Im in desperate need of a laptop and am kind of on a budget and am looking for a laptop that I can use to study and editing videos , is the MacBook m1 worth it or should I save more money and get the m2.? I want to buy a laptop that will still be good in 4/5 years from now because I don’t want to be worried about having to buy a new one for a long time I’m done going to the library on rainy days to use their slow pc’s :,)

    Yes, given Apple’s lifecycle it should get major software updates for the next 4 years or so.

    Editing videos might require more than 8GB of RAM which will significantly add to the cost though.

    Yes, But 16Gb minimum, if you wanna keep it 4/5 years don’t go for a 8Gb version!

    Just bought a m1 air(2t ssd + 16g ram) for a grand and I expect it to last 5 years at least The m1 chip is already powerful enough for all my needs, there isn’t much of a point to get m3
