Apple’s introduction of the M1 series of chips was a major paradigm shift for the company, bringing with them some of the efficient performance ever seen, allowing for powerful laptops that still managed to last all day.

Can it keep that title in practice? This excellent video review discusses one creative’s thoughts after a year with the laptop.
Apple’s M1 Macs turned the computing world on its head a bit, offering impressive performance and jaw-dropping battery life at prices that were much more affordable than traditional levels, ushering in a new era of computing for creatives. This great video review discusses the M1 MacBook Air as a long-term solution for creatives and if it can handle the often heavy demands we place on our computers.
