    nice computer. good sized bright screen. limited storage makes transferring files & data to set up new computer a bit of a challenge. works fine for ms office and apple productivity apps.

    Love the Apple Macbooks, all Apple Macs really. Durable and long-lasting as long as you don't spill a full glass of water over the keyboard. My wife's last Macbook Air was 6 or 7 years old and still running well. This MacBook Air is like a jet plane compared to her old one. WOW very impressed and happy.

    I was having issues with the battery and audio of my last laptop so I traded it in for this and it’s wayyyy better!! The battery life is so much better- I use this for school and need to charge it every other day.

    Remarkable what the new chip does for the user experience. I had the old Intel version of this exact computer. I can now run multiple programs without thermal throttling and the fans kicking on. The battery life is also a much better, I’m averaging 13-14 hours per charge. The camera is also improved.

    IMHO...best bang-for-the-buck computer on the market. My wife is apathetic towards most technology (she just wants things to work) and in just a few months of use, she has told me multiple times how thankful she is that we upgraded her from a 7 year old MacBook Air.

    The laptop came on time, the package was packaged nicely, and the laptop had no damage whatsoever. At first, I was skeptical about M1, but I am happy to say I was wrong. It is very snappy, fast, and reliable. I have no problems at all. I highly recommend this laptop and no, I am not a fanboy.

    If you are high school and college student who use laptop watching youtube and netflix. And use Microsoft Office to do homework. Macbook air is the laptop to buy. You don't need Macbook Pro unless you do a lot of video editing or higher power demanding work.

    I purchased this laptop before starting this semester because I wanted to be able to do work wherever/whenever I could. It's so easy for me to carry around that I take it pretty much everywhere and I can do everything I need on it, whether it be school related or not. It really was a great investment!

    Everything on this machine just works! I have used it for OBS to produce live video. I've used this to edit video projects (including creating special bits in After Effects), and I have had no trouble with it at all. I cannot recommend this machine any higher.

    For many tasks (web browsing, writing, streaming, documents), users report long battery life — enough for a full workday.
