Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is my second mac. First one was a macbook pro 2012 edition and i thought i needed an upgrade. I browsed around for a bit between laptops ranging from DELL TO HP TO LENOVO, I did not want to go back to an apple product again but seeing the deal on this macbook air and the specs and what I was looking for, I decided to purchase another one. For the price you are paying for a late 2018 edition macbook air, it is so light, fast for daily basic use. I am an artist, I use photoshop a lot and clip studio art for illustration and I found that this mac is able to handle those softwares. It is good for daily web browsing, microsoft office, and your basic needs. I would not recommend this mac for vblog since it does not have the proper graphics card and specs to handle photo editing, it can manage but it will be very slow. Another reason for the purchase is, this macbook comes in GOLD!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! GOLD!! Very professional look, you can find bargain cases on amazon to fit your personal style. MIND YOU: That you will needed a thunderbolt converter in order to use any USB items, which can be a pain but it isn't soo bad. Charging for this mac is fast and the average time for me would be about 7hrs of battery life close to 8hrs if I am watching a movie and browsing like a busy bee that I am. For the price and specs, I say this is a must buy. If you are on a budget then . I suggest either save up for this computer or find an alternative, but you can never go wrong with this stylish computer. The keyboard is very responsive, very silent and comfortable to the touch. Anyhow happy shopping and I hope that this review finds you and allows you to make a solid decision. If all else fails just youtube a few laptops out there to get a sensible picture to how the laptop of your choice may perform.

So far so good 3-4 weeks in. Pro's so far: • Quite decent battery life. • 16 GB of RAM lets me run Chrome, virtualbox no problem. • Sharp screen on the laptop itself. I have it also connected to an LG Ultrafine and the picture / refresh is spectacular. • T2/TouchID helpful, especially because I use a password manager that accepts TouchID. Con's so far: • New cables. This is the first USB-C device I have, and I dread the new ecosystem of USB Cables. Sigh - https://xkcd.com/1406/ • This noisy keyboard. I sure hope it lasts, but it is noisy. Like every key stroke hits with a thud. The key travel isn't nearly what it is on the MBAir 2011 that this 2018 MBAir replaces. The magic keyboard also sounds silent. As a strategy, I try and buy the best laptop I can with the money I have. The MBAir 2011, with its solid state drive was a revolutionary machine back then and it still functions well as a backup computer for me. It had 8 years of good life. I was even able to replace via ifixit.com the adhesive battery. I do worry about the 2018 MBAir, if I will be able to get another 8 years of life out of this unit, or if any of its components will be serviceable.

Fast, lighter but same bells and whistles from my mid 2011 MacBook Air. I just wish Apple would rename products more carefully..."gold" is a little confusing. I would have named the colors champagne, rose gold and copper. Great experience in dealing with Best Buy..we have bought all of our Apple MACs from them.

To begin I've had an iPhone for years and absolutely love them, but couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger and purchase a Mac as they're so expensive. Well while they were on sale for Labor Day I finally made the switch. I absolutely love my MacBook Air. Its so light, portable and fast! I'm an engineering student and it fires up any program I'm trying to run. I'm constantly using it for homework, projects, Microsoft, photos, music, ect. If you like your iPhone make the switch ASAP! It seamlessly connects across your apple devices. For example if I'm working on need to grab my phone when I get a phone call or text message. I'm beyond impressed. Lastly it has a terrific battery life and the gold color is beautiful. I've had such a good track record with apple products and this is one more to add to the list! Do go ahead and purchase the adapter for a usb though, comes in handy!

The screen is bright and crisp, even outdoors. The processor is fast and quickly moves between screens and applications easily most of the time.

After buying the laptop, the transition into using it was very smooth. It synced to my other electronic items seamlessly. I have not used all of its bells and whistles just yet but am hopeful that it will be seamless as well The MacBook is light and thin. Easy to handle and travel with.

the price was below $1000 for these specs and the was the best deals I seen for this MacBook Air

Great MacBook. Plenty of RAM. Stays charged for a LONG time.

Great price and the specks are terrific! Couldn't ask for better deal!

I love the new sleek and light weight design of the MacBook Air. This is the perfect laptop to travel with for work or fun and the features and apps are amazing. It's really easy to maneuver even if you are usually a PC lover. I would def purchase this computer again and pairing with my Iphone was simple.

Bought this computer for a college class. Have had only one problem when it came to downloading software, but otherwise it is great. Needs a usb c hub if a person wants to connect Normal usb attachments to it.

This MacBook Air is the best I have used so far. Love the fingerprint feature to open the laptop. Very light and yet robust.

My first Apple laptop ever. I have always had just iPhones and finally gave in to purchase this laptop. I’m very pleased with it so far!

This laptop is the best premium laptop. It is fast and the Retina display screen is beautiful and crisp.

Is amazing is fast good Is amazing is fast good Is amazing is fast good Is amazing is fast good

Have been shopping around and found a good deal on the price. Light and easy to carry around.

We're using this laptop for Photo Editing with Photoshop and for Video Editing with Final cut Pro. It works perfectly for what were using it for. The hard drive read and write speeds are close to 2000MB/s so most tasks are fast but compiling video is slower than on the MacBook Pros but it get the job done.

First Macbook and I LOVE IT!!! I think I will be buying macbook from now on.

Very happy with the size and color. Quality as usual is amazing!

Perfect size for on the go! I love it for school and work
