    This is the laptop for which I have been searching for nearly 10 years. Waiting and waiting for the market to turn to my needs, and now this is better than for what I had hoped. Love the touch screen, 2 in 1, SSD, memory, and the gold color with matching keyboard is great

    I have used PC's from the beginning and am switching everything to Apple products. I use the iPhone and iPad for my business already so swapping my PC laptop for a MacBook makes sense. Now all of my devices communicate making my communication with my customers much easier.

    Comes with enough memory for my purposes. The best part for me is the free video editing software. If you’re used to using a Windows PC it is a little different but it won’t take much time to get used to it. Good computer for anyone.

    I wasn't sure what kind of laptop I was going to be getting when I went into Best Buy. I was leaning towards a Windows-based laptop because I use Excel and window quite a bit as well as Outlook. After talking to one of the clerks we reviewed what would be the best one. Because I have an iPad and an iPhone he convinced me that a Mac air book would be the best for my needs. I asked about Outlook Excel and Word and he said that everything was now compatible with Mac. I'm very happy with my purchase and it was perfect for my needs.

    This is my first Mac and I absolutely love it. It was a learning curve making the switch from windows but totally worth it, I am also not very tech savvy either and I was able to figure it out. This is the best computer I have ever owned, you can do so much with it.

    Very very good! It is a truly an investments. Good for school and work. If you will compare to other brands you will see that other brands go up and down in quality. Apple stay the same high quality product all the time. Lots of free updates and highly protected from bugs.

    I am an adult student and needed to upgrade my laptop, so I chose this one as the best option for the price. I've been very happy with my purchase. I have purchased 2 other laptops from Best Buy among other things and have always been pleased with products and services.

    Purchased the latest MacBook Air to replace a 6 year old Dell. A QUALITY build with aluminum housing instead of plastic which most laptops are made of. And going to an OS that works without the constant Windows updates, crashes, viruses....so glad to see Windows go away!

    I've been a PC user all my life but my art classes were all done on a Mac so I took that giant leap and got one. So far it has met every one of my expectations and is exactly what I needed for my classes.

    This laptop is great for taking to school with me or sitting at home with. I can do everything I need on it and more. I've not had any problems downloading anything and it's in great condition. It gets fingerprints on the lid easily, but they wipe off nicely.

    My card didn't go through their billing even though it was valid. There was no direct relationship between the portal and the store. The store said they didn't have any visibility over online purchases. Overall, the product was good but not the buying experience.

    It does what is advertised but with the memory and ram it's a little expensive for what you get. My daughter loves it dad not so much.

    Initially I was looking for some type of HP laptop but after looking at Apple products I was convinced. I like the fact that they are easy to use and I already own an iPad and iPhone. Being able to access the same information on all three is a feature I really like.

    I’m a freshman in college & spent some time reading reviews & doing research before I purchased my macbook. I’ve had it for a month now and I love it. My macbook air suits all my needs as a psychology major. I purchased my pink case & keyboard cover from amazon.

    I have many Apple products, and they're all great. The MacBook Air is my first experience with a Mac (I've used PCs for almost 30 years), and I've found it a bit of a challenge to make the procedural changes, but the computer exceeds all of my expectations..
