    This laptop will do anything with ease, a great option for school work and being productive in general. Have been using it for years and it has not failed made. I’d recommend going for the M1 if you want an upgrade in almost every way.

    I’m in LOVE with my MacBook! I could not get through college without it. It’s so easy to transport. I bought mine 3 years ago and the battery life is the same as it was when I first got it. If you need a sign- this IS your sign!

    Not worth the money! Only had for a month and the right arrow key fell off. Apple will not fix and want to charge $500 for a new keyboard when the key could be fixed. Apple is way overpriced. I will not purchase Apple products again. My cheaper laptop lasted years without any part breaking!

    My laptop was incredibly slow, wouldn't sync my iCloud, was smudged as if it were previously used-though I purchased a brand new laptop. When I ran its first update two weeks in, it stopped working. During my finals week! Thankfully Best Buy accepted the return and I upgraded to a MacBook Pro!!!

    I thought because it was newest model it would be better and faster! Not at all my 2014 model ran faster and the battery life is terrible and the screen brightness sucks and is all splotchy out the box! Wouldn't recommend this item!

    My MacBook completely stopped working. Very frustrating and I’ve tried to trouble shoot it as much as possible. Won’t turn on, won’t charge. Please advise, my “return window” ended already but I just bought it in December 2020. I would like to know what my options are.

    Mouse pad stopped working, went into store and said they couldn’t help and I’d need apple to work on it even though it was still under warranty and still is. NEVER buying a product from you guys again especially getting it shipped. Shame on me and shame on you guys.

    Purchased at Best Buy outlet as old stock. Turns out it was repackaged and confirmed by Apple store as refurbished. Didn’t even get to use as the fans kept on blowing. Got the m1 versions instead.

    This laptop works great....but......Major downside - it dies so fast. The battery life is like maybe 1 hour of me watching presentations for school and it’s almost dead. Super disappointed. Paid a lot of money for this thing, and it was brand new.

    Have a major problem with it freezing. The computer often restarts itself and then gives an error message when it is back on that it restarted because there was a problem. Does not say what the problem was. Using mainly to edit pictures and browse the web.
