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

I love my MacBook Air! The color is really pretty. I have rose gold.It is lightweight and very easy to use! Great for school or work!

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.

love the performance on this one. small and light weight for easy travel. I can access so many things for personal and work. battery lasts me all day.

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.

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.

Overall, the MacBook Air is a great choice for students, professionals, and anyone seeking a highly portable and capable laptop for everyday use. Its combination of performance, design, and battery life makes it a top contender in the ultraportable laptop market.

If you want a lightweight, powerful, and long-lasting machine, this is it. Apple knocked it out of the park with the M1 chip!

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.

I feel like I got this 2020 Macbook Air at a super reasonable price. I weighed up my options between the M1 and M2 chip models, but didn’t feel like I needed to spend so much just to have the newer and latest model. While I’m sure the M2 models are great (and a step up), the reviews for the 2020 Macbook Air still really sell them as awesome laptops - so I decided to buy it and what a great discounted price Best Buy offers…it’s cheaper than getting it from the Apple Education store!

Fantastic!! Would highly recommend this MacBook Air for everyday use, business/personal you name it. I'm absolutely thrilled with my purchase and it serves all my needs. Great gift for a student, teacher, novice, anyone needing a device that's easy to use and nice to look at. I love it!

Bought this not doing research so this is technically my fault but I thought this MacBook would have usb ports but no it comes with USBc ports which was frustrating other then that it's pretty good it does overheat but that rarely when I'm playing games to max settings very useful tho fast and reliable only thing I hate is it does t have usb only USBc wich means to connect usb connections you will need to buy a separate device to connect this usb other hand it has no sd card slot which was a bummer because once again I had to buy a device that had a SD card reader other then that the device works really well fast but no USB ports.

I love the color! It definitely does not weigh as much as my MacBook Pro and it is easy to use and easy to transfer my information from the Pro to the Air. Battery life is definitely better, but if you need to use your device often throughout the day, you should definitely carry your charger with you.

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!

I was in market for a laptop after about six years (yeah yeah.. I know you might think I am cheap but I think I 1) buy relatively quality products (conditioned on my affordability) and 2) simply take care of the things hence they last longer. I am generally on my laptop at least 16 hours every day and I mean to the last minute... I normally have around 5 pdf books open, 3-5 presentations, at least 20-30 large excel sheets, 10ish tabs in my browser including youtube and a programming language interface. You might have guessed that I am a very light user of laptop.. I have tried 4 laptops before settling in with this MacBook Air. All of these had at least one of the below issues: 1) fan noise 2) bad keyboard ergonomics 3) heating issues 4) relatively slow despite of having latest core i7 and 16 GB RAMs 5) very expensive..not value for the money This MacBook ticks all the boxes and does not suffer from any of the above issues..ok,ok, I get it, I agree it is a bit on the expensive side but it is still a good value for the money...In short, BUY it you will not REGRET it!!

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.

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!

Couldn't be happier. Long-time Mac and current 27" iMac user here, and after reading tons of reviews on the current (M1) line, it was pretty clear that the 13" M1 MacBook Air was the right choice for me in terms of power, portability, and price point. I had an 11" MacBookAir years back that I loved, and I love this one even more. Best Buy was great... my new Air came right away, much faster than other shops were offering. Highly recommend!

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 ;)

This is a great laptop. It is small in size and lightweight. It is also very quiet and fast. I highly recommend this.
