This usually goes for $1529.99 in store but their promotion gives you an instant $91 rebate.
Not as good as Mwave's $1435.00 but for anyone with memberships and giftcards to burn this may be convenient for you. Maybe Officeworks could play nice?

    It's the same price at Officeworks/JB/HN/GG right now?

    • jian on 30/12/2020 - 17:24

      JB $1439.10
      Officeworks $1439

      JB's promo will finish soon
      Officeworks can price beat if you get a friendly sales assistant, for sure.

    From Costco's item description:

    Up to eight GPU cores
    8GB of unified memory

    Also inb4 the memory lament:

    Yup, it's 8 gigs of unupgradable memory, but it's better than your laptop's 8 gigs of memory.

      it's better than your laptop's 8 gigs of memory.

      it's better than your laptop's —8 gigs— 16gb of memory.

    • Anonymous101 on 30/12/2020 - 19:43

      I thought 8GB GPU Core only came with 16GB MacBook Air.

        Nopes with the 512GB SSD. The description could be wrong.

    Honestly 8Gb is a killer on these, and the only way to get 16gb is apple direct with no discounts

    I find these too small. smaller than older ggens of mbas..

      ..It's the same size screen (and keyboard, I'm pretty sure.)

      They just got rid of the huge useless bezels

        it's not. I had both

          Mate it's a 13.3 inch screen in each. It's not some subjective thing.

            @Merlict: still smaller than just the size stated.

              @ilove: Of all the specs to lie about, why would they lie about one that anyone can measure with a ruler?

    While the whole "Its Apple, you don't have to worry about upgrading memory" is very convincing, I'm still not paying for only 8GB of on-board RAM, on a PC no less.

      I am using one for last few days. You will be surprised how fast it is. Also the battery is amazing, using it for 3 days now after charging once. 8GB on M1 MacBook is definitely not same as 8GB on windows PC or even intel Macs.

      I also have 16GB MacBook Pro from work and the M1 MacBook Air beats that in every aspect.

    Is it difficult to use a VPN on these back to India?

    • b0nd on 30/12/2020 - 19:17

      Nope, works well.

      And depends what you’re using - a shitty free/cheap VPN might have issues but services like PIA, Nord, surfshark etc works well.

    Is the Costco warranty an upgrade on standard apple coverage?

    • mouski on 30/12/2020 - 20:57

      It’s 90 days return for any reason so I’d say yes. For the first 90 days at least.

      • Kanjus on 30/12/2020 - 21:17

        And warranty? Used to get 2 years
