    Thin, light, fast; it's a superb machine. If you're not editing videos from a drone then the additional ports provided by the Macbook Pro aren't necessary so you can save money by going with the Air. As a programmer I'm concerned with 8GB's being too low for memory and burning out the hard drive. However, as a student without the necessary skills to run XCode, simulators, emulators, multiple K8s clusters, and the various services for my startup I think this machine is more than enough to cover highschool and parts of college(if not all).

    So I have once had a 2013 MacBook PRO that I aaaabsolutey LOVED!! So, I need to upgrade and I am someone who loves reading reviews about products doing my research, you know, the “adult thing” to do… So you know you’re not wasting your money lol no I’ve put my trust into thousands of strangers and took their advice and purchased this MacBook Air for myself as well as for my 14-year-old (which it’s basically hers anyway lol) and we both really are madly in love with it it’s great. Yes, I am really used to the 16 inch screen size, but it’s OK because this actually my daughter’s EARLY Christmas present (muhahaha), but she DOES love it!! As do I!! I use it at night school (Cosmetology) which makes the 13.3 size actually kinda better than a big MacBook, it’s so light to carry…I don’t, I may just keep this one for myself ;-) haha Just Kidding!! But it was DEFINITELY A GRRRRREAT BUY!!

    I’ve had this Macbook for a couple months to give my most honest review. So far the battery life is AMAZING! I can leave it alone for a couple days and the percentage is either full or at minimum 70-80 percent. I’m a college student so I use it very often and the battery life is still pretty good. The display is okay in some ways. Adding a wallpaper can be a bit annoying when it comes out blurry. Other than that the display is good. My overall rating of the Macbook would be a 9/10.

    I am extremely satisfied with the M1 MacBook Air. I had initially decided to purchase the M1 MacBook Air for school use only, but it has become my "daily driver" and I now use it in the business setting as well. The M1 MacBook Air was ready to go out of the box with about 70% charge in the battery. The battery life is amazing, and I get around 14 hours of power with constant use, multiple applications running and multiple safari tabs open at the same time. The M1 MacBook Air doesn't get hot despite not having an internal cooling mechanism like a fan which I appreciate because I don't have to listen to a fan whirring while trying to concentrate on work or study. The internal speakers are actually decent and the audio that is output has a rich, full bodied sound. The Retina display does a great job at projecting clear, crisp image and consuming content via YouTube, AppleTV, etc. is very enjoyable. If you're on the fence about purchasing the M1 MacBook Air like I was, you should definitely give it a shot and you may be pleasantly surprised with all the features you get for the price.

    I’ve been an Apple user for well over 15 years. This MacBook Air does not disappoint. The perfect size and functionality for school and to run my small business. I definitely plan to purchase another one for my daughter. Love that I can go two days without plugging it in, which makes it easy to transport when I want to work in coffee shop for the day. Great battery life means I don’t have to take the plug.

    I have had this product for months now and I love it. For me I think it helps as a college student as well as an apple user. It is very efficient because you are able to connect your devices and work with lots of storage space. While this laptop is great I dislike the fact that there are only usb c ports in the side of the laptop. I have to be specific with the cords O buy for my laptop. I would have preferred if there were a variety of usb ports.

    Amazing computer. Dead silent, fast loading, amazing resolution and great for any small business ventures. I'm very happy with this purchase as a whole. One down side is only having 3 ports on the computer, 2 usb-c and 1 headphone. So to use an sd card, or a USB you have to spend another $110 in adapters. But that's just Apple in general haha.

    Dont waste your money on cheap laptops like me

    I love this laptop bought it on 5/23 and I was debating whether I should buy a mac or another windows computer... I owned multiple HP pavilion's that were cheaper of course because at the time I couldn't justify spending over $500 for a laptop in the past. all of them turned to garbage after the first year so after buying 4 of them and wasting my money when I could have taken the money I spent on them and bought a macbook I learned my lesson and decided to buy a mac instead and so far it has been one of the best decisions I made I love this laptop and am hoping for it to run good for a couple of years like the reviews said instead of it turning into garbage after 1 year like those hp laptops

    I recently had a intel MacBook Pro prior to this and I got to say performance is night and day to the intel model. Battery life is excellent, Mac OS Big Sur runs really well, hardware is familiar but the chip makes everything faster and well balanced. For anyone looking for a new MacBook this and the M1 Air will not disappoint!!!

    Love the Mac. First time owning one still learning. Only thing I wish it had touch screen. The battery life on it is everything. Light weight and user friendly. I won’t ever switch back to a laptop. Whatever I can’t figure out I find it online and apple support is everything on point. Loving it.

    It's a great laptop. The M1 chip lives up to its potential. The battery lasts all day without having to recharge. I've also used it for light gaming and it has not gotten even a tab bit warm. Great performance for such a small laptop.

    Replaced my 10-year-old MacBook Air & I am so happy. The new one has many improvements, for example in the grammar & spelling corrections. Speed is greatly improved. Unfortunately the USB port is different so I had to buy an adapter to look at any old flash drives. Not sure why they did that, but since it’s Apple, I’m sure there was a good reason.

    I needed to upgrade so I opted for this model. It’s fast and reliable. The battery lasts all day. I can charge multiple items and watch videos without having to use the usb cord. I’m excited to do future projects on it.
