cable like they did with the pro models. they didn't. also diappointing that the base air has a downgraded power brick. my m2 came with the 35W dual and I actually opted to keep it over the 70W single port one that came with my pro. Included it with the air when I sold it.

The benchmarks aren't an anomoly. You need to run them several times and take an average. They are within the margin of error. And also, there's no reason to disable filevault. Its a security measure so that nobody can get your data if you lose the laptop, literally no advantage to turning it off unless one day you wanted to unsolder the ssd to read the data on another machine in the event of the macbook not booting, which makes no sense better to use filevault and keep a backup somewhere safe. And the differences in the disk benchmark are due to the 512 model having 2 NAND chips and the 256 having one, that's why the write speed is lower.

[@BrandonButch]

256GB also has 2 NAND chips.

[@dan9700]

same as m2 one just little faster, dont get the whole unboxing

[@BrandonButch]

Because not everyone bought an M2 and might be curious about M3

Given there hasn’t been any mention of AI until the M3 was announced, I’m concerned my M1 Pro NotchBook Pro will miss out on macOS 15’s new AI features being announced at WWDC 2024. I’m sure for most features the baseline will still be M1 Pro for a while.

Hey Brandon, I just got a question, every year why do you spend millions of dollars on Apple products in just to test them in not keep them anymore. That sounds like a waste of money.

[@marilynwong9784]

Millions? What are you smoking bro?

[@blixiu]

you are really good in reading specs. WOW! I can't read, so this is great comparison video! [sarcasm]

[@marilynwong9784]

Nobody asked you for your opinion.

[@samuellazare3549]

YOU CAN'T COMPARE THEM 16gb ram vs 8gb ram is a big difference... The comparison is unfair.

[@samuellazare3549]

This is literally the worst review I've seen ever ... Pull yourself together man you have the machines ... Do stuff too much blabla not enough info. We can go to the site and read what you're saying.

[@Nogitsune_Yako]

"What's up, guys? My name is Brandon."... We know. We know your name without you calling it every single time. It's written under every single video (channel name).

Damn who hurt you 😢

[@yoru_nogitsune]

@@oscarludvig692no one. It’s just… unnecessary things are annoying.

[@oscarludvig692]

@@yoru_nogitsune maybe just just turn off a video on the internet if you get annoyed by a video you yourself clicked on and if its something that happens every video you knew that he would say who he is every video, if smashing your head towards the drywall hurts don't do it again and complain?

[@garybalatennis]

Jeeez. There’s nothing wrong with just saying your name at the start of your own video. Is it “repetition”?!? Heck we all do a little repetition in our daily lives!!! Brushing your teeth, puttin’ on your shoes, takin’ a shower, etc etc. Get over it, fella. Sometimes what “annoys” some people annoys me!!!

[@archerman1]

I still like my m1 except the screen. I think i cant stand the small screen anymore
