This is Apple's model designation and refers to the date of introduction. When it was actually produced in the factory has nothing to do with it. This machine is the latest MacBook Air (as of April 21) and is highly recommended.
I suppose that you are talking about the "Back to school" offer: https://www.macworld.com/article/673191/get-free-airpods-in-apples-back-to-uni-sale-2022.html#:~:text=What%20is%20Apple's%20deal%20for%202022%3F,-Free%20AirPods%20(2nd&text=Thanks%20to%20the%20deal%20university,AirPods%20or%20the%20AirPods%20Pro. Unfortunately, we do not participate in this promotion.
Do you mean QWERTY? In Switzerland I do believe this can be ordered from Apple directly (but often digitec gives better deals). The easiest option is to simply set the QWERTZ keyboard layout to QWERTY and swap the Z with the Y and type as you would normally. Either that or order a QWERTY external keyboard and type with that.
Good question - I have the same one - the information is completely missing for all models - and would be absolutely important. @Digitec: Please improve...

I don't do much with Photoshop now - but it works well for me on the Air. There is now also an adapted version for the Apple M1 chip. Illustrator (which I use more) also runs well - but the app is not yet adapted and runs in Intel emulation - but for me also good!
I'd like to know if you have any questions about this product and if you have any questions about the warranty. The office pack is worth between 69 and 99 per year or 149 for a permanent purchase if you are a student.
Enough for sure. These new Macs are not only different compared to Windows: they make a massive leap with M1 and integrated RAM compared to the models they replace (also from the same year). Now the price has dropped from the 16GB model and they pay 130.- more for twice as much RAM and twice as much SSD. That's what I would afford.
