    I love this MacBook Air. I am a professor and have a business. The MacBook syncs with my phone and makes life so much easier. I really like that I have the ability to sign PDF documents electronically. Makes life so much easier. No need for a scanner! You can do all of that from this MacBook! I am so happy with this purchase. It also fits nicely in my purse because it is super thin and light.

    Great laptop, and a great deal during a Best Buy discount. This laptop serves all my needs. I was initially concerned about the sturdiness of the MacBook Air, as I've only used laptops with a larger form factor in the past, but the construction is so solid I feel completely at ease lugging it around in a high-paced work environment. It's a great machine. Fast, solid, and good looking.

    Still comparable to newer models with a better price point. Fast, great for watching Netflix and even website design. The touch ID was a surprising feature. Would recommend for those trying to get more bang out of their buck. And college students trying to save some money!

    I Love my MacBook! I’ve been waiting a looooong time to finally get one. I was unsure how I would like the keyboard layout because I’m so use to my HP laptop but it’s super easy and comfortable. Finally having the whole apple ecosystem makes life easier. I don’t constantly have to have my phone or watch by me. I get all calls and messages right on my laptop. Only thing that was frustrating is the camera quality. I would rate it a 1 maybe a 0. I haven’tseen a camera that crappy of quality since my flip phone in 2010. You’d think this being a newer laptop they would’ve realized it. Not really a big issue because I use my phone to FaceTime and video chat anyway.

    It works fast and it’s air cooled so no fan is needed. It’s light weight so it’s easy to carry.

    MacBook with M1 chip on fire

    Got this MacBook to replace crappy Intel Windows PC. Transitioned everything Apple. Incredibly fast and reliable. The Apple M1 chip is everything they advertised. Instant start up from sleep mode, zero internet lag, and everything from email to spreadsheets opens super quick. The resolution is unbelievably clear/life like. Very happy with purchase. No more Windows/Intel ever again for me! Apple products, apps, and programs seamlessly move from device to device.

    A surprising upgrade from my 2018 MacBook Air

    I was initially hesitant, seeing as I was upgrading from the 2018/2019 model (same processor from both years). Everything is instant, from the second you open the lid to using the Apple internal apps. Safari, messages, even scanning faces within Photos is much quicker than the gen before it. And, the keyboard is significantly better than the 2018. Bonus - I've got a 38in 144hz, 3800x1600 monitor, and it runs it at full res and refresh rate. Something I could not do on my previous MacBook Air.
