    Since Apple removed the USB port, you need to spend extra $20 at least to buy USB-C port to connect the USB.

    Still enjoying this MacBook Air from 2019

    I opted for this model at the time because I was able to get it cheaper as it had less storage space and buying an external dive to off load photos and designs has worked out well. Great speed and it’s 2024 and still working like a champ. I like that is so lightweight and have had no issues with the overall performance. I would buy this model again with increased storage for apps.

    This Macbook Air is really good. The only reason I gave it 4 stars out of 5, is because sometimes it feels defected. But Overall a great laptop.

    This is my first Apple computer. So far so good. The only thing I dislike is the camera quality. It’s a bit poor but I don’t use it any way.

    It’s a great product but I wasn’t happy that I needed to purchase an additional cable to charge my phone. Also, camera is blurry at times.

    Well, my wife wanted to get a Mac to be able to do some crafty thing. This thing works just fine, though the account set up process isn't the most intuitive. I had to call to reset the device due to her forgetting her password immediately. Good service but kinda cumbersome. For the money, I could do a lot cooler with a PC. I just don't get the whole apple thing, seems like a marketing thing more than a compandy or device thing.

    This is the Macbook Air We Were Given

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Design of the MacBook Air is great as expected. I think the implementation, the craftsmanship, trackpad, it all looks really good. The processor, despite being the Y series processor works very well. I think it would have been nice for Apple to use the i7 Y processor as the standard configuation, given that this device has seen a price increase. However, the Y series dual cores are plenty powerful. Battery life, Sound, Hardware, Build, all really good. Let me mention where I think Apple could have done much bettter. The butterfly keyboards just aren't pleasant to type on. They keys are shallow, although the new gen butterfly keyboards better than last gen. Just not that good. Some people will like them and some will dislike, the bad part is if you dislike, you have no other options. The display is quite DIM. While the colors are great, the display is quite dim and it isn't nearly as good as the Macbook Pro displays, although it is miles better than the previous gen Macbook Air. Lastly, I don't understand why base configurations still come with 128gb. When will will this end? It quite simply isn't enough storage to not have to worry about managing your storage. 256 should be the bare minimum. Prices of SSD's have come down in recent years. Overall, it is not quite the Macbook Air that we wanted, and I am hopeful that next years Macbook Pro's keep an option with the new keyboard to have a non-touch bar display. As a developer, I want my function keys. This implementation is good, but it isn't a great value. It should have and could have been done a bit better. We were all looking for a $899 Mac Laptop, this was unveiled to us as not being it.
