Other times I get the spinning cursor and it freezes for longer, though the touchbar still works. Newly-opened apps take a long time to load and it often freezes for a few seconds when one opens.

It's taking a loooong time to switch between apps - usually 3-5 seconds, even with only two basic apps open (i.e. It has the upgraded 16gb ram and 256gb hard drive, and it's really slow. New M2 Pro freezing when switching between apps I have a new M2 Pro I bought less than a month ago but barely used aside from, like, normal browsing. I mean, what? They basically pled guilty that Macbook Air doesn't support high performance. what are the odds of dozens of apps not working properly with the new Monterrey version VS the new Macbook just sucks? Moreover, the 'supervisor' I got in touch with said the problem was MINE for having so many tabs open. I'm extremely dissatisfied with the performance of this mac and even more so with the appalling customer support.Īll they recommend is to contact chrome, slack, zoom, and all the dozens of apps I use informing them of a problem with their app and the Monterrey version.

Honestly, it feels like money down the drain. Yes, the new Macbook Air is just as slow as its cousin that's 10 years old. I've had the newest Macbook Air M1 chip for less than a year, and probably about 6 months in, it started performing very poorly: it would freeze, load extremely slow, the keyboard wouldn't work, and many times I'd just have to restart.įunnily enough, it works to the same degree as my previous 2011 Macbook. I'd think that by upgrading to the newest M1 chip, the slowness and frozen system would stop, as it used to happen to my 2011 Macbook.

Does this happen to you too? I'm the kind of person that works with dozens of tabs open both in safari and chrome.
