Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this laptop literally 8 months after I bought a HP Pavilion 360 that was so loud and just could NOT handle basic tasks without getting hot. I was so disappointed that I vowed to never use a PC again. That laptop costs way too much to not make it a year. I already have an iPad Air 4, Apple Watch, iPhone and Apple TV's, I figured that this would probably be a nice new change of pace. As a person who has never used a Mac, I can honestly say that for me personally it does take a lot of getting used to, but its a nice new change. I love everything about this laptop. Even typing is a lot easier and much more smooth and I can not even imagine how I was doing it before. I was at home watching tv and doing some homework and I noticed that my keyboard was lit and I LOVE that as well, no more having the light on all night to finish an assignment. It's much speedier than my PC which had about the same specs as far as memory and the difference is huge. This laptop for being the most basic model blows my old PC out of the water. Maybe it's the M1 chip but I can zoom and do other assignments for class without a skipping a beat. I can't believe that I am just now making the switch. I think the only thing that I don't like is figuring out how to do the simplest tasks. I have to YouTube how to do everything, but again, that's only because I've always been a Windows fan. This laptop is so light, I almost forget that its in my backpack and have to remember not to be so rough with my backpack. My PC took a beating but I didn't care because they always managed to still work, even after stepping on them. I'm not so sure about this one and I don't want to find out. It was pretty easy to set up considering I didn't transfer anything from my PC. I wanted it to be like brand new and to only have what I need on here. the battery life lasts me until I get of of work and it still has about 36% left and that's from using Zoom the entire time and having the lighting pretty dim. All I can say it, it lasts a lot longer than my HP which would last me about 3 hours with Zoom before I had to charge. Basically, this was one of the best decisions I could have made and I hope this laptop will last me for years to come. Thank you Apple for such amazing products.

I have always been team Apple. Their products cost more but it's always worth the money. I was looking to upgrade from my 2017 MacBook Air and I caught this one on sale in late October for $849. I didn't think it would be much different from my old MacBook but I was wrong. The graphics are very good, its very responsive and using universal control from Mac to iPad is a breeze. I am college student so I need 2 screens to complete my tasks. I'd recommend the laptop to anyone looking for an entry level macbook to complete day to day tasks.

I recently got my hands on the Macbook Air M1 2020, and let me tell you, it's a total game-changer! First off, this thing is super lightweight, making it a breeze to carry around. But don't be fooled by its slim profile – it's got some serious horsepower under the hood. In fact, it's even more powerful than my previous Macbook Pro 2018, which had an i7 core and 16GB RAM. The speed and performance are off the charts! Now, let's talk about the battery life. I'm blown away by how long it lasts on a single charge. I can easily get around 15 hours of usage before needing to plug it in again. It's a game-changer for my productivity, especially when I'm on the move or working remotely. One thing that really surprised me is how quiet this thing is. There's no fan, which means no annoying whirring sounds while I'm trying to concentrate. It's perfect for late-night work sessions or quiet environments where you don't want to disturb others. And let's not forget the keyboard. Apple finally listened to its customers and ditched the butterfly design. The new keyboard feels so much more comfortable and responsive to type on. It's a huge improvement, and I love the satisfying clicky feel with every keystroke. All in all, the Macbook Air M1 2020 is a real winner. It's lightweight, powerful, and boasts an incredible battery life. Plus, the absence of a fan makes it a peaceful work companion. If you're in the market for a new laptop, I highly recommend giving this one a shot. It's a fantastic investment for anyone looking for a top-notch computing experience.

Let me start by saying that my family and I are HARD on products. 8 year-ago, my husband gifted me a new MacBook Pro. It took me a little bit to get acquainted with the OS but I quickly did. I shared that computer with my younger children (then aged 8 & 9). In these 8 years, our little laptop has seen a few states, a pandemic, dirty hands, a bunch of gaming websites, and been dropped more times than any of us are willing to admit. NEVER a virus or need for repair. I did replace a battery once and a few charging cords along the years (when the cats were young and bite-y)…but that has been it. My youngest child (now 16) had pretty much commandeered the laptop for the summer so I decided to buy a new laptop for myself as an early graduation present (I’m finishing nursing school in December). I didn’t even bother looking at anything other than the MacBook. Although I am a pragmatic person, this little MacBook Air is certainly attractive. Sleek, slender, and faster than lightning and screen is unbelievably clear. It does everything I need it to do and the charge lasts FOREVER. Here’s hoping I can get at least another 8 years out of this one.

Coming from a windows laptop this was a fresh of breath air. The m1 gives this laptop the responsive and easy of use of an iPhone. I found myself doing things I would usually do on my phone (because it turns on instantly) on my m1. The laptop gets a similar cpu score to my i7-9700 desktop which blows my mind. The laptop has no fans and is cold to the touch when doing anything light. It only got warm/hot when I benchmarked it. Personally, switching from windows has been amazing. I’m a student and all my apps work with Mac OS. I’ll have to get parallels later on so I am a little hesitant on running Windows on my Mac, but online tutorials say it works great. Battery life isn’t even a topic on this laptop. It suffers no drop in performance on battery and the battery lasts days unless constantly on it. As a student, forget about taking a charger to school. As a web browser and email checker, your machine will feel like it’s powered by the sun. Standard with Macs the speakers are increadible for the form factor. The keyboard is also realky nice and easy to get used to coming from windows. The keyboard also feels bigger than what I had on my old 15inch Lenovo. The finger print entry is also instant access into the laptop. I definitely prefer it to any face scanner as well cause I’m often in class with a mask on so faceID doesn’t make much sense. I doubt any windows laptop can compete. The display is super nice. Would appreciate a touch screen or 144hz, but I guess Apple wants to keep those features in the iPad Pro line up. The bezels are a little big for my taste, but the sleak design makes up for it. I bought the gold m1 air and put a black debrand skin on the top. Makes the laptop look very nice. Would recommend to any student that doesn’t need a gaming laptop (don’t recommend for architecture students). This laptop has more power than most people will ever need in a laptop, but put at an extremely competitive price. At this point, the only laptop that can compete is apples next laptop m2 or m1x.

I own two Mac Airs. One from 2014 and this one. I would like to compare the two because I feel there are some features on the older version that are more desirable. 1. The Battery The new Mac battery lasts forever and charges quickly with a USB-C port. I favor the older magnetic charger but that's a small thing. 2. Display The new display is very clear however, the screen extends to the very edge of the device similar to the iPhone. So if you drop this device you're screwed. I dropped my 2014 and it dented the edge of the screen but didn't break the glass because of the extra aluminum edge. I don't think the new Mac screen would survive this. 3. The web cam The 2014 is very dark for some reason. The new Mac seems to have fixed this issue with a nice and clear video. 4. USB ports The 2014 has 2 USB-A ports, a lighting connection port, phone jack and an SDXC card slot The new Mac only has two USB-C ports and a headphone jack! so you need a number of adapters to connect anything which is quite annoying especially since my wireless mouse uses an old USB-A. Apple only sells limited adapters so you need to buy PC adapters which I'm not crazy about. However I have a dual USB-A adapter from Dell that works great 5. The Chip The M1 chip is lighting fast. Even though my 2014 has an 1.4 Ghz dual core I5, it doesn't compare. 6. The famous logo It's another little thing but, I liked the illuminated apple logo on the back of the 2014. Maybe its no longer there to extend battery life? Idk but I thought it was a nice feature that separated apple from the rest.

As someone who has been using Windows PCs for as long as I can remember, I was a bit hesitant to make the switch to a MacBook. However, after just a few days with my new MacBook Air 13.3" with the M1 chip, I'm completely sold! Right out of the box, I was impressed by the sleek design and premium build quality. The aluminum unibody feels solid and well-constructed, yet it's incredibly thin and light, making it easy to carry around wherever I go. The compact size is also a refreshing change from the bulky Windows laptops I'm used to. Setting up the MacBook Air was a breeze, and the transition from Windows to macOS has been surprisingly smooth. The user interface is clean and intuitive, and I'm amazed by how well-optimized all the apps and software are for the M1 chip. Speaking of the M1 chip, wow, is this thing fast! Coming from an older Windows machine, the performance boost is night and day. Everything feels snappy and responsive, whether I'm browsing the web, working on documents, or even trying out some light photo editing. The 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSD storage have been more than enough for my needs so far. Battery life is another area where the MacBook Air shines. I can easily work unplugged for an entire day without having to worry about finding a power outlet. This kind of freedom and portability is something I've never experienced with a Windows laptop before. I'm also really enjoying the little touches that make the MacBook Air a pleasure to use, like the backlit keyboard, large and responsive trackpad, and the gorgeous Retina display. The vibrant colors and sharp detail make everything look stunning, whether I'm working, browsing the web, or watching videos. Overall, as a lifelong Windows user, I'm thoroughly impressed with my first MacBook Air experience. The combination of powerful performance, exceptional battery life, and a sleek, portable design has won me over. I can't wait to continue exploring all the capabilities of this amazing little machine!

Overall, the MacBook Air is a top choice for those seeking a reliable and stylish laptop for everyday use.

It was actually bigger than I thought. I cant say how it works i bought it for a birthday gift so its still in the box but judging by the looks it was well worth the money sometimes items look one way in the picture but really be small this is a great size no false advertising

I bought this online in “Open box” condition meaning the display model. It was described as being on excellent condition and all in all I ended up paying around $970 for it after taxes and fees. When I first received the laptop I was immediately in awe of its beauty (I bought the rose gold version) However upon trying to set up the laptop and gain access into it I ran into a bunch of issues which required me to contact Apple support. Best Buy had not done a software reset on the laptop before shipping it to me which resulted in me not being able to log in or set up my password. It was only after 2 days of receiving it that Apple finally pin pointed the issue and was able to walk me through doing a complete reset thereby allowing me to finally gain access into my laptop! Ever since then I’ve been in love with it! My only small complaint would be that I have to buy an adapter now to be able to connect my phone to it, other than that this was a great buy!

Overall an extremely well made product. It runs cool and remains reliable as I’ve owned the device for the past three years. It’s incredible to see it still match up to the new releases. It was worth the investment in initial release and I still bear the fruits of my time spent on the air.

It’s Simple and does the job it’s supposed to do. I was a mostly a PC person, so getting used to the commands gets tricky, but I bought a shortcut sticker to help with that. I don’t perform a lot of tasks on it, other than wfh via a vpn. I have to use MS Teams messenger to communicate with team members, and screen sharing is clear. Using screenshare on my MacMini M1 isn’t clear. So odd. But there are no delays or lags and have no experienced any glitches. Sound is good. Watched a few streams and it’s crystal clear. I use it for hours so I have to charge it every so often after 6 hours or so. It’s light weight and easy to carry in my shoulder purse. I love that this will last me for quite sometime. I bought a case cover and a keyboard cover.

I've purchased this model of the MacBook; the day after Christmas. When I bought it, I fell in love with it. I bought the Gold Color; which I thought was cute. Although the MacBook came with the 256GB which I thought was enough. I bought this MacBook for online school, it is so flawless. I love the quietness, no viruses and the compatibility. It is very fast. This is my first MacBook and I will keep it forever.

The new Apple M1 chip is AMAZING. This new MacBook Air is so powerful for the price and incredibly thin and light design. I just switched back over from Windows, and this new MacBook Air is miles faster and fluid. I can put the new Air under a heavy workload and it handles it just fine- even with no fan! Apple was able to make the thermal efficiency so good, that it’s able to handle hours of work without the fan. Great battery life, great screen, great processor, great design. Overall, I love the new MacBook Air!

I love the color of the laptop; the pink is beautiful, and original. I like the way it handles and the ease of getting through different things The graphics can’t be great!

It's been awhile since I've had a Mac, and I forgot how well-designed these products are. The Air works wonderfully and the light weight and small size makes it easy to grab and take with me on the move. For some reason it's hard to successfully select and move items around using the track pad (and I don't remember that being an issue on previous Macs I've owned, so this was a surprise) but using a mouse resolves that pain point. One thing about Apple I've never understood is why there isn't an easy-to-see-or-use cut option along with their copy option when you right click on a file or item. Sometimes they don't even offer the copy option when I right click on certain files. I get around that with keyboard shortcuts, but it seems like a simple, essential feature for menu options when you right-click on a file. Of course, I'm not a power user of Apple computers, so maybe I'm missing something. I especially appreciate the way they've designed the iCloud to span across devices and computers. It's so amazingly easy to move files between my MacBook and my iPhone. It makes a lot of tasks much easier. Overall, the positives far outweigh any negatives.

My husband purchased this is a Christmas gift for me which was a pleasant surprise - even though I'd been talking about it for weeks..lol. I have ALWAYS been an HP girl desktop or laptop. But since I have started to slowly transition to more Apple products, I was ready to take the next step to see what all the hoopla is about. I love that I can literally start something on my 12 Pro Max and finish it right here on my MacBook Air...EVERTYHING just flows w/out a hitch. Now I will say it will take some adjusting w/the MS Office platform and the command / control / options buttons. But for the most part, it has been fairly easy. I look forward to seeing everything else this beauty can do. She is so lightweight and adorable. I love that I was able to customize her and get her all cute. Based on other reviews, I love that the MacBook will stand the test of time.

Was in great quality, no scratches or indents. Performance is up to date. No technical problems or difficulties up to day. Has option for multiple webpages at the same time when using. the Great storage space for school overall.

I bought these laptop yesterday but I didn’t want to leave a review on it to quick I wanna see what the best these laptop can do I was checking on the scratches and the damage on the laptop but there isn’t any damages am so relieved. IS SO BRND NEW, The Laptop is so cute,. The laptop is so thin which is why I like it bec it is easy to lift it and also easy to just throw it in any bag. Why I liked the laptop bec it is easy for me to throw it in any bag and really good for school. it has every upgrade in there also it’s really good for business or marketing. The packaging is so so good not to even talk about the battery these baby right here last so well it is comfortable to take the laptop anyway without worry about charging it u can leave the charging wire at home it’s still fine just take the laptop and go by ur day and the speed in it oh my god I don’t even know what to say IS GOOD am telling y’all It is worth the money. Another thing am curious about is that does it’s supposed to have a light on the back of the apple screen maybe it’s because I have been using a 2013 MacBook Air that was damaged but I like it. you don’t need to have a double doubt whether you should or you shouldn’t buy it. JUST BUY THE LAPTOP AND YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED
