    I bought this MacBook, because I needed a laptop that I could carry everywhere, I think it was the best choice because of its size it is super light and portable, easy to carry everywhere. The M2 chip makes the software fast, I use it for work and I haven't had any kind of lag. I recommend this equipment if you need a lightweight laptop that you can take everywhere.

    I originally bought the 15 inch air, But I exchanged it for the 13.6. That price point was a bit much. This one is still thin and light weight, But I do miss the screen size on the 15. Overall, I really love it. It works perfectly for my business and some personal use. It's fast and I have had zero issues. The battery life is unmatched!

    Love it. This is my second MacBook, last one I had for 9 years, and I did have some technical difficulties with it 2-3 times. Finally when it completely died, I upgraded to this one. So far no issues, works fast, battery lasts for a long time, and I got Apple care with it this time. Hoping it will last me 10 years!

    Excellent laptop with good enough performance and beautiful display. It keeps pace with a MacBook Pro for short or light workloads. Only complaint would be the hinge has a slight click after about 10 months. Not a big deal and likely easily serviceable. Extra recommendation for college students as the fact it has no fans keeps it dead silent in classes or meetings.

    The 15" screen includes a retina display which provides beautiful coloration that really shows when watching videos or editing photos. We love how it's versatile design makes it a great choice for students, working from home, and everything in between. The keyboard feels great to type on for extended periods of time.

    This is the best lightweight laptop and maybe even the best general-use laptop ever. It's fast, has a beautiful screen, made to last, and it is SILENT. No air fan blowing noise ever. This is my 2nd MacBook Air. I bought my first one in 2013 and it last for 10 years. I hope this one does too! :)

    MacBook Air is no Pro

    Overall not a bad laptop if you need to use it for basic tasks: browsing internet, creating text documents and PDFs, saving photos and files to iCloud etc. Also the front FaceTime camera is very good - high res and great image quality… so it’s good for hoping on a zoom call. And since it’s light weight and super thin, it’s great to travel with. My issue w the air is that its ability to function really comes to a halt when you try to do a few things at once. For example, if you’re on a zoom call, but you’re also the presenter trying to display a large file, slide ahow or video presentation to the zoom group, you literally better not try to do anything else. Don’t even try to google something, the air cannot handle all that at once. Your video feed will start to suffer, the internet pages will load slowly and your presentation may freeze for your viewers. The threshold of what the air can handle is narrow and once it’s crossed the whole computer is useless. Coming from a MacBook Pro to an Air, I was shocked at how little the Air could handle compared to my much older Pro. If all you do is shop online, google stuff and save files to the cloud, the Air is fine…. But if you want to do anything semi complex on your laptop, the Air is not then right model for you. Go with a Pro, it’s a far superior machine.

    I got this computer for school purposes and so far I can say that it is a good inversion, it really light it doesn’t take a lot of space in my back pack, the battery last for hours and it charges really fast. If you want to get something not too big, good quality and good price I really recommend it.

    Bought this laptop from Best Buy for my wife as she starts nursing school, and it’s been perfect. It’s fast, reliable, and handles everything she needs for classes, assignments, research, and exams without any issues. Setup was easy, battery life is solid, and it’s lightweight enough for her to carry to campus every day. Definitely a great choice for students and worth the money.

    The Macbook air has all the specs I need to work on the go without the heaviness or need to recharge constantly. One of the features that really concinced me, after being a Macbook pro user for more than 10 years, is battery life. Also, portability is very important and this powerful laptop has the best of a lightweight with great performance.
