I’m thinking of getting a MacBook air (but I’ve never had an apple product before). Will that last me at least 4 years? Or should I just get a desktop?
What are you going to use the laptop for?
Although the MacBook Air is a wonderful laptop it hasn’t been updated in years. The screen in a poor resolution without IPS technology, meaning you will have horrible viewing angles. I currently have been recommending Microsoft Surface line of products to many of my friends and they love it. I think you should check out the new Surface Laptop. Its really thin, much thinner than the MacBook Air, and it comes in a 4 colors. If you don’t want a Windows PC I really can’t recommend any of Apple’s laptops at the moment mostly because they are pricey and only come with a USB Type C ports, which most college students don’t have anything that can actually take advantage of. This port will also mean that you will need to carry adapters if you wish to plug in a flash drive or print from a wired printer. Hope this helps!
That’s really helpful! Thank you so much:)
