If y'all are going to push the machine that hard, I would not consider the new Air either for that matter. Any issues they have doing work will be compounded by going with an even lower end machine. I think it is worth noting however, that if your friends are complaining about heating and lag, that 2017 MacBook Pro will run circles around any Air you can buy especially as it relates to graphics. Hobbyist level work can be done on just about anything - most pro level machines are all about making a process faster so you can make more money doing what you need to do. I would under no circumstance, unless money is a very serious issue, go for the old Air which is what I assume you're talking about, as you mention the i7 and lack of ports.įor a student though, just about any Mac will be completely fine. I have used it for years, but as a graphic designer you may need better color accuracy and resolution. Keep in mind that the screen in MacBook Air 2013-2017 is pretty old technology and it doesn't look top great comparing to Retina display. You can't do it with any other MacBook these days.

If you are going to use external display, I would go with MacBook Air 2013-2017. Hello, as an owner of MacBook Air 2013 and MacBook Air 2018, here's my two cents.
