I’m looking for an Apple MacBook Air M2 alternative that could run Linux.

I need something fanless, super lightweight with very long battery life. The only apps I use are Shotcut video editor, Chrome and Firefox.

Any advice?

Is it a good idea to get a MacBook Air m2 and use something like Asahi Linux or should I wait for arm linux laptops to become available.

    The reason it’s more efficient is because it doesn’t use x86.

    Repeating yourself is not being more clear.

    This is not exclusive to Apple. You can buy arm laptops

    If there are other ARM laptops that compete on power and efficiency, I’d very much like to learn more about them. Can you share?

    The reason it costs twice as much is because it is Apple. This is exclusive to Apple.

    The price is exclusive for a number of reasons but certainly in no small part due to unparalleled power and efficiency.
