Had an intel MacBook Pro before and this Macbook Air feels way faster and lighter. It’s great for video editing, audio multitracking, and graphic design. I love it. This computer is a deal. Very happy with the purchase. Only downside to the air model is less ports…but nothing a usb hub can’t fix. Great deal at Best Buy with the price and trade in option.

Love this computer! It is beautiful and works exceptionally well! The sky blue option is so pretty. It’s almost a silver, but has a light blue tint. I ordered a clear blue tinted case so that I can still see it and enjoy the color!

I bought the MacBook Air M4 as a replacement for my M2 version. I liked that the price had decreased, plus Best Buy had it on sale, and that 16GB RAM was now standard. I also liked that Best Buy allowed me to trade in my old MacBook Air and use it towards the purchase. Also liked that Best Buy offered a payment plan so I could spread out the cost over a year with my Best Buy credit card. Plus I could pick it up within hours.
I now own a MacBook Air that is more future proof and a bit faster. The M4 chip is fast and probably more powerful than I need for my simple tasks, but I like the fact that it does have more power if I do some photo editing. I mainly upgraded from M2 to M4 to get the 16GB RAM and since my M2 MacBook Air had a good trade in value, it made it a good deal. The M4 MacBook Air will last me for many many years

The MacBook Air M4 16/512 is a beast of a machine in a small, lightweight package. We caught a killer deal on trading in our M3 16/512 which looked identical in color and form factors but is NOT the same. The M4 adds exactly the extra processing power (and battery life) needed to make a MacBook Air a worthy contender in ANY work or professional situation including heavy video editing. If you're looking at a MacBook Pro, but want a smaller form factor, you should consider this an excellent option. If you need additional ports, put one of the port adaptors on it like we did. They are available lots of places online and don't cost much. Ours is made by Satechi and looks like it's part of the machine. Pops on and off easily - there when you need it and gone when you don't Matches perfectly. See Image.
Where we see the difference in the M3 and M4 is in Final Cut Pro. Videos that took 4-5 minutes to render on the M3 now render in about 1 minute. Adobe Illustrator runs faster, Photoshop runs faster - honestly anything that is requires any processing power at all is like: Flash and it's done. Very happy with this upgrade

Amazing service and product. The computer is lightweight, the battery life is amazing. In the past week I have only charged it once. It is absolutely amazing.

This is a very very good laptop. For the price, it is insane in comparison to other windows laptops and past MacBooks. This MacBook Air is incredible in multiple aspects, one unexpected one however was the insane battery life. It lasts me days without charging. Not only is the product good, the best buy service was also great, never ran into a problem. I enjoy this laptop and plan to use it for college, definitely recomend this for any work you may use it for!

Before I bought this MacBook Air, I was very indecisive about purchasing this laptop verses a Microsoft Surface Laptop. I had the first generation of the Microsoft Surface Laptop and it lasted me a bit but it did not have enough storage and the battery started to drain fast after 4-5 years. A lot of people were telling me to get the MacBook Air but I was a bit concerned because I did not know how to use a MacBook and thought the transition would be tough from Microsoft. However, it turned out fine and after spending some time with my MacBook, I absolutely love it and am glad I added it to my Apple ecosystem! I also really enjoy the 13" size as it fits in my backpack perfectly and fits in some of my bigger size purses as well. I would definitely recommend!

So far, I'm very happy with my new MacBook Air 13" M4, 16GB, 512GB SSD! Love the amount of storage space and color (Sky Blue). I used the Geek Squad for the first time during set up with info from my old MacBook Air 13" from 2019 and was very impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and speed to complete.

My MacBook Air M4 is an upgrade from my M2. The uni-body case is solid, the size is handy, and the keyboard size is more generous. Inside, it handles all my word processing, data management, web searching and online meetings. Old and new software run smoothly. The price was unbeatable. Now, I’m set for a few more years or longer. Kudos also to the Geek Squad who transferred everything from M2 to M4!

The new MacBooks are powerhouses and will handle anything you throw at it. I’m using it for music production and graphic design and nothing so far has been an issue

My first Mac computer and I love it! Easy set up and so user friendly. Especially if you’re used to iPhones and other Apple products. Had to get a new computer several years ago because of windows 10 and now was being forced to get another new computer because of windows 11. Hoping to get off the windows updates carousel. The starlight color is beautiful!
