I can’t believe how light is this MacBook. It’s very fast, the battery last for many hours and the quality of the images on the screen is great.

I bought this computer when I returned a chromebook that I had just bought. I didn’t want to spend so much money but you do get what you pay for. Also I thought that the 13.3 screen would be too small but it is not too small. I wish it had some usb regular ports instead of just usb-c but I just got a bluetooth mouse so it is ok. It’s very portable but with lots of power. I have an iphone, ipad and a mac mini so this makes more sense for me to have a macbook. I was able to work it right out of the box, very user friendly and apple support is the best.

Very nice, light weight, sleek & quick loading MacBook Air. I like the choice to dim the keyboard rather than on or off. Crystal Clear Screen, finger print recognition, small but powerful with a decent amount of storage. Keyboard is very easy to use, very comfortable. There are only two ports and both are USB-C. You will have to get an adapter to connect the C port to the standard USB A. I had to do this to connect a wireless mouse and it worked fine. The charger cord is USB C to C with a Charger, so purchase whatever adapter you will need to connect any other devices that are not USB C. Overall, a very Beautiful Laptop.

This is my first air. I’ve had a MacBook Pro for several years and the portability of the air is refreshing. I enjoy both devices, but when I need to quickly prepared a document, surf the web, join a zoom meeting, etc. I usually reach for the air.
This device is NOT a workhorse so if you’re planning to use pro level apps this device is not for you. The Mac air is fine for casual photo or video editing. Also battery life is pretty good.
So far I’ve not been disappointed; however, the other day I was editing a video (casual), in a zoom meeting, had mail and one other app open and the system heated up and the fan was clearly working hard.

Light weight. Attractive and user friendly.
I do wish they would stop changing ports. I have an external hard drive loaded with things I need and can’t connect it to new computer.

Very pleased with the Mac book air. It was a little shock to know there’s not even a USB drive, but there’s an adaptor for the port that is available. Light, and fast!

Badly needed after nursing my MacBook Pro (2012) along for over a year in safe mode. This was such a treat and performs beautifully! Just for fun, I got the gold version and it's lovely! The only regret I have is that I miss the CD/DVD drive my Pro had as I used it a lot. I bought the USB adapter as well and it works great for the couple things I use it for. As always, Best Buy made it easy for me to purchase online with several perks available to me as well. Very happy with my purchase!

Fantastic product! I am studying a masters degree online, while some classes are prerecorded, many are not, meaning that I need to live stream for hours on end while taking notes and using group chats at the same time. Under these circumstances, with the display at medium brightness and the keyboard lights on, I get a least 4.5 hours of continuous use out of one charge. Powerful computer, I never have any issues with having 20 or more pages open at the same time. Highly recommend the i5 over the i3, and the 512gb hard drive is probably the best option for most students.

This laptop is great. The speed is fast. the display is great. I was afraid because said the fan noise was bad and loud, but I guess since I only use my laptop for movies, watching youtube videos, and school work it's not overheating, thus not turning on the fans. I love the fingerprint log in. The force touch pad is probably my favorite feature. This was my first macbook product but it was pretty simplistic. I haven't fully used this laptop to all of its advantages, and still it was worth the price I paid.

This MacBook Air is absolutely perfect for me. It is simple and easy to use. The speed is remarkable. I was so tired of Microsoft products and the continuous difficulties that I kept encountering. The Apple MacBook Air solved all of my problems. I am very pleased with my purchase. If you have an iPhone, it syncs with it automatically. No more frustration and struggles with this Apple product. I highly recommend it even though the price is steep. It will last longer and be worth it in the long run.

I purchased this MacBook Air at Best Buy Pinole at a discounted price which was lower than the Apple store. It came with free Air Pods and I also received a discount for the Apple Care package.
The Intel Core i5 and 512GB SSD makes this machine lightning fast and I can get to work immediately once I open my laptop.
The laptop is also very portable at 13.3" and is very lightweight. The gold color is stunning and bold. I am very happy with my MacBook Air and will definitely buy another one in the near future.

Gifted half of this gift to my 16 yr old Grandaughter for her birthday. She has learned so much in using her MacBook. It's thin, light weight shell is so easy to carry around, which she consistently does! She is so happy with this product and it gives me great pride to state that she is excelling in high school due to her amazing grades. Best Buy made it possible by stocking amazing Apple products. She is now the owner of one. She is not done yet!! We will shopping soon!
