I bought my last computer (MacBook Pro laptop) in 2010. The battery had lasted 10yrs!! But, it was time to replace it. An agent was assigned to me right away. He asked me what I needed and REALLY listened to my many questions. I asked about Apple products and the others, too. I bought a MacBook Pro, but when I got it home, I realized I didn't need that much computer power. I brought it back the next week and switched to the MacBook Air. This time, I had my old laptop and had the Geek Squad port everything onto my new Air. Even though The old comp wouldn't boot up even though I had put it on charge all night, but they were still able to do the task. I am loving the air and am amazed how how seamless Best Buy made this switch for me!

This was a gift for my wife and she loves everything about it. It's extremely lightweight, has amazingly beautiful colors and, being her first MacBook Air, has been much easier to use than expected.

Brought this for my wife for her birthday. She loves it, laptop is fast, holds a good charge, sounds a lot better then her 2012 MacBook and very light. I'm jealous now and may buy one for myself.

I have always loved apple products and think this MacBook is the smoothest laptop I've ever owned! Easy to use tools and a great screen, awesome battery, and the weight! A must-have for school and work.

I love my new MacBook Air because it's a lot faster than my old MacBook Air. Plus, it has Touch ID for logging on even faster! The gold color is also really pretty - my office colleagues are jealous.

I've lost count of how many Apple laptops I've owned, but this one is great. I'm delighted with everything except the webcam (even older iPhones have a better webcam), which is unfortunate now that I'm spending hours in video conferences. Oh well. 4.5 stars (it only allowed me 4 or 5!).

I love this computer. Boots up quickly like a Chromebook. Has a touch button that remembers you so no need to memorize your passwords. Lightweight. This size is perfect for home or office.

I bought this the day before going on a trip out of town. I needed a Mac that would allow me to easily continue a project, conduct a job search and communicate back home. The keyboard feel is perfect, since they went back with the older keyboard. The size and spacing of the keys is very good. The screen is clear. The overall size of the unit still made it easy to carry in my bag and work with on the plane, or whoever I needed to be. The only draw back is that this model has just two USB-c ports, instead of 4. If it were possible to have one on each side, it would be better. But, that is a smaller price to pay for the ease of use. This system has replaced an older MacBookPro,

Got this to replace my 10 year old MacBook. I didn’t consider any other brand but a Mac when looking for a replacement. Always reliable, fast, and easy to use as soon as you open.

I will be starting high school virtually and I needed an upgrade from my 2015 i7 non-retina MacBook Air. This computer runs smoothly and has enough storage for iPhone back-ups, iCloud photos, documents and windows bootcamp. The display is really sharp and colorful and the new scissorswitch keyboard is really nice to type on. One thing I dislike is the camera quality. It could be better but it has a nice frame rate. Also 2 things to remember, the fan for this computer is disconnected from the heatsink meaning that the computer heats up quickly. Also don't forget to purchase a usb c hub to get more connectivity out of the MacBook. Overall this is a great MacBook and apple really did their thing.

This was purchased to replace a Windows based laptop for the wife. It is a very nice laptop. She likes using it very much over her old laptop. It is easy to use, fast, and a quality product.

I absolutely love my MacBook Air. I use it almost daily for school and I love that it is so light so I can carry it around in my back pack with my books. Also the color is absolutely gorgeous!

First, I am not tech savvy when it comes to computers. My old MacBook Pro was 8 years old and just felt slow. I knew I wanted another Apple product, but didn't need all the bells and whistles of the Pro models. So far, the Air is perfect for my needs. It's extremely fast! It multitasks beautifully. My son uses it for an online class in video production (Got the Final Cut Pro X software as well)...and it's amazing to see what he can do with it. Yes, it's not cheap, but very reasonable for the quality and it's what I expect from Apple. A great buy!!

One of the best purchases I have made in awhile. My 2012 MacBook Pro was not cutting it anymore for school, and I am impressed by the speed and performance of this new computer. The associates who helped me were wonderful and provided a lot of useful information. I am glad I chose to go with the intel core i5 processor because it holds up for a strong performance when I am working on school work or simply just browsing the web. This computer sustains some light gaming as well, which I was taken aback by. The color is also beautiful and any slight smudges I get on this computer (I have a case on it) are easily removed by rubbing with a microfiber cloth.

Love it. This Air replaced an aging MacBook Pro. It is light to carry, smooth to operate, and as fast as I could care for. Much faster than the old one. Very happy with this purchase.

Apple products have yet to disappoint me and my family. With COVID, I needed a way for the kids to do school online. I initially started with iMacs, but quickly realized that the kids needed to be mobile, so I traded in their iMacs for MacBook Air laptops. While the screen is smaller, the kids enjoy the mobility much more and also like the lightweight nature of the Macs. Be sure you check the specs as I have found anything lower than an i5 Intel chip can be a bit slow--especially for classes like programming, 3D rendering, etc.
This MacBook Air was an excellent purchase and addition to my already deeply rooted Apple device family.
