I am really loving my new MacBook. I had every other Apple device, but my computers were always Windows based. Having switched to this MacBook, I am enjoying how fast this laptop is, it really has good snap. I think it meets all my day to day needs. Definitely a good buy for daily use. I also love the that battery lasts long. I’ve only had it for a few weeks, and I think I have charged it a couple times.
The only con in my opinion is that I can’t have the laptop open when I am displaying on a different monitor.

This is my first ever purchase from Best Buy and My First Apple MacBook device! The delivery experience was butter smooth and flawless with sturdy packaging and the contents were secured.
I will summarize M3 MacBook in a nutshell
Pros:
* Light weight (Lighter than my 200 pages notebook).
* Very long battery life.
* Seamless integration with apple ecosystem including iPhone and iPad (can be extended as a display).
* Easy file transfer across iOS devices.
Cons:
* I miss gaming
I wanted to own a MacBook for 2 primary reasons that cannot be done on other systems
1. Xcode apps - develop iOS applications
2. Light weight powerful device for portability
It's a great device for everyday usage as well as for developers.

An amazing laptop - but you probably already knew that. I bought this because I was starting college and I knew that I would need a laptop to last me at least 3 years and have good battery life. With those criteria the MacBook was the obvious choice considering I already have an iPhone and an iPad. BestBuy was also having a sale on it, so I picked it up and it does everything I need it to do and more. Very premium feeling device, that is blazing fast at everything I throw at it. Do no regret buying at all!

I purchased my MacBook back in August for nursing school because my iPad was no longer compatible with ExamSoft, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! Everything about this MacBook is incredible. The performance is seamless, the design is sleek, and the battery life is absolutely amazing—it easily lasts through long study sessions and lectures. It has been the perfect companion for my studies, and I’m so glad I made the switch!

The M3 chip is super powerful. The 16gb RAM and the 512gb ssd storage combined with the power of the M3 chip make this MacBook run smooth and efficiently. You can easily multitask without any delay or slowdown. The battery life is amazing compared to any other laptop I’ve ever owned. I definitely recommend this product for any college student or small business professional.

It’s honestly such a great upgrade from my last MacBook. I love the speed and display. The processor. The color is beautiful. The backlit keyboard is perfect. Didn’t think I’d need that, but I love it. Mousepad is nice and big which is an upgrade from my last MacBook. Overall 10/10

Great upgrade from the MacBook M1

I upgraded from the M1 MacBook Air 13in unit to this one, and the most significant differences are 1) The screen seems much bigger even though it is not, 2) The battery life is much longer - thanks to the 3 micron tech in the M3. Although the M3 benchmarks 1.6x the M1 for the vast majority of everyday taks you will not notice the difference as the M1 version was pretty quick anyway. Overall I am very pleased with the upgrade.

This computer is great. It's powerful enough for running logic or garageband sessions. As well as photo editing with photoshop and/or lightroom. Battery life is incredible and with how thin and light they've gotten these down to; the best portable laptop on the market IMO.

I recently upgraded from a 2017 MacBook Pro to this one. I'm impressed with the battery life and that it doesn't have the keyboard issues that plagued the previous model. I debated between this one and the new MacBook Pro, but I ultimately got exactly what I wanted. As a remote worker, I can handle all my daily tasks seamlessly and more quickly. My productivity has increased fourfold. I highly recommend this product.

upgraded from the macbook air m1 2020 and wow there's definitely a difference! I love this laptop. Runs so smoothly and the screen is just so beautiful. i like that this one is more boxy than my other one if that makes sense? Like, i couldn't get hard cases to fit well on my other one but, on this one the first case i bought fits perfectly. The starlight is a really nice color and it's noticeably faster. I only play Roblox on my laptop and it's running a lot faster and clearer on this one. Definitely recommend if you're looking to upgrade. It's a simple computer and wow, the camera dude is sooo much better than my last computer. I'm so excited about that haha because I have a lot of virtual meetings so now I can look crystal clear on them!!

The laptop is really good the performance is amazing the keyboard and trackpad feel good. A little of an adjustment coming from a windows laptop and coming from a bigger laptop but the portability and light weight of the laptop make it worth it.

The display is really good, keyboard is great and the battery too. The performance though could have been better for graphic intensive tasks like it doesn't perform good when recording the screen in 4k
