Many appreciate its sleek aesthetics and the ample RAM. However, some users find the storage capacity limited and express concerns about the fingerprint susceptibility of the midnight color. A few also reported minor issues with screen quality and occasional overheating.

    Little confusing to get used to the MacOS after using windows for my whole life but once I figured it out it’s been soooo much better and easier dealing with work stuff.

    To be honest, I jumped at this because of the price. The ONLY reason I am giving this a 2-Star rating is to draw attention to the hardcore fact that 256GB just isn't enough to really enjoy a macbook. It might be fine for an iPad, but not a macbook. After the OS -- and now the space requirements of Apple Intelligence -- you really wind up with really limited space remaining for apps and content. I feel that 512GB is the bare minimum to really enjoy these -- or any -- laptops without much concern for space -- unless you plan on working with video. Then, you should be considering a macbook pro with at least 1TB. So I returned this laptop to upsize to a 512GB. Don't let the cheap price lure you in -- Unless you really just need a laptop/netbook and not concern yourself with much else and uninstall all the fluff.

    Great Black Friday deal. Previous MacBook Air owner and was just looking to upgrade. No issues with my Mac as usual. Haven’t used it enough yet to detail new features, but looks wise -it’s sleek and compact and lightweight

    If you’re an Apple aficionado you will marvel at how easy it is to integrate a Mac into your existing devices. Set up was a breeze. Costs more than a standard PC but quality and compatibility seems worth it.

    Easy to pickup from Best Buy. The product itself is exactly what I wanted - thin, sleek, and fast. Great graphics and music sounds amazing from the speakers.

    Absolutely love my new Mac! I thought I would hate the 12-inch screen because my previous laptop had a 16-in screen, but I do not miss it honestly. Got the best deal on Black Friday for this 13-in M3 Macbook Air and am so glad I did. Love love love
