    It’s really a great computer for college students. Having a laptop capable of connecting fast and easy is very convenient. Plus having Touch ID to sign in makes it easier to have virtual classes.

    The MacBook Air has a sleek design, and would be a good purchase for anyone interested in a MacBook for school, or for minimal usages. It charges very fast, but seems to die quite fast as well. However, I do believe it’s worth the price. If you need to use any programs or applications for something such as editing, I would suggest getting the MacBook Pro.

    You are no longer in control of your computer

    First, the good part: The same high quality I expect from Apple MacBooks. The software (OD Catalina) is even better than its predecessor, especially the breaking of iTunes into dedicated programs (Music, TV). I especially love that when you connect the iPhone, it shows up in the Finder. This was long overdue but, on the plus side, it works like a charm. For that, it deserves 5 stars. The bad: Apple now controls your computer. You cannot delete pre-installed software, such us Apple News. Worth mentioning that this is possible on the iPhone! I understand that, for security purposes, parts of the core OS cannot be changed even as administrator (sudo/root). I will not get into that. My point is, there is no need to make Apple News part of that.

    The MacBooks I purchased are really nice. My mom and sister love them. Please work on ordering system though. Took me 3 attempts online to order these. Was refunded for purchase twice.

    Can't go wrong with a Mackook. This years' model sports a low-power and super-fast SSD, combined with an i3 Pentium processor. I would highly recommend it for everyday computing needs.

    Great laptop, a lot faster than the one I purchased 2 years ago for my wife. She loves it and is able to do more with this one! Plus, it runs a LOT cooler than the older model as well.

    Open Box MacBook is Awesome!!

    This was a Christmas present for my daughter, and she loves it! We were originally looking at getting a refurbished laptop because Macs are so expensive. A friend suggested looking at Best Buy open box computers and I'm so glad I did. For the price I would have paid for an older refurbished model I got a 2020 MacBook Air that was sealed and looked absolutely brand new. I could not have asked for better. We've had it for almost 3 months now (and my daughter uses it everyday) .and we've had no problem with it whatsoever. I would definitely recommend checking out Best Buy's open box computers to anyone looking for an expensive piece of equipment

    Package came at designated time and it was easy to setup! I couldn't decide on a laptop for starting my YouTube channel but I'm so happy i decided to go with Apple because I can sync all of my information from my iPad on to the laptop smoothly! Would definitely recommend getting this laptop if you've never purchased one before or if you're a student!
