I don’t think M1 has anything to do with the topic except as an advertisement. Title could literally be “MacBook Air takes a direct shrapnel hit” (air is relevant since it’s the thinness that matters) and it would be just as effective of a title.

    There are minor differences in the internal components, from 2019 to 2020 MBAirs, and a notable case change in 2021.

    The 2020 model IS pretty tough, though. It’s the last iteration of 11 years refining an already pretty durable form factor.
