It has a usb-c connection that does dsiplay as well as charge the macbook. I originally had them connected to my main ultrawide, an LG 38gl950b (this is a very high end gaming monitor that I also use with my windows gaming desktop) but due to the major problems I've had with the m1 macbooks on this display (more on this later), I am now using a Benq EW3270u which is a 32' 4k monitor that I had bought a while ago for my playstation. I use both the airs in closed lid clamshell mode most of the time (90%+), connected to external display. I do have rosetta 2 installed but surprisingly mostly everything now has native arm builds.

I am a full stack developer and my main use case comprises of using mainly these programs - VScode, iTerm, Fork (git client), nodejs, npm and pnpm, docker desktop for mac, slack, microsoft teams, postman and a lot of browser tabs. Also, for those that might be asking why not the macbook pro, well I bought the airs very close to the initial release, so the airs were the only choice back then.

Additionally, I would not buy the 8gb unified memory version for software development use cases.

If I had known about these issues before my purchases, I would definitely not buy. My personal summary for these laptops is that, while they are good laptops, the external display issues are complete deal breakers for my current setup. TLDR: Good laptop with a very efficient chip but with major deal-breaking external display issues. I've primarily used only windows and linux OSes in the past although I have used various other apple products like ipad and iphones. These are my first apple laptops by the way. I've been using these laptops daily for well over a year now.

I bought these fairly close to the release date, I think a couple weeks after. Both have the 7core gpu, since I have no use for gpu cores in my use cases. I have 2 m1 macbook airs, one is a 256gb ssd 8gb unified memory version and the other is a 512gb ssd 16gb unified memory version.

Hey guys, I just thought I'd post a semi-detailed long term review of the M1 macbook air from a software developer perspective, in case it might help others make a purchase decision.
