    Perfect size and weight. I do various work on my laptop and this is the best one I've used thus far that runs so smoothly. There have never been any issues with it's performance. The M1 makes it so much faster than my last MacBook Air.

    The Apple Macbook Air is very durable, fast, and reliable for anyone looking to do “non-pro” stuff such as using it for school, office job, etc.

    Love my new computer. My old one was 9 years old and this new MacBook Air is terrific. Very glad we made the purchase, working with Best Buys was a great experience also. My new Mac Air is so quick its unbelievable. Very easy to set up, even for someone "technically challenged".

    Bought for nursing school and love it. It’s small enough to be portable yet still does a lot. Debated between this and pro and ultimately happy with my decision.

    Very pleased with new M1 chip in terms of performance. Only reason I am returning this MBA is Best Buy wouldn't price match the 6% Employee Discount from Apple Store on Macbooks.

    This was a gift from my son who now works remotely with 4 graders. The laptop has the features and power to accommodate the demands of hair job. Further, our Geek Squad service agreement has enabled him to transfer all of the data from his old laptop. Just in time for the New Year.

    My son needed a new computer as he starts off high school. This MBA is functional, appropriate size for his backpack and has all the functions he needs and more for his classes including his engineering and science courses.

    I got this product for school and it has not disappointed me ever. Its such a small and powerful machine that I dont know what to say how powerful it is. The best part is that it remains so cool even when it does not have a fan!! how is this possible! AMAZING !!!

    Best laptop I’ve ever purchased. When you turn it on for the first time; it WORKS. I use Blender quite a bit on my MacBook Air, which benefits a lot from the M1 chip. I ended up using this laptop for more than I anticipated.
