Fourthly, The 121.1GB SSD is filled up with 50GB of system files from when you open the box on the first day of use, leaving you with about 71GB to place Applications, Files and other items. This happens even when there are no applications open on the computer at all. The MacBooks our school gives us all have 8GB of internal physical RAM, although the whole time the computer uses less than 4GB of that and then it will store the RAM bassed information on your SSD, filling up anywhere from 1GB to 24GB of SSD internal storage in less than a minute. When doing more intense work, even small types, (light photoshop etc.) the battery barley lasts more than about half an hour.

Secondly The highly appraised '12 hour battery life' after about a week of light use (word and chrome for scho.

Not many people actually like these things, they aren't suited for school. My school gives every student from year 8 to year 12 one of these. Both of the major companies offer poor software and support for people who need to store and secure large numbers of images. If you're used to Microsoft, don't transition via the Macbook Air to Apple you're not getting anything different from Apple. This has been an expensive and time consuming mistake.
but online advice is abysmal, the device's "help" function is useless and, if it can't secure the photos (the principal reason for its purchase), it's of no use to me. The screen is good and the physical feel of the thing is impressive. As for the rest of the machine's performance, it also seems slow to me. Read more of stuffing around, very few images (maybe none -it's hard to tell) have been uploaded to the icloud. The problem is that after a week, despite having the techs in for two stints, and despite repeated efforts to upload images from the Mac - hours and hours. A 2020 Macbook Air at a bargain price seemed like a clever choice, especially after a friend spoke of seamless uploading to the iCloud from both iphone and Macbook. Frustrated with recent changes to Microsoft Photo (like many other users of that software), I decided to vote with my feet.
