    Macbook Air M1 is best laptop even in late 2023

    The laptop was released late 2020 and 3 years later this is till the best laptop money can buy for 750$. Highly performant and power efficient . I design CPUs and can say that this M1 was one of the best in class mobile CPUs we have seen in past 10 years. M2 M3 are all iterations. I did notice that M2 Macbook air did trend for 899$ during thanksgiving and would be a better choice if you use your laptop a lot , but if your major activities are browsing and content consumption, email this one is for you. I think of this laptop lasting easily for 6 years if not more. If you are in college and want an affordable laptop you would not go wrong with this one but I would suggest you go with the M2 as it has a better design and front camera which can come handy with facetime calls and you would not feel that peers have a laptop that matches current design trend. So if you are in college and can spend that extra 150-200$ go for the m2. The 256GB of storage is fine for me , In this day and age storing photos in google photos. Overall a great laptop.

Just FYI. Great product!! 100% recommended!

    I have put off buying a macbook for years and I wish I had done it forever ago. It's so light, so fast and so pretty. I've had macbooks for work before so I know this will last a good long time. Highly recommend. Of course if apple made the screen touchscreen it would be perfect.

    Great computer for someone with lite computing needs. It has a great battery life, great for pick up and go moments without the heft of a normal laptop. It’s perfect for surfing the web, catching up on the latest shows on Netflix or AppleTV. Perfect for taking a couple notes, and easy to learn to use for first time apple user or first time laptop users.

    I bought this just because I needed a newer laptop & im so happy with it. Probably the most expensive thing I’ve ever purchased for myself but well worth it. Super fast, love the finger print option to unlock It, makes things so much easier & also love the color gold!! It looks more like a rose gold in person which I love even more! There’s so many features on here & I just know this laptop will last me years which is really nice!

    Best laptop at $1000! Even more worth it for $810

    The M1 chip made this MacBook Air really powerful, it’s the best laptop at this price point. I got an open box excellent excellent certified condition for $810. It was basically brand new with no signs of use, besides the packaging being opened. There was only 2 charge cycles , which proves it wasn’t really used that much. It’s worth a try to buy open box, since you can always return it if it’s not up to your standards.

    WORKS VERY WELL I love my Macbook. I’ve had numerous Windows PCs and laptops, I’ve also been a heavy Linux laptop and PC user, and I use Linux+Unix professionally at work all day long, as well as using Windows in my job. I’ve been a programmer for > 30 years, so lots of exposure to computers. The aesthetic of the Mac is just different — more polished and smooth, it has a unity of design that crosses over between software and hardware and appearance — the way that things are worked out with fine attention to detail so that the device doesn’t get in your way, but allows you to blend with the work… it’s difficult to break that down into individual lists of features. Any of these 3 operating systems can be laid down on high-quality hardware and will get most of the same jobs done. But the Macbook is like driving a well-polished sports car, while anything that isn’t a Mac shows its rivets and screwheads to the driver. Not bad, and you can get by like that for years without missing anything, but when you make friends with the Mac you just don’t want to go back.

    I was very hesitant to drop $900 on a new laptop, but I’ve always had a good experience with Apple so I decided to go for it. WORTH IT. I’m a writer and I love to bring my laptop outside, to the park, or to various spaces around the house. The MacBook Air is so lightweight it’s unbelievable and the battery life is insane. I still have my Dell gaming laptop (which I love for gaming specifically) but the Mac totally crushes what I need for work and writing. I’m still blown away at the battery life btw. Incredible.
