    We needed a second laptop on the road, so portability mobility and battery life were the most important decision making factors. After three weeks of using and testing I think it's safe to say I've found the perfect match. This laptop is superb and simply great for the everyday man. Highly recommended product!

    whats there to say. I love the 12 hour battery life and the 1.6g processor is more than fast enough. I love the Macbook air its too bad they are not going to continue with that line. As far as the screen goes, I watch movies on it from time to time and I don't miss the retna screen. I also have a MacBook Pro that just sits there not being used. A++ Apple keep the MacBook Air going !!!!

    After researching many websites and reviews, I decided to go with this MacBook Air. It was a great deal at $799.99. I recently started graduate school and needed a light-weight, reliable and affordable laptop for everyday use. This was more than I wanted to spend, but now that I've used it for a couple days, and traveled between home, work and school with it, it was definitely worth the price.

    Although I am a big fan of MacBook pro and MacBook the functionality of the MacBook air still holds the title for me for being the best travel computer. Having the ability for USB and extra storage of needed plus its slim design has won me over since its first inception years ago. And now that I have incredible battery life I will never go back to any apple laptop again. Its perfect for what I do

    After a horrible experience with attempting to buy a second HP laptop, I went into Best Buy searching for another solution. As a college student, I honestly wasn't in the market to buy a MacBook because of the price point. After talking for awhile with a Best Buy associate, he gave me all the benefits and advantages as to why I should invest in a MacBook even though they are pricier than your average laptop. They had a sale going on at the time and I received a college student discount on top of it. So far, I love it! It's very simple and user friendly and now I understand why so many people enjoy their MacBooks!

    This computer is great for college students. I love how the internet connection is so quick to connect. Even if I completely shut down my computer turning it back on the next day is real quick. I love how I only have to charge my computer after a full day of use or every other day with couple hours use. I love how it only takes 2 hours at most to fully charge. Very accessible and good size.

    I thought this laptop on Black Friday as an early Christmas gift for myself… And I have not regretted it one tiny bit! This thing is awesome, it's super fast, the speakers on it or really loud and they are even surroundsound! The screen resolution goes all the way up to 4K, so I can do all the streaming I want, and believe it or not… The battery last me around 2-2 1/2 days on a full charge!

    I love this computer because it's so light and doesn't add unnecessary weight to my backpack. I'm currently a college student so my back is constantly filled with books and this computer is perfect to carry to class. Easy to use and navigate and I can use Microsoft word and make movies on it with no complications.

    Of course computers only last so long and in my experience deteriorate quickly, but I'm a month in or so and I love it. I've only ever had PCs so this was a big change for me. It's easy to use, a lot of the same functions as PCs, and is super quick. I can't show my family - I'd get teased endlessly because they're all windows people - but I love it haha. I have no complaints so far.
