    Very quick. I’ve always purchased cheaper laptops that have been on the slower side and this far out-performs them. I just use it for basic tasks.

    Best Laptop I have owned. Resolution, speed, and battery life are outstanding. But this you have come to respect from Apple. The 799 sale price prior to Christmas wasn't a bad deal either. You will not be disappointed in this product for likely years to come.

    i bought my first Apple product 15 years ago, and have been a solid fan ever since, but this MacBook Air tops my experience and enthusiasm for the brand. This is a mind blowing computer, with its speed, its incredible battery life. Amazing product. Recommend this Air without a single reservation !!

    I'm a iMac guy but needed something portable. I purchased this before trips to Atlanta and Vegas for work. I was astounded that a macbook air can render after effects compositions. I can't imagine what the M2 is capable of for it's size.

    I love it, it’s fast with a sleek and elegant look. I must say it took me a couple days to learn how to work all of its features. First macbook ever and honestly it was worth the hype and the price. I’m an Apple girl, and I’m glad I added this new addition to my Apple family

    I purchased this laptop for my daughter for school and she absolutely loves it. Her last room was dropped in water and pretty much destroyed. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise this thing is lightning fast and handles everything any highschooler could possibly throw at it!

    M1 MacBook Air is one of the best laptops ever made. Battery life is fantastic and even without fans it handles more than anything else close to its size and price.

    My MacBook Air was extremely easy to pick up! I walked right in, went to the desk, and they had everything ready. There was no damage to the box or the device. The service was fast and great! The actual computer is amazing, I have had it for 2 years now and works exactly the same as when I first got it.

    I never owned an Apple laptop before. Things I like: light weight, GREAT battery life, coordination with my phone. We’ll built- you can see the quality. Things I’m not too keen on: different than pc’s opera rating system- takes some getting used to. Not being able to use Excel, Word etc unless you download the programs for Mac. Some things like resizing pictures and cutting and pasting, although it’s something I’ll probably get used to. All in all I’m happy so far- takes some getting used to but will work out in time.

    Fingerprints all over the Non touch screen.

    I keep trying the OSX envirnonment. The one thing that sends me back to MS? I am addicted to a touch screen. I tried for six months. I kept using my iPad or Windows 2 in 1. Finally took a bath and traded this in. Not because of it's OS, not because it was too fast. Not because the speakers were plenty good and loud. The screen was great, maybe a bit too bright for me at it's highest setting. Oh and the battery life. Come on man! 14 plus hours? Who needs that much battery life? I gave up all this, over a touch screen? Yup, pretty much. Apple has a problem with competition. They are a bit self hating. They wont put OSX on their new M1 iPad pro. So as not to eat away at their MacBook sales. They won't put a touch screen on their MB Air....well, you get the point. So, Surface Pro 8 with an i7 16 gig set up will have to do. If I could only recall where I put my screen cleaning cloth.

    Remarkable improvement from intel. Sure, there are incompatibility issues but those will go away with time and aren't a big deal because of how well the air runs those apps in emulation. The battery, no noise and very little heat more than make up for the short term program compatibility issues.

    I finally switched over all of my android products to Apple products. It took me a while to give in, but I needed to for school purposes. It has honestly been the best decision. This computer has to be the 5th laptop I've owned and it has worked the best. I have no complaints. I rarely have to charge it, and I use my computer more than any other electronic. It runs fast and I have had no glitches. I bought this MacBook about a year ago now.

    I don't tend to use Apple products outside of Apple TV and iPad Pros. I have had MacBooks provided by my employers in the past so I'm at least able to navigate MacOS OK, but I wanted something to really experiment with without worrying about ruining company equipment. I'm used to using heavier gaming laptops with larger screens, so this feels almost like a toy. It's incredibly light, has what I would consider insane battery life and is... fine. I've been looking around for apps or uses that Macs are outstanding at (and yes, I realize it's an Air and not a Pro) but so far the only application I've used where it noticeable outperforms any of my Windows laptops is with Ableton Live 11. There is no noticeable lag using my MIDI keyboards and controllers, where with my Windows laptops it's not possible to record live without turning off the speakers because the lag is so bad. The interoperability with my iPad Pro is pretty impressive. I haven't really dug into what's possible yet, but have used my iPad as a second display and the setup is simple and seamless. I'm still trying to dig into use cases for this MacBook vs my windows laptops and there aren't many. It's not capable of being a primary gaming system, though it can easily handle some of the less intensive Mac-compatible games I have on Steam. I may be using it as my primary music recording/producing system going forward, though. And it's so light and capable enough that I can easily see using this first when I go on vacation or just want a laptop with me to use at a cafe or wherever. I suspect my initial rating may change with more use and my limited experience with Macs in general makes it difficult for me to evaluate the M1 chip. Bottom line, I'd say if portability is your highest priority and you don't need high performance for gaming or intensive creative work, it's pretty decent. Though you could probably get by with a Windows laptop for half the price for general computing.
