Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this for my niece and she is headed off to college. While a generation older as this is the M1 this MacBook should not be overlooked, especially if you're finding it on sale. More than enough for her needs and at a price that doesn't break the bank!

Excellent acquisition. This was a gift for my wife, the laptop is beautiful.

After years of using Windows based laptops, I finally decided to change. The most important reason is that I’m a musician and almost all of the software I use for mixing is Mac based. This was a no-brainer for me. As others have said in reviews, I’m also tired of buying sub par PC based laptops that don’t last. I finally decided to step up and spend some money and I’m glad I did. This laptop blows Windows based pc’s away. The M1 chip makes this laptop the fastest computer I’ve ever owned. No more waiting for the the operating system to go through 5 minutes of starting until you’re able to actually use it. This MacBook starts right up in a matter of seconds and is ready to use. Super fast! I also have an iphone 13 Pro, an IPad Air and an Apple Watch. I love the way they all work in harmony. Hopefully I’ll never have to touch a Windows based machine again. Buy it, you won’t regret it.

This is the perfect laptop for everyday use. The M1 chip is plenty for the vast majority of users for years to come. Unbelievably light and portable, fantastic track pad and a great battery.

I purchased this base model as I am just coming back to Mac OS after several years to re-learn the operating system. This MacBook Air is well built. In addition, it is very fast for my day to day tasks. It also has excellent battery life. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a first Mac. I am very satisfied.

Perfect size! Light weight! Super fast!!!!!!!!!!!!

Worlds better than the intel model MacBook air’s. Highly recommend this laptop for basic day to day tasks and FaceTime calls. Battery life is incredible.

this laptop does everything I need for school. runs excel excellently, super fast and easy to navigate. also extremely light and easy to carry around, definitely would recommend for college

Quality MacBook.It has impressive battery life perfect for me since I’m a college student! The chip enhanced the speed and responsiveness of the laptop and enables my work skills better.

This computer is a great fit for me. It is lightweight and has an excellent battery life. Perfect for being a student-athlete and having to do assignments on the go.

Just bought this for my oldest son who is going into high school. He loves it’s super fast and easy to use since he’s already an apple user. He was able to connect all his school stuff seamlessly.

The Mac book pro is awesome. Small sleek, and powerful. The display is crystal clear and very clean. Although the speakers are small, they put out an amazingly crisp, clear sound.

Got this to replace my wife's aging 2016 12" MacBook and we're both impressed when comparing it to her old laptop and my 2019 MacBook Air. It's fast, runs cool, and no fan noise. It's almost always plugged in so can't speak to the battery life at this time. The new Mac OS 11 Big Sur is quite different but in a good way.

Purchased for my great granddaughter for college. She seems to love it. All good so far

Being an Apple person, I love the sleek, light, ease of use laptop. It has everything I need when on the go.

Everything was great quality! The laptop itself is great and I believe it fares well against even newer counterparts. It's light, feels comfortable to use, and is very worth the price. If you're looking for a laptop that will provide you all the same features as "newer" models, this is the answer.

Works way better than my 2011 MacBook Pro which just died. Use it for everyday things (Email, Yahoo, YouTube, banking, etc). Very fast, good picture, ease of use.

Happy with the purchase and especially the trade in policy of best buy is far better than Apple store. This laptop is faster and lighter than the previous one. You need to purchase a separate jack for connecting your phone if you prefer cable your phone charger wont work with this one.

I bought this MacBook Air to replace my MacBook Pro. MacBook Air is lighter, battery seems to last longer, and keyboard is easier to use. Also it is true that this computer does not get hot/warm, after hours of use stays cool and don't seem to get warm/heat up...nice

I really like using the MacBook Air, it is nice and compact.
