While I grant you the upgradability argument. From a practical perspective, I see iPhones and MacBooks being used for a way longer time than windows laptops or android phones. Part of that is being more expensive but I don't think that is the whole story. I suspect the M1/M2 will prolong the lifespan of the MacBook even more.
- tcmart14 3y agoI really hope your last sentence is true. I've been running a Macbook Air M1 for awhile now and it feels just as snappy as the day I got it. In 15 years and numerous machines (intel macbooks, lenovos, dells, HPs, etc) , I've never been able to say that about any of them. However, the unfortunate part is, while I believe the hardware will be able to last awhile, it all comes down to the what the business heads at Apple see as the EOL day for supporting newer versions of macOS on it.
