    Stunning power and battery life

    I've been a Mac user for nearly 18 years now and I have to tell you of the many, many Mac's I've owned in that time this might be the most impressive. I have to admit I was incredibly skeptical when Apple announced they were replacing Intel with their own chips. I couldn't imagine why Apple would even think to do that even though Intel had really stalled in development and focus the past few years. With that said, the MacBook Air I purchased is the base model 8GB/256 SSD in Gold as a replacement for my 16" MacBook Pro. I wanted something smaller and from what I read the M1 chip was incredibly fast and efficient. Boy that wasn't a lie. I am amazed at how fast this computer is compared to even my last MBP. It opens applications before the blink of an eye and it never gets hot while doing it. The computer is lightweight, efficient, and never breaks a sweat. I'll enjoy this one.

    I was reluctant to drop from my 16" MacBook Pro to a MacBook Air, but this is one of the best purchases I have made. It's as efficient as my older MacBook Pro and more portable. The size is perfect. It is fast and allows me to do photo and graphic editing with ease. I have yet to find something I'm not able to do with ease and efficiency.

    The Macbook Air is a fast computer, light weight, perfect for business. Love the touch id sign in no password necessary! Battery life is great. I have only charged my laptop twice since I bought it and have had it over a month.

    Very pleased with this first generation Apple silicon Mac. Its performance compared to its price point will blow you away. Battery life is exceptional. Overall a great laptop for anyone who is not doing professional work that requires a lot of performance. But you can definitely do some good photoshop, video, or sound production on this machine. If you are doing it professionally I would recommend the M1 Pro 14.

    The MacBook Air is awesome! Apple has made a product worth bragging about. The M1 makes the computer run smooth and I can't believe how quiet it runs and stays cool. I am definitely glad I bought the M1 MacBook Air and know it will last for years. My last MacBook Pro is still running but extremely slow. I have had it for 7-8 years.

    I love this MacBook! If you want something that is streamline and fast then this is the laptop for you. I use it for schoolwork as well as streaming movies. It is able to open may things at once without slowing down and when it is unplugged the battery lasts for a long time.

    What can I say about the new M1 Macbook Air that everyone hasn't already mention? It is such a huge upgrade to the previous generation in terms of battery life and performance. I can go 12-14 hours of use on a single charge at medium brightness. This is unheard of just a year ago, but I am loving the new cpu architecture. Sorry Intel/AMD you will need to address the power consumption of your chips to compete with Apple. My programs and apps fly with this new computer. For the value you pay it is totally worth it. The only cons I have is the limited ports. 2 TB4 ports and headphone jack will not cut it Apple. We need a standard SD card slot and HDMI port to really make this better than it is.

    Purchased this MacBook Air for general use. Definitely lightweight. I love that it can connect to my IPad Pro and I can use it as a second screen. It has a backlit keyboard which is a nice feature. Setup is super easy if you already have an iCloud account plus you can use finger id to unlock. Definitely worth the price!

    Was happy to be able to snag this M1 model MacBook Air for the academic year with the students discount. It’s as lightweight as I need it to be and MUCH MORE efficient than my 2015 MacBook in terms of battery and processing speed. Definitely the upgrade I needed without having to compromise cost for a Pro model.

    This is my first MacBook it came yesterday and I'm learning all the things it can do. its a beautiful laptop. I purchased the silver 256gb and I can say I'm loving it. its was well worth the purchased. this machine is really fast and that's a plus. I purchased the HP laptop and returned it and got the Mac Air I'm glad I chose the Mac and I purchased 2 cases from amazon that fit perfectly. I'm a happy camper

    This laptop works great! I've had a couple of Macs before but never an Air and it is so light but also durable and fast. I can do everything I need to with the specs for this and it runs smooth. Highly recommend!
