    I am a freshman going into college, my new MacBook does everything I need. Very fast and hoping it will last me around four years. Very satisfied and worth the money I paid.

    Although the screen is smaller the picture quality is amazing and the ease of using an apple is great! I had my old MacBook for just shy of 10 years, it still runs despite a dead battery, I just needed something fresh for graduate school. Lite and easy to carry.

    I've owned a MacBook Pro w/retina, a 12" Mac, a 13.3" Air and now an 11.6" Air. I've loved them all! This Mac is a great computer. It is lightweight but very fast. No Retina display but still a great device. And to make it even better I got it on sale for 200 bucks off, or $700! A brand new latest edition MacBook Air for a little over $700 out the door?! I feel like I got a steal! If you don't mind a 11.6" screen without Retina display you will love this Air.

    I really like the Mac Apple air 11.6 (mini) laptop. The lightweight characteristic added to it's portability combines the function of a laptop but works like a tablet. Apple products are manufactured for durability and the battery life well surpasses a tablet.

    This laptop is the perfect side for absolute mobility. It's light and fast, and even with a snap-on case it keeps a very low profile. Great machine.

    The MacBook Air is a beautiful, refined piece of technology. Thin and light, it opens with a perfect balance and exudes quality and class. If it had a Touchscreen, it would be untouchable!

    I originally bought the MacBook Air 11.6", but realized the computer was way too small. I exchanged it for the 13" MacBook Air and I love it!! It is the perfect size, the batter life is longer, and it is perfect for my everyday needs.

    I bought this for my daughter who's attending college this fall. She wanted a machine that was light and had a good battery life so she could carry it around with her all day at school, and this fits the bill.

    We bouight the Mac AIR 11" for my daughter's freshman year, and so far, she loves it. The battery lasts a long time, and the size is just right for class. Best Buy had a great price, and great service, and the computer was available.

    For the past 8+ years I have wanted a MacBook but I always thought I couldn't afford one. Well with the help of a Best Buy card I was able to purchase the laptop of my dreams. I love it! So lightweight, fast, and love the interface.

    I use a desktop for graphic + web design, but wanted something more portable so I could handle social media, emails, and other light tasks without being strapped to my desk. Laptop is light, small, and battery life is amazing.

    Getting use to an Apple product

    I am enjoying my MacBook Air. I love the size and weight - it serves my needs here at college nicely. This is my first Mac and it has taken a bit to get use to it. What I don't care for is it did not come with a place for my HDMI cord. Cost me $50 to buy extra accessories it is a bit inconvenient to be limited with only being able to purchase apple products.. Hence the 4 stars and not 5.

    I've had a great time with my first Macbook, it suites my needs perfectly. It's size is small enough to carry whenever I want and it's powerful enough to handle my M43 photo processing needs. Couldn't be happier!

    Bought this laptop for my high school student. I wanted something dependable and light to carry in a backpack. There was no trouble switching to a smaller screen or the Mac operating system. Great product!
