I recently bought and returned a 15” MBA 24GB RAM and 1TB SSD. First time getting a Mac from a Dell XPS 15 9510 i9 64gb RAM 2tb SSD.
The problem with the MBA was it froze when I had slack calls, video was lagging and then it all would freeze up every minute for a few seconds during screen sharing the point I couldn’t continue the calls that way I wasn’t able to screen share anymore or have my camera on to avoid freezing.
I’d have safari open, a PowerPoint, slack and miro. Now ngl I loved the Mac OS and I do have an iPad and iPhone. Considering one of the m3 laptops just not sure how much RAM I should get and if it is worth it. I feel it’s a big price difference.
I’d use it for architectural design and business meetings, browsing, reports, presentation, reading online, meetings, etc.
Any tips? Advice? Stuck on this especially that it’s several thousand dollars difference from an air which most people said would be more than enough with 24gb RAM
It should not have frozen with just Powerpoint, safari, slack and miro... especially with 24 GB ram. It seems like you got a defective product or it was indexing or software bug in one of your apps.
