MacBook Air 2020 i7 vs MacBook Air M1???
Bestbuy has a pretty good deal on a 2020 MacBook Air with Touch ID an i7 CPU,16GB RAM and 512GB SSD for $1499 ($550 off $2049). Having 16gb of RAM and 512GB on a MacBook is a pretty pricey option so $1499 seems like a decent price.
However, I have heard all about how awesome the new M1 MacBook Air is and am wondering which is better this i7 or the M1? The lower end M1 Macbook with 7 core GPU,16GB and 512GB SSD is $1619 (EDU pricing) so which of these "deals" are better?
Or is the i7 vs the more expensive 8-core GPU model which comes in at $1744 (EDU pricing) for 16GB/512GB a better comparison to the i7? After writing all this out I am leaning towards the M1 but am interested in what some others have to say.
