    bEST LAPTOP UNDER $1000

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I would have to rate this product with 5 stars. I did weeks and weeks of research before buying this MacBook Air M1. Initially I was looking to buy the MacBook Air M2 for school (college courses), because the M2 was the latest model of the MacBook Air that was out. I finally decided on the M1 mainly because of price, fanless design, and who cares. By who cares I mean, unless you are using this as a video server or to make music, this is by far the best laptop under $1000 that you can buy

    My $4k MacBook broke and the recall was out of date so I was forced to buy a new laptop. Why did you do this to me Apple? X86 is a massive pain on this. Buy Intel don’t do silicon. Lesson learned. Gonna buy a windows machine and run Linux instead.

    The whole process of this laptop never showing up to my house and then it being marked “delivered” has been a nightmare. Now by the end of this week I will be nearly 30 days from when this fiasco happened and still I have not been reimbursed my 1284.49. I ended up buying the same laptop from a Best Buy competitor and had zero issues.

    I went to Best Buy because I have their credit card. They used to have a store near me. I needed to replace my broken laptop and I chose a MacBookAir. They did not have it in stock so they took my money and promised to get it to me inside of 2 days. 5 days later I had the new machine and I'm still learning how to use it.

    This computer was defective and after 2 days with Apple support and Best Buy, I was only offered 10% discount on another. I guess it’s better than nothing.

    This computer is not worth purchasing. The changes made to the software is not compatible with older computers. I was told to buy a USB adapter to transfer my photos from my phone to this computer, it doesn’t work.

    Quiet, fast, portable as ever. I read some reviews online and even got told by the BestBuy employee that this could not handle Adobe Premiere Pro or After Effects. I bought it anyways to test it out because I had yet to even read a bad review, and ironically, reviews actually stating otherwise. I already edited my first video at 1080p with quality from my A7 IV and GM lenses.

    I had the computer for less than a week when it started randomly shutting down and the speakers were making a crackling noise anytime I played audio. I was able to take it to the Apple store for repair but i'm very dissatisfied in best buy for selling me a faulty product. Next time I will purchase directly from Apple.

    I never purchased anything from you. Someone has used my identity to make this purchase. I have contacted Best Buy about this but to no avail. They even took out a loan for this purchase. Why doesn't anyone from best buy contact me ? My phone # is 615-5000682. You have my email address.

    I am very disappointed that this Macbook will only support 1 additional monitor. It was honestly something I never even thought to question.

    Bought this Apple laptop because I had purchased a IPod and wanted to be able to have the same apps on both so that I could switch between the laptop and IPod - come to find out this can not be done - since the apps are not the same on both - now will have to try sell it.
