2024 June walin wage kalin ewa. Ita passe fixed. Pitipasse wenama ports ehema ena hinda lassanai lap eka.
In this case go for a M4 Air 13inch with 256GB should be enough for you.
If you have the budget, just get the 15inch one, it is just perfect for internet browsing and daily use.
ammo mewain gannepa mchn. mewaye devices kohen ena ewada danne na.
If you buy Apple Products, buy from these shops:
- Thundermac
- Rooter
- Gnext Store
- Futureworld
These are genuine places to buy.
Out of these Rooter and Thundermac are the ones I use. I bought 4 Macbooks within the last 6 months for our office and 2 from Rooter, 2 from Thundermac. Thundermac has great service center. They have the best technicians and tools for Apple repairs.
No machn.
Please decide this by checking the laptops in person. Dont trust reviews very much.
I have 2 laptops with me for my personal work. Macbook Pro M1 Pro 16 inch and Macbook Air 13 inch M3. And 2 weeks back I bought a 15 inch M4 Air for a collegue.
When I compare the 13 inch Air and 15 inch air it is not that big. But screen feels sooo much better on 15 inch.

Rooter, Thundermac dekama hodai.
Oi dekenma man aran tiyenawa macs.
See which model you need to buy, then take the prices from both places and buy from the lowest price shop out of these 2 is what I do.
Normally rooter eke price tikak adui. Anthimata ganipu 3ma gatthe Rooter eken.
Just mentioning here if anyone buying a Macbook.
Check 2 things when you buy a brand new macbook.
1. We need to check whether the device is brand new or refurbished
2. We need to see the region of the device
Both of these can be checked by looking at the part number in the box.
In the box its mentioned 3 things:
Model: A2338
Part No: M1ABCZP/A
Serial: XXXXXXXX
We need to check the Part No.
1. Check whether brand new or refurbished:
Look at the Model Number / Part Number (e.g., FQ123LL/A).
The last 2–3 letters before “/A” are the region code.
There is a big list.
But I recommend to buy only USA, UK, Aus, Singapore region macbooks. Avoid the Indian and UAE ones as much as possible.
For me my experience is good so far. I am sure I am not getting any special treatment. But this seems bad.
Check the rooter then.

- If it starts with M → New retail unit (standard).
- If it starts with F → Refurbished by Apple.
- If it starts with N → Replacement unit (given during service).
- If it starts with P → Personalized (engraved).
- MQD32LL/A → New retail MacBook.
- FQD32LL/A → Official Apple refurbished MacBook.
The last 2–3 letters before “/A” are the region code.
There is a big list.
But I recommend to buy only USA, UK, Aus, Singapore region macbooks. Avoid the Indian and UAE ones as much as possible.
| Code | Country / Region |
|---|---|
| LL/A | USA |
| B/A | UK / Ireland |
| X/A | Australia / New Zealand |
| ZP/A | Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia |
| HN/A | India |
| J/A | Japan |
| CH/A | China |
| KH/A | Korea |
| TA/A | Taiwan |
| ZA/A | South Africa / UAE |
| RS/A | Russia |
| PP/A | Philippines |
Ade just checked and saw now after seeing your reply. Yes there has been negative reviews recently.
For me my experience is good so far. I am sure I am not getting any special treatment. But this seems bad.
Check the rooter then.

මේකෙන් ඔය region එක හොයන ටික ඇරෙන්න අනෙක් ටික මම වෙරිෆයි කරා ඒක හරි. region එක වෙරිෆයි කරන එක ශුවර් නැහැ
මම පර්සනලි යූස් කරන මැක්බුක් දෙකක් තියනවා දෙකම Singa වලින් අරගත්තෙ(ගනිපු දෙවනි එක ගත්තෙ ලංකාවෙ තැනකින්, එතනින් සිංගා වලින් ගත්තෙ කියලා කන්ෆර්ම් කරා Apple care ඇක්ටිවු කරද්දි). ඒ දෙකේම LL/A කෝඩ් එක තියෙන්නෙ
ඔෆිස් එකෙන් දීපු ලැප් එකත් සිංගා වලින් අරන් තියෙන්නෙ ඒකෙ තියෙන්නෙත් LL/A, මට හිතෙන්නෙ වෙන රටකින් උනත් US keyboard layout එක ගන්නවා නං US මොඩල් එක තමයි එන්නෙ කියලා. සිංගා ඇරෙන්න වෙන රටකින් ගනිපු මැක් එකක් හොයාගන්න බැරි උනා ඕක වෙරිෆියි කරන්න.
අනික් එක තමයි ඔය region එකෙන් කොලිටි එකේ වෙනසක් නෙමෙයි තියෙන්නෙ ලොකුවටම WiFi/Bluetooth වල යූස් කරන චැනල් සහ frequency වල වෙනස තියෙන්නෙ. US වලට සපෝට් කරන ඩිවියිස් එකක් ගත්තම අපේ ලඟ තියන රවුටර් අරව මේව එක්ක තියන competibility එක වැඩි වෙන්න පුලුවන්.
I think this a Singapore thing, since there a lot of international trade happens there, they could be selling the US version of the laptop.
These days there is an offer in costco for Macbook air m4. 16gb 512 GB 300,000lkr
me kathawa attha machan.
Mta kiyanna ona une USA, UK, Aus, Singapore region ewa ganna kiyana ekai Indian and UAE ewa avoid kranna kiyana ekai.
UAE ewaye enne arabic keyboard ekak. Eka hena wadayak use kranna.
Lagadi apple repairs karana ekek ekka kathakraddi uu qwa unta wadipurama hadanna apu macbook indian region or indian made kiyala. E nisa thamai ewa avoid kranna qwe.
E arenna oi USA, UK, Aus, Singapore region ewa gattha kiyala wishesha wasiyak na. Habai oi umba qwa wage minor hardware scenes and keyboard layouts ehema apita ona widiyata tiyenawane.

I guess the Indian model is popular here due to hand-carry and selling, so it is natural to have high number of defective items, but not a quality problem.
wow, didnt know this.Rooter and LuxeryX same ownersla wage mathaka widiyata
Thanks for sharing this mchn.
