    Awesome! This is a great buy. It is so easy to use and integrates so well with the iPhone and the iPad. Everything crosses over so well. After using regular PCs for so long, the OS took a little getting used to but I think is much better. Graphics and visual appearance is amazing and the computer is so fast.

    Got his new MacBook to replace my old one. It is so much faster and looks so much nicer! For the price this is by far the best laptop you can get. I am super happy with my upgrade! 10/10 would recommend!

    Excellent performance, better than a MacPro

    As an upgrade from a 2016 MacBook Air, this is fantastic. The screen is beautiful, the sound quality is 10x better, and the speed is 20x. We compared the speed and response time of this new MacBook Air to a MacBook Pro i7, and it was faster in many tasks. Now everyone in the family wants one. For $750 with no tax (purchased during tax free weekend), it was a fantastic deal.

    I was disappointed Apple went with USB-C instead of the Magsafe. Not compatible with my other devices. There was a yellowish hue on the screen and it took several days to figure out how to alleviate it. I had problems with the brightness...had to keep keep adjusting anytime I closed the computer. I have a 2017 Air which is a better design but needs new battery and gets hot. All in all, I was not a fan of this model so I returned it. I might try the new model down the line which hasn't come out yet. Meanwhile, just depend on my iPad.

    Excellent laptop, it’s all about the operating system and how well it works. After many years of windows, glad to have switched to Mac The M1 Air base model is fine, fast, performs all tasks well. We won’t use it to do high level movie editing or graphic design, etc. it will do the basics quite well Can’t beat it for the price, bestbuy matched Costco and had the right model and color in stock

    Could use another port

    The computer works great. My complaint is that there are only two US-C ports. The power cord also needs to be plugged into one of these ports (there isn't a separate connection for the power cord). Since most of my accessories (a back-up drive and the receiver for my wireless mouse) plug into US-B ports, I got US-C to US-B adapters. The ports are too close together to have both adapters plugged in at the same time. I haven't found an adapter yet that will let me have everything plugged in and work at the same time. This is an issue if you want to use several accessories at once.

    This is my third MacBook Air, and it is the third one I am getting from Best Buy. I use this laptop for travel and it is a sturdy and reliable computer that has all of the things that make a Mac a Mac. The new display is astounding in clarity and color depth. The addition of fingerprint locking is a real plus. Add to that Best Buy service and this is the laptop you need.

    For the money, this is one of the best quality computers you can buy. It just works, is wicked fast (like faster than many gaming laptops fast), and is solidly built. The screen is high quality, and I can’t think of a more iconic student computer than a MacBook. This MacBook Air version just happened to be the best value for the money in an Apple product in a long time.

    Best ultrabook I've ever owned.

    I've been using this laptop for about 2 weeks now, and it's been reliable and very, very fast. All the features that have been implemented are really nice to have, such as opening the lid and having it promptly up and running. I never thought it would make any difference for my use, but it does. Also, it's very fast for almost all the tasks that I've thrown at it. I often do light work, such as web browsing, Word and Excel and some video editing for my child videos and some work videos as well, and even using Adobe Premiere Pro, which's not optimized for it yet, runs very smoothly, with one or two glitches here and there. I've used a MacBook Pro 13 from 2014 and 2018, and then migrated to a Razer Blade 15 2019, but none of them were as good as this simple 8 Gb and 256 Gb SSD MacBook Air (except for gaming, of course). The keyboard is excellent and much better than the old version butterfly mechanism ones, which started failing on me after 2 months on my old Pro 13. The screen is alright, not the best looking ones with these bezels. And build quality, well... Expect an Apple product build quality, so, it's pretty good for its class and price. I'm thinking of buying another one with more RAM and SSD storage, and keeping this one for my wife, but, truly, I'm already very satisfied with this one. If you own a MacBook Air or even a MacBook Pro 13 with the low end specs and if you're thinking of upgrading, this is definitely a buy, again, with some more SSD storage.

    Super fast computer. Very light. Superb design. It feels like a well built and well designed device. Apple leaves nothing to compromise.....it is the Mercedes of laptops. I wish it had a touch screen, but the iPad works pretty well for that! I've used many computers, but since 1984, my favorite has been the Mac. It is just an better experience all around.

    I bought it for myself as a broke college student and it was worth it. Works better when i am doing homework and the battery lost so long. Bought it with progress leasing and that help me with the payment.

    This is the best MacBook I’ve ever owned. I previously had a 2012 pro and a 2018 air and this blows them both out the water. Love the speed and long lasting battery. Perfect for my short video editing and streaming.

    Love this new MacBook Air! I was on a MacBook Pro previously and the transition was so easy!! It kept all my pictures, passwords and files as well as all my settings when logged in and set up with my Apple ID. This slim new design makes is easy to work anywhere! The picture quality and speed are just what I need for college courses and at home bill pay. Thanks again Apple!

    I love this computer. It is lightweight but with a fast processor. It does all of the applications that I need as a college professor. I love Apple products as the transfer of information among all of my apple products is easy and seamless. I would recommend this laptop to anyone needing a lap top.

    This is my first Mac laptop and I purchased this computer for school and so far it works great. I’m still trying to figure out the controls but overall the battery life is long, display is great and etc is good, It’s worth the purchase.
