MacBook Air M1 Differences

At the time of release (November 2020), Apple stated that the laptop was faster than 98% of PCs with Windows installed.

Battery life of up to 18 hours and heats up less than its competitors — that’s why it doesn’t have a fan or make noise.

Display with True Tone technology, which adjusts the color temperature to less strain the eyes.

Computer unlocking with fingerprint.

Use of a processor developed by Apple marked the end of an era — before using Intel chips.

Is it worth buying the MacBook Air M1?

MacBooks are best suited for those who work with photo editing, video, creation, or other tools that require a lot of the computer.

For the majority of Brazilians who use the computer for more basic tasks, perhaps investing this amount is not worth it.

However, if you are an Apple fan, the discount is a good opportunity to save a little, and the payment can still be made in ten installments without interest.
