Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had never owned an Apple computer but I love this one. I use it for my cricut projects and it is lightning fast. It is light when taking places and overall I would purchase again. I have not had any issues and I have had it 22 months. Battery life is still great. A full charge last about 4 days with me using it for a couple hours each day then leaving it on and closed. Just bought my first IPad, super excited.

Light, fast and very capable. I have not ever had a Mac laptop before but I am very happy with the performance of the new M1.

Love it!! Beautiful design, super fast, and everything I need in a laptop!

I decided to go budget and went with a basic Macbook Air. To my shock it is an extremely powerful but light & pleasant device. I use a $2K Macbook Pro for work and this thing rivals the speed but is smaller and quieter. I build my own PC's and I am not a huge Apple fan because of the 'Apple Tax' increase in price but this thing is a fantastic performer for a budget price. The M1 chip is fantastic.

Apart from being incredibly slim and beautiful, this laptop is also incredibly lightweight, specially compared to the dinosaur I just came from being the MacBook Pro from like 2010. I got the basic seeing as I didn't need to do anything crazy on it, and it over performs on anything I've needed so far. Battery life is incredible as well when not plugged in, and charges other devices quickly. Totally recommend

This little guy... Wow.. Battery life is out-of-this world. Great screen, better keyboard than a couple of generations ago. Stupid fast. Don't let the 8GB of ram scare you. The M1 processor uses ram differently than the older Core processors. A lot of your main-stream software is already at least compatible with the M1, with more and more being optimized all the time! Everything I use day-to-day is already optimized and WOW the performance from this entry-level LAPTOP kills my old desktop!!

Not sure I can say more about the MacBook quality and performance that has not already been said. I will add that with the M1 chip there is not much a reason to look at the MacBook Pro beyond any specific requirements you might have. The Pro will serve those who deal with a lot video editing or resource draining applications. But for those who want a good , fast, lightweight ,and powerful laptop, this is it.

I use this computer daily for work and personal things. I've had no issues! I always thought buying a MacBook would be a waste of time and money; however, I was proven wrong. The battery life is great, display is great, it runs fast, everything about it is great. I definitely recommend buying new.

Great buy, as always. It’s light and powerful. Great battery life.

Perfect for my needs. Lightweight and easy to use. I replaced a 2006 MacBook, so this it's nice to have a battery that works again! Got a great price on sale! I mostly use it for email, Facebook and editing files. It's nice to be able to have a lot of tabs open and not have it crash. For my needs, it's perfect!

I've owned the MacBook Air M1 (first gen) for almost a year and I can say without a doubt this is THE best laptop I have ever used. Honestly, I'm hesitant to even call it a laptop as it feels more like a work of art or a magical artifact. Let's take a closer look: Design? Breathtaking. Battery? Outstanding. Display? Gorgeous. Performance? Out of this world. Do yourself the favor and buy yourself this work of art. You won't regret it.

I purchased the MacBook Air 13.3" Laptop - Apple M1 chip to upgrade from my old PC laptop. I couldn't be more pleased. This MacBook Air is lightning fast and feather light. It has no fans so it doesn't get hot. I love the backlit keyboard. The screen is slightly smaller than my old 15.6" laptop, but it wasn't really that noticeable. I highly recommend this laptop.

Lightweight, fast, powerful, and less expensive than an iPad at the sale price!

Great laptop. I’ve been an MB Air user since 2011. That machine still works. I've used the new one for over 2 years, and it represents the aesthetics, functionality, size, and beauty that made me fall for the original MBA. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of ordering another that only had 256 GB of storage capacity (thinking I had all of the memory I needed with cloud storage), but today, IMO, 256GB is not enough to run the operating system, browse the Internet, and have basic software applications loaded. I highly recommend purchasing a MacBook Air just due to its overall functionality, but in doing so, please get one with enough memory to handle your intended purpose.

I needed a new laptop after my 8 year old MacBook Pro. I decided on a MacBook Air. I had the Geek Squad put my old stuff onto the new one. I love my laptop! It is light and fast and has a good sound. The pictures are bright and clear. I chose the gold colored one which almost looks bronze. Very pretty. And, it was on sale.

Snappy, quiet (no fan), extremely portable, and crazy long battery life! And durable too!!! What more do you want?? Smaller bezel, touchscreen, and better camera? Yes, there are other 13" laptops out there with smaller bezels and touchscreen. But not with this performance and battery life! I'm mad at both Intel and Dell for still playing a catch-up game after a year and a half! We bought our first M1 Air last summer and this is our 2nd one!

First time Mac user; switched from PC. This computer blows away any that I have ever used. It is so ridiculously fast! It hasnt even thought about getting warm ever, even through long movie streaming (binging!) sessions. The battery life is outstanding. So easy to switch to the Apple ecosystem this year. Went from android to iPhone, and now this MacBook Air. Only regret is that I didn’t switch sooner. Got a fantastic deal on a great piece of hardware!

Best mac I have ever owned (and have owned G5 Cheesegrater, mac mini Intel machines, macbook, macbook air (intel)). This thing is really amazing for the price - especially when on sale at $800. I bought open box for $865 early in 2021 and no issues. Just traded into Apple last week for $515! Got great use out of it for two years and trade in value was excellent. Waiting to get the 15" Macbook Air that is supposed to be released June 2023. THAT will be the perfect machine (assuming they don't do something stupid with design/features). This thing runs Windows 11 and Ubuntu 22 faster than a native install on a "windows" PC. Just BLOWS them out of the water and not by a little - the M1 ARM processor is very fast - at many things - so even if don't like MacOS - just buy Paralles virtualzation software and a Windows license. Done and Done. For what you pay/get you can't do better for general use machine. Battery life ridiculous - lasts for whole day of use no problem. One benefit of buying this older machine is Apple designed these with 2 SSDs (effecivetly a RAID configuration) which is twice as fast as the M2 machines (unless you get the upgraded storage). So, buying the base model still nets you performance gains you won't get on an M2 based machine.

I underestimated how powerful, light, and versatile these machines are. For everyday computing, this is hands-down the best laptop on the market, even with the newer models out. TODAY - more than two years after it's initial release, I WOULD BUY ANOTHER M1 Macbook Air IF given the choice. The M1 is fast, it has excellent battery life, good speakers, and connectivity via hub/docking station turn it into a powerhouse.

I am a college student and was looking to get my first ever laptop. I've always used Windows OS but after using MacOS, I can't believe I was missing it the entire time. The optimization, simplistic UI, and you simply can't overlook the speed of M1 chip in this thing. On top of that, you will get a 2560x1600 resolution which I must say, is "crisp". I prefer Air because of it's size, portability, and battery can suffice for more than a day's work. 10/10 recommend it ;)
