M4 24gb screen broke after just 6 months.

Back to m1, just 8gb*. It sometimes hang for a second or two, but you know what. I'm happy with it.

That's when I have 38 tabs, two IDEs and try to grep some text on VS code.

M1 air, 16gb, second hand, 200 bucks, 200+ tabs in brave, photoshop, illustrator and premiere and kicad and sublime and chrome with one tab watching a youtube live stream. Plus text edit, notes and prolly some more apps. Works fine, zero hitch.. maybe too good for my own good.

When I spec'd a M1 air for my partner back in the day, even though she didn't really need it, I made sure to get the 16gb model for the longevity. Devices shouldn't be disposable toys. Apparently I had better foresight than expected...

Goat. I suppose 16GB does make a difference. Or it's VS Code/ium.

Sublime is sublime.

Did you buy it used ? Why wouldn’t it be under warrantee. This is a new Mac sale still not an upgrade path .

Brand new. But Apple typically considers a screen Crack as accidental damage. Perhaps to sell those apple care extended warrantee.
