    You don't get what you pay for; poor battery life

    While aesthetically pleasing, the laptop does not perform to the level one would expect for the price tag. The brushed metal casing/finish is great and feels smooth below the palms, the touch bar is helpful for certain functions and spellchecking, the interface is sleek and easy to use as one would expect with an apple product. Less than 3 months into using the laptop I am already experiencing the "spinning rainbow wheel of death" on a pretty regular basis, and having different applications stall out or be "unresponsive" on a regular basis. The performance of the M1 chip is nothing to be impressed with, and performs at the same level if not below an i5 processing chip that you would find in a regular PC laptop. The most frustrating part of this laptop would have to be the battery life. I use zoom, an internal messaging platform, and a project management tool for work and the battery probably lasts for about 5-6 hours MAX before needing to be plugged in again and re-charged. I would strongly encourage anyone who has a $800-$1000+ budget to explore the other brands that exist in the PC world, you are likely to find a tremendous amount of greater value for the price.

    I'm so glad I decided to finally bite the bullet and get a MacBook. I've been wanting one for over 5 years and finally decided to upgrade from an HP! The switch was super easy, and the employee who helped me was so easy to talk to and helpful. I highly recommend, especially for work or school! Also, THE BATTERY LIFE. Amazing!!!

    My third MacBook Air - 2012 still going strong, 2020 had the logic board crash, so we got this one on Black Friday. Basic configuration is plenty for us and home use. Fast and easy to use - great computer!

    perfect in every way! i’ve gone back and forth with myself for years about getting a macbook, i’ve always been an apple person so i knew i’d be happy with it. i’ve used ipad’s majority of my teenage/adulthood and i don’t think i’ll go back.

    I went from a Chromebook to the MacBook and what a difference. Great performance and synced with everything on iCloud. Takes some getting use to the green/yellow/red buttons to expand/minimize/close the pop up or whatever is being done. Happy with the product so far. Only negative would be that I wish the screen was a little larger.

    I like this laptop; I was debating whether to get a Mac or another Windows computer... I had several HP Pavilions, which were less expensive because I couldn't justify spending more than $500 on a laptop at the time. When I bought a Mac instead, it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I love this laptop.

    Well built, blazingly fast, amazing trackpad, decent keyboard, and the M1 chip makes a world of difference. Got this during a sale and Best Buy always comes through with those once in a blue moon crazy deals. Still offering 256gb as base memory and 8gb is rather paltry, even though the M1 is fast, would've wanted a bump up in SSD and RAM.
