As a new time MacBook user it took some time getting used to, but after a few weeks it was easier. Depending on the color, I had the midnight blue; It shows fingerprints everywhere, not a huge deal just something to be aware of.
The sound is great especially for such a compact device and the display quality is amazing. Doesn’t overheat as long as you clear your cookies, caches and large unimportant files.

Great Laptop. Even Better Best Buy Experience

We all already know how solid the MacBook Air lineup is, so I won’t repeat specs or benchmarks. This review is really about the buying experience.
My wife and I both needed new laptops for work, and with a great deal available, we decided to purchase two MacBook Air M4 14-inch models from Best Buy. On top of that, I also had to trade in my old MacBook, which I expected would slow everything down.
To make things more challenging, it was pouring rain that day, and the store was busy. Despite that, the Best Buy staff handled everything incredibly well. The associate who helped me stayed calm, efficient, and made the entire trade-in and pickup process feel effortless. What could have been a long and frustrating visit turned into a smooth, painless experience.
In short: amazing laptop, excellent value, and outstanding customer service from Best Buy. This is exactly why I keep coming back.
Highly recommended.

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

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!

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.

Obsessed with my new MacBook Air <3

My old MacBook (from 2014) finally died, so I bit the bullet and got a new one, and I have to say I'm obsessed. It’s fast, smooth, and handles everything I throw at it, from work stuff to streaming videos to browsing a million tabs. It runs super quick, and the battery lasts all day. Plus, the sky blue color is so cute, it sparks joy every time I see it. It's lightweight, sleek, and just feels smart and super aesthetic. Totally worth it.

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!

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

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!

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.
