Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the first apple laptop i've ever purchased (owned other apple products) an i must say it's pretty impressive. It came with a great security protection plan that covered the application for 6 months so that's a plus. The color i wanted was easy to get my hands on. The laptop its self is very slim an not heavy whats so ever! An the best thing i'd have to say is it makes no noise while in use for a long time (no otter fan) . The downfall to me was that is doesn't have the usb port option that alot of other computers do but not really a huge deal considering this laptop does have endless apps to do things. It also keeps it's charge for a long time which is great for my schooling that i do online. I'm just your average computer person nothing super fancy that i'm using it for so I'd def give it 5 stars

I have never owned a MacBook, despite having an iPhone for YEARS. I was always afraid to take that leap because I was so used to all the other computers I’ve owned in my lifetime: Dell, HP, Asus, etc. Quite frankly, I was scared of change AND could never see me coughing up the money to purchase an apple computer. Well, when my non-apple computer took a dump on me, I was at crossroads - do I purchase a MacBook or should I go back to what I know because it’s cheaper? My husband convinced me to go with the Mac, and purchased it for me for Mother’s Day. I LOVE IT!!! if you are already an iPhone user and are familiar with all its functions, you will absolutely fall in love. It’s fast, slim, and so easy to use! I’m still getting familiar with it, but I have no complaints this far! Will update this review if and when I think of anything else!

I am TOTALLY blown away by this laptop! I haven't been a mac user since high school and quite literally figured since I have an iPhone and an Apple Watch, might as well move on to an Apple computer. And this thing doesn't disappoint! Many speak of the hype surrounding Apple's new M1 chip. It's no joke. This thing is fast. Possibly less important but still blows my mind every time are the speakers! Neatly tucked along the sides of the keyboard, these speakers produce the most "surround sound"-like audio I've ever heard from any computer. Use caution when watching true crime documentaries. This computer is thin, light, clean, yet durable. And with all things Apple, it has that sleek Apple look that everyone loves. In a perfect world I would ask for an original USB A port but we all know USB C is the future, as well as cloud storage, etc. All the things that make our lives easier. But overall I'm absolutely pleased with my purchase. A definite would buy for most anyone!

This laptop is really a basic need. Plenty of power, is light in weight, travels well, and has a long battery life. The Apple M1 chip is such a step up from the old Intel chips.

I bought this as a personal laptop to use along side my work laptop (a MacBook Pro). For all intents and purposes, it's just as fast and reliable as my Pro, and significantly cheaper. It has no internal fan so doesn't ever get loud like the pro does, and surprisingly it has never gotten overly hot or overheated despite being used for hours at a time. It's just as fast, if not faster than the pro, which is one of the selling points for the M1 Chip. Speaking of, as usual, Apple has gotten greedy and decided to no longer rely on outside CPUs (Intel), as my pro and previous models did. Performance/speed is the big differentiator between the processors, but I don't use this computer for much of anything where this increase is super noticeable. Sure, programs load a bit faster, but the difference isn't super noticeable, to me at least. One BIG con to the M1 chip for me, is that I've already noticed that it's less functional when it comes to certain things. For instance, I have multiple external monitors that I constantly hook up to both my work and personal computer. Intel allows for the Pro to operate on multiple screens without any external drivers. The M1 Chip however, currently only supports the ability to use ONE external monitor. I thought at first that something was wrong with my Air when I first got it home and could only get one monitor to work, despite having two monitors connected, the same way I do with my Pro. I ended up researching this though and found that the M1 chip simply does not support this. However, apparently this is something that Apple has mentioned should be available later, via an IOS update. While I hope this is true, Apple hasn't exactly been open and honest about upgrading current features/abilities, so I'm not holding my breath (do yourself a favor and check forum boards relating to calendar in pane on the Apple Outlook app, a feature that's VERY valuable on the PC version that has hundreds of thousands of requests, but Apple still won't make this simple update). If they do upgrade the M1 chip in a timely manner, then my review would go to 5 Stars. However, if this and other updates aren't made, I'd say that you're better off going with a previous model with the latest Intel Core processor.

Apple MacBook Air M1 Chip 2020 If you want to experience significant upgrades in an apple computer, then the MacBook Air with the M1 chip is definitely the one to buy. It's one of the fastest and most cost-efficient choices for a computer where technology has come together to create a tremendous change in experience for laptop computer users. Between Apple's proprietary M1 chip that is fanless, solid state hard drive, retina screen display and upgraded sound system, an incredibly extended battery life before the need to recharge and much more, the new apple technology literally constitutes the wave of the future. The overall performance enhancements clearly put you in the driver's seat and establish considerable measurable distance from the previous evolution of computing in general. Literally every detail has been given attention to improvements with the end-user constantly in mind. Speed of processing is near instantaneous and regardless of software program complexity, the MacBook Air M1 simply sets it all in motion at blistering speeds. While some complain that apple products are costly, the advantages of becoming part of the apple technology environment makes it worth every penny. The seamlessness between apple products is yet again another favorable feature and whether for business or pleasure, you'll find yourself able to be completely connected throughout your array of apple devices. They've literally captured the market in our opinion because their focus upon technology and consumer needs is unparalleled by the competition. It's very safe to say that switching to the apple family of products means never having to look back because the company is constantly taking its consumers forward at an ever faster pace. You should also be on the lookout for the new M2 processing chip and related products that will be driven by it, many of which are projected to be out sometime this year. Very frankly, the experience of using our apple products on a daily basis is one that we look forward to with the complete confidence that we're interfacing with the technology around us using the best possible assets. Throughout our entire experience with apple products since 2011, we've never once encountered problems. Not once, and it represents a shining example of quality control, attention to detail and the constant look well forward into what consumers need most in technology and reliability. So, thank you! You guys are awesome!

Hello from a former Windows laptop user! My Dell laptop was getting a bit dated and lugging it around (15.6” behemoth) was getting old. I was looking for a new, slim Windows laptop running an i7 and a bright screen. Everything I looked at was in the 1000+ range with compromises if I wanted to stay right around 1K. After watching a number of reviews on Macs (and more importantly this M1 Air) I was sold. Luckily Best Buy was running a promo on open box items and I was able to get this in like new certified condition for $780. It came as advertised and setup was quick and easy since I already had an Apple ID as an iPhone user. The transition from Windows to Mac was relatively easy. Using Linux in the past proved to be beneficial. For those who have only ever used Windows XP to Windows 10, it might take a bit to adjust. Bottom line, I love everything about this laptop. It’s thin, fast, has an incredible screen and battery life is amazing.

The MacBook Air with M1 chip is a masterpiece of technology that sets a new standard for laptops. With its stunning design, brilliant display, blazing-fast performance, and exceptional battery life, it's a versatile companion for work, creativity, and entertainment. Whether you're a professional on the go or a student in need of a reliable study companion, the MacBook Air delivers on every front, making it a worthy investment for anyone seeking the best in portable computing.

Love this Mac book air. Easy to use, lightweight, processing speed it very fast and battery life is amazing.

The MacBook is fast, has an excellent display, and a very comfortable keyboard. The battery lasts long, and the design is sleek and durable. Perfect for both work and study. The only downside is the high price, but the quality fully justifies it.

Perfect for college students. It’s lightweight, reliable, and the battery lasts all day. Writing essays, taking notes, and multitasking between classes is effortless. The screen is sharp, the keyboard comfortable, and it runs smoothly without issues. A dependable laptop that makes studying easier

Perfect size and weight. I do various work on my laptop and this is the best one I've used thus far that runs so smoothly. There have never been any issues with it's performance. The M1 makes it so much faster than my last MacBook Air.

As expected, it meets all professional reviewed of the new M1. The MacBook Air is a nice size, light and powerful. I had to contact apple service to get photos to sync. They were very helpful and got is fixed. This Air is replacing a 2015 MacBook Pro. The new Air is faster.

Runs fast, long lasting battery, lightweight, and the perfect laptop to travel with. This is the best and most ideal work/school laptop for the price.

Great laptop even with the low ram the m1 chip does a great job of making this smaller laptop perform well. Would recommend for a lite to moderate user who surfs the internet and does small editing for fun

The sleek design and lightweight construction make it effortlessly portable, making it a top choice for professionals and students alike.

I absolutely loved my Mac book, the battery life was spectacular and I was able to go days without having to charge it. I did mainly use it for school and to study. I recently upgraded to the newer MacBook Air. I do wish they had it in rose gold. All in all it had great great storage for my schoolwork. I would also sometimes watch TV on it while doing work. It ran very smoothly and never had any issues.

Love this MacBook! I have thought about buying one for a long time. So glad I did. It is so convent. Light weight. Just the perfect size. It's pretty user friendly. Runs so smooth just like all apple products.

Easy to use and navigate. Not heavy unlike other laptop. Screen is clear and user friendly. I did not have a hard time transitioning from other brand to apple laptop. You can bring it anywhere without a hustle. I am glad I bought and is using apple products now. Speed is superb and battery lasts a long time.

Initially, I had purchased this for my daughter as a bday gift. After seeing my Son's and testing his out, I went ahead and purchased one for myself, and I'm glad I did!!!! I'm on this more than my phone. I love everything about it. Lightweight, fast, battery life is amazing!!!! I didn't want to fall victim, to all Apple products. But it is what it is!! #TeamAppleAllDayEveryday
