    My MacBook Air was pushing 7 years old and starting to break down, so I had to buy a replacement fast. I was thrilled to find the exact same model as my last one at BestBuy for such a great price! From the time I ordered to the time I got everything set up, it only took a few hours to get back up and running for work. I've had the computer about a month now and it's awesome so far. I honestly couldn't imagine why anyone would pay more for a different MacBook. This one is solid.

    I received the best customer service while buying this and got it during one of their good deals and got this just below $1,000. Laptop works great and the apple care is definitely worth it since it's not the most durable laptop and i had already dealt with screen issues that I luckily fixed with a cleaner thats specifically gently for laptop screens. As a college student this is a pretty decent laptop and still runs microsoft 365 which is a service a lot of my college peers are using for their classes. I'm not really using it for intense gaming other than roblox but it does hold up pretty well while running games like that. overall this was an investment for my college career and hoping the best with this neat laptop

    No question, great purchase!! Of course, the MacBook Air is from Apple so it is beautifully designed and easy to use - right of the box. Oh, easily portable as it is so light. I highly recommend and would, without a doubt, buy it again.

    We love the power and the way this machine likes to please. Fast moving and it makes our work a breeze!! We definitely don’t consider it a chore working on anything we need to get done. I was put off a bit at first by the smaller keyboard real estate that it came with, but Ive soon grown used to being able to quickly get needed work done and it soon proved me wrong. This machine is a good looking piece of technology. Paramount Performance. Proud to have it out and about anywhere.

    This laptop replaced an old used MacBook that we had been using for quite some time. the performance difference is phenomenal. never seems to heat up despite not having a fan. Can go days without charging with our usage. Great laptop.

    Got a $100 student deal on top of the sale price. For the price, I don't think there is any other laptop than can beat on the design and the performance. Even the base model could do advanced processing like photoshop and Lightroom without any issues

    The Macbook Air with the M1 chip is terrific - excellent performance, much improved battery life, and all this at a reasonable price. In our view, the value proposition is significantly better than the Macbook Pro.

    I love it!!! It was easy to set up, and it is easy to use. The price was great too. The only fall back is that my internet usage has gone way up since using it. But I get all of my favorite apps that I want to use. It has been keeping the kids entertained as well.

    Purchased for my wife for our anniversary. She's newer to Apple (was an Android user when I met her) and now is thrilled with all of her Apple devices, this being one of her newest ones. She loves the battery life, the look, and the ease of use.

    A great laptop that is fast, easy to use and great picture. This was a gift for my daughter, who was able to move everything from her Apple phone to this computer in minutes. It is a great size and easy to travel with. Would recommend to anyone looking to upgrade.
