    I love it, it’s fast with a sleek and elegant look. I must say it took me a couple days to learn how to work all of its features. First macbook ever and honestly it was worth the hype and the price. I’m an Apple girl, and I’m glad I added this new addition to my Apple family

    Bought it right before my new school semester started and I love it! I use it almost everyday for school and have really appreciated how fast it is. I originally had a 2015 MacBook air but it was having some issues with the keyboard, so I decided to just upgrade. It's so nice and sleek also.

    Best Laptop I have owned. Resolution, speed, and battery life are outstanding. But this you have come to respect from Apple. The 799 sale price prior to Christmas wasn't a bad deal either. You will not be disappointed in this product for likely years to come.

    it was a good purchase. Easy to travel with, light, nice color. Very cost-effective. Even my wife wants one too (which makes mixed feelings for me, but I always support her, so why not?) But I told her, only if we get the BestBuy gift card, so that is why I am writing this review now. Thanks for the card in her name in advance.

    This was a great buy. It has been great and use it every day. With flawless integration with my other Apple devices. Highly recommended for school usage or the on-the-go photographer. With awesome battery life, I only charge it once a week and it gets me through that week without issue.

    great compact and slim laptop, super fast, 256gb is enough to save a large amount of files, if you need more hard disk space you can get an icloud plan and problem solved

    Remarkable improvement from intel. Sure, there are incompatibility issues but those will go away with time and aren't a big deal because of how well the air runs those apps in emulation. The battery, no noise and very little heat more than make up for the short term program compatibility issues.

    I'm a iMac guy but needed something portable. I purchased this before trips to Atlanta and Vegas for work. I was astounded that a macbook air can render after effects compositions. I can't imagine what the M2 is capable of for it's size.

    I never owned an Apple laptop before. Things I like: light weight, GREAT battery life, coordination with my phone. We’ll built- you can see the quality. Things I’m not too keen on: different than pc’s opera rating system- takes some getting used to. Not being able to use Excel, Word etc unless you download the programs for Mac. Some things like resizing pictures and cutting and pasting, although it’s something I’ll probably get used to. All in all I’m happy so far- takes some getting used to but will work out in time.

    My brother loves his laptop. Though the specs are nothing special, the M1 chip still holds up pretty well and is worth it at a discounted price tag.

    I keep trying the OSX envirnonment. The one thing that sends me back to MS? I am addicted to a touch screen. I tried for six months. I kept using my iPad or Windows 2 in 1. Finally took a bath and traded this in. Not because of it's OS, not because it was too fast. Not because the speakers were plenty good and loud. The screen was great, maybe a bit too bright for me at it's highest setting. Oh and the battery life. Come on man! 14 plus hours? Who needs that much battery life? I gave up all this, over a touch screen? Yup, pretty much. Apple has a problem with competition. They are a bit self hating. They wont put OSX on their new M1 iPad pro. So as not to eat away at their MacBook sales. They won't put a touch screen on their MB Air....well, you get the point. So, Surface Pro 8 with an i7 16 gig set up will have to do. If I could only recall where I put my screen cleaning cloth.

    I purchased this MacBook for my daughter to replace her current windows computer one month ago. She loves being able to sync it with her phone! Loves the rose gold color, and the sleek design! It's incredibly fast, doesn't overheat, and great for multi-tasking! So far, very satisfied!

    It’s a good product. My only issue with bestbuy. They only have student discounts at the beginning of the school year as if computers don’t break in the middle of the school year. Otherwise, I am getting used to a Mac and love it. It’s super light. Runs fast. And gave me the most bang for my buck.

    Great laptop. Fast and has good battery life. It is half the price of the 14 inch MacBook Pro and I didn’t need a super powerful computer so this is perfect for getting the job done.
