    For the price, this is probably one of if not the best machine money can buy. The power of the M1 chip is fantastic and it beats out my Intel MacBook Pro on a few things. I do miss my MacBook Pro when compiling programs sometimes as the MacBook Air can struggle at times but this is not a MacBook Pro, so that isn't this laptop's job. Overall, fantastic machine.

    I was a bit leery of buying the MacBook Air at first because I’ve had a MacBook Pro for 11 years and was very pleased with its performance. I have to say that I’m very happy about my MacBook Air purchase. I’m able to do everything I need to on the air and haven’t seen any huge differences. I like the lower price as well. Very satisfied with the MacBook Air.

    Sleek and easy to use. Perfect for on the go use and compliments a chic home office nicely. Gold is more of a rose hue than true gold however. I would recommend this laptop to a college student or someone who travels often for work. Perfect for a plane ride. I also love the touch pad feature for easy logins and extra security. Nice upgrade from my 8 year old MacBook.

    12-30-23 I received a new Mac for Christmas. This is my 2nd one and I absolutely love the Mac! I had some of my own issues with file recovery and transfer and needed some expert advice so I made an appt. with the Geek Squad at the Saratoga Springs, NY store where the purchase was made, in hopes that these issues might get resolved. Brandon Watson, Advance Repair Technician, was the person that assisted me. Brandon was not only extremely knowledge, but very attentive to my anxieties about resolving my computer problems. Brandon did resolve all of my computer issues with a very pleasant and calm demeanor. I would highly recommend Brandon and give him an overall rating of 10. Thank you Brandon!

    Wanted a Apple computer since I purchased a I phone. It was time for a new computer and bought the MacBook Air 13.3 w/M1 chip. The sales people at Best Buy said this model would be perfect for me. I don't game, but play videos and do mostly basic things. I do like speed and the M1 chip is very fast from screen to screen. Had no problems with switch from Microsoft.

    Bought this for my son. He started his first year of college and needed a laptop. This has been perfect as he also into creating digital media. It’s fast, sleek, reliable and was very easy to set up. After using this, I’ll definitely pick up another one when it’s time to upgrade my next laptop.
