Customer Ratings & Reviews

I wish I would have gone to Mac years ago! After a few years my old laptops would get bogged down with the antivirus software...painfully slow in starting up...we've all been there! Not anymore. Apple has its own security features...bye bye Norton. Lightning fast, small and compact, perfect for at home or travel. This would be ideal for traveling students as well, super light.

I've had other Macs in the past, but more recently have suffered through several PC laptops. This laptop is a breath of fresh air. To me, macOS is better designed and more consistent than Windows these days. Build quality is fabulous and the screen is bright and crisp. The M1 chip is fast, and battery life is stellar. Nits are minor: the design and bezels look a tad on the old side, I miss a touch screen, and the web cam is average at best. Given the much higher price of the M2 Air, though, and the sale price of this device ($799, thanks, BB!), purchasing this was a no-brainer for me. Highly recommended!

I’m a Mac girl for life. I use them until I can’t anymore. I absolutely love this computer. It’s fast and beautiful. I use it only for school and for browsing and it hasn’t let me down. It’s the perfect size and weight too.

I have an M1 MacMini and bought this M1 MacBook Air to use on the road/traveling. The Air is slim and has the same snappy performance as the Mini. Both are great. With no fan and a solid-state drive, it's ideal as a traveling computer. I highly recommend it. Also, the lower price of the Air and its similar performance made it simple for me to buy it rather than the MacBook Pro.

This MacBook product is light weight and easy to transport on the go. Great speed and battery life.

I love this laptop. It’s fast and small and my best computer ever

I love Best Buy, for being very patient with me in my purchase decision. After a lot of research I decided go to M1 MacBook Pro. Laptop nowadays with reasonable settings are getting so expensive that financially for me made more sense going to a brand that have a good reputation just adding a little more. The machine is fast, display outstanding, battery lasts forever. Very happy with the purchase.

One of the best computers for school and I loved the color! The customer service was also so nice and fast as I placed the order online and just picked it up!

The Apple M1 chip's speed and efficiency are nothing short of astounding, handling any task effortlessly. The Retina display delivers sharp visuals with vibrant colors, enhancing the overall viewing experience.Exceptional battery life.

Bought this solely for the inevitable return to campus for college. Even despite that the M1 does work quite well as a regular laptop despite the limited ports available. Touch ID is quick and responsive just as it was on older iPhones, and the battery life is second only to the M1 MacBook Pro. I have only used it so far for writing papers and for streaming and out of the box it went from 80% to roughly 75% after 3 hours. Even on standby mode it sips power and I have yet to plug it in to fully charge as it is that well optimized for battery life. At $800 for an ultrabook its a great price to pick up as it easily can beat others in the same price range. at normal MSRP of $999 you may want to see how well it might work for you but is still a solid contender.

I've been using this laptop for about 2 weeks now, and it's been reliable and very, very fast. All the features that have been implemented are really nice to have, such as opening the lid and having it promptly up and running. I never thought it would make any difference for my use, but it does. Also, it's very fast for almost all the tasks that I've thrown at it. I often do light work, such as web browsing, Word and Excel and some video editing for my child videos and some work videos as well, and even using Adobe Premiere Pro, which's not optimized for it yet, runs very smoothly, with one or two glitches here and there. I've used a MacBook Pro 13 from 2014 and 2018, and then migrated to a Razer Blade 15 2019, but none of them were as good as this simple 8 Gb and 256 Gb SSD MacBook Air (except for gaming, of course). The keyboard is excellent and much better than the old version butterfly mechanism ones, which started failing on me after 2 months on my old Pro 13. The screen is alright, not the best looking ones with these bezels. And build quality, well... Expect an Apple product build quality, so, it's pretty good for its class and price. I'm thinking of buying another one with more RAM and SSD storage, and keeping this one for my wife, but, truly, I'm already very satisfied with this one. If you own a MacBook Air or even a MacBook Pro 13 with the low end specs and if you're thinking of upgrading, this is definitely a buy, again, with some more SSD storage.

Love MacBook Air! Have had two MacBooks that lasted me about 7 or 8 years a piece. Only wanted to upgrade. Love the display and laptop is super light. Works with my iPhone and Apple Watch. Really fast system and super quiet.

This MacBook is amazing. So fast and compact. Great overall.

Super fast computer. Very light. Superb design. It feels like a well built and well designed device. Apple leaves nothing to compromise.....it is the Mercedes of laptops. I wish it had a touch screen, but the iPad works pretty well for that! I've used many computers, but since 1984, my favorite has been the Mac. It is just an better experience all around.

Awesome laptop, The Gold Mac-book air didn't fail my expectations. This is like hitting Jackpot. I mean given the best decent computers today, the MacBook Air is the lightest, with an M1 system on a chip meaning, the CPU, RAM, GPU, and other chip components are on a single piece of silicon. I love the solid-state drives (SSDs) for file storage. They’re faster than hard drives,

Awesome! Fast, quiet, super lightweight, and cute pink rose color.

I recently picked up the MacBook Air 13.3 from Best Buy, and it's been an absolute game-changer. Apple's sleek design, a stunning Retina display, and the M1 chip's power make it a powerhouse. Plus, the battery life is off the charts, and the keyboard/trackpad combo is a joy to use. It's the complete package for anyone who wants the best in a laptop, even if the port selection is a tad limited. In short, the MacBook Air 13.3 is a winner and a testament to Apple's enduring excellence.

We bought this for my Mother and my Aunt. They aren't very computer savvy and we all agreed an apple laptop would be better for their needs and easier for them to use and navigate over windows. Once we got them set up, its been a pleasant and comfy experience. The M1 chip is very powerful and it stays pretty quiet most of the time. They are very happy with their purchase.

apple did not fail to impress me with this mac. the exterior is smooth and modern like and overall looks great. the gold looks like a rose gold fyi, no complaints tho. the sound quality is amazing and the speed is extremely fast. so happy with this purchase!

I was hesitant at first due to new technology. However I decided to go all in on the base model and I am extremely happy I did. The machine wakes up super fast and does not heat up as much as my previous apple MacBook Pro with intel chip. This m1 chip is a winner it does not get as hot as the intel chip and the battery life is off the chart. I look forward to putting t through its paces. Joe
