    As an upgrade from a 2016 MacBook Air, this is fantastic. The screen is beautiful, the sound quality is 10x better, and the speed is 20x. We compared the speed and response time of this new MacBook Air to a MacBook Pro i7, and it was faster in many tasks. Now everyone in the family wants one. For $750 with no tax (purchased during tax free weekend), it was a fantastic deal.

    I mean. It’s an iPhone, but bigger. I love how fast and sleek it is. Perfect size, not to big and not to small. I really love the fingerprint on the Mac. Just buy it! You will not regret it. Make sure you use protection, and get a case. The battery life is AMAZING. I charge it maybe every 3 days, and I am a college student, so I am on it frequently. Enjoy !!

    My first ever apple computer. The air handles everything I throw at it. to be fair isnt anything crazy but doesnt slow or stutter. We're talking editing youtube videos, heavy web searching ( many windows open ) , bill pay, and general media like netflix or hbo max. Battery life is truly amazing. I can get over 8 hours with med to heavy use.

    This is my third MacBook Air, and it is the third one I am getting from Best Buy. I use this laptop for travel and it is a sturdy and reliable computer that has all of the things that make a Mac a Mac. The new display is astounding in clarity and color depth. The addition of fingerprint locking is a real plus. Add to that Best Buy service and this is the laptop you need.

    Purchased for my son going into high school. This is perfect, easy to use, very lightweight for his backpack. Apple computers are second to none for security and quality, I’ve had a MacBook for 5 years with zero issues. Very happy with purchase.

    For the money, this is one of the best quality computers you can buy. It just works, is wicked fast (like faster than many gaming laptops fast), and is solidly built. The screen is high quality, and I can’t think of a more iconic student computer than a MacBook. This MacBook Air version just happened to be the best value for the money in an Apple product in a long time.

    I was disappointed Apple went with USB-C instead of the Magsafe. Not compatible with my other devices. There was a yellowish hue on the screen and it took several days to figure out how to alleviate it. I had problems with the brightness...had to keep keep adjusting anytime I closed the computer. I have a 2017 Air which is a better design but needs new battery and gets hot. All in all, I was not a fan of this model so I returned it. I might try the new model down the line which hasn't come out yet. Meanwhile, just depend on my iPad.

    Love this new MacBook Air! I was on a MacBook Pro previously and the transition was so easy!! It kept all my pictures, passwords and files as well as all my settings when logged in and set up with my Apple ID. This slim new design makes is easy to work anywhere! The picture quality and speed are just what I need for college courses and at home bill pay. Thanks again Apple!
