A: Not really but Apple memory upgrades are costly. My advice, take the 256 gig add and buy a 1tb Samsung external SSD from Amazon for like 100 bucks. Only keep essential files on the Mac, pictures and movies on the SSD.

A: I feel this color is overrated. I have the stardust and for fighting fingerprints it is excellent.
Q: can this computer get google chrome? and Microsoft outlook?
A: Yes, you can install both app separately.
Q: Does the keyboard have backlighting?
A: yes
Q: Is this Mac book good for a college student? Enough storage etc…
A: Yes it is I see college students use it all the time
Q: does the MacBook Air have USB ports to plug in external devices?
A: you have to have an adaptor which Mac sells
Q: Does the new macbook m4 come with a normal charger brick or the newer version?
A: It comes with a braided MagSafe cable along with Apple's 30W USB-C charger which does have a removable plug on the brick if you needed to added a long extension, you can do that. The prongs also fold down. Not sure what you mean by a "normal charger brick" as they've not really changed them in years other than the cable being removable from the brick where before the brick had fold out cord minders on either side that you would wrap the cord around, but since you can detach the cord, that's really not needed anymore.

Lightweight, Powerful, and Just Feels Right
I’ve been using the 13-inch MacBook Air for a while now, and honestly, it’s become more than just a laptop—it’s part of my daily rhythm. From the moment I unboxed it, I knew I made the right choice. It’s sleek, light, and incredibly easy to carry around, which is perfect for someone like me who doesn’t like being tied to one spot while working or relaxing. What really surprised me at first was how powerful this little thing is. I went with the M2 chip (and now the latest ones have the M3), and everything just runs buttery smooth. Whether I’m juggling emails, editing documents, using creative tools, or even streaming and browsing at the same time, it doesn’t slow down. No fan noise, no overheating, no lag—just quiet, effortless performance. It’s the kind of machine that fades into the background and lets you focus entirely on what you’re doing. The battery life? Unreal. I charge it once and forget about it for the rest of the day—sometimes even two. That’s been a game-changer, especially when I’m working from coffee shops, on the couch, or while traveling. I don’t have to hunt for outlets or stress over battery percentages anymore. The keyboard is one of my favorite things. It’s so comfortable to type on—quiet, responsive, and somehow just satisfying. The trackpad is still the best I’ve ever used. And the Retina display? Everything looks so crisp and vibrant, whether I’m watching a movie, editing photos, or just browsing the web. Another thing I really appreciate is how well it works with my other Apple devices. The handoff features, AirDrop, Messages, FaceTime—it’s all seamless. I can start a note on my iPhone and pick it up on my MacBook without even thinking about it. That kind of integration makes daily life a little easier and smoother, and I’ve come to depend on it. But what really makes the MacBook Air feel so personal to me is how reliable it is. It starts instantly, wakes up fast, and always does what I need it to do without fuss. It’s become my go-to for work, planning, watching shows, journaling—you name it. I’ve customized it to fit my flow, and it’s never let me down. Is it perfect? No laptop is. It has just two USB-C ports, so I did have to get a little hub for extra connections. And it’s not a hardcore gaming laptop or meant for heavy-duty video editing. But for what I use it for—everyday productivity, creativity, light media work, and everything in between—it’s more than enough. If you’re looking for a laptop that’s incredibly portable, powerful enough for real work, beautifully designed, and genuinely enjoyable to use, I can’t recommend the 13-inch MacBook Air enough. It feels like a quiet companion that’s always ready to help, and honestly, it just fits into my life perfectly.

Amazing MacBook – smooth, fast, and worth it!
I recently bought this MacBook, and I’m really impressed. The 13.6-inch screen looks super clear and bright, perfect for movies, photos, and school work. The performance is crazy fast — apps open instantly, and multitasking feels effortless. The battery life lasts all day, and it charges quickly too. I also love the slim design; it feels light but premium. The setup was easy, and macOS runs so smoothly with zero lag. Even after updating to the latest version, everything stayed stable. If you want a reliable, stylish, and powerful laptop that’s easy to use, this MacBook is definitely worth it. I’d recommend it 100%!

Sleek, Fast, and Reliable – Perfect Everyday
I recently purchased the MacBook Air, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. The design is incredibly sleek and lightweight, making it easy to carry around whether I’m working from home, at a café, or traveling. The performance is impressive — apps open quickly, multitasking is smooth, and the battery life lasts me all day without needing to recharge. The display is crisp and vibrant, which makes streaming, browsing, and working on documents a great experience. I also appreciate how quiet it runs, even when handling multiple tasks. Overall, this MacBook Air is the perfect balance of performance, portability, and design. Highly recommend it for students, professionals, or anyone who needs a reliable everyday laptop!
