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.

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.
