    Great Laptop. It is super quick and very probable. I have learned it super fast even after coming from windows and recommend it for everyone. It has been great for school and work along with just watching content and shopping. I will say fingerprints are bad and some mac related issues are annoying but definitely not a turn off. Would 100% recommend, also very nice screen that is perfect size.

    great laptop I wanted the MBP but I don't technically need it for my use. So I decided to save money and go with the MBA is sleek super nice and quiet. So much nicer when using it. Aswell as very quick I did a huge deep dive into which Mac to get and you don't need majority of the power that most of these laptops come with. M3 MBA is overkill and works great.

    This small and quick MacBook has become my go-to laptop for presentatoins and everyday work. It is smaller than I was used to, but this has not been distracting. It's slim size and light weight make it easy to tote to classes, and it was a snap to set up from my old MacBook. The battery lasts a long time, and its speakers are powerful enough to reacha classroom of students.

    MacBook Air 2024 Review

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently upgraded from a 2019 MacBook Pro to this 2024 MacBook Air. I’ve had it for a few months and can happily say that I am satisfied with the device so far. I’m a graduate student and recording artists. So, this computer has really been put to the test with research and hours of use to the use of various DAWs, audio interfaces, and vocal stacks for recording ideas. That’s just some of the basics of the things I use it for. It really gets the job done. Of course, every device isn’t perfect and there are times where I would a little more. However, I am getting bang for my buck. Will consider making purchases like this again in the future.

    I’ve been using a Pro for many years and wanted to replace my computer with a slim lightweight computer that would be more comfortable to travel with. Took advantage of the black Friday deals. I went into the store knowing exactly what I wanted. Delivery was fast and I’m very pleased with the selection and price paid.

    I bought this as a replacement for my 2013 macbook air since it was no longer receiving updates. It worked fine, but security updates are good. I got the new one on a good sale. As for this newer model, I miss having a little metal border around the screen so there's not as many fingerprints on the screen, but the screen is beautiful. Love the updates and it works amazing as did my old macbook. If you need an updated laptop, this should be your go to. I'm not generally an Apple person, but I do love the Macbook!

    I purchased an iPad and MacBook Air for my daughter online this past Christmas from best buy, and the process was so easy and hassle-free. The website had great options, and I was able to grab amazing deals. I took advantage of the 24-month 0% interest financing when buying from best buy, and it made all the difference! It is so easy to manage the payments over time with no extra cost. This option truly makes big purchases more affordable without any financial stress. I’ll definitely be using this financing option again for future purchases! Is the best way for me as a father to have the satisfaction to reward my kids this time of the year Delivery was prompt, and everything arrived well-packaged. My daughter is loving her new gadgets, and I’m very pleased with the service. The entire online shopping experience was smooth from start to finish. Definitely recommend this store for anyone looking for quality products and an easy online shopping experience.

    MacBook Air review

    After 6 months with the MacBook Air M3, I can confidently say it’s the best laptop I’ve ever owned. It’s fast, silent, and incredibly lightweight—perfect for both work and travel. The battery life still amazes me, easily lasting a full day without needing a charge. The display is crisp and vibrant, and the overall build feels premium and durable. I’ve used it for everything from video calls and writing to photo editing and streaming, and it hasn’t skipped a beat. The M3 chip really delivers on performance, and I love how smoothly it integrates with my other Apple devices. If you’re considering a new laptop, I’d absolutely recommend this one. It’s been a joy to use every single day

    From the moment I unboxed the MacBook Air 13-inch with the Apple M3 chip, I knew I was stepping into a new era of performance and elegance. The Midnight finish is sleek, modern, and subtly bold—perfect for creatives and professionals alike. Performance: The M3 chip is a powerhouse. Whether I’m editing high-resolution wedding footage, designing cultural graphics, or multitasking across apps, this laptop handles it all with zero lag. The 16GB unified memory ensures smooth transitions, and the 256GB SSD offers fast boot times and ample space for essential projects. Display & Design: The 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display is stunning—colors pop, details are crisp, and the brightness is perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. The fanless design keeps it whisper-quiet, and the lightweight build makes it ideal for travel and on-location shoots. Battery Life: I easily get 15–18 hours of use on a single charge, which means I can go from client meetings to editing sessions without reaching for the charger. Best Buy Experience: Ordering through Best Buy was seamless. The staff was knowledgeable, the delivery was prompt, and the packaging was secure. I appreciated the clear communication and easy setup support. Verdict: This MacBook Air isn’t just a laptop—it’s a creative companion. Built for Apple Intelligence, it’s ready for the future of AI-powered workflows. If you’re a designer, filmmaker, or storyteller looking for a reliable, stylish, and high-performing machine, this is it.

    All of the key features and design elements introduced with the M2 redesign are carried over to the M3 MacBook Airs. So that means things like the fanless body made from recycled aluminum, the beautiful Liquid Retina displays, the excellent 1080p FaceTime camera, the great-sounding speaker systems, MagSafe 3 charging and dual Thunderbolt-USB 4 ports, are all part of the M3 Air package. The colors are the same as before too -- midnight, starlight, silver and space gray -- and the midnight finish has an anodization seal to reduce fingerprints. However, that also means things like the camera notch at the top of the displays, the fact that there's Touch ID on the keyboard but still no Face ID to match the iPhone and iPad, and that the MagSafe connector and both USB-C ports are crowded on the left side, so there's no option to charge from the right side, are still here too. Changes like these typically wouldn't get made until there's another major redesign, so I didn't expect them. That doesn't make them any less detracting for me, though.
