    I purchased this laptop for my girlfriend who was needing a new one due to her Dell laptop running very slow and possibly out of date. Anyhow, she had harassed me about it specifically being a MacBook because of all the reviews she had researched. Come to find out, it has exceeded her expectations. She currently is in college and does small jobs with creating t-shirts, crafts, etc. The MacBook Air allows her to complete all her tasks in a much more efficient manner. It has worked very fast, as far as opening and closing windows, apps, and so on. It is amazing how much time has been saved from her old laptop to the MacBook Air. She is beyond happy with it. Oh, and she loves the sleekness of it and the color!

    The lower storage of this product can be fixed easily with an external hard drive - if you're using this for everyday routine computer activities like browsing, email, online banking, social media, and Microsoft Office/Adobe Acrobat/work from home software then 128GB is plenty of room (and you'd still have some left over to download some iTunes TV shows & movies for your next flight without WiFi or to store all your photos in your iCloud). Not only is this laptop beautiful, lightweight, elegant, and an Apple product, the sale price was reasonable, the setup was very simple, (I was able to use my laptop within 10 mins of opening). It is super user friendly. The rose gold color is superb.

    I had an old old old mac book for years now and it was time for an upgrade. This is light small and reasonably priced. My friend ended up getting the same exact one as me after seeing mine.

    I purchased this over BlackFriday and I thinkbit had it's real correct price over that period otherwise it is slightly over priced even considering apple! Most of usual reviews talk about how laptops work for video, phot editing and all that nonsense. I use this laptop for coding and research work and get enough horsepower to process large datasets in Matlab and python with great performance. I like the color options , the light weight and long battery life! I had reservations about the keyboard but frankly I do not have issues with it. Of course the keyboard is not comparable to likes of Lenovo but it is not as bad as it is advertised! Give it a try and you might like it!

    I absolutely loveee this MacBook! It works seamless with my iPhone and it’s incredibly fast. It didn’t take long to learn how to work this either which I’m happy about. The only down side is that u have to purchase adapters to use usb, hdmi etc. I wish they didn’t remove those, causing me to have to spend more to use my other things with this.. also I learned that MacBooks are only output when ur wanting to use an hdmi Cord. I was hoping I could connect my camera to it to get a live view without any software but that’s only for devices that have an hdmi input. Other than that, this MacBook is beautiful, slim and sleek and super fast. Worth every dime.

    This is my first ever mac. I've had lots of pc's in the past and I can't believe how fast, smooth, comfortable the new macbook air is. It is very portable, easy to pack/carry and lightweight. It boots up in seconds, compared to the several minutes it takes my pc to boot. The retina screen is super crisp - great for photo editing and viewing. The keys are perfectly placed and weighted. It may sound weird to say, but I actually make fewer typing errors on this keyboard. Trackpad is large and intuitive. Performance is fast and smooth. This is easily the best computer purchase of my life and I got it on sale!

    I just got my Mac Air today and I love it. I originally ordered the Macbook and when I realized today that the Air was out, I returned it and the difference is there. This is my first Mac I’m an Hp girl, but decided to switch it up as I prepare for Grad School, and I’m loving it so far!!

    Slim has a new name, MacBook Air is really lite in weight and slim in size. It’s fast like the salesperson told me. It could hold it’s own even against the heavyweights.

    Ultralight, ultra-fast, portable, great form factor, usual Apple high quality. Purchased on sale for $200 off. The best computing bang-for-your buck out there in my opinion.

    Our experience at Best Buy looking for a computer was very positive. The manager of the department worked with us on an open box special on the MacBook Air. She took time with us and answered all of our questions. The computer was for someone who was not technical nor computer savvy. This computer has Touch ID and is easy to start and maneuver. The screen is bright, beautifully colored, and easy to read. It tics all the boxes we needed for ease of use. It was a Christmas present and since it was opened for Xmas, it has been used continuously. It is easy to understand and set up. We are very pleased.
