Customer Ratings & Reviews

Fast! love this laptop. Does everything I want it to. Light and powerful, would highly recommend.

If it was full price for a 2020 model, with 8gb of ram, and a 256 SSD, this laptop wouldn't have been in consideration in my search. Best Buy had a great deal on it a month ago. I am already in the "Apple Eco-System" so toggling things between my iPad, phone, and MacBook is seamless and fast, just convenience. The 8gb of ram sounds like a joke in 2023 but if you're just doing some basic tasks, ie; a few safari tabs, notes open, test taking, etc, its not going to slow down, its enough since the OS is great at being efficient with that kind of stuff. The soldered on SSD was also concerning but again if you're not a power user downloading a lot of large files I'm sure it'll last a long time. The battery life is great, I have no issue getting a few days out of it. Build quality is also the greatest I have felt personally and while the keyboard is different that anything I've used in the past (mechanical, brown switches) after a month of use I started to like it a lot. Some other small things I've noticed, its VERY thin, not too heavy in a backpack, speakers are loud and sound great, the screen gets fairly bright and is nice to look at, trackpad hasn't been an issue when using different gestures, touch ID hasnt failed me yet, webcam quality and mic are average. If you can get a deal on it and if you're a casual user like myself, I would recommend it all day. I'm in flight school just using it for basic tasks and it does everything that I need it too very well. The only gripe I've had is the 2 USB-C ports, I guess its something you sacrifice with the form factor. Personally I would've given up a few millimeters of its profile and thinness to get some more ports and ease of use. Keep in mind one is used for charging so you only have 1 open port if that time comes.

Love this computer! It is perfect for all the writing I do for my job.

I haven’t used a Mac in a long time, so this was a breath of fresh MacBook Air. I use this primarily for 3d printing and this thing is amazing. I will never go back to a pc. Beautiful screen, Touch ID is super fast, programs run flawlessly, battery life is superb. I will cherish this impulse purchase with 0 buyer’s remorse. Go get one!

Excellent machine for a college student. Got this for my undergrad daughter and it performs more than great for her. She uses it for classes, editing papers, following along during lectures, etc. It easily syncs with her iPhone. Don't need more than this unless doing heavy video editing or gaming.

So light. So fast. So clear. Upgraded from a 2010 MacBook Pro and can’t believe the difference!

The laptop was in mint condition when opening it, and the speed is so fast. I had a 2015 Macbook pro that was just getting too slow. The difference in everything about this is so much better, from the screen to the gameplay. Definitely recommend. It is also soooo much easier to carry around.

Excellent features and fast. More battery life and fast processing

I bought this at Best Buy rather then Apple because it was a better deal with the student discount. I love that it has no fan because it's so quiet. The battery life is amazing considering I'm coming from a Dell Inspiron laptop and the battery life only lasted me 3 or 4 hours at most. overall I'm happy with my purchase I won't be doing hard editing or anything like that, just mainly school so this is great for me.

Improved. Faster, lighter, like 256 minimum. Would like more ports. Replaced older pro.

Lightweight, fast processor, and keys are quiet when typing. Overall great purchase.

I was looking for a portable machine with decent power and a long battery life. I'm not an Apple guy; I'm flexible. There are other machines out there with similar specs in some regards: size, power, and battery. There is nothing out there that has all three for this cost. There's a reputation for these being expensive, but that's not the case with my purchase at Best Buy. I am 100% happy with this purchase.

Works great for my almost middle schooler. Lightweight and very user friendly

Best laptop for the money. No need to upgrade for casual users. Very fast and fantastic battery life.

This laptop is great. It was in great condition when I received it. I’ve had it for around 6 months or so now and it still runs as well as it did when I first got it. It also holds charge for quite a while.

I highly recommend the Apple MacBook Air! It is a great laptop that is easy to use and pairs perfectly with your other Apple products. The laptop operates quickly and the battery life lasts for a long time. If you are a college student who wants to have a high quality product that is reliable, then this product is a great option for you.

Bought it for my son for school. It’s compact, lightweight, and has a long battery life.

First ever Mac book and it’s great battery last a long time, I’ve had no trouble so far and I only really use it for college this laptop is very good quality. Only con is it is not touch screen which I would be nice to include for the price but overall great laptop.

Apple's M1 chips are blazing fast, no need to even upgrade to their M2 or M3 just yet. Works great for my developer workflow and got up and running in minutes.

The MacBook works great. Super fast and sleek. Won’t ever switch away from Apple.
