    My daughter is using this for college and says it works amazingly well for all her classes and for streaming content. No hangups. No stuttering screens or delays. It’s got great storage and speed.

    Love my new MacBook Air in rose gold. I’ve never owned a MacBook and it is so easy to use and the battery life is incredible. I was even able to get Word. WORD!!! I haven’t had word on any of my devices since I graduated from college in 2013. Dang, it feels good to be able to type a letter not using my email as a spreadsheet. I love, love my new laptop.

    Good battery life, but so coming from 16" mac , it gave me eyestrain which caused migraine. Screen is to small for long use. Only connects to 1 monitor! Battery life is exceptional.

    Bought this MacBook for my daughter who was starting college. She loves it! Performs and works much nicer than the previous laptops we have owned (HP, Dell, Acer). It is small, lightweight and compact. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy a laptop. Perfect for the college student in your life or for your own personal computer.

    The M1 Air is still a great purchase if you're looking for a budget Mac. Plenty powerful for daily work and the battery life is amazing.

    Bought this as a student and it has been great. More than enough for casual web browsing, taking notes, google sheets, etc. Can handle gaming well aside from getting warm from long sessions. Handles AutoCad well. Would recommend especially on sale.

    My Son is very happy with his new laptop. It has all the right stuff on it and works perfect. He says the M1 chip is very impressive and will help him handle his work better. Has so many interesting new features. This one works pretty great and has INCREDIBLE colors! Thank you so much Best Buy.

    Simply awesome! The battery life is insane. The M1 chip is a monster with very fast operating speed. The graphics, screen and sound are a good touch as well with great quality. This is a quality item with great value.

    Absolutely an amazing product! I would recommend it a 100%. I just love how fast it is and how sleek it looks. I’ve always been a Microsoft gal but I’ve learn how to use MS office on my Mac and I though admit the navigation keys are a little different than Microsoft, but once you understand it, it’s a piece of cake and I now wonder why I have not switched until now.

    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.

    Truly Incredible Computer

    Incredible computer. Bought it the day the new MBPs were announced because I wanted to give it a try since I was coming from a 2012 MBP and just wow. I see why the M1 chips received such rave reviews. I returned this because I need more storage, but even before I knew I was getting a 1TB version, I thought I'd go back to my 2012 MBP, ha!

    Great! Only downside is the fact that the default storage options are so limiting unless you utilize cloud storage systems. The battery life is great, but less than MacBook Pro, so you have to pick your battles. But for $750 with the student discount, the value is incredible!

    When it came time to replace my old laptop, I decided to finally go for a MacBook Air. I truly love this thing - lightweight, very fast, and stays cool even though it's fan-less. I use this mostly for writing, listening to music, and browsing, although I've had great luck playing some games on it as well (though I haven't tried anything too intense).

    Best All-Around Laptop

    The M1 MacBook Air is by far the best laptop I’ve ever owned. The display is sharp, the keyboard is a pleasure to type on, opening apps and browsing the web is fast, and has the longest battery life I’ve ever experienced on any MacBook, or Apple product for that matter. Was able to get this specific model as an open-box purchase and couldn’t be happier with my decision!

    This laptop replaced a MacBook Pro with battery, keyboard and overheating issues. I love this MacBook Air - lightweight but solid, great keyboard, great battery (holds a charge for a few days), and no overheating! No fan running! Perfect.

    This laptop is amazing. This is my first time switching to Mac OS and I’m impressed. Mac OS could use some improvements that windows has had for years though. Also the performance on this laptop is amazing. You can actually game on this thing and get the same FPS as some “Gaming” laptops. The new M1 chip is amazing and the battery life is also amazing.

    Super Pleased with Laptop Selection

    It's light, beautiful, and the battery is incredible! Got this new laptop for grad school and I am super please with my choice thus far. If there was any complaint, it would be some finickiness with hooking up an external monitor. My guess would be things would be playing nicer if I got an Apple USB C adapter. Alas ... still love this laptop!
