    So far my MacBook M4 has been amazing. Lightning speed and great performance. This might be a settings configuration that i need to set up but only thing I’m not thrilled about is the loss of the tap responsiveness. Now you actively have to click to select something. Besides that…i have zero complaints for now!

    This laptop hits the sweet spot — powerful, portable, beautiful, and future-proof. Whether you're a student, professional, or just need a reliable everyday machine, the M4 MacBook Air with 16GB RAM is a smart investment. Would definitely recommend — and I’d buy it again in a heartbeat!

    I didn’t realize how bad my old laptop was until buying this upgrade! I’ve only had for a month, but the battery life is incredible and processor has worked great for my needs (just personal use, but I usually have multiple tabs/apps open at any given time). Additionally, the team was so easy to work with and made the trade in process super quick and easy. All in all, no complaints!

    As someone who owned a M1 MacBook Air and was very happy with it I didn’t expect the M4 to be much different from that but I was pleasantly surprised that it offers even better performance and battery life and for $800 it was as cheap as a Windows laptop.

    Nursing School Laptop!

    I bought this MacBook air for nursing school. One thing that drew me to buying a MacBook functionality wise was how everything from my IPhone and IPad could be transferred over within two clicks! It has been very handy for note documents, uploading documents and such. Aesthetics wise, it’s beautiful! I got the starlight version, though I did debate on the midnight. I chose starlight due to the fingerprint streaks being overly present, in my opinion, on the darker model. I still need to clean my macbook screen regularly because fingerprints do show quite a bit, but nothing too difficult to do! It runs beautifully, quickly and has yet to give me a problem running any application for school.

    I love my MacBook Air. It's beautiful, colored, lightweight and powerful. I've wanted a new MacBook for a long time now and It doesn't dissappoint. I'm able to do everything I need plus much more. all of my tech is apple so it sinks with all of my devices automatically. I placed my order on BestBuy to do curbside pick-up, I got real-time updates as to when it would be ready, notified them once I was parked and the young man politely brought it to my car. I was back home in less than 20 mins. Best Buy is my go-to store for all of my electronic being the the store is neat and easy to navigate, the staff is knowledgeable and kind and checkout is a breeze.

    Loving this computer. It's my first MacBook that I've bought and I'm only sad I didn't get one sooner when I was in college! Literally everything about it is awesome. Battery life, screen, power, etc. AND I CAN USE MY IPAD AS A SECOND MONITOR!!!

    I was considering getting either the Surface or the ProArt, but ultimately, choosing the MacBook Air turned out to be a great decision for me. If the MacBook Air had come with 8GB of RAM minimum and needed to be upgraded, there’s a good chance I would’ve gone with ProArt instead which has more RAM and Storage. I’ve been using the MacBook Air for about a month now and have had no issues. The battery life is excellent, and it’s incredibly lightweight—perfect for me since I travel frequently for work. It really helps reduce the weight and clutter in my bag. The only downside I’ve encountered is that some Windows-specific applications I previously used aren’t compatible with macOS. However, I’m working on finding suitable alternatives, so it's not a major problem. As for storage, I initially considered the 512GB model, but since I store most of my files in the cloud, the base storage has been more than sufficient. Overall, this laptop has been a perfect match for both my work and everyday use.

    The MacBook Air M4 is sleek and stylish. I was coming from an M1 that I was extraordinarily happy with but couldn’t pass up the value of the M4 with the added bonus of getting a couple more years of support. Despite the M1 still being a very viable solution in 2026, the M4 doesn’t fix what isn’t broken. The 16GB of ram is a nice change and for someone like me who is going to be using this laptop to run theatre tech management software, it will help a great deal. I would technically give my review a 4.5 as the rumor is that soon Apple will be releasing new MacBooks with fun colors. I like fun colors! But that’s what dBrand skins are for, I guess.

    The performance is great, it’s light weight, and the color is very nice. If you like Apple and just want a simpler version of a Mac, this is the way to go.

    I'm an Apple fan and this is an upgrade from my previous MacBook Air. It's light, fast,and I favor the midnight blue. Cost $799 - my return. I use it for personal use.
