    After reading many reviews, I opted for Macbook Air M1 instead of the newer model for my daughter at college. She says it is a beast, handles multiple tasks at the same time. Solid purchases with NO regrets for not getting current model

    I bought this computer as a laptop for my personal use (not work) a couple of months ago. I’m pleased with it, the quality of image is great and the machine is fast (full disclosure: I use it for basic tasks, so nothing that challenging). The only thing that I miss from the old models is the keyboard (which I know has been phased out a while ago).

    Apple products are consistently superior compared to other cheaper laptops. I had to return a Windows laptop that was 200-250 less. I should have gone with a MacBook without looking at other laptops. With blotware the Windows laptop was simply annoying. So glad I return it and got a MacBook Air M1. It’s the 2nd time getting a MBA. Shouldn’t have wasted time and effort trying others.

    Capable for most all teacher tasks. Using Chrome allows for designing student projects to be done on Chromebooks. If working virtually it does have limitations: running hardwired external TV screen while presenting video over a Zoom is too much (using Air Cast is better).

    This is my first MacBook ever. It’s totally different from Windows. I love how I can start tasks on my iPhone and continue on my computer. Another thing I enjoy is the battery life. One thing that takes some getting used to and can be distracting is navigating the mousepad.

    Got this macbook for my mom for her birthday and she absolutely loves it. She was a bit overwhelmed at first from how it can be different from windows. She loves how easy it is to use as well as safari being synched from laptop to her phone. She also enjoys being able to send a quick text message on her macbook so she doesn't have to find her phone.

    I am enjoying my MacBook Air. I like the slim and trim style and size. However, I do wish it had a portal for a thumb drive. Unfortunately I didn't even think of this at the time of purchase. Your sales person was very helpful.

    Very good laptop. I had the older version of the MacBook Air and traded in for this newer version and it is a lot better than my old one. It has better screen quality so everything looks clear on the screen and it has twice the storage for all my school work. Also it is lighter and a little more compact making it easier to carry around with me.

    Apple used to be wildly expensive for the amount of product you received, but the new base-level MacBook Air *WHEN ON SALE* is a phenomenal deal...except for the storage space. · All prior x86 apps that I have tested are fully functional in the M1 environment · Parallels is running great with a Windows 10 ARM release · The 8GB of RAM limitation has not yet been a problem with limited photo/video editing · 256GB of storage is not adequate in 2021. The cost to upgrade to 512GB is also a ridiculous amount and not worth it. External options are almost mandatory for people with heavier file workloads. · Serviceability is at an all-time low. Hopefully a Right-To-Repair mindset is more widely adopted in the future, but with Apple, I doubt it.
