“investment” it is clearly not a good investment.
Investment generally makes you money back somehow.
If you plan to do work, video editing, programming, sure. The battery life is amazing, no other brand offers anything like it.
Just for daily task, you just looking for an Apple logo on the back of your device. It’s not a good investment, no.
I had to comment, just cause I find it funny whenever people ask if buying depreciating goods (consumerism) is a good investment.
It is an investment if you use it to make more money.
I wouldn’t think of a MacBook as an investment. They never gain in value unless you keep it for so long that it becomes rare and people want to buy it for nostalgia. I use an MBP for programming and light machine learning activities. I generally keep my MacBooks for four - six years before considering a replacement… though depending on use-case one can last a really long time.
My MacBook is from mid-2012 and still performs basic tasks like a champ. From what you plan on using it for, an M1 Air would be more than enough. An iPad would also suffice
