Adam Kos Apple has started pre-sales of its hot new product among Mac computers. The MacBook Air M2 got a completely new design, but also a higher price tag. If you're eyeing it, definitely don't hesitate, as it's expected to sell out of stock soon, followed by a long wait. After all, MacBook Airs are Apple's best-selling computers.
Apple started its pre-sale of the current news on Friday, July 8 at 14 p.m. The price of the basic configuration, which offers an M2 chip with an 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 8GB of unified storage and 256GB of SSD storage, is CZK 36.

First owners
If you do not yet own a Mac computer but want to enter the desktop world of Apple, there are of course several options available. But if your priority is a portable device, you clearly have to exclude the Mac mini from your selection. So it is a trio of laptops – MacBook Air M1, MacBook Air M2 and MacBook Pro M2. For many, the basic Air will surely be enough, but it, like the MacBook Pro M2, still carries the old design, which Apple came up with in 2015 in the case of the 12" MacBook. The look of the MacBook Air M2 is based on the autumn MacBook Pros, and although it has a more angular body than the 2020 model, it looks really modern. This is evidenced by the innovative color variants, which were inspired by a number of iPhones or the Apple Watch.
The M2 chip
Mac owners with Intel
If you are the owner of a MacBook with an Intel processor, and the M1 chips have not yet enticed you, there is an opportunity to reach for the second generation ARM chip. Apple already has a trial run and focuses on performance and efficiency. If you don't need a work machine right away, you will be extremely satisfied with the Air M2. After all, he is also a clear worker who will cover a wide range of your workload.

12" MacBook owners
Although it looked like a promising future, Apple hasn't come out with a new 2016" model of its MacBook since 12. So, if you are used to its silent operation, when it lacks active fans, but its appearance is already eye-catching for you (the MacBook Air 2020 is also based on it), the novelty is intended for you. In addition, you get a larger display screen while maintaining minimal dimensions and weight. In addition, there is no indication that we should wait for another 12", so sooner or later you will have to "enlarge" anyway.
The design of the MacBook Air M2 will take your breath away
MacBook Air M1 (2020) owners
It's been a year and a half since Apple introduced the first computers with the M1 chip, among which was the MacBook Air. But whether it is necessary to change it after such a short time for this novelty is a question. Apple says the MacBook Air with M2 is 1,4x faster than its predecessor. If that's reason enough for you to upgrade, go ahead. For us, we have to say that performance is one thing, but design is another. So you might want to upgrade not just because of the chip used, but rather because of the present appearance. In addition, you will surely sell Aira with M1 well. The new Apple sells for 29 CZK.

Vratislav Holub MacBook Pro owners
If you still own MacBook Pros with Intel processors, you are probably more demanding users who need to take advantage of the benefits that the Pro series brings. Here, however, it is up for consideration whether you will really get any benefits by switching to an M2 MacBook Pro rather than if you reached for a MacBook Air with an M2, even if perhaps in a higher configuration. At the same time, of course, the higher 14 and 16" MacBook Pros are also in the game, even if they cost different money. Here you really have to answer for yourself.
