    So far my MacBook M4 has been amazing. Lightning speed and great performance. This might be a settings configuration that i need to set up but only thing I’m not thrilled about is the loss of the tap responsiveness. Now you actively have to click to select something. Besides that…i have zero complaints for now!

    I have been enjoying this product a lot. I’ve mainly relied on my desktop for my work never really leaving home, and finally I decided to invest in a more portable way to achieve what I need to get done, I have no regrets whatsoever buying this product. The battery life is amazing, I am able to get a full days worth of work off of it after just a single charge, I am very fond of the Mac Operating System, and it’s especially easy to use alongside my IPhone when trying to transfer files when I can mirror my phone onto my screen and just drag and drop files. (that is probably one of my favorite things since I get sent files to my phone a lot)

    Loving this computer. It's my first MacBook that I've bought and I'm only sad I didn't get one sooner when I was in college! Literally everything about it is awesome. Battery life, screen, power, etc. AND I CAN USE MY IPAD AS A SECOND MONITOR!!!

    First time Mac

    First time MacBook user here, and wow. This laptop is a great intro experience. The user interface is easy to pick up and understand, and once you figure out the commands utilizing the Mac button, you quickly realize its very similar to a windows computer, just less bloatware. The screen is beautiful and crystal clear, the keyboard is easy to utilize and the fingerprint recognition is fantastic. They really did well putting this in a thin platform, so well in fact, that even with a case for it, it's still almost 1/4" thinner than my last windows laptop from 2022. Battery life is incredible as well, have used it multiple days with no charging and it still had juice left. 10/10 if you're on the fence, this is the way.

    I didn’t realize how bad my old laptop was until buying this upgrade! I’ve only had for a month, but the battery life is incredible and processor has worked great for my needs (just personal use, but I usually have multiple tabs/apps open at any given time). Additionally, the team was so easy to work with and made the trade in process super quick and easy. All in all, no complaints!

    Great for traveling. As a photographer, going on 2 or 3 extended photo trips a year, I like to copy my images from the camera card onto a computer drive and then begin editing in Adobe Lightroom at the end of each shooting day. This MacBook Air is way more than adequate to the task. The M4 processor and the 16gb of RAM make the work go smoothly and quickly. Listening to music while I work, I am astounded at quality of the sound coming from the computer speakers. The rich, full sound belies their small size. The screen resolution is fantastic and the color rendition of my images lets me see details and gives me confidence to do the bulk of image and video editing on the road, as it were. Final Cut Pro runs smoothly on this for video editing. And, the price, at less than $900, makes it a great value. Thus, it is small, powerful and speedy, while looking and sounding good at a great price.

    Performance and Reliability

    I’ve been using my Mac in 2025 and I can honestly say it’s one of the best investments I’ve made. The speed is lightning fast, multitasking feels effortless, and the battery life easily carries me through a full day of work and classes without needing a charge. The display is stunning — crisp, vibrant, and perfect for everything from studying to streaming. I also appreciate how seamless the ecosystem is; connecting with my iPhone and iPad makes my workflow so much smoother. What stands out most is the reliability. Unlike other laptops I’ve owned, my Mac doesn’t freeze, lag, or feel outdated after a few months. It just works — every time. If you’re on the fence about upgrading, I’d say go for it. It’s sleek, dependable, and built to last. Easily 10/10.

    Fantastic Laptop — A Perfect Addition!

    As an IT professional, a good laptop is essential. For over twenty years I have only ever used Windows operating systems in my laptops and PCs. When it came time to purchase a new laptop, I finally decided to step out of my comfort zone and get my first ever iOS computer. Enter the new MacBook Air M4. This machine is epic. It’s fast, well built, and a great addition to someone who already has several Apple products. Already owning AirPod Pros, iPhone, Apple 4K TV, and a HomePod, this machine is a beautiful final addition to my Apple ecosystem. Everything works together. I easily login to websites and never have to remember passwords. Whatever I do on my phone is readily available on my MacBook, and vise versa. Having a MacBook with an iPhone is so convenient! I am so happy with this purchase. I urge anyone looking for a laptop to purchase this device. It works so well by itself, but the seamless sharing of information between this and an iPhone is unparalleled.

    Purchased this because my 15" laptop was getting a little too bulky to lug around. Not only is the color really nice, but its compact and lightweight so it not only fits in my purse, I can bring it wherever I need to go.

    This machine is a beast. I bought the new MacBook Pro for the performance, but I stayed for the screen. The Liquid Retina XDR display is gorgeous—blacks are inky, and colors pop like crazy. It makes everything from spreadsheets to 4K movies look incredible.

    My first MacBook ever and wow I am shocked. The battery life is amazing and the processing power is everything you need even for medium graphic gaming. For being one of the latest models it's amazing and I am very happy with my purchase.
