    The reviewers are right, this device, albeit already 3 years old, is such a powerhorse. Snappy and light it easily beats other pc laptops twice it’s price. You wont got wrong with it.

    awesome laptop. the M1 chip is literally a game changer. Will never go back to intel chip laptops that sound like a 747 jet airliner in a cold winter Christmas Eve when youre trying to make it home for the holidays and youre worried about the weather getting worse from the winter storm.

    Just switched from being a forever windows user...now that pretty much everything is web based I figured now is a good time to drive into the Mac and apple ecosystem. Everything is great after I figured the workaround using display link for the 2nd monitor support. The M1 is super fast and the hardware is silent.

    Great laptop, extremely comfortable to use. A classic design that it's still very attractive. High performance with very little power consumption -- the battery lasts a whole day of typical office use.

    Super easy process to pick it up in store and the laptop works perfectly. Came partially charged (enough to last me 6 hours) and the set up was quick and easy. Exactly what i wanted in a laptop

    My dinosaur (MacBook Pro) saved the day

    Processing is excellent. Loved it! I returned the computer after 2 days because the screen went blank; I thought I had gotten the Black Screen of Death. The only way one could see what was happening was connecting my tv and using it as a monitor. I called Apple Support after trying different commands with no success. They told me to just return it to Best Buy and NOT use up my Apple Care. I felt a little bad for the Apple agents. They were having a hard time since it’s a new processor. I got another MacBook Air M1. Let’s see what happens with this one. I’m sure I just got a lemon. The irony: My dinosaur (11 years old) MacBook Pro, ended up saving my day, since my MacBook Air went blank. If it happens again, then we know Apple screwed up.

    Great Computer - Cable has a smell to it.

    A very good computer for the money. Very capable and real-world battery is about 9 to 10 hours. The reason for the 4 out of 5 is the cable it came with. I ordered this computer twice and both times the cable it came with smelled toxic. I returned the first one and the second one had the same smell so I just replaced the cable myself. Not sure how wide spread this is but I have heard this on blogs and with my own experience. But, as far as the hardware you cannot go wrong for the price and speed of the new M1 Macbook. The fanless unit is also a pleasure to work with if you don't like fans buzzing.

    Son loved it for college. Love the size. The color. Brought a cover for it and did not stay on it but think the quality of the laptop seems would be manageable without the he cover.

    I only had this for a month but this Mac is definitely an upgrade from earlier versions. The battery life is longer, it no longer runs hot and have its loud fan running. I use this for college and so far it’s doing great keeping up with all my assignments and tabs that I work on at once.
