    Exactly What I Needed for Work on the Go

    I do a lot of travel with my job and need to be able to use Adobe Creative Suite as well as iMovie for minor video editing while on the road. This macbook air doesn't have the same processing power as the iMac in my office, but it gets the job done in a pinch. Add in the thin frame and the light weight, it's easy to take it in my briefcase and go.

    My First Mac

    I purchased this MacBook to replace two windows 7 laptops. I was frustrated with the lack of support on windows platform and the fact that updates on windows just wasn't working. I don't mind looking for drivers and such but the best thing about mac that i've noticed so far is that every just works. The laptop is pretty fast as well, i haven't had any hang ups or anything. Using a WD easystore 1 TB drive as a time machine backup as well(also done a review on) works amazingly well. Cables are proprietary but if the product works i don't mind. And, it comes with an office suite built in. The bonus is i use Android phones as well and the integration with chrome browser is pretty good if you don't use an iPhone. Chrome with Android File transfer for the S5 is awesome. I would definitely recommend.

    Sleek, fast and efficient. Had always used windows products and replaced my old laptop in January 2016 with the same brand. Rolled it out of the box and hard drive was noisy - sounded like washing machine was spinning next to the China cabinet. Took it back and Best Buy replaced it no questions ask. Started the new one up and same issue - knew at that point I was done with moving hard drives. Again took it back and Best Buy let me replace it with this Mac - glad I had the hard drive issue, this lap top is FANTASTIC!!!!!! Apple is so in to producing great products that look great, function perfectly and from what I hear last for years!!!

    I love my new MacBook Air! It's lightweight, fast and looks great! Great for traveling with! A whole computer that you needn't break your back to carry. My iPad is great, but when I'm on a long flight my eyes prefer the larger screen.

    I have been an apple iPhone and iPad user for years however, have never owned a MacBook until now. I don't know why I waited so long! So simple to use! love the entire system. My information flows seamlessly between all my apple devices. I love that I can get text messages from everyone including android users all while on my computer versus having to keep all my devices right next to me. I purchased apple care to go along with this just in case, but according to reviews these computers last forever. Ive had several windows computers that always end up with a virus or eventually start running extremely slow. Apple products are known for their Long lasting sustainability and durability. This is by far, the best computer I've ever owned and the only brand ill ever consider from now on!!!

    I'm really enjoying my new MacBook Air. It's sleek and compact, but also has a great amount of storage and is easy to navigate -- even having always used HPs and Windows. I love that it syncs with my iPhone and Apple Watch as well.

    After tons of research, including reading reviews like this, I finally committed to a MacBook Air. Am I happy and satisfied, oh yes, big time! When my windows lap top finally went belly-up, I decided to spend a little extra cash and get something that was not obsolete the day I walked out of the store with it. One of my major concerns was if I could make the jump between such different devices? I'm doing it! Yes there is a learning curve, it is a whole different system, but I am working my way through it. This MacBook Air is perfect for my needs. It is light weight, fast, and exactly what I have always been looking for in a laptop.

    I've always wanted a mac and I just finally went out and bought one. I love it! I've always had issues with PCs but now I'm issue free. I love it. It also helps that I have an iPhone and iPad so the mac completes my collection. XD

    It's the not the best laptop for the price but it's fast easy to use and works seamlessly with my other devices from Apple. The only issue is the screen. The 720p screen is ok but for the price a 1080p would have been better

    After purchasing my MacBook Air, I've become a loyal Apple fan. The design, the weight and facility of use are amazing. Also, I find that Apple stands by the products it produces! Sometimes, you actually get what you pay for.

    Love. My. New. Mac. I have waited for years to make a purchase. I decided to go with the Air after my Pro was not longer being supported. It is fast and easy to use...and so much slimmer than my previous model! Don't wait!
