I wonder if this would have been more if not for parts issues? The M1 MBA is a new dawn for Apple in the laptop market, specifically the sun 1000$ market. It’s a device that is arguably if not very likely best in class yet is competitive on price. It is my first Apple laptop and I now rarely reach for my Thinkpad anymore (a good device on its own but is just lesser to the MBA).
If it isn’t a parts issue, Apple needs to do a much better job of getting the M1 MBA in front of customers. They’ve finally got an all around winner(probably first time), they should be waving that banner a lot more. There are likely many more average users buying a 900 dollar windows laptop right now that are making a mistake not going with the M1 MBA.
