    My first MacBook and I’m loving it. Very fast, easy to use and not heavy at all. The screen size is perfect. Not too big or too small.

    Amazing quality and it works really well. I like the size & the aluminum frame. It’s super light but feels rugged. Great battery life.

    This is my 5th laptop, but my first Mac. I have a feeling it’s going to last quite a while. The battery life is excellent, web cam is great for zoom calls with work or FaceTime with family. The backlit keyboard and lightweight body are my favorite features. Not too much internal memory, but not a problem when it’s for personal use and you can use OneDrive or the cloud to store what you need. I’ll only ever buy Mac computers from here on out.

    This was a great buy for Black Friday. The computer does everything I need. You may want to get an external hard drive since it has smaller storage but for browsing the web and doing spreadsheets it is a perfect reliable option

    This bare-bones model MacBook Air is amazing. This is our 'go-to' device for new teachers/admins at our school. The devices...just work! You won't get the same speed, reliability, and portability with a Windows product! Need to add a printer or a network - bam! Done - no need to call the IT department. Plus, if you have ?s about anything - Apple customer support is the very best in the business!

    This laptop has been good so far. It’s light enough to carry around everywhere, and processes everything at a good speed. The only downside I’ve observed is that it tends to heat up very fast, but that’s fine for my purposes

    I had always planned on getting a new laptop at some point, but never thought I would be able to afford a Mac. I am so glad that I found the right deals and that I took the time to save up before buying this computer. It’s super portable, light, and the battery life is AMAZING! Perfect for me to take to class or unplug while I spend hours on my assignments at home! I love this computer!!

    My daughter loves it. it is light and sturdy. it is great to carry to college classes. she can pair her iPhone too. The speed and functionality of the MacBook Air is really good. There are some cases to customize the look of it which makes it a big deal among the younger generations since basically you can change the outside appearance to match their individual styles.

    I bought MacBook Air for my daughter as she started her undergrad. She loves it, well easy to use, excellent features, very light weight. I also got free Beats (worth $300) along with McBook Air with Student discount.

    My older daughter had a older model so we decided to buy my younger daughter the newer model. The machine is light weight and the speed is fabulous. Great for students and a great price. (No worries about viruses)

    Bought this laptop for college because the battery life on my previous laptop was terrible. Both the battery AND the speed of this laptop blow every laptop I’ve had out of the water. Definitely would recommend!

    I bought this for my granddaughter to replace the Chromebook assigned her by the school (heavy and SLOW). She is so happy. It is super fast and lightweight. She can take it to college with her in two years.

    It fills up really fast with photos and videos which was my sole purpose for the laptop(and homework) but you can always just get more storage. Battery life is really good. It’s much faster than my last laptop. It’s easy to use. I love the investment I made.

    The battery will last you all day (so if you're in school and use it in class where you're not always sitting by an outlet, its perfect!) It also loads up fast and is easy to use! Takes some getting used to if you have always used windows, but I definitely won't be going back to windows ever again after using this! Overall, its just a great quality computer.
