    I have always wanted a "Mac" Laptop, and a couple of days ago, I bought one. For years I heard a lot of talk about how superb Apple is, that PC's are a waste of money. They said that it's superior quality justifies the high price. I'm sure my opinion will change, but right now... Trying to get this thing setup without concise instructions, is driving me crazy. I don't want to read about the history of Apple, or how a certain thing works. I just want a 1, 2, 3, step instructions on how to get things done or where to find this or that. The most basic tasks, i.e. how to open and close an app, deleting a document, and Lord have mercy, all these emails and passwords. One wrong move and you're dead in the water! I had to erase the hdd three times, and might have to do it a fourth time. Apple YOU HAVE GOT TO DO BETTER WITH SETUP INSTRUCTIONS!!

    Touchpad is very difficult to use. And the laptop keeps forgetting my password. I’ve been using Apple and Macs for decades and know how to use them. This is the worst.

    Terrible experience buying from BestBuy

    Terrible experience buying from Bestbuy! I ordered a MacBook Air which was supposed to be delivered today (3/4/2024), but I did not receive it. When I checked the tracking, it says the item was returned by someone. The carrier probably took it someone else's home and returned it, I am not sure. I have to wait for them to receive the item back to process my refund. In short, I do not have the laptop which I needed so badly nor do I have my refund! What a shame!!!

    Its not as fast as I thought it would be. Video software lags. No USB ports. Could be better in that aspect. The picture quality is amazing though.

    •Very laggy when opening more than 3 windows. •Low & dimmer quality pixels compared to the pro. •The price difference between the air & pro says a lot. •If you’re someone who who strongly relies on laptop work whether it be for school or work, I’d go with the pro not the air - especially if you’re needing to make quality edits.
