    I love everything about my MacBook! It’s beautifully made! Best Buy made purchasing it so easy. I bought it on the app.. and did a contactless park and pick up. I use my MacBook for personal business use and it’s been great. The battery life on this thing is incredible! The FaceTime camera is as well!

    I bought this computer for college. It was easy to setup and the battery lasts a long time! It starts up quickly. I'm curious about the new M1 chip and hope it does everything as advertised over the long run. I added an Office package to it as well. For college, this computer does everything I need!

    Very good for school! I bought it hoping for the best and it gave me just that! I already have another computer that I use for more demanding things like coding and playing video games, so it's nice to carry this one around to my classes.

    Bought this M1 version instead of the new M2. It works just as well as the M2 and better in some cases. Doesn’t get as hot and it’s thinner towards the bottom of the keyboard which is way more comfortable for typing

    I was really undecided about buying MacBook as I have so many other Apple products, got it and happy I did. Love my cover and Apple mouse I got as well to go with it. Best Buy is my number one store!!! I can always count on it’s products and know so will lot be disappointed.

    The laptop came on time, the package was packaged nicely, and the laptop had no damage whatsoever. At first, I was skeptical about M1, but I am happy to say I was wrong. It is very snappy, fast, and reliable. I have no problems at all. I highly recommend this laptop and no, I am not a fanboy.

    Bought the computer for school and so far no complaints! Never heats up and runs tons of college tabs at once with no problems. I purchased it for 750, it was well worth it.

    Love the Apple Macbooks, all Apple Macs really. Durable and long-lasting as long as you don't spill a full glass of water over the keyboard. My wife's last Macbook Air was 6 or 7 years old and still running well. This MacBook Air is like a jet plane compared to her old one. WOW very impressed and happy.

    Remarkable what the new chip does for the user experience. I had the old Intel version of this exact computer. I can now run multiple programs without thermal throttling and the fans kicking on. The battery life is also a much better, I’m averaging 13-14 hours per charge. The camera is also improved.

    I purchased this laptop before starting this semester because I wanted to be able to do work wherever/whenever I could. It's so easy for me to carry around that I take it pretty much everywhere and I can do everything I need on it, whether it be school related or not. It really was a great investment!

    I was in desperate need of an upgrade and I’m happy I got the MacBook. Came in my favorite color and does everything I need it to do and more. Display is so clear.
