Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you are looking for a Macbook on a budget, these machines are a steal. They are light and capable devices. While it does not have the retina screen, the price and specs make up the difference. If you are deciding between this and the 12", then save the $$ and the the Air with a nice external screen.

Has everything I need and then some! I should have bought this awesome laptop before wasting my money on other brands. It's light, fast, works for hours before requiring a charge, easy to set up and use, lit keyboard, touch pad like a smart phone's, and best of all, synced with my iPhone! Highly recommend.

This is my first Mac so its a bit of a learning experience but so far I love it. The weight is so light and easy to work with, also its got amazing battery life. Its super fast and remarkably intuitive. I have had to look up a few things on how to use it but overall its been an easy transition.

After a lot of research, I decided to join the "MacBook" world because of how well it ties in with other Mac devices such as iPhone or iPad. I also appreciate the speed and the durability, as I find my Mac friends are happier with their computers for a much longer time than I've been with various PCs. This MacBook Air has been perfect! it's incredibly lightweight, thanks to the MAC design and the SSD instead of a hard drive. It is significantly faster than my former Sony Vaio, and after a month of use it still feels extremely fast. The 256 GB is an adequate amount of storage, as I think it would be hard to go with the 128 GB that some other models offer unless you just save everything to the cloud. This model is perfect for web browsing, creating documents and PowerPoint presentations, and eMail. I don't need the more powerful MacBook Pro but you may want to look at that if doing a lot of video editing. The package arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Highly recommend.

Good size and very light. Good size hard drive and quick processor. I highly recommend this Mac!

Lightweight and Fast. Keyboard feels great, and Size of the screen is just right. Would highly recommend.

I was so tired of buying labtops every few years and so after doing research I determined that apple was most reliable and long lasting. I couldnt happier with this purchase. This computer is so easy to use , fast, and battery is awesome. Has so many features that i am still learning. Recommended to students and for all other computer needs.

This 13" MacBook Air laptop is literally the best laptop Apple ever made. Perfect balance between size and performance. I had an 11"/i7/8GB and it is still in service and charging like new 3 years later, with specs that actually beat the first MacBook generation they switched to the m processors. When I saw this closeout price on the 13"/i5/8GB, I could not pass it up for my schoolteacher friend and she loves it!!!! I Also just bought a 12" MacBook i7/16GB Retina to replace the 11" that I gave to my daughter and am already missing the solid build feel of the prior generation, as well as the magsafe connector and ample USB ports. It is also a great machine, but the MacBook Air 11" and 13" (even with their reduced resolution and matte display) just felt amazing and productive, with just the "right" screen resolution at 1440x900 on the 13"..

I liked the weight,design and performance of Macbook Air. Bestbuy gave me the best deal i could get. Pretty much satisfied with the price and the product. I prefer to buy this laptop with Student Deal($150OFF) and Thanksgiving Offer($100OFF).

I was a windows user till now (10 yrs) and thought of switching over to mac. I went back and forth a lot between the MacBook Pro and the Air and finally decided on the Air when it went on sale for $999 (Latest model with 256 GB Flash Storage/8 GB Memory). Very happy that i choose it. Lightweight and Fast laptop that boots up extremenly quicly and the battery life is amazing. The sleep mode doesnt drain any of the battery and with half/1 hour use the battery lasted more than 7 days. Usage in that was particularly videos and browsing.

I bought my first one in 2011 and loved it from day 1. I recently gave that MacBook Air to my nephew for school and I purchased this one. Still loving it. Never had any problems with the MacBook Air I highly recommend it.

Light weight and easy to use, good price for laptop

Doesn't have a Retina screen, but it boots fast and runs fast. Nice and light, fits in a backpack without feeling like you're carrying a full-size laptop. Battery life is excellent.

Got a refurbished Geek Squad certified MacBook Air during Black Friday to give for a gift. Everything runs well and looks great with all that's included inside the box. Did a lot of research and decided to go for this since my gf will only be using it for her grad school work, so it's good for browsing, social media, uploading photos/videos, Netflix, and using Google Docs to write essays. I was pressured to get Apple Care though I don't mind. Even though I got this at a pretty good price,I'd want her to use it for a while so Apple Care gives that peace of mind that she's covered, at least for the next 3 years. Maybe I'll get one for myself next time.

I have owned the Mac Power Book and Macbook Pro. They were great laptops. I was originally skeptical about going to a smaller screen and not having the CD drive component. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoy the smaller device. It is much easier to transport as it is lighter as well as smaller. My family purchased an external CD drive for me, which is convenient for anyone in the family to use. I typically use my home laptop for searching the web, email and storing photos. We also have an Apple tv and I am now able to send from the MACBOOK Air to the TV.! I would recommend the MACBOOK Air for anyone who uses their laptop similarly.

Light weight and portable. I can do everything on this computer from web search, photo editing, video editing, microsoft office and more. Power is very responsive and battery is great!

Upgraded from my 2012 MacBook Air because this laptop remains the benchmark by which all other laptops can be measured. Incredibly thin (though not the thinnest) and light (though not the lightest), the MacBook Air is easy to carry with you anywhere you need to be. The aluminum unibody is durable and sturdy, the keys are solid (and feel way better than the new butterfly keys on the Macbook and Macbook Pro), and the display still looks great despite not being a Retina display. The Thunderbolt and USB ports allow for maximum connectivity and don't require you to live the total #donglelife like newer Macs do. Amazing battery life!

Love that it is so light-weight, portable and easy to use, even though my kids say that I am technology-challenged. Works great for everyday use such as checking email, looking up things on the internet, writing letters, working on spreadsheets, etc. Great purchase!

My last MacBook Air lasted 5 yrs still going strong . Gave it to my son and got new one for myself . It's portability performance price esp Best Buy deal is unbeatable .

Bought it for my son. He uses it everyday and hasn't had any problems. He says it's fast and does everything he needs it to do. He does all of his homework and video editing on it. Small enough to carry it back and forth between home and school. Highly recommend.
