    I went into the store to order the item, tell me why the "Supervisor" ordered the wrong freaking color?!?! Even after I told her multiple times, Space Gray, she goes ahead and orders the Gold.

    Slow machine Below-average battery (not at all as advertised). For basic stuff, I got 4 h. Poor pixelation So-so keyboard (it feels cheap) I would qualify this as a mid-range laptop at most.

    The Perfect Laptop for Students

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The MacBook Air is one of, if not the best laptops, on the market. Recently, I made the transfer from Windows to macOS; I love the clean and simple look I'm used to seeing on my iPhone. When I turned on my Dell laptop, it took two minutes to reach the login screen. With my MacBook, it only takes seconds to get to the login screen. The MacBook maintains its quick speeds when I open applications, making it easy to navigate between applications. One of my favorite features is the split-screen feature, which allows me to multitask with ease. If you are a student, Apple offers a $100 discount on several of its products, and it even comes with a free pair of AirPods, which usually retail for $159. As for the laptop itself, I have come to appreciate how light it is, especially in comparison to my Windows laptop, which took an effort to carry around. It is certainly easier to carry my laptop around campus. The battery life is also a bonus. Since I’m a student, my screen time is roughly 5-7 hours a day, and the battery usually lasts me two days. The only con is the price. While I love Apple products, I do wish they were less expensive. If you are in the market for a new laptop, I recommend looking into the MacBook Air. It is a reliable laptop that features a sleek design and an incredible battery life.

    Did not meet expectations, first one froze before signing in, tried to factory reset it a couple times but was still freezing after. Second one was slow and sluggish. Disappointed.

    I’ve always been a Mac user and have never seen the problems that I’ve faced with this one. A Mac that lags and needs to be restarted is not worth buying. Disappointed.

    I love buying Apple products, and the Macbook Air is one of the best I've bought so far. It's lightweight, sleek and fast. I bought the 256GB Macbook Air, and it's enough for me to surf the internet, watch movies and listen to music. A must have gift for the holidays.
