    This has been an amazing computer! The memory and speed are everything I needed to start my business! I bought one for my son to send off to college with as well. He loves his. We had the use the Apple Care once to fix his screen. Great buy! Now I have to buy another because my care was broken into and it was stolen.

    I received excellent service from the people at the Sam Rittenburg store. They are always courteous and helpful and I will continue to shop there. The Macbook Air I purchased is an outstanding product and I sold my old Mac Mini desktop and Ipad Pro since this newer, faster laptop takes the place of them both. I love this laptop and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for portability and speed of processor.

    We always have good experience buying a Best Buy. Bought this product for Black Friday, light, works great. Battery life appears to be very good. Very easy to search the web, as well as connect and adapt well to all of your Apple products.

    This MacBook is a great value, and I love the gold color, it is super fast and never locks up or needs to be rebooted. Light and very portable, great keyboard and screen, great for FaceTime, I highly recommend it!

    M1 power on the go! If you’re looking for a thin and light machine with a great display look no further! This replaced a 11.6” Macbook Air and is almost identical in dimensions. Ultraportable with 18+ hours of battery life running the brilliant MacOS.

    Amazing laptop for my every day usage. It is light to carry, sleek to hold and lightning fast. It is even faster than my MacBook Pro Intel. The battery lasts days and I think this is a MacBook I'll keep for many many years to come.

    Pro Reviews Are Right, MacBook Air Is Spectacular!

    The online rave reviews convinced me to switch away from windows and buy this MacBook Air M1. This is one amazing computer. For the money this is the fastest, the quietist, longest battery life, best keyboard, best track pad, great aluminum build, excellent screen and it is beautiful to look at. The aluminum and plastic are all recycled materials. macOS Big Sur 11.5.1 is spectacular as well. Recommended.

    I generally have been using my Macbook Pro from 2018... my wife has hers from 2015. This is for the kids for school... more than what they need for sure! Fast, quiet, lightweight, and inexpensive. Highly recommend for anyone regardless what they are using it for!

    Powerful Machine in a Small Package

    So far I am loving this laptop. I thought the screen size might be too small, given that I am used to working on a larger monitor connected to a desktop machine. But the high resolution and functionality that Apple's OS includes really make that a non-issue. I needed something portable to complement my desktop machine, and this is working flawlessly. Very pleased with my purchase.

    If you need a laptop now and can't wait for Apple to improve on its M1 chip later in 2021 or early 2022, get the late 2020 MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. You won't regret it. A smooth, fast, capable machine that is quick, stays cool and lasts a good long time on a single charge. Watch for occasional deals and you will feel even better about the purchase the more you use it.

    Super light, fast and gorgeous. As with most new Apple laptops, had to get a USB A adapter. Only two USB C ports and one of them is used up by the power cable. Obviously not designed to be for super heavy useage, but perfect for on the go.

    So light, you might forget you're carrying it. So beautiful, you might find it hard to tear your eyes away. The redesigned Apple® MacBook Air® laptop is up for whatever you have in mind. Fall in love with the built-for-stability keyboard and the roomy Force Touch trackpad, as an Intel Core i3 processor helps put your daily to-do list to bed -- and wakes up your creativity. Simply put, this laptop is a triumph.

    I am a data science researcher and I was worried about Unified Memory (RAM) size and the compatibility of my current programs. After using this laptop as my only laptop for over a month, there is nothing to be worried about! I use Matlab, Python, Terminal, specific packages made for Intel, Cellprofiler, Adobe, Office 365, Zoom, Chrome, and more! Everything runs great!!! No hiccups no compatibility issues.. Nothing. Unified Memory (RAM) is never a problem. Having all office apps open, illustrator and acrobat, safari, 5 desktops minimum, spotify, and other apps I use occasionally, it runs SMOOTH! I regularly hit 6.6GBs of 8GB use. I notice there is use of the swap memory more often, but the engineers at Apple, latest SSD controllers, and the latest SSD storage is able to handle this and even longterm. Battery life is amazing! No issues. Runs smooth and fast. Buy the baseline Macbook Air do not buy the pro or the 16GB Unified Memory.

    The screen on this laptop is gorgeous, the Touch ID is quick and a wonderful addition to a personal computer, the keyboard is best in class (so much better than those butterfly keyboards of old), and all of this in a thin, light machine. I love the portability of this computer, as it will be a main computer and a travel companion. Anything that needs pulled up feels as if it is waiting on demand - everything just snaps up and loads so quickly. The only complaint I have with the MacBook Air is its battery capacity. I will not deduct a star for the battery capacity because it will pretty much make it through an eight hour work day of productivity tasks including surfing the web, streaming and air playing video, and typing documents. After the eight hours have passed, the computer is on fumes and needs charged. This does meet my needs, though my three year old MacBook Pro did do better on lasting my daily needs. I am always near a charging outlet and charger, so this isn’t a huge deal, but I worry about battery degradation. This computer is such a powerhouse in such a small package and at a relatively affordable price considering what you get and after paying the Apple premium. It makes light work of all the tasks I throw at it. I definitely recommend this comptuer.
