![]() (whenever they come out)?īetween the M2 13” Pro and M2 MBA, I’m leaning MBA. It seems like all that can be handled by the M2s? Any counter-arguments for spending extra on the current 14”? Or even waiting for a 14” M2 Pro etc. I want something that can handle all that with ease, but I won’t be doing any intensive video editing or hardcore gaming. I’ll mostly be using it for school (learning code), streaming, and light gaming or photo editing. I’m not sure the 14” or 16” pros are worth the extra money for my use case). I’ll have access to Windows and Linux machines if needed, but I’ve already decided I want my primary machine to be a MacBook (it’s the OS I’m most familiar with and will be most comfortable using).I’m probably looking at an M2 13” or an M2 MBA. waiting on the new M2s) RAM recommendation (is 16GB enough?) M2 MBA (is the fan worth it?) comparing both to the 14” Pro (M1 Pro vs. ![]() TLDR: Starting CS program and want to replace my old MacBook ASAP using for programming, plus some light graphics & gaming 13” Pro vs. You can also call up Apple and instead of telling them you are moving you can say you might move and what to do in case you were to eventually move, what their requirements are. In the end Apple mostly doesn't ask questions, so with Applecare+ you can go into any Apple Store internationally and they will automatically see it has Applecare+ and accept it. So you should at least give Apple a call when you move and ask them if there is any info that needs to be updated on their end. One of those things is, I believe but I didn't check it now, that you need to inform Apple if any one of the following things change: your name, address, e-mail address or phone number. Basic ones such as informing about damage to your Mac right away and being truthful when you make a claim. And just like with other insurances, there are obligations for you. Just like health or car insurance, except everything is handled directly with Apple so you don't have to deal with an insurance company yourself. The thing with Applecare+ is that it's not just a warranty extension, it's an insurance. It is valid worldwide for whoever Apple has that contract with, so since you bought it it stays with you. If you were to sell your Mac to someone overseas they could not continue the Applecare+ contract. This is no problem if you aren't selling the device. Transfering is only about changing the ownership of the Applecare+ contract to someone else. Just to clarify does this mean you cannot transfer applecare+ between countries at all? So if at all possible you should make sure the Applecare+ plan is transfered to you and Apple has updated its records. If you tell them you bought the Mac, they will not accept any Applecare+ repairs if it wasn't transfered to you. And you need to lie to Apple saying that the person they have on file is still the owner and just gave you the laptop to use. when you show up in a store wanting to use Applecare+, Apple might call the owner they have on file to confirm this), but you have no legal claim to that. It is still possible to use Applecare+ if the seller agrees to handle this for you (i.e. If this isn't done, then the Applecare+ is still registered to the previous owner and when you try to use Applecare+ Apple can and sometimes does refuse to do any work under Applecare+ since you are not the person that Apple has the Applecare+ contract with. This is done by giving the seller your first and last name, e-mail address and telephone number, the seller has to contact Apple and request an Applecare+ ownership transfer. It can only be moved to someone else (=you) if you are a resident in the same country (so for example if Applecare+ was bought in Canada and you are in the States, it cannot be transfered to you) and the seller needs to transfer it to you himself. Applecare+ is not just bound to the device, it is also bound to the person who bought it initially. I assume you mean you have the Air with Applecare+, which has a few showstoppers you should be aware of. If you are happy with the Air, it's way simpler not to switch devices.
