So far the MacBook has run flawlessly for me. It took a while to learn and I'm still in the process but the basic stolid comes along easily. 8 love the fact that iCloud Drive lets me sync documents to and from other apple products. I definitely recommend if you want a good software ecosystem

The computer is great. Good speed, and screen size. The only improvement I could suggest is having the numbers to the side as well such as on desktops.

Still best MacBook for the money

Sure, it doesn't have Retina display or the touch bar, but if you want an apple MacBook for email, internet, basic spreadsheet and word processing tasks, then this is still the best one to buy. It has normal USB ports (USB-A not USB-C) and the latest model has 8 GM ram as standard.

This is for my high school daughter. She has been wanting one of these. She loves it. Does all of her homework on it. Her school has ipads for the kids to work on at school, so this helps at home. It came with pre installed programs that she needed so we did not need to buy anyrhing else.

If you need a basic and good laptop, this is the one. Great MacBook for basic use.
But if you work with a lot of documents and spreadsheets open simultaneously, not to mention multiple browser windows and tabs, it might be a little slow. It's a matter of how much this will bother you and worth the cost of buying one with higher specs.
in any case, another factor to consider in the equation is the weight. This is considerably lighter than the MacBookPro...

MacBook Air Doesn't Disappoint

This is our first Mac. I was wanting to send my daughter away to college with a PC, but she convinced me otherwise. It does it all for her and syncs up with her Iphone and Ipad. So, a little more than a PC, but made her happy.

My refurbished macbook air came in excellent condition! I've been a microsoft user my whole life so it was an interesting switch, but I got used to it very quickly. I have had no issues and there wasn't a single scratch on it when I received it. I am very content with my purchase.

One of the best Apple products that I've ever purchased. Love the aluminum build and the keys!! Got this laptop under the student discount and warranty for under 1k for my first year of college. Would highly recommend that if you could afford this product that you purchase it.

Really not much more can be said about this great laptop that's already been said. You can tell it's a very big step up from windows and is really fun using with all the different things to use. How about having your own dictation being taken by a computer instead of a live person?

Love the MacBook Air so far. I only dislike how easily the screen falls backward, wondering if I have a defective unit or if they are all this way.

When I was shopping for a laptop I wanted the best. I wanted to get the MacBook Pro, but it was a little to pricey for me. I bought the MacBook Air instead and I am very happy with it. It has the same things as the Pro, just cheaper. Picture quality is great and memory is awesome too!!!

My wife and I were undecided on what to buy for a new laptop. Our previous MacBook was great so we knew we wanted an Apple, but didn't know which model. The associate was extremely helpful with pointing us in the right direction based on our budget and what we use the laptop for daily.

I really loved this laptop. The only unfortunate thing was I was expecting the air to be super light. It is thin, but the 13" is almost 4lbs so I opted for the 12in macbook instead.

The sales associates were helpful and gave me accurate information when I was looking at the MacBook Air. They helped me work through some transfer issues and went the extra mile as needed. The sale price listed on my first visit was honored when I returned three days later. Thank you!

Bought this for my daughter. She loves it. Got a fantastic price on it at Best Buy because she's a student and I got a BB credit card. For me, I'd go to 256GB storage as 128GB is a bit lean. But it works great for her. I'm told you don't want to add storage. Get what you need up front.

This is my second purchase of a MacBook Air. I bought a second one just to have to do my internet surfing and such. My other is strictly for school and business. I love Apple products. The longevity of their products is excellent and will purchase many other Apple products.

I purchased this laptop for my fifth grade daughter to do her homework (mainly for online research and essay typing). The installation/set up is so easy that my daughter can do it independently with minimal help from me. She's been using it for almost 2 month and no issue at all!

Bought my twins the MacBook Air for their birthday. I was worried that the new computers wouldn't be able to use their old printer but thankfully they connected and worked beautifully. Their college uses Apple products so it made accessing the bulletin boards and classwork a breeze.
