    Speed and usability are amazing. But that battery life is the ticket. I charge it about 1-2 times per week maybe three when doing a lot of photo editing.

    The M1 MacBook Air is fast and light. I haven't found a lot of the apps that I use on the iPod are available in native M1 implementations but some critical ones like Chrome are. Other apps running with Rosetta 2 work well and are fast.

    Blazing Fast even with 8GB of RAM

    I bought this an open box item from BestBuy. This is my first attempt at buying an open box item and I was definitely concerned but was relieved as i was getting full warranty for an item for which i was paying 30% less than the MSRP. I am also hesitant to buy the first gen of any new item. In this case, I made an exception and bought Macbook air which had M1 processor and I was correct in my decision. This macbook is blazing fast and I can have 6-8 tabs open and it still doesnt slow down. I think 8GB RAM is sufficient for my daily use (Streaming, Mail, Surfing, Editing of Docs). I am happy with my purchase.

    absolutely amazing product. apple always knows what they are doing when they make next MacBook. this new processor is leaps and bounds faster than any other previous gen model. I was in the market to replace my MacBook Pro from 2012 since the battery on it was starting to fail and I'm glad I went with this. and I can connect to my iPad Air and use it as a second screen as well as use my AirPods seamlessly between devices with one simple click or tap. I also love the Touch ID to unlock because of how fast and convenient it is. device automatically powers on the second you lift the lid and its ready to go.

    Best MacBook for the money

    [Employee of bestbuy] Best MacBook you can buy for the money while it’s on sale, $799 on the M1 model is an absolute steal, sure the M2 air may be a newer model with MagSafe, and a slightly better display with the M2 being a Liquid Retina display. however a measly 18% increase in power with the M2 chip shouldn’t be enough for you to spend the extra money. The $300 difference is enough to get the 512 GB model of the M1, or Totaltech (which gives you apple care), and any other accessories you’ll need if you really wanted to spend the extra money.

    M1 Chip is not good for development.

    A lot of technology is not available for the M1 chip now. You need to use Rosetta2 with Intel chip technology. If you are not in rush, waiting can be a better option. Super silent, no heat issue, the screen is nice, really fast. Battery life is impressive. If you wanna use development or design, I don't recommend it.

    Extremely fast and light. There has only been one game my kids couldn’t play because it was blocked by Apple “epic games”. It did bog down my conifer. But it could be just us, with too many programs opened.
