I've been a Mac user for a long time, and I have to say I'm very impressed with this equipment. The M4 makes a massive difference in performance compared to my previous MacBook Air, plus the option of buying it with 24GB made so much sense. Biggest thing for me on this model is how easily it handles 2 additional screens, plus my chrome doesn't crash the laptop anymore.

The MacBook Air with the M4 chip is a dream for students. It’s incredibly fast and handles everything from research and writing papers to video calls and creative projects with ease. The 24GB of memory means you can run multiple apps without slowing down, and the 512GB SSD gives you plenty of space for files and media. It’s super light, making it easy to carry between classes, and the battery easily lasts a full day on campus. The Midnight color is sleek and stylish—definitely a head-turner!

It is very decent laptop, really good display for a smaller screen laptop, however the battery isnt as great as advertised. It is good, better than most laptops out there with same size, but with it it also has downsides like no gaming, but realistically if you are getting a macbook, you likely wont be gaming on it. But if you are just browsing your options, it is a great laptop for work and school, just not for gaming (if you do video games).

Easy to set up. Super fast, very light and the screen is not to bright. I only use it in the morning for 2-3hrs and the battery last a full week. Love the color.

MacBook Air, amazing. It is what it is so most know what to expect. I use it for coding in Unity, music production in logic, video editing with Final Cut, and some light gaming. Works smoothly for all of these. I’m coming from a 14 year old iMac and an 8 year old windows laptop so this upgrade was much needed.
I would buy from Best Buy again. Shipped extremely fast. Product came in damaged. Hard to mess up an Apple product. 5/5!

From never owning a laptop in general, this being my first, I’m in love with it. It’s perfect. I can multitask and I love how it sync up with my iPad and my iPhone overall great device for a first person or even students in general.

I had a great buying experience with Best Buy. They honored a price match and offered me a very competitive deal, which I truly appreciated.
Now, speaking about the device itself—coming from nearly 8 years of using Windows, I’m genuinely impressed by the speed, fluidity, and instant responsiveness of the system. The transition has been smooth and satisfying.
That said, I recommend being thoughtful about your configuration before purchasing. Apple's unified memory architecture means that RAM is shared between the CPU and GPU, so it's important to choose a configuration that aligns with your usage needs.
In my case, I frequently run multiple Chrome profiles with several tabs open, use development tools like IDEs, and run messaging, email, and other productivity apps simultaneously. My typical RAM usage is around 18 GB, and there's still a bit of headroom left — so planning ahead really paid off.
