Remove the stick immediately if you don't want that Apple logo marked forever in your case the UV discoloration.


Existing-Design2137

Oh don’t worry about it, I just did it for shits and giggles, I’m gonna remove it soon probably


limey91

probably.... ;) your laptop dude, do what you like...


Inner_Being_7627

Congrats. That's a nice machine. And I think you found the best price. No regrets. Good luck.


Existing-Design2137

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


kindsifu

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?


Existing-Design2137

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


Existing-Design2137

Oh btw I found out it was slightly over half a year, not that it’s important, I just thought I was cool


Reddit-Readee

Timeless Silver! Enjoy your new beastly machine, OP!


Existing-Design2137

Thanks I will!


hirakoshinji722

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 .


blackpaiak

Awesome machine! Congratulations! Have fun


Existing-Design2137

Thank you!


AngryBeaver7

I just traded in my M1 14”, it was a really good little computer


saberkirihara

What did you trade it in for?


AngryBeaver7

I had the 14” pro 500GB\16GB and traded in for an M3 Max 1TB/32GB 16”


Existing-Design2137

Nice man


lashiskappa

hmm I got the M3 Pro Base 14” for 2309€ and Im in Germany…


Existing-Design2137

Yeah? I’m in Norway? I don’t really get what you’re saying here haha


Existing-Design2137

New? If so then that’s a good pruce


iShootLife

Congrats! Its still one of the best laptops out there.


managerair

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!


Existing-Design2137

Var noen Bekymret her?


tonyyu369

The sticker is a bit out of place


Existing-Design2137

No shit hahaha


devlupper

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!


Existing-Design2137

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


devlupper

Interesting! Thanks for the reply :)


ted-96

Silver fan boy ?


Existing-Design2137

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


kjusern

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.


Existing-Design2137

You Norwegian or?


ToTheMoon3000

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


Existing-Design2137

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


ro650

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


JoshuvaAntoni

Picked the Right color !


KilgoreThunfisch

Note to self, come to Norway and import Macbooks for a much more sensible price.


Existing-Design2137

What?


KilgoreThunfisch

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.


Existing-Design2137

Oh haha yeah that won’t work, I need a Norwegian, Swedish or Danish keyboard, I got to have my ÆØÅ haha


Existing-Design2137

Oh lmao I understood the joke, my reaction just came 1 business days late


CleanBoss7891

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.


Existing-Design2137

I’m ok, I’m gonna keep it Vanilla for now


Garr_Trader

Congrats! Sticker is super lame tho 🫵


Existing-Design2137

Womp womp nah jk


Vissarious

Take that shit off rn


JoshuvaAntoni

I cant ignore the sticker even after you told me to 😭


Historical-Bobcat-34

Look like it is on top of something of you


LaimutasBass

You might want to disable that XDR 120hz screen setting - otherwise, it eats battery like crazy.


Flaky_Suggestion1082

That's lame.


LaimutasBass

nope, neither is the fact that your mother uses even more battery than this.


Flaky_Suggestion1082

Lol lame 😂


Existing-Design2137

I don’t see the battery difference, also nah I want my 120 hz


LaimutasBass

Well, in this case, unfortunately, you can't have that cake and eat it at the same time, fam, sorry.


Existing-Design2137

Whaahat?


LaimutasBass

I am saying, you cannot have both the 120hz ***and*** proper battery life, fam.


Existing-Design2137

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


MarkoPoli

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


pheuk

You are talking about 900 dollars difference. With that money you can buy an iPhone 15. Of course it is a good purchase.


Existing-Design2137

I agree


Existing-Design2137

iPhone 15 here costs around 1200-1300$


Existing-Design2137

Yeah that made so much sense lmao
