The Truth about the NEW MacBook Air (2018) #Helpful Post

your guys Johnson here in the tech

insanity the lack of sleep continues

Apple closed at October with a bang

dropping new iPad pros new Mac minis

which I am hype for and then what we're

talking about right now new MacBook Airs

now I swear I've really really tried to

avoid using truth in a title my videos

lately a ton of people do it I guess

that is clique baby but I also think

people have the wrong idea with this new

MacBook Air and I want to explain why

for starters I've seen a ton of comments

saying hey Tim where is that rumored 7 8

& 9 headed our mythical budget MacBook

this MacBook Air is $1200 what the heck

is going on this MacBook Air was not

intended to be that budget MacBook like

ever

I've said it all year long where I felt

the 13-inch MacBook Pro without touch

bar didn't really make sense in a lineup

it will make more sense this Apple

updated their 2 inch MacBook Air or

replace that which is pretty much

exactly what they did if you recall the

previous 13-inch MacBook Air was around

that 1,200 hour price point but it came

with a trash display and no I'm not just

talking about resolution I am talking

the actual display the panel like it was

just pure hot garbage so what we have

now is a much much better display with a

higher resolution Retina 2560 by 1600

display you have three color options

down silver Space Gray and finally go

which actually is different than the

MacBook Pro breaking news poppy Harlow

just ruin in my day we can't go 6

minutes without an Apple controversy

apparently there's a report of Mac

rumors that the new MacBook Air is only

using a 5 watt chip and people are

freaking DUP out all I'm gonna say is

please can we just get these devices in

hand use them test them before we freak

out so yes with those chips you have a

dual-core processor with a base clock

speed of 1.6 gigahertz with a turbo up

to 3.6 whether it hits those turbo

speeds is a different conversation for a

different day but you got to remember

the 13-inch MacBook Pros out touch bar

was also a dual core machine now one

advantage of that 5 watt chip is gonna

be lower power consumption lower Heat

better battery life and that's something

Apple actually bragged about with this

MacBook Air honestly I think someone who

is picking up a MacBook Air wants great

battery life they don't want it running

hot and burning the crap out of their

thighs you are not buying a macbook air

2

render 8k raw footage and again before

you freak out and read the last let's

just get these things and remember that

it comes down to optimization before

anything else beyond the controversy oh

you were getting to full fledged under

both three ports not USB see like on a

12-inch MacBook so essentially this

MacBook Air is kind of like a MacBook

Pro junior for real though I know it

sounds silly but Apple won with the

MacBook Air name because people want a

MacBook Air some people don't want the

MacBook Pro some people don't want the

MacBook even though the 12-inch model is

super lightweight and portable it is

that MacBook Air name that makes people

feel warm and fuzzy inside it's totally

a subconscious thing but hearing air

kind of makes you assume that hey my

laptop is lightweight it's portable it's

lighter than air and there's also a

little bit of nostalgia going back to

what Steve Jobs pulled out of that

envelope many years ago now it's also

new is touch ID it's nowhere near as

fancy looking as the touch bar models

but it's nice that it's here and it

really rounds out these laptops from

their storage wise you can go up to a

crazy one point 5 terabytes on a MacBook

Air which I don't think anybody should

do it's just like completely overkill

with that kind of money bump yourself up

to a macbook pro get some better specs

it's a better performance and use the

MacBook Air like it should be used

lastly these new MacBook Airs go all the

way up to 16 gigawatts and yes there

definitely is already some controversy

with these 5 watt chips but that aside I

think they look very promising and I'm

super excited to get them in hand and

test these guys out with that said

definitely feel free to subscribe you

have yet for the full review and drop a

like if you are enjoying this continued

tech madness more videos yet to come

the new iPad pros the new Mac Mini which

I am hype for like viber hype Oh

anyways Jonathan here and I will catch

you guys later
