The price (especially for students at 599 ?)
Impeccable design and finish (aluminum, keyboard, trackpad)
A real 13-inch screen: not a Mini Mac
The A18 Pro chip is perfect for everyday use.
The 8GB of RAM do not slow down the device.
Touch ID and 256 GB on the base model
No keyboard backlight
Multi-core performance equivalent to the M1
Recharge too slow

Future Zone
Case quality: Feels like a 1,200 euro Mac.
A18 Pro Power: High-level single-core performance.
Price: The cheapest entry to the "Club Apple" in years.
Display: Extremely sharp and bright (500 nits).
Reflections: The non-laminated screen is bothersome outdoors.
USB Eccentricity: A slow USB 2.0 port in 2026 seems out of place.
Equipment: No Touch ID and no keyboard backlight on the base model.
8 GB of RAM: For bold technological multitasking.
