MacBook Air Logic board replacement

My MacBook Air M1 with 16GB of memory and 1TB of SSD crashed and needs a logic board replacement. The cost is around $700 USD. Is it worth the money to repair it, or is it better to buy a new one?

Logic board died in MacBook Air M2 TWO years into owning this product the logic board dies. $700 to replace! Seems like a known issue. What a waste of money.

Repair or not the logic board for 2020 MacBook Pro Bought my MacBook Pro in 2020 and use it only periodically—-today the Genius Bar says I need a new logic board for $599. Is it worth it? They say it’s not considered a quality issue because not enough documented issues of this sort exist. I’m thinking that’s because folks can’t afford the repair so broken computer just go in the trash. No trade in available since it doesn’t start up. Frustrated to the max! Cj

Logic Board replacement on 2020 Macbook Air Hi, have seen a few people asking similar questions and want to check on best course of action. Bought daughter a new macbook air to replace a stolen one back in October 2020. Laptop broke a month ago, initially thought it was a battery issue, but have now been told it is a logic board and could cost up to £500 to replace as the laptop is not under warranty. Have seen a few people saying Apple will replace for free under consumer rights laws. Any advise on best approach, don't want to have to pay out another £500 less than two years after buying it. Thanks.

Should your Replace your LogicBoard?

That's YOUR call. But, it sure seems worth it to me, given you have such an expensive device.
