Watching it on my Mac m2 starlight 😄
Is everything good with m2 MacBook Air?
@@kelovthvamsi yes! It’s working amazing I don’t know about others but haven’t even experienced the heat issue as well maybe it’s because of the cold weather or just in general, either was it’s working perfectly.
What is your storage of your MacBook Air M2 ?
Does it get a lot of fingerprints? Can you see it on the starlight color?
@@casvanarkel the starlight color doesn’t really attract finger prints that’s more the midnight color. But i do like the midnight color
this is the best unboxing video for the m2 macbook I've watched and I've seen many ❤❤ I love the genshin gameplay at the end
I’m getting my first MacBook REALLY soon and I am SO excited
13 MBA starlight here, you chose the best color and you’ll not get tired of it
love the aesthetic ! >3>
Thank youuuuuu!!!
Watching it on my Macbook M2 Space Grey. By the way, your videos are very nice. I have the iPhone 14 Pro Max Deep purple and the same Macbook. I'm a new subscriber! ❤
I’ve watched videos on base model M2 Air and it’s actually slower than M1 in some cases. Anyways, it’s still a great laptop, so congratulations!
it's true that in some cases I have heard people say it's slow however I don't much on it other then school work and some editing and I don't have any problems with it being slow
@@springinmai plus you have the entire upgraded design which in my opinion makes it better than the m1 air. anyways m2 14 pro ex m2 air user here, you'll love it
Its faster in computational power but the only thing that is slow is its ssd because its unified unlike the base m1 but the difference in read and write speeds is inconceivable anyway so u should be good@@springinmai
I just got my new Macbook Pro M2 13 In and trying to install Genshin until I saw your video. Thanks for the tip.
No problem! I'm glad my video was helpful!!
I did not know you could put Genshin on a mac....it's all over now! I'm installing it on my pro RIGHT NOW! Thank you so much!
I did not install genshin directly on my mac I play through a software called GeForce Now it's an iCloud-based gaming software
@@springinmai Oh yeah I know. As soon as I saw this video i did the same thing but it was a tad bit too laggy for me :(. I guess my connection isnt good enough for it.
@@SonniiTea ya it can be laggy at times but it works great other than that
Watching it on my M2 starlight too
I see Vante, I clicked it🤓
😊👍🏻💻Starlight
FINALLY SOME WHO PLAYS GENSHIN IN 2022 ❤ ❤❤❤❤
Do people not play genshin anymore?
@@springinmai bo
Oml idk what this comment is so many people play genshin still lol
@@okwhat6844 I literally love genshin so much
Personally I love the M1 Macbook Air than the M2 MacbookAir and I LOVE you more than that too!!!
AWWW I LOVE YOU more!!!!!!
@@springinmai me too!
Why?
Hi! I also got the macbook air m2. It's so beautiful! Quick question, have you experienced tiny (needle size, or sand size) dents on your screen? I wonder because it's been just less than a month and I have one dent.
Lmfaoo the Tae fanart is so pretty
Indeed it’s way too beautiful
nice
Watching it on my MacBook midnight 🤓
love to hear that ;)
Hi, thank you for this very satisfying unboxing and set up. What do you think of the M2 after using it for a few days ? I’m currently hesitating between the m1 and the m2 :(
I honestly love it! I was also hesitant this is my first ever MacBook so everything was very satisfying to me and it’s super fast although it does get a little heated during some video editing and uploading but nothing too bad. I can’t compare it to the M1 because I’ve never used it but the M2 is supposed to have a better performance. If your looking to save money then I suggest looking into the M1 or if money is not a problem and your look for a slightly better MacBook then the M2 should be a good option too. It’s all gonna depend on what your gonna use it for. But I would recommend the M2 air it’s really pretty and I haven’t found one problem with it so far. I hope this was helpful!!
@@springinmai thank you very much for taking time to reply. I’ll think a bit more before choosing. Btw, I’m subscribing !!
I can feel you 🥲. I just ordered a m2 air 16 gb a week back. I was hesitant at first but I decided that all the little upgrades like brightness , design, magsafe, the chip itself is worth the extra.
If you don't mind spending a little more , get the m2
If you are on tight budget get the m1.
@@jaspereon9020 thank you for the feedback. I heard there was a problem with the M2 tho I can't really explain it as it's too complicated for me ? Also for the budget issue, I'll just buy it in the US and have it sent to me as the prices have a 200€ gap
Hello, you should surely go for the m2 version as the M2 is up to 25% faster and efficient than M1 and the read speeds on their drives is significantly faster with more display area and slimmer bezels and a nice camera but if you are in a budget below $800 then you can get the m1 that’s still a nice laptop for normal work and it can also handle 4K edits and pro stuff pretty well, you can find an m1 for cheap on Apple and even cheaper on bestbuy or Walmart.
I am looking for a sign to make my decision and heard anya! ❤
LONG LIVE ANYA!!!!
Don’t worry about your primos bc me and my homies all have only like 576
I’m a student and I need something this year and I was looking at laptops and I think I’ll get the M1 MacBook Air and the only reason that I’m getting that 1 is Bcz it’s on sale for 950€
Hi there, was the wondering what specs did you get? 8gb or 16gb of ram and 256gb or 512gb of
Space?
I just talked to my dad tonight about helping me get the MacBook Pro 16 inch 2022 from Best Buy and so he said that on Sunday we can go there to look at it and see if we can get a good price for it on Black Friday
Wonderful!! good luck!
@@springinmai My dad said that this Saturday since I’m off work and after he gets off work at 2:30 we can go to Best Buy then
Which website you choose the wallpaper from?
I’m trying to save money for a MacBook Pro 16 inch I really want one I think I’m gonna do the Apple Card installments
Hey Andres thanks for this video!For help,my honourable friend ,there a user or an old one?Thank you🙂
Hello, I really loved your video 😍
What do you Think of the MBA after two months, I really want to get it but my budget will only allow me to get the base model and I heard they were problems with the 8/256gb speed and heating.
Hello sorry about the late response but it's been working wonderfully for me the last 3 months I really love it It's my first MB so I can't really compare it to the other models.
There is some heating when uploading videos from the editing software to the drive but other then that there is no issue
I have heard many great things about the base model and that it isn't that different from the M2.
Hello! Thank you for great video, i have a question, does genshin run well on m2 air and how about m1 air or m1 pro?
Does it important to increase to 16 gb ram and 512 ssd? What you can recommend?
And if i play and work at home on my 240 hz monitor will be important to buy pro version with 120 hz for better feel of work pc + laptop or air with 60 enough and pretty comfort?
I will much appreciate for reply and advices
Hi!! sorry about the late response. I can't really say if genshin runs well on the m2 or m1 MacBooks because I play it on cloud-based gaming software. I have the 8-Core CPU, 8-Core GPU, and 8GB Unified Memory, with the 256GB SSD Storage on my MacBook air and it's been very good at running video editing, and heavy uploads. I don't use monitors but I'm planning on buying one soon and I think I might be buying the HP - 21.5" IPS LED Full HD FreeSync Monitor. I have seen a lot of people use that type of monitor with their macs so I'm supposing that it's good. I can't really recommend you anything I'm by no being an expert, this is just my review of things that I have tried. I'm sorry if this isn't helpful! and if you still have questions please feel free to reach out!!!
@@springinmai that all good bro ty for your reply! I appreciate so much info feedback! So you have basic 256+8gb m2 air one yes? And all editing and programs works well for you?
@@Slayer2ez It really depends on what you’re going to use it for, if you only want to play Genshin Impact with 4K video editing and normal work then 8gb and 256gb will be enough for you but if you are planning on to play some more games for example windows based games or using parallels or anything with 3D design then you should at least get 16gb with 512ssd along with the 10 core gpu version, other than that for basic gaming and everything this is a pretty amazing laptop and you can’t take the advantage of 120hz as it doesn’t have a 120 display but it will give you 120hz on your monitor.
@@girls812 hi ty for reply! You sure that 16+512 and 10 cores wil be able to run it windows based? As i checked there almost no big difference about fps in games with more ssd size and cpu better just like few percents more perfomance
Also i meant mac pro version use 120 hz maybe it worth to get coz of that but i do not do 3 d editing and not sure about future i just editing my videos from games and real life, it capturing on logitech webcam
Also does any chance i can use sony vegas or adobe premier for free on mac?
@@Slayer2ez Yw, Yes upgrading to 512 won’t give you a major boost in games but it’s comes handy when you do edits or use editing apps , as the 256 have 40% slower read and write speeds, Macs are not intended for gaming but if your budget allows you then you can go for pro they are always the best deals and they can run games on pretty good settings when played at 1080p , giving you on average 50-60 FPS for base models , you will need to run most of the games using parallels as only few are available natively on macs including Shadow of tomb raider and RE 8 but still if you don’t plan to do heavy editing or 3D work then buy the 8+216 and get a value console like Xbox series s it will be still cheaper than the whole mac setup and u can easily play games at 4K. And Sony Vegas isn’t yet compatible with macs and it doesn’t work even with parallels, Adobe costs some money, you can try luma fusion for basic edits or Final Cut Pro for professional edits. Final Cut Pro is by far the best editing app yet. So it depends on your needs , Final Cut Pro is not really cheap so always look for alternatives. If you have any questions then write to me on my Instagram @selfcreteen.
I want a MacBook Pro so bad I’m trying to get my dad to help me
Hi. Where did you get your wallpaper?
is it difficult to play genshin on mac? do you keyboard while playing or just use the trackpad only?
no, it's not difficult but I do use a mouse or keyboard sometimes if I'm playing on my desk otherwise I just use the macs keyboard and trackpad.
Hi, does it overeat a lot when doing basic tasks. CZcams, streaming movies and (if you're a student too) doing homework? I know it doesn't have a fan so I'm sure it can have a tendency to get warm.
Hello, I'm using MBA M2 16gb/256gb mainly using for Java software development and I can assure you it will run just fine it's amazing device and you won't find any problem when doing some basic tasks!!
@@hardisyafrizal6467 thank you for the feed back. I got it two weeks ago and it’s been working great! But hey if it can handle coding software then it sure is a beast huh?
@@fromthemoonandmybed sure it is
for basic tasks definitely no, but when you play games or push it more it starts to get a little warm, but definitely not too noticeable. It rarely gets to a point where you can actually feel how hot it is on your lap and need to take it off.
How did you download genshin impact? I tried but I couldn't download it in my mac m2
is genshin running smoothly?
Wait so you say you can play genshin on Mac without it getting any lag?
hi!! can i have the link to the wallpaper you ended choosing?
for some reason, it keeps deleting my comment for the wallpaper link but you can find It on my Pinterest
Is it 60fps on m2?
It’s the very audible gasp and “wow” for me 🤭🥹
Girl, is that really starlight? I also got mine in starlight and it looks plain like silver.
Ikkk it's so hard to tell because in some lighting it looks sliver, but it's not. I personally like the color
Watching this on my Mac M2 starlight rn LMAO
is it good for playing genshin?
how you play genshin in mac?
Как ты скачала ген шин импакт сними видео пожалуйста
Hey! Was wondering like in Windows they have Microsoft office for presentations and word documents... What alternatives does Mac have? I have always had Windows and was deciding to have a Macbook.
Microsoft office is also available on macs and works better on macs then on windows.
@@girls812 Thanks!😊
yeah, what they said! int he store where i bought my macbook air m2, they asked if i want to get my own microsoft acc, and i figured i didnt have one of my own yet so i purchased an account from them, it costed more money but it was a lifetime subscription so its worth it! My tip when mking an acc is to just lie about your age and make it above 18 (if ur a minor) so that you wont encounter problems like that annoying captcha 'prove you are not a robot' tests.
hows the performance so far?
pretty good i use it mostly for editing, doing school work, and streaming and so far it's been working wonderfully
how you get genshin for mac? please
I play through 'GeForce Now'
Hii, I've just gotten the MacBook 13 M2 . Even though I do not play genshin, I wanted to download roblox but at the store they told me strictly not to download any games, since it's only supposed to be used for office purposes. Are you experiencing any issues while gaming? And if so, what kind of issues do you encounter?
Who told you that?
Dumbest thing I have heard. It is not strictly for office purposes. It’s a computer and you use it for what you want. Probably by now you have already figured it out though
How many hours does your macbook battery last?
I think it’s about 15 hours?? Might be super wrong tho
how did you download genshin impact on there?
I didn't download it I used Geforce Now to play genshin
which geforce membership do you have?
the free one
@@springinmai yayy someone else also plays with geforce free membership like me:D
@@pennyyiscool hehe I'm too broke for a membership 😔
how do you get genshin on your mac
I used a gaming software called 'GeForce Now'
@@springinmai Please tutorial
Does the its lagg when playing games?
Who tf plays on mac? Its for productivity.
is playing genshin on the macbook safe?
I'm not sure if downloading genshin on mac is safe or not. I have genshin on 'Geforce Now' it's a cloud base gaming service and you get 1 hour of free gaming every time you play or you could pay and have longer gaming sessions. It's pretty safe and I recommend it.
Yes it’s safe because It’s the same game that you find in your mobile phone as the m2 chipset is a ARM based chip so that means it’s just a really big and powerful version of your phones chip, it’s more efficient than the desktop based chips and you can easily run some beefy applications on it.
how do u play genshin on mac using ge force pleasee i don't wanna use bootcamp cuz it takes half the storage
it's really simple just download Geforce off their website and login it and genshin should pop up with a bunch of other games if not just look it up and it should show up
I’m planning to go in college for the year 2023-2024 , and I want a MacBook bc I will focus my studies on data. I would like to know if the Mb air m2 is enough or I have to take a different model ?
I'm also going to college for the year 2023, but so far this Mac air has been great for all kinda of school work. If you could maybe try waiting until apple releases a new MacBook for 2023 and see if it's better compare to the 2022 models. Or you could just buy the 2022 models after they release the 2023 bc they might be a little cheaper.
