Customer Ratings & Reviews

Awesome MacBook! Great for multitasking. Looks great and is lightweight. Fastest laptop I have used in a long time and happy with the great price I received at Bestbuy!

My son loves this computer. The size is great for carrying around in his backpack but its still powerful enough for him to create music and edit videos. It was a good purchase! The M1 chip and Apple's optimization make it a winner for performance and battery life.

I absolutely LOVE my MacBook Air! It does everything I need it to do. It’s fast. It’s easy! It syncs w all the other Apple products I own. The battery life is very very good. The speakers are awesome. I can’t say enough positive about it!

The M1 macbook air is the best macbook air to date. The M2 is just garbage. This stays tru to its original design, feels razer thin, performs well and doesnt have that annoying useless notch

As expected, it meets all professional reviewed of the new M1. The MacBook Air is a nice size, light and powerful. I had to contact apple service to get photos to sync. They were very helpful and got is fixed. This Air is replacing a 2015 MacBook Pro. The new Air is faster.

this laptop has absolutely no compromises. I have never owned an apple MacBook and I was so impressed with the ease of use coming from a lifetime of windows use. The battery life and performance are so far above anything else that this purchase was a no brainer for me.

Love it! Everything is smooth and super fast on this MacBook Air! So many things are improved by Apple's M1 Processor - faster SSD read/write speeds mean everything you do on your computer will feel faster. This change drastically improves speed and battery life. When setting up my Air, I was impressed by how quickly apps open and respond. When you lift the lid the screen is instantly on now. I spent an entire afternoon working on this computer at a cafe, and was still at 80% battery when I left. The reviewers are definitely right - for the majority of people needing a personal computer, this is the computer to get! In fact, if your work applications are cloud based or not too "heavy", you'd be good using this as your main work computer as well. With the speed of this machine, there are less reasons to go with the MacBook Pro now, unless you do video editing all day or something similarly intensive. I'm very impressed with this machine and happy I chose this Mac!

Exactly what I’ve grown you expect and love about Apple! I had a MacBook Pro a few years ago that got stolen and I was forced to use a Dell for 3 years. After 3 years of constant crashing, slow running, slow startup, lost files, and immeasurable frustration I bought another MacBook and man believe me when I say it’s night and day difference! This thing starts up in seconds, the battery lasts longer, it runs faster, it works every time, never crashes…the list goes on and on. I’d rate this 100/10, 1000star rating, AAA+++, and not a single complaint. Even the screen is easier to read, easier on the eyes. Just buy a MacBook already and stop fighting with stupid Microsoft and windows like I did for three years. It’ll change your life and help you be more productive.

Was very nervous going from and pro to an air. But have been very happy. Mainly the small size for my many carry-on flights, this thing has the power. just wished could view on more screens via HDMI, and not only limited to one monitor output

I LOVE my MacBook! It’s everything I could have asked for. I will have to get an adapter because there are no universal ports but that’s a small issue that can be remedied with $30 which really makes it all still worth it. It’s fast, beautiful, light, and the software is amazing!

Love my new MacBook Air. It’s light weight and so quiet. The m1 chip and retina display are amazing. I always buy apple products they are reliable and you get great customer service if you need help for any reason. It is also a beautiful gold color, which I just love.

The MacBook Air has been a game-changer for my sister's school work. Its portability, performance, and stunning Retina display have made her academic life so much easier. The seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem and the reliability of macOS make it a top-notch choice for productivity. I've been so impressed with it that I'm seriously considering getting one for myself. Apple has once again proven its commitment to quality and innovation, and the MacBook Air is a shining example of this. Highly recommended for anyone in need of a powerful yet lightweight laptop.

Switched back over from Surface Pro 7, no regrets. The M1 processor makes this such a smooth machine. I use it for photo editing with Lightroom and Photoshop. No hiccups. Honestly, it’s an elegant design and it’s very light. I’m very happy with my purchase.

To be perfectly honest, I haven't been using this for very long. My Macbook Air bit the dust almost four years ago, and I purchased a Chromebook. I missed my Mac so much that when my CB started to get finicky I decided I needed a reliable computer, and as an Apple person, I went for it. The price was wonderful, although the laptop was made in 2020 which helped in that pricing. The ease of the keyboard, and navigation on this beautiful device is wonderful. I am quickly adjusting to the trackpad, and not touching the screen to navigate, which I do on my CB. The sound, display, and ease of using is outstanding. I love the screensize too!

What can you say its Apple! The laptop is still beating strong, great graphics, long lasting battery life, light weight. Apple is great and we all know it. :)

Got the Macbook Air 13 inch because my old Macbook Air 11 inch was a 2013 one with Catalina on it, and it was just way too old, and I needed an upgrade to do my work and stuff on it. This one was 13 instead of 11 inches, and it wasn't that much of a difference, just a little wider and bigger than what I'm used to. I love it, but remember to get a protective case because it can get banged up easily. So if you get it, make sure you put a case over it.  The open-box MacBook is not bad because it’s the same thing. It just has the manual stickers, and it’s just a brand new one but with a small discount.

Still the best laptop on the market...when will they come with touchscreen?!? overall fast, reliable and quiet. Battery life not the greatest for recharging, make sure you have the correct watts...

I’ve never owned a MacBook ever and I’ve always wanted to experience one because I’ve heard lots of amazing things about them so I finally caved and got one and I got the base m1 MacBook Air for about $1000 and it’s a beautiful laptop their is nothing I could complain about everything was smooth, the laptop never got loud or hot, or lagged at all I would highly recommend this laptop to anyone who needs a good budget laptop

I did a lot of research before deciding on a MacBook Air (too much...). I agreed with all the people who wrote that Macs are for plug-and-play types like I am. I do not have very sophisticated computer needs, so I chose the Mac in the hopes that this will last me a long time. (My HP Pavilion lasted almost ten years before it needed to be replaced, which prompted this purchase of the MacBook Air.) Very fast! But an even better feature: the battery lasts a loooooong time! I kept wondering if the battery icon at the top was working because after so much use, I still had so much left in the tank. I finally plugged it in to charge after a week, and I only did it because it had a quarter-tank left, and I "gassed it up" at a quarter-tank like I normally do with my car... Thank you, Best Buy and Apple.

This is probably one of the best laptops in the market, period! The M1 chip, the design, the portability and the optimized MacOS is a an experience unlike any Windows laptop in this price point. This is perfect for school/office work.
