Customer Ratings & Reviews

This machine gets so many things right that I sold my Early 2020 Macbook Air with higher specs and bought this one for the same price I sold that one for and this blew it away. The battery life and power of this machine are really unreal for the price and it has all of the specs that you would like from a machine of its price including 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. There are no upgrades needed for the average user. Even with the M2 Macbook Air now out, this still seems to be the better buy unless you need the ports or the extra screen real estate. The one negative of this device is that it can only drive one external display natively. You can get around this using a Displaylink dock but it is still a bummer. The webcam is also subpar but the mic and speakers are both good.

I am in love with my Mac purchase. The quality of the product exceeds my expectation. The battery life, speed, and screen quality is superb.

I’ve been using this laptop for both my work-from-home job and personal use, and it has truly proven to be an invaluable tool. Whether I’m crunching through emails, attending virtual meetings, or unwinding with some entertainment, this laptop handles it all seamlessly.

I use it for university i have had no problems its fast and easy

FAST LOAD, OPERATES LIKE ALL APPLE PRODUCTS. LIGHT WEIGHT AND EASY TO CARRY AROUND. HOLDS A BATTERY CHARGE LONGER THAN THE OLD LAPTOP. SLIM LINE AFFECT MAKES EASY TO HANDLE.

The features are good , the size is perfect . Not really light weight , the system processor is good which is why i purchased mostly

The new Apple chip is fast, really fast. If you live in the Apple ecosystem, this laptop with the Big Sur OS is tremendous. Integrates with everything else so well. Beautiful display, and the gold color is nice (not a bad perk). Being the Air, it’s very light as well. Great for the price.

Replaced my 2014 MacBook Air with this model. I had considered the M2 version. Apple salesperson had said the faster speed and higher resolution offered on the M2 was likely not noticeable to average user. That does seem to be the case. This one is fast and resolution is clear for my daily use. The only downside is it does not have the MagSafe power connector which the M2 does. I took a star off for that.

Having used many Windows and Apple machines and being a general overall nerd I wanted to buy this and check out the efficiency and performance of the M1 chip. It's great. Chugs great in every day tasks. No fan with excellent battery life. No limitations with 8GB RAM.

I love my MacBook Air, it's efficient and perfect for someone who types a lot for class. It's lightweight yet powerful.

The best laptop at this price. Superb performance and battery life. The person who attended me at the Best Buy Shop explained me well

I you have apple products or a home office and have to work around the world this is a great travel companion! It performs as supposed and better than my 1200 dollars Hp.

Best affordable laptop I have ever bought!!! I would argue this purchase is better then any other higher end laptops I’ve purchased. Light, fast, and good for day to day use. Gaming is alright, not great but that’s expected with the specs you are getting

Best for the bucks. M1 is actually more powerful than I thought. And it looks really good.

The new MacBook Air do not have USB options so I cannot use my external hard drives. I tried to check if I could buy an adaptor but got no answer, will try again. The new MacBook Air automatically defaulted Desktop and Documents to iCloud (making it required for me to add iCloud contract to hold more data - more expensive). I tried to check how to bring all that to my hard drive but was told yes but I had to call another number. Will pursue that but I wish it had not defaulted without telling me. Other than that, the laptop is good.

My MacBook Air was pushing 7 years old and starting to break down, so I had to buy a replacement fast. I was thrilled to find the exact same model as my last one at BestBuy for such a great price! From the time I ordered to the time I got everything set up, it only took a few hours to get back up and running for work. I've had the computer about a month now and it's awesome so far. I honestly couldn't imagine why anyone would pay more for a different MacBook. This one is solid.

Works great! Have had this and the pro and did not notice any difference in performance.

I used different computers before but mac is the best No connection issue it is very fast and i do not need to close all the tabs. Highly recommend it.

Much faster than previous version. I'm working on my P.hD in molecular chemistry and now I can run my simulations on my laptop.

I love this computer. It’s everything I was looking for. It’s light, runs great and it’s a great value for your money. I was debating between MacBook Pro or Air, and decided on the latter for the price. It did not disappoint. MacBook Air is a great buy for students.
