Comment from : @yokainojutsu

I just got a 2015 Macbook Pro with retina display and it worked great and I was easily able to upgrade it to Monterrey It was ordered for my girlfriend Kathy & I know she will enjoy using it when I go up to her apartment Friday and get it to access her new modem
Comment from : @georgesenda1952

They want one bc it will run Linux very well
Comment from : @SamWicker-su7rp

I bought a 2015 model - in 2015 and it's running just fine I did have Sequoia via Open Core Legacy Patcher Got tired of it continually wanting to update, which is not easy with Open Core Legacy Patcher, so I down-graded to Monterey and it's working supurbly, for what I have to do, as well as my daily driver, an M2 13" MAcBook Air
Comment from : @musicofnote1

You can find m1 for 400-500 That was my choice, and even though it is five years old now it holds up really good
Comment from : @ml210993

I still have the 2009 17 inch MacBook Pro and ISTG the screen on it is SO MUCH better than on this 2017 MacBook Air
Comment from : @jbgs1

“2017” lol… my 2015 is still kicking strong It’s not my main machine but keyboard is still nice and syncs my iPods just as fast as any of my other machines brLast security update was 6 months ago so 2025 will be the last year I let it do much online anything other than known secure big corpo connections Home WiFi only just in case
Comment from : @TheGelatinousSnake

It is a fantastic laptop for linux :)

The number of people buying any Cr*pple product is a measure of humanities intelligence in decline, not of a 'good' notebook
Comment from : @elmariachi5133

Lol I own 2brbrbrYou completely missed the mark on why people like thembrbrFirst of all you can run legacy patcher and be up to datebrnormal USB and SD cardsbrBattery new is goodbrbrActually I found it funny you mention video editingbrbrThis is actually a more capable device to editbrYou can put a 8tb nvme on itbrAnd so it's easier to edit than in modern laptops with a 256gb as hard drivebrI would say modern base model Macs are unsuitable for video editing long videos because of their limited hard drivebrSure you can pay apple 20k to get a 8tb laptopbrOr how about you spend that money on prostitutes?

Will it's passed on the final cut pro experience? Lag's and everything? 😊
Comment from : @southeastboy4634

I am from Mauritius and I got this for $290 USD locally Just updated it to MacOS Sequoia 153 via Opencore Legacy Patcher Boy, this machine rocks!
Comment from : @JudeRabbani

to be fair this old mac air is still great Just pulled mine out of storage after the screen on my mac air m1 broke for the second time, and i have to say that the typing and browsing experience is great The keyboard feels smoother and the bigger footprint of the laptop is more comfortable for bigger hands The screen resolution is noticeably worse compared to the retina on the m1, but for school work, no problem Build quality is great also
Comment from : @janchrherumpedersen2796

I still a 2015 MacBook probrThese are not computers that feel old after a year They last
Comment from : @ChristopherReid-i1d

I have the i7 22Ghz 8GB model I think I paid way less than $300 on ebaybrbrThe hard disk can be upgraded to 960GB (2 suppliers) The SD slot can be filled with a permanently mounted flush fitting 256GB card (only USB2 speed sadly) A new battery is like $35 bucksbrbrUsing Open Core patcher allows running Squoia 1521 and continuing with few if any real limitations Installation and upgrade were trivialbrbrThe machine is indestructible, best design ever from Apple For people with the machine constantly, and couldn't care leas about watching 4K videos while doing real work, it's hard to beat

im watching this using the same 2017 macbook
Comment from : @mohammedsageer459

Macbook air is the best product apply makes I recently switched to MacBook pro and I really like it But before that I used to use M1 Air It is just awesome at everything at it's price range Very affordable not overpriced like other apple products I can blindly recommend a macbook air to anyone
Comment from : @zhh174

LOVE the glowing applethe reason I haven't parted with my 2014 MBA (although it rarely gets turned on these days)
Comment from : @thomasdovi851

just use open core to upgrade the software
Comment from : @antaripghosh102

Just got a bargain of a 80$ 2015 macbook air Man this would have killed with a m1 processor, still usable Love the form factor
Comment from : @lyubo

I bought a 2015 Macbook air new back in 2015 I have never replaced anything on it, and despite having over 900 cycles on the battery I still get over 8hours of screen on time
Comment from : @michaelchristopher8266

releasing new OS every year is insane
Comment from : @ekaprasetio9564

I have one, but it’s for running latest version of Linux!
Comment from : @Solstice42

I have one and I do not like it I’m actually upgrading it this week
Comment from : @CrazyCobraCC

I just bought a 2015, i always liked that look To be honest the Display is not like a Pro but its OK I get a good Deal for 150€ and People like that Laptops still
Comment from : @Kara_Vezir

Why does he repeat 10 times about the display and pixel
Comment from : @justjoking2275

Pro tip: First thing to do with that laptop is to install linux on it and make it perfectly usable again (and kiss the non-supported MAC OS goodbye)
Comment from : @buckybucky8596

LOL Always humorous to me how much Mac fans are more concerned with how their computer 'looks' rather than how it performs
Comment from : @buckybucky8596

still using my macbook air 11' from 2014 eiditing on that kind of laptop is laggy? yes) am i gonna buy new pc? no, i think im happy with my macbook
Comment from : @kontrama06

Why the 2017 one though, like go for 2018, it is almost the same age so you can get it for not that much more money, it is newer which has advantages with power, and software support, and it has the nice type of bezels, instead of the weird ones on the 2017 one that let everybody around you know that your broke
Comment from : @TechnicallyHenry

got a 2019 MacBook Pro 13 inch 4 thunderbolt 3 port intel i5 16gb ram 512gb sib for that price

F! That is WAAAY TOO MUCH ENERGY DRINK CONSUMPTION BEFORE RECORDING FOR MY TASTE!!!!!!!!brI'm not looking for an alternative to ammonia before an olympic lift I'm just looking for entertainment Chill the F down dude!
Comment from : @dyvel

Opencore is allowing Mac users back to 2008 to use later OS's I'm watching this vid on my maxed out C2D 2009 17" MBP works pretty well on Monterey, using Affinity suite and Logic for tracking recording sessions Software support is not an issue Saying that I wouldn't even attempt video editing on it, but as a basic MacBook for general tasks it's solid and working well
Comment from : @gixxer12

I have a 2013 macbook air i7, 128gb 8gb ram I use it for work since 2013 Ive only had to change the motherboard $400, upgrade the battery $200in 11 yrs
Comment from : @sdrjr3562

Best thing about this model is the user can replace the battery and the SSD if needed You can also use the Open Care Legacy Patcher to run the latest software
Comment from : @daveyoung6895

It's actually 2010 design
Comment from : @celeron_cn

I recently acquired a 2013 MacBook Pro 15" Retina (16 GB RAM, 500 GB SSD) for $240 to run Linux After booting it and updating the system to macOS 11 Big Sur (the latest for that model) I was very pleasantly surprised how modern and usable it was even compared to my 2020 Mac mini M1 running Sonoma (macOS 14) Apple has introduced many refinements to the hardware and system software over the years, but I'm impressed how usable and familiar an almost 12 year old system can feel -- other than the weight Oof! I had forgotten how heavy these large-screen MBPs can be But that is another story All in all, it runs macOS great oh, and it's more than enough hardware for Linux For a hobbyist, older Macs are great!
Comment from : @sfperalta

I treat my MacBook Air like a magazine It spends half the day outside tossed from chair to bench I just recently changed the battery in 30 minutes I love mine And the used ones rock, too!
Comment from : @rodkoehler

My first macbook was the 2016 macbook air I now have a M2 Air but I gave that older one to a relative and he is using it It is working for him brA friend still has this old macbook air and he is happy with it
Comment from : @mymoodz

I’m currently using Macbook Air 2017 for my work and it works just fine actually But I’m pretty it wont work for heavy workloads
Comment from : @roggielaingo6409

these are great to install sequoia os with opencore legacy patcher,they run smooth
Comment from : @williamsritter3010

i'm still using this for my travel and work i use window 10 and work perfectly in 2024 as long it can support my trading apps, I will still use this
Comment from : @jcramones

Still got working well 2012 Mac air, of course with original charger
Comment from : @byondhorizon3576

It is a perfect machine for students My new colleague graduated this year and she is still using this notebook she bought in 2019 on durability: My IIe, IIc, LC 475, SE 4/40, iBook, PowerBook G4, MacBook Pro 2008 and MBA 11,6" still work ;) I regret giving my G5 Powermac to my daughters school 12 years ago though, and my team of PM7600/PB1400 was great back in the early 2000s - I recently found the PCMCIA WLAN card I used in that notebook There are some eternal classics, but apple also had massive fails Before I got the PM7600, I had a 6300 I loved it, because it was my first Powermac, but it was a pain Ah, and there was that IIsi which exploded next to my left knee Writing this on a PBP 2017 btw

Comment from : @paulJkiely

What you dont talk about is how durable they are, they are built like thanks While your usuall walmart sub 249 dollar computer comes apart the mack air are strong, light and battery lasts for ages I love mine and wont trade them for the world The new macks are delicate and come with factory defects ( keyb, video card etc) You can get an ebay refurbished for 99 dollars!!

Comment from : @sirbobbyuk

mine still works with updated software in 2024 battery is still strong lasts a day with simple computing
Comment from : @paulanthony4209

This particular machine is terrific in terms of design and included hardware, provided you don't need to perform really intensive tasks on it It is a pity that the latest MacOS version it supports is "Monterey" (released in 2021, still supported), but given the requirements of the latest versions of MacOS it is probably for the best: once I tried running an unsupported version of MacOS on an iMac and got pretty disappointing results in the graphics department brbrThere are two points worth considering in this machine, though: it is the last Macbook with upgradable storage (easily accomplished with an adapter): my 2017 Macbook Air is currently running Monterey on a 512GB SSD I upgraded myself A current Macbook with non-upgradable storage is stuck with whatever capacity was built and, given SSD's limited write cycles, have a limited (probably big enough) useful lifebrbrThe other point is the fact that Linux runs like a dream on this machine: incredibly fast and supports like 99 of the hardware (only the webcam is still not working, at least not out of the box) Thanks to the easily replaceable SSD it is quite straight forward to "dual boot" MacOS and Linux (which I do sometimes) So, even when MacOS completely drops support for this machine, it can still be useful
Comment from : @jjpc1984

I’ve got this and used it for years My younger brother now uses it and its still running great
Comment from : @Lr-tv3mh

I just bought a 2010 Macbook pro just for funIf you like tech and want to see how quickly time changes Said tech I think buy all you want but buying a 5 year old laptop is neither interresting nor is it a good purchase anymoreGet a newer one refurbed instead
Comment from : @infinitereactions6437

If you compared a comparable 6-7 year old windows laptop, how would it fair?
Comment from : @michaelhill6453

WHY if the software is the issue, do you not trial run some linux, which would get updates ?

Comment from : @anandshah71

Anything less than a M1 MacBook Air is a waste of money, period
Comment from : @alex8thebest91

Is the real reason not that people load Linux on this laptop
Comment from : @optimusprime1975

I'm guessing they don't do security updates on this anymore? That would be my concern
Comment from : @Spladoinkal

i bought this laptop in large quantities and each laptop is made for one task, I only used about 37 of them and I'm running out of laptops to use I need more for each assignment for my college semester I am a sciencer 🦄
Comment from : @internetprncess4976

I live in the third world country and using mac, ieven if it's old is a kind of prestige People would like to show off that they use mac so they would buy whatever they can afford brPersonally, I use mac book air 2014 that I bought when it was out, it still works fine except the battery which is starting to age brThe latest supported OS is Big Sur so I ditched Mac OS and installed linux on it and I ordered new battery which is expected to arrive here soon brI am still happy with it and don't think of replacing it quite yet
Comment from : @richardrajiabo3755

As someone that has used a 2017 MacBook Air since 2017 The biometric is not a big deal because if you have your Apple watch hooked up you can approve stuff that way instead
Comment from : @iSteven180

imo an old macbook represents good value because Apple refuses to support macOS for older hardware and it drops the price of these once premium laptops considerably Old macbooks make for great Linux internet machines or document writers that feel way better than a chromebook
Comment from : @MrCrazyjoe259

5:14 say what you want about the bezels, the old curvy MacBook Air design looks gorgeous next to the black and square box that is the new MacBook Air It’s not even a comparison – the new MacBook is boring at best and thick and ugly at worst It doesn’t look like it was made for humans to use, it doesn’t look approachable anymore
Comment from : @aRandomPersonOfTheInternet

on the editing part, i disagree okay sure i have the 2014 macbook air and it is swifty for me :) never had issues with it

Comment from : @Littlebrownchicken

really, since it has boot-camp unlike apple silicon you could just switch to windows once support ends Its not 100 locked down shoot I have one I triple boot with monterey, 10, and mint just because its so portable
