I’ll wait for the Pro… But honestly - the last Airs and Pros are a joke especially while using a second Monitor. The Pro has a known bug and can get pretty slow. The Air - unresponsive as hell if a second monitor is used and u are in a virtual conference with screencast and cam on. We must always look at the price value tag and at that point Apple really disappointed recently. Don’t get me wrong… I am a Dev and i appreciate the same things as you do. But I am not hyped by the M1… I just think at that price point apple should get things sorted out finally and if the M1 works out… Well, than thanks Apple and thanks for let me buying all this expensive crap upfront ;)


I’ve been using the Mini for 7 months without a single hiccup – daily routine requires several Adobe apps running simultaneously and a couple of dev node servers plus browsers, mail and the like, on a 4k/5k double monitor setup.


Strange... I frequently dock my M1 Air to a 3840x2160 display and it can easily run my 30+ track Logic Pro session without any perceivable throttling.


I believe he's referring to the previous generation of Air's, not the M1 version.
