    I literally cannot find any end-user difference between this and my MacBook Pro. If you’re using this for work or school, I highly recommend it!

    Leaps and bounds faster than my previous Intel based MacBook Pro 13". Apple delivered on their promise with their own silicon and at this point I would never go back to Intel. I have not run into a single program that will not run at least as good as it did on the old Intel Macs.

    Met my expectations and beyond. I was scared of getting a new mac because i didnt want to give up my 2011 macbook pro with all of its ports and cd drive. Despite having less in the ways of access ports i was very pleased with the performance of this laptop.

    Amazed at how fast this thing is compared to the last gen. Even in 2023 this thing is incredibly fast for an everyday device. MacOS is not my preferred OS but you can't deny that it just works.

    Solid build laptop, without any noise, speakers are so much better than my old Inspiron 5. This is best for web browsing and light processing however, but should last longer than Windows laptops.

    Never owned or used an Apple computer before, but having the iPhone it only took me a few days to get used to. I love that anything I can see on the phone I can also see on the MacBook through the cloud. It’s been useful already and easy to use!

    Light weight and reliable. I had to buy a replacement for my son’s whose MacBook Pro with more expensive customizations broke. This is really the best thing for high school students to use. Highly recommend.

    What a bargain to buy a brand new Apple Air for what a refurbished one would cost, Best Buy made it so easy to purshase and have this item waiting for me when I went to the store to pick it up, I might have been in the store for 3 minutes. I love Best Buy
