I've never thought I was ever going to get a MacBook as I was always a Windows User. However, since I've been working IT Support for Harvard University, many of my end users are on MacBooks, and after working on them and setting up dozens, I really enjoyed the macOS. So, it was time for me to get myself one and I wasn't disappointed at all. The M4 chip is amazing. Since it has more power than the M3 chip, it can thermal throttle easier, but this won't be an issue for the average user. Upon setup, I made sure my macOS was updated to the latest macOS Sequoira 15.3.2 and double-checked the battery cycle which was 2. This is normal because factory testing is needed for quality purposes, so do not be alarmed. I already use about 16-17GBs of RAM daily so the 24GBs of RAM is a must-have for my use (ServiceNow, Outlook, multiple different IT tabs, Garageband, etc). I appreciate that with the M4 MacBook Air, you can extend to two monitors NOW with the internal display open versus the M3 MacBook Air where you need the internal display closed. Sadly, I did chip the corner of my paint because a water bottle knocked it a bit. I bought my MacBook Air for about $1,200 versus the original $1,399 because I had plenty of reward points earned using my MyBestBuy Via Credit card and with my plus membership, it gave me another $50 off which was sweet. I also financed it interest-free for the next two years.

I’ve never used a MacBook before but this was my first one. The setup and learning process was quite easy and I got it at a great price too! The laptop itself is so well built and handles everyday simple tasks with ease. I use this as my secondary laptop for simple tasks and more heavy tasks I have another laptop for that. This is the perfect size and weight too. Love the design and functionality. I’m in college and this is perfect to carry around in my bag. I’d definitely recommend this to any college goer that isn’t doing super intensive heavy tasks like design software or lots of editing etc. It is solid machine for a solid price.

The new m4 MacBook Air is truly a powerhouse, just about anything you throw at it, it’ll handle with ease. Perfect for photo editing, and with the 24GB’s in RAM it’ll handle an immense amount of multi-tasking. For such a thin computer, and this thing is thin (wow), it never over heats, is never loud, and is as portable as your personal mobile device. The only drawback is the lack of available ports, but I suppose that’s the sacrifice you make for the compact and discreet design. I mean when you think about it your iPhone or your IPad has only one, the natural step-up for this form factor would be to have 2, and of course slightly more for a pro model. The MagSafe charger is a wonder, and I’m beginning to wonder why other computer manufacturers haven’t begun to adopt similar designs. For heavy AI workloads or for complex video editing consider a MacBook Pro model as the GPU on the air only runs 10cores, and the m4 pro runs 16-20, (even more for M4 max). As always though Apple maintains its place as the number one producer of not only the most powerful tech but also the most consumer friendly and usable products. This is a must have, and if you’ve been on the fence for awhile about making the switch from Windows to Mac OS this is the time to do so with this product as your entry point.
