Apple MacBook Air vs. Windows PC
I'm a big Apple fan/user. I bought my MacBook Air 2018 version, in December 2018, and I am very happy with it. It is definitely different from a Windows based PC. As for the battery and its longevity, my battery lasts a couple of days after a full charge. I use mine daily, sometimes 3 hours straight for school, and it's great. My Windows PC battery lasted a long time too, but it depends how often you use your computer. So results may vary. My favorite thing I love about my MacBook Air is that I can answer calls, FaceTime and text just like I do on my iPhone. It syncs, so there are no duplicates. If I take a picture with my iPhone, I can AirDrop it directly to my Mac. I don't have to email the photo and download it, like I had to do with my Windows PC. My Apple Watch can unlock my Mac, so I don't have to type in my password all the time. For those who are a little intimidated with computers, especially if you're switching from one platform to another, I recommend attending the Apple store "How-To's" to learn more about your Mac. Since I have owned and used both a Windows based PC and now a Mac, I'm definitely loving the Mac.

Great for college students!
I have yet to experience anything bad with this laptop. It is fast and efficient. I have been able to keep open about 10 tabs without it lagging. What I disliked is that it does not have usb ports, therefore, you are left with buying an adapter in case you want to charge your phone while using it etc. Overall experience is good so far. I am also really pleased with the touch id option.

Great accessory for a college student
I purchased the Apple MacBook Air for my daughter that is now a sophomore in college. For most of her classes, she is expected to bring a laptop to class. After trying a few laptop, that kept running out of memory and/or storage space, I decide to invest in a MacBook for her. As this is what most college student have or a MacBook Pro. She loves it! It is easy to navigate through all of its features.

I had my heart set on this for awhile and it definitely exceeds my expectations. This MacBook Air is so light and easy to use that I can’t believe I waited so long to upgrade. I love that it’s artached to my phone and iPad, so sharing and accessing files while on the go is seamless. I LOVE IT and the color is GORGEOUS!

Best laptop purchase yet!
I was hesitant in getting this laptop, but I’m so glad I did!!! It’s beautiful, thin and lightweight. I get tons of compliments when I go out with it. I got this MacBook for school & I haven’t had a problem yet. It works fast and it’s easy for me to carry around. Would definitely recommend this product!!
