Should you buy the MacBook Air M1 in 2023 for ₹78,990?
In 2023, getting a good laptop is confusing, not difficult, but damn confusing because of the variety of laptops available in other markets. I tried hundreds of laptops in the last few years but the Apple laptops have their own reliability and trust I would ask someone to buy say a MacBook Air is a peaceful suggestion for me personally.
The biggest con of Windows laptop is not having control over software and hardware, the lack of optimizations in future make these laptops incompetent in future. This is not the case with a MacBook which receives timely updates that actually make them better with time.
While Apple launched the new MacBook Air 2022 powered by an M2 chip last year and while it has got its own price decline, and is available for only Rs.1lakh, the former 2020 MacBook Air is still up for grabs. To surprise, the Cupertino giant increased the pricing of its older MacBook Air 2020 with M1 chip to Rs.99,990 at the start of 2022.
However, prices of the MacBook Air M1 have already fallen to a stable ₹85,990, and at each platform, there are multiple offers to reduce the pricing even further thanks to bank offers. Now, should you buy the older MacBook Air in 2023? Well, considering at this price falls in the Windows laptop category, the older MacBook still holds a good value?
With years of updates, rigorous optimizations with Apple’s own hardware, superb battery life and decent performance with M1, it’s still a good laptop for ₹80k.
