The Macbook Air is honestly a bit underpowered when it comes to video editing.

#MACBOOK AIR VIDEO EDITING UPGRADE#
Although you may upgrade the internal storage, the memory is capped at the 8gb. At the moment I still have the M1 MBP 13" base model, it works but hasn't been used for video editing, just light Graphics work for Social Media and in-store signage. The current generation comes with a 1.6 dual-core Intel Core i5, 8gb of ram, and discrete graphics. Ive started using Continuity Camera on macOS 13 Ventura, and now I can never go back.
#MACBOOK AIR VIDEO EDITING FOR MAC#
Here are some of the hottest video-editing software for Mac on the market today. I won't be doing long 4K edits, if I can help it? That's why I bought a M1 Mac Mini, but I need to up the RAM to 16GB to be able to work decently with a 4K timeline. You dont need to buy expensive video-editing software to get the job done. The M2 Air is a machine for someone like me. YT Channel – Tech Notice has a great (30+ minutes) video on Drives for Creatives and other OEMs of NVMEs to consider – "How to Set Up your Storage Workflow as a Video Editor?" "Best-Bang-For-Buck DIY Portable SSD: Better, Faster & Cheaper!"īut the best NVME SSD enclosure for M1/M2 = Acasis TB3/4-USB4 40GB… other NVMEs to consider? Seagate FireCuda 530 & TEAMGROUP T-Create Classic/T-Force CARDEA Ceramic C440 due to "Terra bytes Written (per day) spec"… Samsung might be a great performer today? But 9-14 months later?!? What is the "Terra bytes Written (per day) spec"? 30% of the drive capacity can be written over and over, per day, and then degrade. Now, to continue with you about the NVME discussion: Terra bytes Written (per day) spec… I don't hear that spoken with the swap file 'gate on the M1 SSD… I’m a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to.

This is a behind the scenes test and review of these two Apple Silicon machines and I really want to see whether the M2 is going to thermal throttle like it has for others, although we’re not using synthetic benchmarks in this video.Ĭan you perform video editing tasks with the base model M2 MacBook Air? Yes, but.
