    I have been almost Apple everything and was debating getting a personal laptop or MacBook. In the end, I went with the latter and it had been great. I can do my work, stream shows or movies and the battery life is great. It’s light and easy to carry. Reviewers may critique the Air, but I will say that for most people this is more than enough to get the job done.

    I love the size and color (Midnight) even though it shows a lot of fingerprints. It works well and was easy to set up. The only thing I don't like about it and didn't know until I had already bought it is that it has no USB ports. I can't use my external hard-drive or any of my flash-drives and I can't connect my phone to it. I would have chosen something different if I had known this.

    I’ve been using the MacBook Air M2 for about two years now, and it’s held up incredibly well. Performance is still fast and smooth for everyday work, streaming, and light editing. The battery life hasn’t dropped much—I can still get a full day on a single charge. The Midnight finish looks great, though it does show fingerprints. Even with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, it’s handled everything I’ve needed without issues. After two years, it still feels reliable, lightweight, and worth every dollar.

    Great intro to MacBook

    I love it! The battery life is great. Seriously, I charge it once every 3-4 days and I do at least 4-6 hours of school / work stuff a day. My HP laptop has to be charged after 2-3 hours being off the charger so that’s a huge improvement. This is my first MacBook and it’s so nice to have it the ecosystem it provides. Anything I have on my phone or iPad I can access from the MacBook without having to save them to the cloud and then log in online. It’s been a real game changer. I use my phone and iPad for work a lot so being able to pick up where I left off on the computer is awesome and saves time. Because I do have an HP laptop I went with the smaller 8gb 256 SSD and it’s worked fine for what I have used it for. As a new MacBook owner I couldn’t justify paying a fortune for a computer I wasn’t sure I’d love to get a bigger or “better” one. However, if I continue to love this I will definitely consider a better one when I am ready to upgrade in a few years.

    I deliberated between opting for the Air or a Pro, and once I settled on the Air, another question arose: "13-inch screen or 15-inch?" Comparing screen sizes to my old MacBook Pro Mid 2012, I realized that despite my current Pro having the same dimensions as the 13-inch, the Air's screen size was still bigger. It's a bit disappointing that I won't be able to expand the 8GB memory, but I'm hopeful that future OS updates won't significantly slow down the system over time. Additionally, it's frustrating to only have USB-C ports, rendering none of the connective devices I used with my old laptop compatible anymore. In the end, I'm content with my decision. I primarily use it for work, where I'm constantly switching between Excel spreadsheets and loading multiple browser pages.

    The MacBook Air is great for the whole family. It is easy to use and great for college, high school, gaming, and personal email and web surfing. Apps download with ease and VPN/security was easy to install and access. This is our second MacBook Air. We had the last one 8 years before a child spilled water on the keyboard ending it's service.

    I recently purchased the M2 MBA after using the Surface Pro 9. The MBA M2 is to be used as my primary work device. Most of my work is completed using the browser, so my needs are very minimal. I use 18 Chrome tabs to get my work done. The keyboard on the MBA M2 is the best I have ever used on a portable device, and that is including the Apple Magic Keyboards. In my use, the device has not been a slouch by any means. I like the aesthetic of the MBA M2 and the color reproduction of the screen. My reluctance in purchasing the device was two-fold, one being the notch. Ever since the notch was introduced on Apple products I have never been a fan, but there are systems in place in the MacOS software that do a great job at hiding the notch without much sacrifice. The second reluctance was due to reviewing videos. Reviewers of the product have shared heat issues, poor battery life, and long-term performance issues. I know that I primarily use the device as a Chromebook but I have not come across any of the before-mentioned issues. Yes, I primarily use the MBA M2 as a Chromebook. In order to get a premium Chromebook you have to spend between $700 - $1000. The MBA M2 is currently on promotion through total tech. I have to admit that being a total tech member, the savings I have already received from it have already paid for the membership. Also by being a member, I do not have to worry about adding Apple Care to the device as it's already included. I absolutely love the design of the MBA M2, you will not find a more beautiful laptop. As the design is awesome so is using it, the App experience in my opinion cannot be replicated on a PC.

    M2 MacBook Air is a beast. Apple’s most entry level laptop is probably the most bang for your buck machine out there. Probably better built than most laptops at twice this price point. Fantastic speed, incredible battery life.
