Purchasing my new laptop from Best Buy has been one of the best tech investments I’ve ever made. From the moment I powered it on, I could tell this was built for excellence. The processor handles demanding tasks effortlessly whether I’m editing videos, running multiple applications, or streaming in high resolution, everything is seamless. The display is stunning, with razor-sharp detail and vibrant colors that make both work and entertainment feel immersive. Battery life is exceptional, lasting an entire day without reaching for the charger. Best Buy’s delivery was prompt, the packaging was secure, and customer service followed through to ensure my satisfaction. This laptop isn’t just a device; it’s a productivity powerhouse and a daily inspiration to create, work, and achieve more.

Best Computer I Have Ever Used?!

I purchased an open box model of this and I have to say, so far this thing really exceeds expectations big time! It is a joy to use in every way. Using this just feels so fast and snappy. Everything I have thrown at it so far, it has handled with ease. The typing experience on here is really just on another level compared to other laptops I have tried out.
Originally- I purchased one of the new Snapdragon laptops. A Lenovo slim 7x as they had it on "sale" for cyber Monday. They were what everyone was talking about, the new AI computers and it had rather impressive specs all things considered. It had a similar profile and build compared to the Macbook Air as well. I am fortunate I was given an extended return window and I got to really try it out and ultimately I decided it just was not worth keeping.
Everything that computer did well, this Macbook does better. It is well built, comfortable, efficient, and powerful! Plus I get to stay in the Apple ecosystem as well, which is wonderful! I can mirror my phone on here, my airpods connect seamlessly and swap between all my devices depending on what I am doing.
Overall, I think this is a fantastic machine and I am satisfied with my purchase! I think for most people, the M2 version is going to be more than capable for nearly anything you will need out of a computer. That has been the case for me personally anyway. I was really torn between this computer or a Macbook Pro but at the end of the day I really did not need the extra performance or anything to justify spending that extra money. Plus I really like the Air better anyway and think the form factor is much more comfortable and convenient. If you are looking for a powerful, compact, and comfortable experience look no further! Do not waste your money getting the newer M3 model either as it offers minimal incentive aside from slight improvement to the GPU performance. This will handle anything most people will want to do with ease! Plus the battery life is absolutely fantastic! These new AI PCs claim to have similar or better battery life/performance but most of that has proven untrue. As far as the performance goes especially. They are really sneaky with their claims. None are as consistent nor anywhere as reliable as a Mac! Plain and simple!
Happy Shopping!

I’ve been using this laptop daily and it has exceeded my expectations. The performance is lightning fast, the screen is crisp and bright, and the battery life easily lasts me through a full workday. It’s lightweight, which makes it perfect for travel and commuting, yet powerful enough to handle all my work and school tasks without slowing down. The design is modern and sleek, and it runs silently compared to older laptops I’ve owned. Overall, this has been one of my best tech purchases—highly recommend!

To preface I am an Apple fan. Due to that information take my product review however you will.
I've been using this MacBook for the last few weeks and have enjoyed every minute of it. It is simple straightforward the keys and the typing experience is excellent it is fast enough for what I am utilizing it for which is wordprocessing Excel surfing the Internet etc. I have not tried using it with my 3-D printer yet but foresee no issues. The finish is lovely there aren't obnoxious stickers all over it I purchased an inexpensive case on Amazon to protect the surface but it has been in my briefcase for the last three weeks unprotected and they're still are no scratches or scuffs. The screen is fantastic I have watched shows listen to music the sound quality and video quality is great. I have a 13 inch iPad as well with the M2 chip and while they function very similarly the laptop does seem to be slightly quicker. I would absolutely recommend this 4 a teenagers first computer a moderate user not a power user. Portability wise it is light it is convenient I am a large man and never noticed the additional weight in my briefcase. I would absolutely buy this again. I have had two MacBook Pros that I never fully utilized the capability of and the expense of those machines what's not worth it for what I needed it for so this option is perfect for me.

The MacBook Air has been great for me—super light, really fast, and the battery lasts all day. I love how slim and compact it is; it fits easily in my bag and doesn’t feel bulky at all. I use it for school, work, and some light editing, and it handles everything smoothly. Definitely worth it if you need something reliable and portable.

I’ve had my 13-inch MacBook Air with the M2 chip for a little while now, and honestly, I’ve never felt more supported by a piece of tech. I use it for everything — school, creative projects, editing, writing, planning, overthinking (lol) — and it’s always up for it.
Performance – Fast, Smooth, Quiet.
The M2 chip is no joke. I can bounce between Google Docs, Zoom, Canva, Spotify, and 12+ tabs with no lag. It's fast in a way that makes me feel more productive. Everything just flows. And the fact that it stays completely silent even when I’m doing a million things at once? Love that.
Design – Slim, lightweight, and honestly beautiful.
I carry this everywhere — in my tote bag, in a backpack, or just from bed to desk. It’s super light, super sleek, and feels durable without being clunky. I got mine in the color Midnight, and the vibe is clean and calming (important for me). It also just feels good to work on something that looks nice. Energy matters.
Battery Life – Impressive.
I can go an entire day — class, writing, editing, everything — without having to recharge. Sometimes even longer if I’m not doing anything super intense. It doesn’t give me that battery anxiety I used to get with older laptops.
Screen & Sound – A little cinematic moment.
The Retina display is so crisp. I didn’t think I’d care that much, but now that I’ve used it, there’s no going back. I watch a lot of YouTube and do some light video editing, and it always looks sharp. The speakers are also way better than I expected — surprisingly full sound for such a thin laptop.
Typing & Trackpad – Chef’s kiss.
The keyboard feels great. I actually enjoy typing on it, whether it’s papers, journal entries, or random 2am thoughts. And the trackpad is big and super responsive. Gestures make switching between tasks feel intuitive and quick.
Ecosystem & Everyday Use – Seamless.
If you’re already using an iPhone or iPad, this fits in like a puzzle piece. AirDrop, iMessage, Notes syncing, all of it — it’s just easy. It’s the little things that make the day smoother.
Who I think this is perfect for:
- Online students who want something light and dependable
- Creatives who like to design, write, or edit without needing a huge setup
- Anyone who likes their tech to feel both useful and good to look at
- People who are kind of picky but in a cute, self-aware way (me)

I LOVE my macbook!! I got it for college (i go to SDSU) and it’s literally helped me out so much! it’s so fast, holds its battery charge (i can literally have days of classes go by and it only drops down to around 50%), and is so lightweight. 100% recommend this macbook to anybody and everybody. it also has the ability to play games like BTD6 or even papas freezeria lol.

I’m very pleased with my purchase of the MacBook Air M2 (256GB SSD). I use it daily for work — mostly Excel, heavy web browsing through various CRM platforms, Word documents, PDFs, and file previews — and it handles everything smoothly and efficiently.
I usually keep it connected to an external dock, but when I’ve used it on battery alone, I’ve easily gotten over two full workdays without needing to recharge — battery life is genuinely impressive.
The portability is another standout feature — it’s super light, easy to carry, and honestly… it looks amazing. Apple really nailed the design with this one.
If you’re considering it for everyday productivity tasks, I’d 100% recommend the MacBook Air M2. Great performance, stunning display, ultra-portable, and incredible battery life.

I finally bought a MacBook after my surface pro wouldn’t power on. I was really use to windows os but seeing how my wife gave our son her MacBook from 7 years ago and it still is fast amazed me.
This MacBook is awesome. Super fast browsing, great picture quality and a long lasting battery. I decided not to use it for work as I want it to be for leisure and not dread getting on it. I absolutely love it.

Love this laptop! It's smaller than the one I had before purchasing this one but it's the perfect size. Fits in my bag, doesn't hurt my back or shoulders when I carry it around. It's fast, no issues. I like the lighted keyboard, brightness settings. I have no complaints. I recommend this laptop for anyone looking for a reliable laptop for work and/or school. Battery lasts forever and I use it all day.

Everything about this laptop is amazing! I had a Dell laptop for many years prior and it was great. But now with the M2, it's faster with a longer (way longer) battery life, it's thin and light. I am enjoying the ease of use.

I really love this MacBook! I bought it for college and it runs smoothly for my classes. I like being able to have multiple tabs open and even multiple desktops. This MacBook charges super fast and also has a great battery life. I was obsessed with trying to find a good wallpaper to do the display justice because it is so clear!! Would also like to say that I loved ordering this from Best Buy as it was cheaper than me buying it from Apple directly and also came super fast, I got my MacBook delivered to me the next day. It also was packaged really nicely in multiple boxes and wrap.

I have the 2022 MacBook Air M2 with 16GB RAM. It is still very fast for school and everyday use. Smooth with lots of tabs and apps, battery life is strong, and it stays quiet since it has no fan. My only downside is browsers can drain battery if you keep tons of tabs open. If you can, get 16GB RAM.

I decided to upgrade my 2019 MacBook Air for this one and it was a great purchase. I have a protective case on it but it doesn’t feel bulky and still is lightweight. A full charge lasts a good bit but I’m not using it every day. Overall for what I use it for, it gets the job done.

This is sleek and great as it could be. It is lightweight yet fast and powerful. Runs the software that used to drag in my other laptop with similar specifications. Running scripts has become faster especially R and Python that require multiple modules and large data processing. Absolutely love this.
