Reviews
Apple MacBook Air 15" with M2 Chip 8-Core CPU/10-Core GPU 8GB-RAM 256GB-SSD - Midnight (2023) is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 6.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Immediate and long-term advantages A long-time coming, my first Apple device. Yes, more expensive than Windows, but already I'm grateful I could finally make the change. Three immediate advantages: silent, instant start-up and very thin and light. The other advantages will be apparent as time goes on and it's still working well in a few years (which has not been the case with Windows devices).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very happy, excellent computer Very happy, does just what I need it to. Previously a Pro user but needed it something a bit smaller this time. Don't feel like I'm missing anything, love the thicker/heavier design.

I am looking for an apple laptop which will 1) Help me to dictate a long write up. 2) create documents with pictures 3) Create vlogs/podcasts/video clips for my own speeches. Which base model should I choose which will give me these at minimum cost?

Asked by: Sunny
Thanks for your question. This model will be able to perform everything task listed above comfortably, due to the processing power and graphical capabilities. The Macbook range is pretty high spec in terms of capability and functionality, and all in the range would be suitable given the workload. Trust this helps!
