    Bought a MacBook Air a couple of years ago for our daughter to use in High School. It has preformed flawlessly! Now that our son will be starting it was a no-brainer to get him one too. Never had issues and the battery stayed charged all day during school!

    It’a been a long time since I had an Apple laptop or desktop and now that I have this MacBook Air I don’t understand why it took me so long to switch back from a Windows laptop. If nothing else, the pure speed of this laptop blows away any Windows device.

    This was a Christmas gift for my daughter in law and grandson. They loved loved loved it. I have the old Mac Book Pro and was going to give them it but when i saw the new apple air and how light weight it was it was a no brainer. Love to have one myself.

    I needed to replace my old laptop, which was given to me by an employer and then given to me to keep when I left that company. I had a laptop for about 6 years that I didn't pay for, so I couldn't complain when it finally died and I needed a new one. This 2017 MacBook Air so far is great - lighter than my old MacBook Pro and quicker, and is great for what I use it for: basic internet surfing and shopping, accessing email and work files, working on documents, occasional video watching.

    8GB of memory, a fifth-generation Intel Core processor, Thunderbolt 2, great built-in apps, and all-day battery life.* It’s thin, light, and durable.

    Good basic Macbook

    Wanted a Mac for the kids to support their academics. I have lots of Windows experience, but it was time for some no frills, and I didn't want to get into continued set up and maintenance required of Windows/PCs. Kids familiar with iPads from their middle school, so just a small leap. Good basic unit. Sale price, and student discount put the expensive Apple/Mac in price range. I am reading that this may be the last of this generation of Macbooks, prior to refresh/redesign, so I may already be on last generation, but so far so good, for the current needs. Wish I could afford one with more memory (than 128G internal/flash), but on a budget. The screen isn't the 'retina'?, but it is clear and the 13" size is just right tradeoff between portability and view-ability, IMO. No regrets. Giving 4 stars, because Apples/Mac are overpriced, IMO.

    This is the first Apple computer I have used and owned. I have had many apple products over the years and never could justify paying for a laptop of their price. I previously owned a Toshiba laptop and had that for 10+ years. No complaints, just a simple laptop. I have used my Mac everyday for the past two weeks and I absolutely love it. It has surpassed my expectations and I highly recommend it. Great design, slim, light weight, sleek aluminum body. Recommend buying extras to go with product : body cover, screen cover, sd card expansion, carrying case.

    This is a great laptop for the average user. I went from a 2010 MacBook pro... which still works fine, but lacks a little in battery life and is on the clunky side compared to what's available today... to this, and it covers all my basic needs. The size and weight of this is also a great perk. The battery life is also impressive. If you are just looking for a Mac that covers all of your basic functions I would definitely recommend. I also got this on sale for $250 off, which makes it that much better.

    I have purchased my my laptops but never a MacBook. I needing something I could use for personal use and that was compatible for work when needing to work from home. I couldn’t have found anything better. This does exactly what I need. It’s very lightweight and has a great battery life. Very satisfied with my purchase. Would highly recommend and would definitely purchase again.

    I've always had PC's, but decided I wanted a computer that I could connect with my iPhone. I also wanted a computer that was light enough for me to carry to class and around campus! And it is super easy to run and figure out where things are!
