    Perfect size, more power than I will ever need, long lasting battery, runs cool and has a beautiful screen and I love the magsafe charging cable it comes with. Its an Apple product with excellent build quality which you will appreciate every time you pick it up. Whats not to love. Apple has seemingly stubbornly refused to jump on the touch screen, convertable laptop bandwagon. Maybe they will offer these features one day but I am not going to hold my breath. Actually I have owned touch screen Windows laptops with pen and all and to tell the truth it was not something I ended up using that much at all. I figure if you need or want a touch screen, pen and all that then buy a tablet. This is a laptop with a quality lighted keyboard and it does what it was designed to do reliably and wonderfully. Yes the color of this model is a fingerprint magnet for sure. I think we all have a touch of O.C.D. When it comes to this subject. You just have to overcome that a little. Wipe it down good maybe once a week or so and quit worrying about it. You will see it cleans right up good as new and you will feel good about it... again... Five stars all the way.

    I got this laptop for school and now it's my best friend. I think it's a perfect size, and the color is so beautiful. I am obsessed with the fingerprint feature, it's so cool and convenient. The MacBook is fast, it's pretty lightweight, the battery lasts a good while, and I haven't had any issues with storage. Overall 10/10 great laptop!

    After tons of research and comparisons, Best Buy not only has the best price, but the best options, shipping, and customer service experience. This MacBook is so light, every time I pick it up, I’m in shock. Much faster and brighter than my MacBook Pro and the difference is as clear as the screen. Purchase and pick up within minutes from my home with bonus Apple products too! I’m so happy with this laptop and thankful for getting the best deal!

    Let me start by saying that I bought this laptop without planning to because my seven year-old MacBook had unexpectedly died on me and as a graduate student, I freaked out and ran to Best Buy. Best Buy closed at 9 PM that night and I got there at 8:50 PM and decided quickly on this laptop specifically because it’s the perfect size, it’s lightweight, it’s everything that I need as a student who uses a laptop for about 8 to 10 hours a day. With that being said the battery life is incredible. If you travel with it, it’s so compact that you can stick it anywhere. In terms of how it works, I have no complaints and it’s honestly a beautiful Laptop and so easy to work with.

    Had an old air from 2015. That was a good computer but it was getting old and it wasn't getting the most recent updates. Picked this up, it's lighter, faster, better display, etc. Very nice upgrade. Battery life is good, better than my old one.

    I truly love the midnight color. This MacBook isn't heavy and easy to use. Coming from someone who used a Macbook Pro; I have enjoyed using this MacBook for daily work, school, and browsing. Fingerprints are prone to get on it but that doesn't bother me because it is easy to clean.

    The features on this computer are amazing. I love how well I can type on here and I love how I can open MULTIPLE screens and it doesn’t look too overwhelming. This laptop is incredibly light and slim. I take it almost everywhere with me and it’s so convenient for me because i’m so active with work and school. I also work on graphic designing and creating flyers and images with which this MacBook has helped me improve my skills in less than a week as I was able to focus and look at my screen without feeling overwhelmed. I recommend if you really want to invest in a GREAT laptop. I’ve always preferred HP laptops but i’m not going back for sure! Most people discouraged me to buy my MacBook because of school, but luckily for me my school can assist me with anything I need. I also love how this laptop is the same as my iPhone 14, which I just upgraded from an 11 as well as my 9th Gen iPad. Now all of my information can be linked together and stored in separate places. I don’t regret this purchase at all!

    The MacBook is really perfect. Shifting from Windows to this platform was one of the best decisions I have ever made. The laptop switches on and off super fast, and also the response is perfect. Also, my partner has the 15 inch version, compared to that I felt hte 13 inch to be a much better version as its really nice to carry around and work from anywhere and also keep me entertained. PS - The battery life iups really nice. It lets for to 8 hours

    I have to say, it’s the best MacBook for college. It’s lightweight and really fast. I haven’t had any complaints so far. When fully charged it lasts up to more than 6 hours without shutting off. And the picture quality is pretty great. Overall an amazing option.

    As a longtime Macbook user, I made a giant jump from the 2015-era Macbook Pro to the M2 Macbook Air. This took a lot of research as I had a spec’d out Macbook Pro and had previously saw the Macbook Air line as an introduction to Macs and did not make sense to save a couple of dollars for the power you were missing. But now, this is completely different. The M2 Macbook Airs are now workhorses in a very beautifully done, slim, and portable package. I haven’t had an issue of power and I’ve benefited from having an all around better laptop. The battery life is phenomenal, screen and camera quality is amazing, compactness of the laptop while also having the feel of a full size laptop is amazing. You get a great laptop that truly can challenge the Macbook Pro in a great, and more affordable, package. This laptop will definitely work for 99% of the population that is in the market for a laptop today.
