    As a new MacBook user, I recently purchased the MacBook Air with M1 chip, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations! Its processing is fast, the colors are vibrant and the text clear, and the price was great compared to other stores I looked at. It takes work to get used to it compared to PCs, but it is worth it to have an ecosystem that seamlessly allows for me to work across my phone and laptop.

    Best purchase decision. So light and easy to use, even the basic model is so fast now. I’m able to run a lot of chrome tabs, use affinity products, as well as Xcode all a the same time with no issues at all.

    I love this laptop! The base model MacBook Air M1 is a surprisingly capable machine. I run multiple programs on it daily (VS Code, Excel, Word, OneNote, Spotify, Messages, Maps, etc. etc.) and the performance is remarkable. It is also exceptionally quiet and cool. Coming from Windows laptops, I didn't know if 8 GB of RAM would cut it, but I haven't had any issues at all. The hardware is very high quality too - beautiful screen, sturdy build, and a responsive touchpad. Highly recommend it!

    I would give this machine a 5 star GREAT rating if it just had more memory. 8 GB? C'mon man, I need 16GB but that requires a special order from Apple. So, I got what I got and honestly... it is really really GOOD! Fast, light, reliable... awesome!

    As all the reviews I have found in Google and you tube said this is a too class product and amazing performance for the price. We use it to work on Adobe suite of products and it's seriously fast for a product at this cost. Battery life also has been amazing. If you need a solid product with great performance without the need to hook too many external devices then there isn't any laptop better than this for the price.

    We got an incredible deal on this laptop at Best Buy, through an Apple deal along with our student discount. I had been excited to try out Apple's new silicon M1 processor after reading/watching all of the review, and man, they were right, this laptop does not disappoint! We are blown away by the speed of literally everything on this laptop! The screen is magnificent, the keyboard is fantastic, the trackpad is world class, and the battery lasts forever with the super efficient M1 processor. This has to be one of the best deals around for this much horsepower, and it is an Apple machine, go figure! If you are in the Apple ecosphere, this laptop is a no brainer either as a new machine or a replacement.

    This is my first laptop and I didn’t expect it to work so much great because it is the least of the 3 macbook M1 series. But tell you what, this laptop is just amazing. I never experience any lag or any problems after weeks of using it. It looks and feels premium, every aspect of it is just so good. It is very thin and light weight, I can just bring it whenever and wherever I want to go. Overall experience is more that what I expected. Im glad to have used this kind of technology.

    Apple has made something extremely special with this first generation of M1 chips. I don't think we'll see the true potential of what their "M" series chips can accomplish, until we've had a few additional iterations. Regardless, what they've done to this point is straight magical. The Macbook air is a powerhouse of laptop computing. I threw everything at the machine I could think of and it never broke a sweat. Try doing half of what is capable here on a similarly spec Windows machine and watch as it crawls along hoping to stay alive. Battery life is stellar and I get tired of using the computer before it ever reaches the need to be charged. At the end of the day, if you've been on the fence about picking one of these up, just go for it.

    I honestly love this MacBook , I have been using it for almost 3 years now hasn’t failed me once ! The life battery is still at 100% and it lasts for a whole day! Perfect for any student, keeping their notes organize or for a personal computer. It’s so easy to send files between your other Apple devices using airdrop. Never heats up since it doesn’t have a fan due to the M1 chip works perfect compared to the previous Mac Laptops in the past. I think this is still a great update even with the newest M2 Chip.

    This is the perfect laptop for school and small business needs. It is very fast and the battery life is amazing. And if you’re one for not liking the fan noise, well this is perfect because it does not have a fan.

    Great product. The peace of mind you get from not needing anti-virus is totally worth it alone. But I'll never get used to the interface. Switched from Windows and unless you are tech-savvy I wouldn't dare. Trying to find your disk partitions is like trying to do a David Blaine magic trick. Some things make no sense to me but having said that it boots clean every time and the battery life is great. It doesn't have a CPU fan so you won't have to worry about the whizzing sounds constantly while you are trying to meditate. Actually, I've been meditating more often since I made the switch. Again if you aren't technical don't you dare switch from Windows. This interface will make you insane.
