Is M1/M2 air sturdy?

How many years do they last? Heard they are good for 2-3 years.

I owned a MacBook air 2017, and it still works fine even with some heavy development work. Only the battery backup has gone down, but if I get it replaced then it will work the same as if I bought it new.

I hated the apple strategy to overprice it's products, but m1 is truly amazing. The chip architecture is revolutionary making it smooth and fast

They last at least for 4-5 years.

Typically a 1,000 cycle battery and by the time you hit 80% battery perf it'll be 4+ years.

The display is not very sturdy so be careful with the airs, but pros are absolutely solid.

For budget is constrain Go for m1 it’s is quite cheap, 59K M2 has bigger sized screen but it’s much more expensive
Both machines are quite fast

Yeah. Should go even more. Just remember it's about battery cycles. Check the number of battery cycles apple certifies. And then calculate the number of charges you'll do, depending on your use case.
