    I purchased this MacBook for my sister to help with her schooling and she couldn’t be happier with her new laptop. I have a MacBook and used it for school and it was always reliable and efficient and was/is so easy to use that I knew my sister would love one, therefore I purchased one for her and she now feels similar to me that Apple laptops are the best.

    I have had many laptops, especially recently. Surface Pro, Lenovo Yoga, Chromebook, etc. The speed, battery life, and performance of the MacBook Air is unrivaled. If you want a quick machine for the best price, this is it.

    Had it for about a month now and absolutely no complaints. I spent 4 days comparing and looking for a laptop I could rely on. For some reason I was adamant on NOT getting a Mac but now i‘m glad I did. No loud fans, keyboard is nice, its lightweight. Battery is good. Webcam is good. Speed is there. The screen is great, love how you can control the brightness right from the keyboard. Its the safest laptop to get, especially if you’re like me, I’m not a tech nerd but I had a checklist of basic things and this laptop checked off all of them. Ive never had a Mac before and my first experience has been great. I also really appreciate this price from bestbuy.

    This is a very light weight computer, which makes it very portable. Also compact so you can fit it in a large purse. Love that it doesn't seem to bog down from too many programs bring open. Would highly recommend.

    I bought this for a friend who has been wanting to replace her broken laptop. The Air is super light and fast but the screen resolution isn't as great as the MacBook Pro Retina's screen, which I am use to looking at but if you never had the Retina display on your laptop, you'd never notice the difference. Definitely still a solid Apple product.

    This is the 2nd Macbook Air I have owned and a bit of an upgrade from my 11.6 inch 2013 Macbook Air. I love the speed of the SSD drive, the stability of the OS and the fact that the battery can last for almost a full day of work without needing to be charged. Would recommend for anyone that needs a lightweight laptop with long battery life.

    I am a professional development consultant. I inadvertently left my computer on a plane. As soon as I arrived in Nashville I went to the closest Best Buy and bought what I felt was a reasonably priced computer. My computer was found and returned but I’m in love with the size, speed and functionality of the MacBook Air.

    Very fast, less storage

    The MacBook is sleek, well-built, thin. This the fastest computer I've ever owned. It's also got great battery life; I only need to charge it once or twice a week (about 1-2 hours per charge!). This is definitely the type of computer you want for mobility and speed. However, the lack of storage is an issue for me. Perhaps I've been spoiled by my older, bulkier, slower 1 TB Acer. Having room only for documents and no other media is a little frustrating. An easy fix for this shortcoming is to use external storage or Cloud storage, if you're willing to spend more. Additionally, I've dropped and whacked this computer more than any other--it slides right out of my hands because it's so thin and smooth! As I've said before, it's well-built--to withstand low impact damage. Thus I highly recommend buying an outer shell, one that isn't thin or brittle, subject to damage.

    The MacBook Air was just what I was looking for in a laptop. The computer is great to carry around and is slim enough to fit into my carrying case for work. The processor is fast and keeps up with all of my needs. Very highly recommend this computer for anyone looking for a great laptop that is user friendly.

    This computer is everything a student would need- lightweight, quiet, fast, efficient, and most important, reliable. I've had Windows computers which have failed me but Apple has never let me down. So, when it was time for a new computer, I turned to Best Buy and found this beast at the low, low price of $750. If you can find it around the same, it's a phenomenal deal. No need for dongles. Still has camera SD slot. Battery lasts for over 12 hours for me. Overall, it's a phenomenal computer at a fraction of the cost that others are paying. If you have the funds, you won't be disappointed.
