This laptop was easy to setup and sync with my existing Apple products. This is my first Apple computer, so it's taking some time to get fully used to the operating system, but it is fairly intuitive and easy to learn. Love the size and weight - very portable.

I bought this computer for my husband. He loves the slimness and the size. It's also light weight and easy to take on trips. He had no trouble figuring how to use the computer. Best computer ever!

I love this product, it is light, and durable. I know the reason that it is light is because of the lack of CD drive, but this computer is light enough to carry in a handbag if space permits.

Many of us buy more computer than we need. Unless you are using intense software, this computer will still be more than you need! It's fast, portable and beautiful.
Could not be happier.

Apple MacAirbook works well. Fast, great battery life, lit keyboard, very light and no issues at all. The keyboard is much better when you switch the setting so it does not require so much pressure to click. Overall, very pleased!

I've been wanting to convert from Windows to MAC for awhile and so glad I did. This is a great laptop! No complaints so far and highly recommend it to anyone who is remotely interested in an Apple product.

Full disclosure, this is a replacement for my old MacBook, so the Migration Assistant made moving my content and programs easy. I do love the new Yosemite OS which allows seamless transition between apps on my iPhone and iPad with the MacBook Air. On to the laptop -- it's slick, light and the battery life is really unbelievable. The memory and storage are literally twice of that of my old MacBook. No problems whatsoever with the hardware or software. I don't have time for fiddling around with my computer, so I appreciate that Apple products just *work*.

The macbook air was a perfect replacement for my previous macbook, which I had for 7 years. It's beautiful, light weight, fast, and extremely easy to use. A great product and piece of equipment.

My wife loves her MAC. It is fast light weight and user friendly. This is the 5th lap top for her and the MAC is by far her favorite.

Super thin & light weight

Amazing...all this tech in a very thin & super light weight package. Screen (image/video) is as clear & crisp as anything I've seen on the market. Keyboard has a very high quality feel with appropriately sized keys that provide the perfect amount of spring tension. Battery life has been great...running for hours; far longer than I've needed without being plugged in. While some complain about the cooling fan being too loud, I have only heard the fan run once over the last couple months...yes, it is noticeable, but not unacceptably loud. Out of the box startup was easy and intuitive.
This is our first MacBook and very likely not our last.

Went from a MacBook pro to the air and I couldn't be happier. Battery lasts longer, runs faster, way lighter and easier to haul around campus and take notes on

Lightweight, fast processor speed, large hard drive. sleek look--all of these are features which were important to me. I travel a lot as a professor, and wanted something that was powerful enough to handle my work, but lightweight enough to not weigh me down. This is the perfect combination of those factors.

I love my laptop. It is lightweight which makes it very easy to carry it to school or anywhere else I need to take it. Since it is thin and small I am able to carry it in almost all of my purses which is convenient. It loads very quickly and I have yet to have one problem with it - I bought it about five months ago. The only thing I wish it had is a cd or dvd player installed but that is not a big problem because you can easily buy one to attach to it or just use Netflix. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.

The 2nd battery on my old PC was wearing out and I tried one of the new Windows 8 laptops. It was NOT what I wanted. Microsoft seemed like they're marketing for social media and not for business applications. I noticed more associates with Macs and when I saw that Apple was about to change the MacAir and take away the USB ports I bought tjis one. Couldn't be happier! Its a quality product, light and easy to operate. The only thing I don't like is the Quicken software - not as good as on the PC. But thats not Apples fault.

You cannot go wrong with the MacBook Air. This laptop is so lightweight and easy to use. Being a former HP user, I was at first upset there was no cd/dvd drive however I bought the SuperDrive and all my problems were solved. Also, extra flash storage is able to be purchased! Highly recommend!
