    I was transitioning to this machine from a 17" screen and I thought I was going to miss the bigger screen - I don't! this is so light and fast and COOL! the M2 chip is really cool and it doesn't overheat. I can put this in my handbag and carry it around. It's lighter than my kindle! Battery lasts for days, too.

    The M1 chip still holds up for almost all my college tasks. It's been a month since I owned it and I've had no problems with this product. The packaging was top-notch and BestBuy delivered it within a day of purchase. Go get it if you're looking for a back-to-school laptop that is value for money!

    I have been using an Air from 2012 and this was my first upgrade after that. Much has changed in terms of looks. The Gold version is super looking and more compact that the previous air. definitely miss the space for rest your hands while tying but is more compact and easier to carry. Functionality is amazing and super smooth while using

    The Perfect MacBook

    I upgraded to this device from a 2015 MacBook Air. I am so glad I did! The M1 chip truly is a game changer for Apple. Lightning fast and can handle so much. This MacBook has the best keyboard and trackpad I have ever used on a Mac device. I also like that I can download apps and such. Battery life is out of this world amazing. I love that it wakes up immediately upon opening the lid. My only gripe is that I wish that there were more ports on it. Only 2 USB-C ports (one of which you have to use to power the device) is very short-sighted. This can be fixed with a hub, but that is also another expense). One small annoyance is the lack of being able to upgrade the RAM, but 8GB is more than enough for my needs. For those who like to slam "gold" or "rose gold", I used to be one of you. However, this color was the only option available, and I must say...it is quite beautiful to look at.

    Amazing, couple of caveats

    Overall I love it with a couple of caveats. Got the 8gb ram basic version. Was surprised when it running slower than my previous computer (hp specter 2018 16gb ram). Opening a bunch of tabs on safari slowed it down. Secondly, being used to 15in and going down to 13 inch felt like a bit of a downgrade, and my old laptop just had amazing picture quality, 4K, and wide color gamut. Somewhat wish I waited for the 14in MacBook pros. Overall, I’m really happy, wanted a Mac because I have an iPhone and have been impressed by how easily everything syncs up. Have been wanting to experience apple ecosystem for a while and it didn’t disappoint. Also, it’s ridiculously small and light, battery life is amazing.

    Hands down, best laptop I have ever purchased. Very fast. Very clean as far as design. Screen gets very bright. The M1 Chip is like butter. Could not ask for a better piece of tech. I highly recommend the Air over the Pro only if you are a casual user and are not gaming, editing, or rendering photos/videos.

    This beautiful Apple computer is sleek, elegant and fast. Very easy to use, and it has excellent color and sound. This is the best computer that I have owned. You can give voice commands which makes for efficiency and ease in communication. Price is good too! It’s top rated and that got me on board immediately. You won’t regret this purchase!

    Best value macbook ever

    Upgraded from 2015 MacBook Pro that was slowing down on me. Was a bit hesitant due to lack of ports but honestly has not been an issue. If you do use a flash drive often, then can simply use a port hub. The battery life is insane. It can last a week week on a single charge with light usage (1-2 hours/day), still holds up 2-3 days with more extended use. The new M1 chip is the best thing apple has ever done after inventing iphone. It can handle intense multitasking with multiple browser windows full of youtube vids, as well as editing with Finalcut Pro. Render times are very fast and does not slow down other tasks. At the time of purchase it was on sale for $800 with student pricing. The next week it was $750. For the price I paid I am extremely satisfied. Would recommend it when it's on sale again to anyone and everyone. Maybe not for hardcore video editing or programming, but will fit the needs of the other 95%.

    Amazing machine. From the weight to the speed, and then the battery life. Got this for my wife as Christmas present, and she loved it. I really want it for myself but I will wait until the M2 and then go from there. The fact this base line mac is better then most other machines, especially at this price, shows me that there will be a chip war coming up here soon.

    Apple always knows how to make a gorgeous and sleek product. This item is no exception. I am absolutely amazed at how fast it is, the lack of fan noise, and the responsiveness of the touchpad. No one makes a touchpad as well as Apple. This is a wonderful "light-duty" ultra portable laptop that will meet or exceed most individual's daily needs. If you are in the market for one, you will be more than happy with this purchase. It should be noted that I originally purchased the Rose Gold color, but that was a bit harsh on my eyes. The Space Grey is a much more neutral and desirable tone for me. Never any questions about the return - and in and out within a few moments. I will give credit where credit is due.
