    It is all a matter of getting used to it. Once that occurs, I am sure I will love it. It is replacing a 10 year old laptop and a 7 year old iPad so it is so advancd to what this 80 year old lady is. Love a Apple products!

    I got this computer for school and it is really great. It is super comfortable for the everyday work. You definitely don’t need the latest model of MacBook. If you just need it for basic things, save some money and get this Mac.

    The transition from PC to Mac was not as difficult as I thought it might be. Some of the interactions are different from the PC, though not necessarily better or more intuitive. The quality of the precision hardware is impressive and functional. Connecting peripherals was absolutely painless. I'm still learning about the problems I will encounter as I move my photos from a Windows based external hard drive over to the Mac. Could be challenging.

    Good mac for its price and specs! The design itself is a little dated, though.

    The quality of the products is as always as expected from Apple. Great response, the solid state drive is fast from the previous model, love the usb and its use and the Mac OS system is extremely solid, forgetting windows already !!!!

    I bought this for my daughter's birthday as a surprise. In reality, I was surprised by the sales price!!! Thank you Best Buy for saving me a ton of money on this. Of course the Macbook Air is a winner...

    Love how light this computer is. Apple tends to take away parts of their computers and on the 2019 Air, they removed the USB ports, so I am so glad I was able to get an older model! I’m really enjoying this computer.

    I have no complaints about this laptop. I’ve used mainly windows in the past and wasn’t sure how user friendly Mac would be but I must admit it’s been very easy to navigate. I’ve gotten everything I needed from this purchase. :)

    I purchased the macbook for myself a few years ago and was very pleased with it so I decided to purchase one for my grandson whom is attending college to replace the hp I originally purchased for him. Really great buy.

    I got this laptop for my wife for Christmas and she loves it. The best thing about it is that it is the older model so you can still plug usb cords straight into the laptop with out buying an extra attachment.

    So far so good. I am going over all that it does. I will say, don't ever buy one that doesn't have a Solid State Drive (SSD). I bought a MacBook Pro a couple years ago without, and I regret it. This has it, and is so much faster that I am stunned. Went with the 128gb because I have plenty of cloud storage and if I need more, I will simply pick up an external drive that will give me way more memory for a lot less than if I bought a Mac with half of that much.

    My daughter has been a using Windows but wanted to switch to a Mac when she goes to college next year. We bought her this MacBook Air a year in advance so she will be completely comfortable with the new OS before she enters college.

    I got the MacBook Air to replace my 2011 MacBook Pro. It is not as powerful but does all that I need it to. The only negative is that it doesn’t have a CD drive so I can’t install Microsoft office that I had from my other computer.
