Best laptop at an affordable price. I was on a budget and desperately needed a good laptop for work and studying. One day I was browsing and the internet looking for a good deal I even went to the Mac Store. Then suddenly I was browsing around the Best Buy website and there it was, the same MacBook Air I just saw at the Mac Store a few hours earlier at a better price, it was the same brand new one! I was amazed, and bought it right away. Best purchase ever! I even paid the 2 years Apple Care plan but haven’t used it since my MacBook Air looks and works is if I just bought it. If you are looking for a durable, great battery performance, fast efficient laptop, excellent display and graphics, I truly recommend this one right here, this is definitely my Best Buy in a long time.

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.

The best gateway entrance to the Mac

I have always wanted a MacBook, ever since I was a little kid. But, there was always something that stopped me from getting one. They always mentioned that the Air wasn't very good, from 2011 all the way up to 2019, reviews always mentioned the multiple flaws MacBook Air had; from the thermal throttling, to the super small SSD (128 at base price), over $1000, then the Butterfly Keyboard etc. The list went on and on, and I really thought that it wasn't worth the money. Until, WWDC 2020, Apple announced they would start making their own chips straight from home, I was so excited for this new generation, it reminded me of the time when they went from PowerPC to Intel. The excitement was there, and I loved the new unibody that started in 2016, with the removal of unnecessary ports for the average Joe. Everything was the same, but the new M1 chip. That is when I realized that this M1 MacBook Air was the one for me. I didn't hesitate and started saving until I had enough to buy it. And, I absolutely made the best decision in purchasing it. It is amazing, it's super slim. portable, super fast processing speed and power. The screen is beautiful, the bezels are unnoticeable. The keyboard is outstanding, To be completely honest, this laptop makes you want to be more productive, just because of its speed and its ease of use. If you're thinking about purchasing a Mac, this by far is one of the better choices (and the cheapest nonetheless) The charger is also outstanding! 30w is all you need for this little thing
Recommendation: I would just like to say that you should consider upgrading the SSD size, at least to 512GB, 256GB is fine, but you won't feel the need to download and have only the essentials, 512GB is such a sweet spot and won't have to worry about deleting things in the future. RAM upgrade I wouldn't recommend, unless you are a serious power hungry user.

Beyond my expectations

I recently bought the MacBook Air M1, base model. I am a programmer and I dedicate myself to making both mobile applications for Android and iOS, web applications and some game development with Unity. The use I give it is not exactly domestic. I have been able to have a node server running at the same time as Unity consuming information from the server, and it has no problems. I have also used Android and iOS emulators (which consume a lot) at the same time. The funny thing is that I bought it thinking of using it for a period of 6 months when the new MacBook Pro M2 Pro/Max comes out, and I think it will give up for the whole of 2023 without any problems. From what I'm having I don't think it's worth going to an M2 because the difference in power in the personal I don't think justifies the price. If you really need more power than the M1 can offer you with 16Gb of ram (I use 8 and it's impeccable), I highly recommend going for an M1 Pro. Greetings and I hope this can serve as a reference for other programmers who have doubts about the capabilities of this machine to work.

M1 Air 13 Fanboy!

NOTE: I have a Mac Pro (Trash Can) with an Xeon processor and 32 GB RAM that I always have on my main setup. My Macbook Air is the mobile computer that I love.
I am an engineer in a well-known company and industry and let me tell you that this is a perfect machine for daily use. The 13-inch form factor with an all-day battery is impressive, plus I wanted this for my daily job with regular code practices to keep myself sharp.
This has been one of my favorite pieces of tech that I carry around all the time in my house without thinking that it will have power and need a charge (taking my mental stress away).
I also spent 15 days on a 14' M2 Pro Macbook with 32GB ram 512 SSD, and a 15' M2 Air with 16 GB ram 512 SSD for another 15 days, I still chose this machine (added both memory and storage information because I have had a taste of power before this).
If you need a laptop with an awesome battery and portability, and have a little money (or cloud syncs) to keep your data accessible and even dare say light development (YMMV: maybe cloud IDEs will be better, but if you are practicing you need those) go for it!
PC: MKBHD (too lazy to transfer them from phone)

This is my first MacBook and I absolutely love it! I have officially gone over to the Apple side. It is so easy to use and a beautiful design. The battery life last longer than any other laptop I have owned in the past. The screen is vivid and easy on the eyes. It talks to the other devices that I already own which is super cool. The keyboard is a dream to type on and I am enjoying having lighted keys. I thought I would need to buy a separate mouse but the trackpad is so user friendly. No need to spend the extra money. My favorite thing about this laptop is how light and portable it is. It will be perfect for when I go back to college in the near future. I plan to use this laptop for many years to come.

The MacBook Air 2020 is a sleek and lightweight laptop that offers excellent portability. Its Retina display delivers sharp visuals, and the keyboard is comfortable to type on. With the transition to Apple's M1 chip, it provides impressive performance and power efficiency. However, it has limited ports and may not be suitable for heavy gaming or demanding professional tasks. Overall, it's a great choice for everyday use and productivity on the go.

My daily driver is a Mac Studio so I was looking for a travel work computer. My number one priority was light weight. This Macbook Air is so easy to tote around because it barely weighs anything. I can carry it in one hand. It is small enough that I can enjoy watching movies on a plane by placing this on the food tray in front of the seat. The screen is beautiful and bright, pefect for watching HD movies. It can easily handle Excel spreedsheets and Word docs. Just a great all around laptop. I chose this over the newer M2 MacBook Air because I love the classic wedge design.

Upgraded from a 2017 Air. Screen is visibly sharper, the processing speed is faster. I use a second screen, often with streaming news feeds or YouTube videos open, while working on items open on the laptop's screen. Sound is good too. Incredibly lightweight for travel, and I never worry the battery will quit before I do.

Pro Photographer, long time PC user... Mind Blown

I've always been an avid PC user. I went to college and was actually instructed/learned on Mac. I thought it felt clunky, but then again I also was pushing deep familiarity bias. Assumptions and habits made me just get used to Windows and lean towards rejection of other options. It also didn't help that Apple's price point was a bit insane in 2008.
Fast forward to 2021, now a professional photographer who utilizes my laptop constantly.
Quick Response: "I'll never turn back"
Does it do everything a Windows laptop can? Yes
Does it have every single feature a Windows laptop has? No
However, it's the "feel" that completely sets Mac apart from PC/Windows. From the hardware, ease of use and general navigation you just truly see incredibly fast that Apple takes deep attention to every detail very seriously. My best comparison is assuming PC/Windows laptops are a car, having a LOT of power under the hood. However, it was assembled by some idiot, who also decided to cut corners on the paint job. Does what it needs to do, but it looks/feels kind of crappy and you run into a bunch of small, annoying little issues that tend to add up when you utilize it daily.
Just a few of my own personal favorite aspects, not to stretch out a website review too far.
1. Track Pad
I have always used a mouse. Editing photos, it just increased my speed/accuracy to get through sets faster. Apple's trackpad on the MacBook has legit made me unplug my house. It's legitimately perfect, from functionality to feel of the haptic feedback I've never experienced anything like it. PC/Windows laptops have nothing that comes anywhere close to this.
2. Keyboard
Same situation as the mouse. I basically avoided laptop keyboards like the plague. I would plug in an external and lay it over etc. Never going to happen with Macbook's keyboard on these laptops. Like the track pad it just feels/functions way better than anything I've ever used before.
3. M1 Chip
It's fast. Like, really fast. I barely see anything hesitate like the chip is thinking, aside from a slight stutter when I open a larger app like Lightroom.
To wrap this up, all I can say is at it's price point vs the competition you would be insane to go with anything else. Is iOS a bit of a learning curve? Yes, but I will confidently say I figured it out in a few days and was cruising through my work like I had never left PC.
Hope the review helped!

Took me a minute to figure out some stuff because it functions a bit different than my iPhone and my iPad but once I figured it out it’s easy to use, compact and works great. Only thing it didn’t have was a USB port but I bought an adapter and problem solved. Now I have 4 ports. I got the gold one. It’s pretty and beautiful display.
