    Carefully check the store credit conditions, including the list of brands (including Apple) for which you can’t use the credit.

    The offer that they had at EOFY had the in-store credit expiring in seven days from issue, which felt really short.

          Nothings confirmed until the Apple event is screening.

          This mindset is low IQ. It’s easier to get a part time job and earn an extra $1500 to enable one to upgrade to a more powerful base 16” M1 Pro NOW than to wait for a imaginary 15” MBA which probably won’t eventuate.

        • this is us on 07/07/2022 - 19:04

          I've read that the M2 MBA might have overheating issues (no fan), or be factory limited (to avoid overheating).

          For now, just speculation, but evidence-based speculation…

      • v7dal on 06/07/2022 - 20:56

        Significantly slower SSD speed compare to M1 model with same storage option

      • whatgift on 06/07/2022 - 20:47
        +3

        The SSD drives have been tested to be significantly slower than the previous M1 model, mainly because they are using a single 256GB drive as opposed to 2 x 128GB drives. Whether or not that's a big issue is a personal thing really, although spending the premium over the M1 is questionable.

        Personally, I wouldn't be buying that model since it is using a design and hardware (touch bar) than has been phased out of all other models. Some have speculated that the spec bump is purely to clear out excess inventory of parts for that model.

      • twocsies on 06/07/2022 - 20:47
        +4

        The 13" MacBook Pro M2 256GB SSD 8GB RAM has a half speed SSD compared to the M1. The fast SSD is supposed to make up for the memory pressure when you're low on RAM, which at 8GB is any time you do any workload, even using Chrome or Safari with a bunch of tabs. You get the worst of both worlds.

    • Richardc on 06/07/2022 - 23:16

      But Apple might use the same on the new stock M1.

    I have been holding off buying a laptop for a couple of months for the M2 MBA, but I am very tempted by price of the M1 MBP 14".

    No mention of RAM spec for the Mac Studios, and no indication of how long the shipping delay will be
    🙄

    • nyamatongwe on 07/07/2022 - 16:09

      Since they say 10% off, they match the base configurations on https://www.apple.com/au/shop/buy-mac/mac-studio so the M1 Max comes with 32 GB and the Ultra with 64 GB. Apple says 1-2 weeks shipping for the Max and 7-9 for the Ultra. Its likely that The Good Guys will be at least a little slower than Apple.

  • v7dal on 06/07/2022 - 21:07

    Deciding between mba m1 16gb 256gb $1619 or MacBook Air m2 16gb 256gb (If SSD isn’t half the speed like mbp m2) or just get the mbp 14. But that’s like $700 more than air m2 or $1100 than mba m1… I get it has nicer screen and internals but like I think I’ll be fine with air (shame mbp m2 has half the speed ssd). Guess I’ll wait for reviews out in two weeks

    • Dr Fruit on 06/07/2022 - 21:32

      imo not very many people actually need the 14"/16" MBPs with M1 pro/max chips. Most can't justify spending $700 more over the (already hyped) M2 MBA. My pick would be the M2 air.

      • v7dal on 07/07/2022 - 08:17

        Thanks! Yeah just waiting to see base ssd speeds

  • def80s on 06/07/2022 - 21:14

    Should I buy the m1 air at 1349 or do you guys think it will get lot cheaper when m2 drops? Not in a rush but thinking of pulling the trigger. Thanks

    • Dr Fruit on 06/07/2022 - 21:29
      +1

      If you absolutely need a laptop right now you can get it. When the M2 air drops M1 prices might go down a bit but don't expect much. I would say 12xx would be the expected range. Don't quote me on this, but I think Apple will continue to sell the M1 MBA alongside the updated M2 MBA? Or at least the major retailers will still carry them for a while to come.

      Similar to how they still continue to sell the M1/M2 MBP 13" alongside their updated M1 pro/max MBP 14"/16". The price of 13" MBP didn't really take much of a hit. People looking for more "entry-level" laptops are still going to be buying them. The updated M2 MBAs have RRPs that are a few hundred more = different target group.

      Just my 2 cents.

      • superroach on 06/07/2022 - 21:58
        +1

        Very good point re the base price of the M2 is a huge bump, enough that the m1 barely needs a drop.

        The M2 has the same one external screen limit, which for me makes it impractical for a full replacement of an laptop. Which is a shame because it's otherwise a great laptop

    • Pinchy on 07/07/2022 - 07:31

      M1 air will stay at $1499 even after the M2 releases

      • Dr Fruit on 07/07/2022 - 09:28

        You’re a chump if you buy the M1 Air for RRP at this point. They regularly go down to 1349 at major retailers. And have gone for even less and will continue to trend down to the 12xx range. We’re talking about price trends here, not RRP.

        • GregRust on 07/07/2022 - 09:45

          I bought the M1 Air a few weeks ago from Apple EDU store for $1294. Use supermarket GC discounts and get it for even less or with huge (20x) rewards points..

        • snep on 07/07/2022 - 13:52

          Dev work, couple of vms, photo editing, office tasks and general use. Maybe some casual gaming, although not a deal breaker — hence considering macs. 14-15“ 16:10 or maybe 3:2 preferred.

          I could probably get away with a lower end machine in terms of performance, but the overall package (screen, build, keyboard and trackpad, battery life) of the pro and xps appeal.

          • Rode on 07/07/2022 - 14:10

            @snep: Dev and photo editing would be great. I currently use an xps15 from 2017 but thinking of jumping to a macbook pro with the M1 chips.

            In terms of gaming it's not that good so I dont bother gaming on it.

      The battery life of the 14inch will be much shorter and more heat issue.
      Unless you're after the portability as priority I'd go with the 16inch.
