    One star because I could not select zero. Less than 2 years old with light use and does not start up! It was working fine until I updated to Catalina. After downloading the software it shut down never to run again. Junk!!!

    I bought it last year in August as a gift for my daughter for school. Right out the box battery died when I open it in September 2020. (After paid off) Warranty expired and both Apple and Bestbuy want to $700 for repair.

    Great computer for a low-key user

    I purchased this MBA when it initially released in November and I am very happy with it. Although this is not my first time in the macOS system, this is my first personal Mac computer. I had been eyeing the old MBA for a while, but I kept waiting and hoping Apple would release an updated version with Retina display and finally they did! As someone who's not a stranger to the Apple ecosystem, I knew that the Retina display would be far superior to the old MBA. I made the switch from a 2012-2013 HP Envy m6 15" and I am not looking back! This thing is lightweight, which makes me want to take it to school with me, it's fast (I mean all new computers are but still), and I don't mind the keyboard. I would say I'm a fast typer and I have not noticed any issues using the butterfly keys on this computer. Overall, I really don't do much on it besides homework, browsing the internet, and watching movies/TV. It's not like I'm a graphic designer so the processor power and the storage is more than plenty for me. Plus, most of my files/pictures/documents I keep in the cloud or on a flash drive.

    Great laptop for a student

    I just got this laptop for college and I can attest to the fact that it is phenomenal. Pros: Great battery life - 9+ hours during pretty heavy web browsing Booming stereo speakers Clean, crisp keyboard Lightweight and portable - great for carrying around Exceptional display - the shrunken bezel fits the crystal clear display perfectly Sexy recycled aluminum alloy enclosure Cons: Meh webcam Lack of a USB-A port, requires an adapter (which is not that much of an inconvenience)
