Love my new laptop! It is so light, I love the keyboard with the light touch, and the rose gold color is awesome. I've always gone with silver but am happy I changed it up this time.

The MacBook Air is an amazing laptop. It is very fast opening and closing apps. Also the Touch ID is a very nice thing to have. And the keyboard I have no problems so far.

Such an amazing laptop. Super hd love that you can unlock it with your finger just like your iPhone. Super thin I would recommend getting a case for it. Easy to travel with.

I’ve never used a Mac computer, so have been been very hesitant in trying one. However, I love my iPhone and iPad....so, I listened when the associate explained some details on the MacBook & trusted him when he said it was very intuitive to use...especially since I already use Apple products. And, I love it!!!
Set it up in just a couple of minutes & easily had it synced with my Apple ID. Still exploring all the capabilities, but it’s been great so far for my home and kid’s school needs.
Love the color! Easy to use! Keyboard has great feel to it & the track pad is simple to use! Highly recommend.

Absolutely worth the price; only downside being low RAM. (But it’s an AIR model, what can you expect?) it’s very fast, light, and easy to use

been using it for a year and its hand down the best computer ive owned. its no powerhouse but im not doing anything like gaming or video editing. mostly streaming video and let me tell you, i easily get 8-10 hours on a charge with streaming video. there is a fan but its not loud and doesnt spin up often. the low power cpu means it doesnt get hot in your lap. the keyboard is "love it or hate it" but ive gotten used to it. i was worried that a low power dual core cpu would be slow in 2019 but it runs so smoothly and is about as fast as i could ask for.

The 2018 new MacBook Air is awesome. The design is completely different from the old ones. It also has Touch ID, and less outlets which saves more battery

This computer does everything that I had hoped. It is quick, lightweight, compatible with my iPhone and has a really long run time on the battery. However my wrist and palms are taking a beating form the sharp, thin edges that face me as I am typing. I am looking at options for a protective case to provide a softer edge.

Great Upgrade, but No Keyboard Travel

Overall, a great upgrade if you're looking to replace your aging Mac. It's relatively fast with the new 8th Gen processor. Note that you will need adapters (USB-C) for regular use which adds some additional cost, and don't forget about the case, and Applecare.
The downside is that the keyboard does have very little travel. So for those that haven't upgraded a Mac for a while may have trouble with getting used to it like I have. Otherwise it's a great travel laptop to take notes.
So far the battery life is pretty true to spec, and the resolution is fantastic. And while the brightness of the MacBook Pro is much better, I'll remind you of what you're probably buying the Air to do...basic computing and for that. It's great!

Quad core processor is fast, screen looks great, battery life is good (should last all day for students). The laptop charges very quickly with the USB-C.
No complaints with the MacBook itself. I just wish it would come with the 3-prong charger as the 2-prong doesn't fully ground the MacBook.
