    This laptop has been everything we had hoped. Lightweight, keeps a charge, charges quickly and is easy to use. The picture is bright and clear. The keyboard works great. Very happy with our purchase.

    Perfect design for creative professionals.Fast, light and long lasting battery. Bulky laptops will largely become unnecessary in the near future, and this machine will be relevant for a while I think...

    I purchased my macbook air recently and have have nothing but great things to say about it! It is fast, compatible, solid, and not bulky. The battery life is great and I just love using it. I am a teacher and it works perfectly with my apple TV in my classroom!

    I bought this computer for our daughter to use while finishing high school and then for college in the fall. Very pleased with the battery life and speed of the computer. This computer is light weight and easily fits in her backpack, even with it's cover.

    I needed a new laptop for college, and knew I wanted an Apple computer, but I didn't want to break the bank -- this computer was the answer! I couldn't be happier with my new macbook air. It's light, fast, and so user-friendly! Thanks, Apple and Best Buy!

    Replaced a 2009 MacBook Pro with this lightweight, quick little machine. It is really nice to use. The migration was trickier than I expected and I wish now I had gotten a bit more storage, but I have nothing but good things to say about the performance.

    First apple computer and the change from a PC was interesting but pretty intuitive. Great size and weight, very portable and seems solid enough to stand up to being carted around. Best Buy honored a lower sales price after purchase without any hassle.

    Bought this for my daughter who is going to go to graduate school. She went through two other brand laptops during her 4 years of college. She loves it!!! Stays charged forever and is fast and so light. Easy for her to pack while she's biking around town.

    Macbook Air was a gift for my girlfriend and she loves it. It's easy to carry and not as heavy or bulky as the Macbook Pros. Although the display quality is not as great as the Pros, the fast Solid State Drive and super long battery life more than makes up for the loss of pixels. The price was also under $1000 (including student discount) which makes it super affordable for students and others looking for a reliable but cheaper laptop.

    After extensive research and testing computers in a number of stores, I finally decided to purchase a Macbook Air. I don't have an iPhone and still love this computer. The battery lasts a long time, the speed is fantastic and the portability is great!

    The laptop is very light but it packs a very powerful punch. The battery lives for days with to turning it off and it only take a half hour to fully charge when dead. The speakers are very clear, a little low but for the size its understandable

    This is an amazing laptop. It is the right size to carry a long anywhere and it is very fast. I am a collage student and I use it everyday for my school work. I highly recommend it to anyone not just students. It is very simple to use as well.

    I have used both Windows and Mac products for years and this is the best laptop I have seen in terms of size, weight and performance. Not to mention that the price was very competitive, especially given the additional sale and student discounts.

    I could not ask for more out of this laptop. It's lightweight, fast and best of all does not run hot like any of my other machines. I can sit it on my lap and work without burning my leg.

    I have a 15.4" MacBook Pro, and a 21" iMac that I use for Photography and various things, but I needed something portable and lighter than my MacBook Pro to carry to and from school. I am in college and my backpack is heavy as it is. This MacBook Air is perfect, it performs well and is really light. I love my new MacBook Air so much that I bought a second one for my wife, and one for my sister as well who are both is college. If it is in your budget, don't hesitate. You will spend the same amount of money on a decent pc, that will not perform as well as this, trust me, I know from experience. Do yourself a favor and get one right now, you won't regret it!

    This Macbook Air is just the laptop I was looking for. Not only is it great for me to use at home on the bed because of how lightweight it is, it will be great to travel with when school starts next year. It's super fast and easy to use.

    My first Apple computer, and extremely happy with the purchase so far. Lightweight, fast, great battery life - all prerequisites I had for a laptop I'd have to carry around campus and commuting on the subway and the Air hasn't disappointed.

    I love the MacBook Air; it is so light and sleek. While I purchased the 13" screen, I would have been more than fine with the 11". The laptop takes up minimal space in my bag, making it perfect for traveling and taking with me on the go.

    These things are fast, light, and work really well straight out of the box. I was worried I'd miss the memory and the optical drive, but I just don't. This computer is super stable and portable and it does everything I need it to do.
