I just bought another Air after returning a 2016 "Pro". I've been using my 2015 Pro for the last 3 years, and worried about it breaking down so wanted a spare. I've had 2 of them before and they are the best machines I've ever owned.
If Apple released a MBA with retina display and 16gb of ram with the same battery life, I've pay at least 2x the current price for it.
- ppeetteerr 9y agoThe new Pros are effectively Airs in weight but not in battery. What about the 12inch MacBooks? Aren't they effectively Airs minus the ports (a dongle could solve that problem).
- comstock 9y agoIn my experience the 12inch Macbook is not an Air replacement. The CPU is super-slow, and the keyboard is very poor (maybe I just got a bad one I don’t know... but I find it almost useless).
- Finbarr 9y agoI had one of those too, and ended up returning it. I have large hands and found the form factor very uncomfortable. The CPU is also slow and the keyboard sucks (particularly disliked the arrow key configuration).
