    Purchased this laptop with 4 other family members for our baby cousin who was graduating from high school and needed a laptop of her own to take with her. She has been using it well for 2 years with no issues. Best laptop for college students! Its light and works well.

    I have been wanting a max book for a long time and now that I got a great deal on one I couldn't pass up the opportunity. It was an open box refurb. But it looked brand new when I got it. So far it's been one of the best laptops I've had and I am a student in computer science.

    This is my first MacBook, been a life long PC user. There is a learning curve for shortcut commands and general navigation; however, it doesn't crash nearly as much as Windows OS and is much faster processing. So far so good!

    I had purchased a laptop running windows 10 that I found to be very complicated. I love how easy the MacBook is to use and how simple it is to sync to everything we have. ( router, printer, iPhones ) We love all the apple products. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

    I had a MacBook Air but it was a few years old so I decided to upgrade and get a new one. This one has a bigger screen and more memory. And Siri on it. It's still very effective for me. And they have the Mac OS version of Microsoft Suite which is pretty helpful as well.

    I did a lot of research before I decided on a laptop. I was not sure which one would work the best for law school. I am really happy with this laptop. It works perfectly for what I needed. I have the ability to have a ton of programs working at one time with no issue.

    MacBook Air 13" -Great Size

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Tried the 11" model because it was cheaper, but I really appreciate the extra 2" in the screen size. Also allows for an SD Card reader in the case. I think an extra USB as well. Don't buy a 128 G HD though if you can afford not to, it will fill up fast with photos & videos.

    I'm a college student and I really needed a new computer asap before the semester began. I've searched for so many reviews on the MacBook Air and it definitely lives up to it's standards. I also have an iPhone so it's great to have everything automatically saved into my Mac.

    Purchased this Macbook Air for my wife, Mine being a 2013 model and I still am getting 8-10 hrs on battery after being years old. In my opinion there is no laptop/note book out there that stands out better. For everyday surfing and computing needs it is hard to beat this.

    Great laptop for current Apple users

    If you've already bought into the Apple ecosystem, this is a solid laptop to get. I feel like it was worth it for the sale price I paid for it. I'm not sure I would have paid full price, however. The best part about this laptop is being able to text from it, at least in my opinion. It's the feature I love the most. It runs great. The SSD is solid, and I'm using a 50 GB iCloud subscription to help offset the low hard drive space. That is somewhat of a con, but I already had the iCloud subscription before I bought the laptop.

    Perfect for the student off to college. Very portable, good screen, sturdy, good price point. I am on my second and I use it in my consulting business. Gave old one to daughter years ago and it is still running strong. Just bought new one for graduating granddaughter.

    This is my 2nd MacBook Air and is exactly as described and similar to the one I originally had. Unfortunately, my last Air took a soccer ball to the screen and that was that. BestBuy had competitive pricing and shipping rates, so in the end, that was the decision maker.

    I had mixed reviews on a mac. But mostly I heard that though it is expensive, it is 100% worth it and I couldn't agree more! I LOVE my mac book air! Money well spent! It takes a little getting use to but it runs so much more smoothly and it's so easy to nagivare around!

    It's a good computer to use but the screen is lackluster compared to the pro counterpart. Slim design makes it much more lightweight.
