    I got this laptop because i wanted something that was going to be a good investment for school. This is probably one of the best decisions i have made. This laptop is durable and the batter life is incredible.

    I switched from a PC windows based computer to the Mac and love that i switched. Love the ease of use and how elegant it looks. The new hot key commands are a little hard to get used to but you get used to it.

    Bought the Air because it's so lightweight, and I travel a lot. Chose the 13in over 11 mostly because I work on spreadsheets for work and find the larger screen easier to see. Mac always makes a great laptop!

    I was a little iffy about buying a Mac that wasn't from the Apple Store. But buying it from Best Buy was great! It works amazing, so fast and lightweight. I carry it with me at all times... my obsession!

    Fast, reliable, and smooth computer experience. I was replacing a Window's laptop of mine that was breaking down. I have been thoroughly satisfied with this product regarding its processing speed, battery life, and functionality. I am a little disappointed with the amount of memory available (128 GB), but I can dean deal with it.

    There is nothing better than a Macbook. The Air is thin, light and fast. It works like its supposed to the first time every time. It's very well made, and a prime example of "you get what you pay for"!!!

    I purchased this macbook air going in knowing it only had 4 gigabytes of ram. However, this laptop performs quite well. There are some times where I can feel the 4 gig limitations, but for everyday and some heavy tasks this is great. The glass trackpad is amazing; smooth, useful gestures, and is all around nice to use. The battery on this laptop is also amazing. It charges fast, and lasts a very long time.

    This is my first macbook and I can't tell you enough how much I love it! It works so much faster than my old PC laptop. I was extrememly impressed with my customer service as well. The salesperson that help me (Gregory O.) was very helpful and answered all my questions. I could not decide if I wanted the air or pro and he explained the differences so I could understand. He asked me what my intentions were for using the macbook and he was honest and told me the air would be perfect for me (he could have gotten much more money out of me by selling me the pro). This surprised me and I really appreciate that kind of character in a salesperson. This was my first time shopping at Best Buy and I will definitely be going back!

    Great MacBook for anything

    I originally purchased this MacBook because it was on sell for $799 and had to grab it before the price went back up. I bought it so I can do some programming with Xcode on the go since I couldn't get much done with my Mac Mini being stationary. It can handle everything I need it to do and I even use it to develop 3D models in Blender. I haven't done a lot of programming on it since the spring semester started so I haven't had the need to charge it as often. I use I to type papers, do research, and upload assignments. The battery life last a good amount of time. I usually have to charge it every 2-3 days. It's kind of on the heavy side due to the material it's made out of but all in all I love this MacBook!

    Great item. I bought it in woodland. The seller was so nice and helpful. He gave me discount for students. My MacBook air works perfect. It is beautiful and nice and much more cheaper than in apple store.

    I bought this for my girlfriend who was totally a windows babe all her life. Her previous machine was a lummox of an HP laptop. We're talking weight-lifting exercises just to carry the thing around. No more! Now she's all smiles! What can I say here except that the MacBook Air is generally acknowledged by reviewers to be one of the best general duty laptops for most folks. You can read an excellent review on the website: http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/the-best-laptop/ If, however, you are a gamer, or an industry mogul, you probably should look elsewhere, but for normal duty use, this is the fun machine to beat, at least if you are part of the Apple-sphere. Best Buy's price on this item was just too good to pass up!
