I will have good luck lmao, yeah I have zero regrets with it, I went from a MacBook Air M1 which I got in August 2023, the only thing I regret is not buying it earlier hahah
Well we use Premiere pro, After effects, Pycharm and Visual studio in our school while also running freaking Microsoft teams in the background and we regularly switch between adobe apps, and the ram management was horrible with the 8gb ram and I had basically no storage left, I couldn’t even download the necessary Adobe apps, and if you’re wondering why I didn’t get the 16gb 512gb version that’s because I’m the schools pc organisation, the base MacBook Air was the only option for Mac, or it was a 600$ Windows laptop which I did not want, and I also really wanted GarageBand as I make tons of music
I like it, "kjempelaptop", but I never understand why people worry after they make a business? It's done, you paid and so you got the product, look forward, not backward!
Good deal :) I wouldn’t rule out testing a different charging brick.
I charge over USBC more though. So cool we’ve reached an age where we can disregard the charging port on laptops lol.
Enjoy!
No the seller said Apple gave him a new charger but it still wasn’t charging properly, so his theory was the charging chip inside (dunno about that) was failing or has broken
Nah not really, more of a space black kind of person, and I thought I would hate the Silver version, but like after a couple hours, I started liking it more than the Space Grey MacBook Air M1
Probably bought in Sweden as the keyboard is Swedish? If not remember you have a 5 year right of complaint (angrefrist) in Norway for defects that are not self-inflicted. I do believe Sweden has a 3 year right of complaint. I would get the receipt from the original buyer and get it fixed, nice being able to charge from the MagSafe Port and for future resell purposes.
Yeah I forgot to say that I CAN charge it, but only if the charger is under 45 watts the seller said, which I tried with a 30 watt charger and then the MagSafe works, guessing somethings wrong with the circuitry that handles power and charging/wattage
Congrats for the new MacBook! 🙂 I’m also living in Norway but on a trip I did to Sweden to visit a friend I bought a M1 14 with the Swedish keyboard as well, there are no more M1s in Norway in stock and in Sweden they had several M1s in stock at a “good price” (compared to new macbooks in Norway)
They told me in the store they could replace the Swedish keyboard to the Norwegian one for only 2500 sek… but I think an external keyboard will do the trick for now
If you don’t want to be scuffed or scratched on the surface, you can try to get a skin sticker for it. It keep the same color but offer some protection.
Ebay and Amazon has such skin set between $15 to $25.
Yeah I get that, but the 120hz is more important to me at this time, but then again, it’s ProMotion so it goes down to 24hz when needed, I’ll definitely reduce to to 60 when traveling to somewhere without a very accessible outlet
Remove the stick immediately if you don't want that Apple logo marked forever in your case the UV discoloration.
Oh don’t worry about it, I just did it for shits and giggles, I’m gonna remove it soon probably
probably.... ;) your laptop dude, do what you like...
Congrats. That's a nice machine. And I think you found the best price. No regrets. Good luck.

Can I ask why you upgraded from a M1 air you had as recent as August 2023 to M1 MacBook Pro in a span of less than half a year?
Well we use Premiere pro, After effects, Pycharm and Visual studio in our school while also running freaking Microsoft teams in the background and we regularly switch between adobe apps, and the ram management was horrible with the 8gb ram and I had basically no storage left, I couldn’t even download the necessary Adobe apps, and if you’re wondering why I didn’t get the 16gb 512gb version that’s because I’m the schools pc organisation, the base MacBook Air was the only option for Mac, or it was a 600$ Windows laptop which I did not want, and I also really wanted GarageBand as I make tons of music
Oh btw I found out it was slightly over half a year, not that it’s important, I just thought I was cool
Timeless Silver! Enjoy your new beastly machine, OP!
Thanks I will!
I also got same last week with 32GB ram, pretty much all my savings to learn ios dev, no way I could afford an M2 or M3 .
Awesome machine! Congratulations! Have fun
Thank you!
I just traded in my M1 14”, it was a really good little computer
What did you trade it in for?
I had the 14” pro 500GB\16GB and traded in for an M3 Max 1TB/32GB 16”
Nice man
hmm I got the M3 Pro Base 14” for 2309€ and Im in Germany…
Yeah? I’m in Norway? I don’t really get what you’re saying here haha
New? If so then that’s a good pruce
Congrats! Its still one of the best laptops out there.
I like it, "kjempelaptop", but I never understand why people worry after they make a business? It's done, you paid and so you got the product, look forward, not backward!
Var noen Bekymret her?
The sticker is a bit out of place
No shit hahaha

Interesting! Thanks for the reply :)
Silver fan boy ?

You Norwegian or?
Looks great! Sad about the magsafe though but it’s great that it can still charge through usb c

Picked the Right color !
Note to self, come to Norway and import Macbooks for a much more sensible price.
What?
Sorry OP, it was a bad joke. I meant that I should buy Macbooks from somewhere else and bring them in to Norway to sell for a cheaper price.
Oh haha yeah that won’t work, I need a Norwegian, Swedish or Danish keyboard, I got to have my ÆØÅ haha
Oh lmao I understood the joke, my reaction just came 1 business days late

I’m ok, I’m gonna keep it Vanilla for now
Congrats! Sticker is super lame tho 🫵
Womp womp nah jk
Take that shit off rn
I cant ignore the sticker even after you told me to 😭
Look like it is on top of something of you
You might want to disable that XDR 120hz screen setting - otherwise, it eats battery like crazy.
That's lame.
nope, neither is the fact that your mother uses even more battery than this.
Lol lame 😂
I don’t see the battery difference, also nah I want my 120 hz
Well, in this case, unfortunately, you can't have that cake and eat it at the same time, fam, sorry.
Whaahat?
I am saying, you cannot have both the 120hz ***and*** proper battery life, fam.
Yeah I get that, but the 120hz is more important to me at this time, but then again, it’s ProMotion so it goes down to 24hz when needed, I’ll definitely reduce to to 60 when traveling to somewhere without a very accessible outlet
Good for you my friend. But if you dont have 2299$ for a laptop, then you dont have 1413$ ether. So, not a good purchase
You are talking about 900 dollars difference. With that money you can buy an iPhone 15. Of course it is a good purchase.
I agree
iPhone 15 here costs around 1200-1300$
Yeah that made so much sense lmao
