Can we upgrade the RAM or SSD?
No. Apple Silicon MacBook Air models (M1 through M5) have SoC-integrated RAM and a soldered SSD. The chip, RAM, and storage are one package on the logic board. Buy enough when you order - upgrading later is impossible.
For data recovery on a failed SSD, we offer chip-off recovery. Complex, expensive (AED 2,000+), but possible. More on data recovery →

Our honest take on the Air M1
The single best repair-value MacBook in our workshop. M1 performance still feels modern in 2026, parts are abundant, and the design is forgiving to work on. A AED 450 battery swap buys you 2-3 more years easily.
