Apple MacBook Air vs. Windows PC

I'm a big Apple fan/user. I bought my MacBook Air 2018 version, in December 2018, and I am very happy with it. It is definitely different from a Windows based PC. As for the battery and its longevity, my battery lasts a couple of days after a full charge. I use mine daily, sometimes 3 hours straight for school, and it's great. My Windows PC battery lasted a long time too, but it depends how often you use your computer. So results may vary. My favorite thing I love about my MacBook Air is that I can answer calls, FaceTime and text just like I do on my iPhone. It syncs, so there are no duplicates. If I take a picture with my iPhone, I can AirDrop it directly to my Mac. I don't have to email the photo and download it, like I had to do with my Windows PC. My Apple Watch can unlock my Mac, so I don't have to type in my password all the time. For those who are a little intimidated with computers, especially if you're switching from one platform to another, I recommend attending the Apple store "How-To's" to learn more about your Mac. Since I have owned and used both a Windows based PC and now a Mac, I'm definitely loving the Mac.

I have yet to experience anything bad with this laptop. It is fast and efficient. I have been able to keep open about 10 tabs without it lagging. What I disliked is that it does not have usb ports, therefore, you are left with buying an adapter in case you want to charge your phone while using it etc. Overall experience is good so far. I am also really pleased with the touch id option.

I purchased the Apple MacBook Air for my daughter that is now a sophomore in college. For most of her classes, she is expected to bring a laptop to class. After trying a few laptop, that kept running out of memory and/or storage space, I decide to invest in a MacBook for her. As this is what most college student have or a MacBook Pro. She loves it! It is easy to navigate through all of its features.

I have a 2012 MacBook Air and decided I wanted new one. It is so much faster and lighter. I started with Apple in 1979-1980 and they only get better. The finger print scan is great

The MacBook Air is sleek and lightweight. I especially love the Rose Gold color of my device. This Mac has met my expectations and more. I like how I can choose whether or not to save my passwords and how easy it is to maneuver.
Better yet, my experience inside the store was fantastic. The salesperson was very knowledge, not pushy, well-spoken and helpful.
Thanks Best Buy!
