Macbook Air 13.3 Review

I am still blown away by the performance of this computer. Since I am in college I have to use my computer a lot. It has been a rock so far. Over the past couple years all the windows laptops I had ended up frying and breaking after a single year of use. This laptop is working well and continues to blow me away and also moves at lightning speed.

I love my new MacBook Air. I have wanted a Mac for a long time and this one does not disappoint. It’s the best laptop I have ever had. The battery lasts so much longer than any of my others ever have. I have an IPod, Apple Watch, IPad and IPhone and I love how everything now syncs and I can get my text messages and all my apps. I had the Microsoft suite which automatically just transferred to this computer and docs loaded straight from the Cloud. Very happy with this purchase. Won’t go back to PC ever again.

If you're not editing videos from a drone then the additional ports provided by the Macbook Pro aren't necessary so you can save money by going with the Air.
As a programmer I'm concerned with 8GB's being too low for memory and burning out the hard drive.
However, as a student without the necessary skills to run XCode, simulators, emulators, multiple K8s clusters, and the various services for my startup I think this machine is more than enough to cover highschool and parts of college(if not all).

Been having mine for a month now and I love it. I added a pic of how it appears with a clear case that I bought off of Amazon and it looks even better and sleek (I kinda like that the logo doesn’t glow, it makes it look more classier in my opinion). Fall semester starts next week for me, so I’ll really get to test out and see how it actually functions for hours at a time. On that note, so far so good. Everything runs smooth and the battery life is great. Depending on how much you use your laptop, sometimes I’ll only need to charge my MacBook 2x a week. 10/10

It’s just the right size - smooth and sleek and easy to use for a 1st year college student.
I also like the Touch ID for quick access without having to type in a whole password.

I have never owned a Mac and honestly I thought it was very pretentious to be an Apple product snob. BUT, it is fantastic! It’s so quick and smooth. The track pad was a little tricky at first, but once I got the hang of it, it’s been great! And the color is just delightful.

Purchasing an open-box Mac M1 from Best Buy was a decision I'm absolutely thrilled with, and I'd like to share my experience to help others understand the incredible value of this choice.
First and foremost, the cost savings associated with an open-box purchase at Best Buy are outstanding. The Mac M1 is already known for its superb performance and cutting-edge technology, but getting it at a discounted price adds another layer of satisfaction. Best Buy's commitment to quality means that open-box items are meticulously inspected and certified to be in excellent condition, so you're essentially getting a premium product at a fraction of the cost.
When I received my open-box Mac M1, I was pleasantly surprised by its condition. It looked and felt brand new, with no noticeable wear or blemishes. Best Buy's attention to detail in their open-box products is commendable, and it truly feels like you're unboxing a new device.
Another advantage of choosing an open-box Mac M1 from Best Buy is the warranty and return policy. You still get the standard manufacturer's warranty, which provides peace of mind in case any unexpected issues arise. Plus, Best Buy's generous return policy ensures that if you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, you have the flexibility to return it within the specified timeframe.
Additionally, Best Buy's customer service has always been exceptional in my experience. They're ready to assist with any questions or concerns you might have, ensuring that your open-box purchase is a smooth and worry-free process.
In conclusion, buying an open-box Mac M1 from Best Buy is a smart move for anyone looking to own a powerful and reliable Apple computer without breaking the bank. The savings, combined with the product's pristine condition and Best Buy's excellent customer service, make this choice a win-win. It's a testament to Best Buy's commitment to providing high-quality tech products at accessible prices. If you're considering an open-box purchase, I highly recommend exploring Best Buy's options – you won't be disappointed!

I love this computer. It's really fast and can run many programs simultaneously without any drop in performance. The screen is bright and high-res, and the battery really does last all day. I was worried that it would be a step down from my previous MacBook Pro, but I haven't missed a thing. I've purchased two of these, for both myself and my wife. They are more than enough for medical and/or graduate school.

Let me start off by saying that I will never go back to anything other than Mac. I bought my daughter a used iPad and the battery finally gave up. I asked her if she would rather a new iPad or a MacBook, she said she didn’t care so I got her the MacBook, I am so glad I did, she loves it and uses it daily. It’s super light, she carries it with her everywhere. Other than the Touch Bar, I can’t tell a difference between this and my MacBook Pro. Highly recommend. I will be purchasing another for my other daughter.

I was rockin' a 2013 model MacBook Pro when I seen that Best Buy had the MacBook Air on sale and that gave me a reason to upgrade since my Pro was too old to upgrade any further as far as the OS. I have not been disappointed at all, the new Air is super fast and the battery life is fantastic! Great value for the price and just a great tool for all of my computing needs.
Picture added to show the thickness difference in the old Pro and the new Air.

I love my MacBook Air. I purchased it on Sale to add to my Apple Collection of work devices. The best thing I love about this device is how smooth it sync with my other Apple products. I wish it had a touch screen not sure what the hold up is other than that’s what they sale ipads for. Lol This version is a great everyday laptop. It’s not slow but I’m sure a Macbook would handle more complex tasks better. I have two 13inch iPad Pros and they are all about the same in height, weight and screen resolution. Functionality is the separating factor.

Read BEFORE purchasing “Open box” condition!

I bought this online in “Open box” condition meaning the display model. It was described as being on excellent condition and all in all I ended up paying around $970 for it after taxes and fees. When I first received the laptop I was immediately in awe of its beauty (I bought the rose gold version) However upon trying to set up the laptop and gain access into it I ran into a bunch of issues which required me to contact Apple support. Best Buy had not done a software reset on the laptop before shipping it to me which resulted in me not being able to log in or set up my password. It was only after 2 days of receiving it that Apple finally pin pointed the issue and was able to walk me through doing a complete reset thereby allowing me to finally gain access into my laptop! Ever since then I’ve been in love with it! My only small complaint would be that I have to buy an adapter now to be able to connect my phone to it, other than that this was a great buy!

I love the MacBook Air. It’s perfect for college. I used to have a MacBook Pro, however, I needed something more lightweight (the MacBook Pro weighed down my backpack a bit) it runs just as good as my previous MacBook Pro. I thought there was going to be a big difference, but there’s not.
I like the display, keyboard, and the speakers.
I’m not a big gamer, but I do use my MacBook Air to play the sims. It runs great! No issues so far.

The MacBook Air with the M1 chip is a game-changer. Its performance is stellar, thanks to the M1's power efficiency and speed. The fanless design keeps it whisper-quiet. The battery life is remarkable, easily lasting a full day. The Retina display is vibrant, and the keyboard is comfortable. The M1's compatibility with iOS apps is a bonus. However, limited port options might be a drawback for some. Overall, it's a fantastic ultraportable laptop that sets a new standard in performance and battery life.
