    A Worthy Investment

    Posted .

    Too much hype on the new M1 Macbook air, so I caved and bought one. I spent 5 hours on it, mostly writing and surfing around on Safari. You already know buying a Macbook, you're getting an amazing build quality, perfect keyboard and track pad. Seriously, you won't miss anything about your old laptop once you start using this thing. Fingerprint reader is ace too, adds a nice convenience when logging in and using passwords. You don't even need a mouse, the track pad is heavenly. Ran into some issues with the app store, I was under the impression all apps on iPhone would now run on Macbook, maybe it was user error but even searching iPad and iPhone in the app store yielded no successful results. I was a bit surprised how much I preferred using Google Docs over anything Macbook had to offer stock, but that's a tiny issue really. The battery on this thing is amazing, my 5 hours barely touched it and dropped it maybe 20% if that. I'd imagine you could get a couple of days easily with moderate use before you go looking for a charger. Screen is gorgeous, colors really pop, videos look fantastic on this thing and it gets brighter than the sun. Only real issue with the screen is that it has massive bezels still, but it's not a deal breaking eyesore. Overall, this laptop is a pleasure to use, I look forward to using it. In fact, I can strongly recommend this to anyone looking for a new laptop. Is it worth upgrading if you have something that works just fine? No, the M1 is a game changer indeed but would be a waste of money if you have something relatively new. The only real con of the Macbook Air is the price, but if you're going to hang on to it and treat it right then it's a worthy investment.

    Purchased this MacBook last week and all I can say is that I am not disappointed! I previously had a Lenovo Yoga and the battery was starting to give out so I started looking for something new. I wasn't even planning on looking at getting a Mac just because I always enjoyed a Windows laptop. Decided getting this Mac in the end as you can't beat the new M1 chip and battery life. Performance is out of this world and battery life is amazing! You won't be disappointed if you choose this laptop! I will remind you, if you are going from a Windows to a Mac, it does take a little time adjusting to the differences between the two.

    This is my first apple computer,I’ve had it since 2022 and it still works as if I just bought it. Battery life is good, display is amazing. This works good for any person but as a beginner you’ll love it.

    Replacement MacBook

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

    The 13.3" Gold MacBok Air was ordered to replace a smaller MacBook Air that I had used for many many years...and loved! The older one was finally slowing down, and I knew I wanted to definitely get another Mac. I love this new one, and am using it as I did the other...multiple reasons and on a daily basis. I find it easy to use, and extremely quick to respond. What a great purchase!!

    had bought this laptop in 2021 for my 20th birthday. best purchase ever since! it’s been thru everything with me from downloading movies, working on content editing, to playing video games and storing photos and videos. Unfortunately i had water damage in the laptop this year (my fault 1000%) made the keyboard and touchpad stop functioning. obviously when i took it to apple the price to repair it would be the same as when i bought it so best believe im buying the same one same version i had, it’s literally the best laptop and will last for years (unlike mine lol USER ERROR haha) but for real you need a fast beautiful looking laptop at a good price this model is the one!

    This is my first Mac, and as much as I love my iPhone 13 Pro Max, my M2 iPad Pro and the flawless performance they give me, this Macbook is a hot pile of garbage. It reminds me of my iPad Pro a lot, except it doesn’t have half the practical speed or stability. The OS is a pleasure at first because of being so reminiscent of iOS, but the constant app crashes and blank unloadable pages take that pleasure and stomp it to death. Yes, I updated it. No, it didn’t help.

    Excellent laptop

    It's not the latest with the M2 chip, but it does everything I'd ever need it to do perfectly for $300 less. Excellent for recording/editing music, an added bonus for me. It has excellent speed and battery life. Because it's a couple of years old, it's been put thru its paces by many people and has proven to be a excellent laptop. Coming from android based products, I find it very easy to use. I have no problem switching between either platform.

    I love my new MacBook Air laptop. It is much nicer than the old laptop I was using. It was a great price and it was delivered in excellent condition. The laptop is quiet and so easy to use. Having the M1 chip, it is much faster and has more memory than my old MacBook Air. I enjoy working on this computer everyday. This was definitely a smart purchase.

    This product is a big upgrade from the 2018 model! My old model would always overheat and slow down even from normal browsing on the web! This MacBook is very impressive. It never heats up what so ever. It can even do hardcore gaming for a long time and it will never heat up. It is also blazing fast. Worth the upgrade if you have an intel macbook. The battery life is also amazing. It can last almost 3 days without charging it.

    I find that Apple products are just easier to use. In contrast with Android or windows devices, Apple products ranging from the IPhone to this Mac Air Notebook consistently demonstrate simplicity without sacrificing quality. The MacBook Air is a fast, sleek machine and talk about dead silent. Though not “feather lite” the aluminum casing is outstanding. No issues so far with this system. I will say though, there is a bit of a learning curve if you are switching from a windows device but it’s well worth it.
