    I love my laptop! I'm a Nursing student and I needed a laptop that was reliable and comfortable to keep in my book bag and I am obsessed. The battery life is amazing, the sound output is really good compared to the last macbook air (2017) I owned

    I have had this computer for over a month now, and absolutely love it. I love compatibility with my other Apple devices. It has made working on the go so much easier. For students entering high school and college, this computer will become a vital part of your work style.

    Graphics on this computer are amazing and if you use apple products regularly it’s easy to navigate. I just wish I got one with more storage.

    Love it but unexpected pains from lack of ports

    Computer runs fast, but having issues with the lack of ports. Only 2 usb-c ports means I have to use a docking station for all my peripherals and external drives. It's been a pain trying to find one that doesn't lag (I process RAW photos directly from external SSD drives). Compared to my older 2015 iMac, the time to save large TIFs is much longer. This disrupts my workflow. Either I need to find a 4th docking station that's much stronger, or maybe upgrade to the MacBook Pro. Other than that, this computer rocks!

    Great size! Fast! No USB 2.0 ports just two USB C ports, forcing you to buy adapters to use your USB 2.0 devices.

    Finally switched to a MacBook from a pc and I can’t believe I waited so long to do it (considering everything else I use are apple products). If you’re debating it, you should buy it.

    THIS THING IS AMAZING..... I replaced my 2020 Intel i3 Macbook air with this and it's night and day. This feels like a highend 16" Intel based MacBook Pro with 16gb of memory. It's that incredible. If you're going to buy a mac buy one with Apple Silicon i.e. M1 etc

    Use to have a windows laptop but as time went on it started slowing down and decided to go back to apple. Never getting windows again, this laptop is fast, snappy, and never had it crash or ran into any issues.
