    Good System, Needs USB A & USB C on both sides

    I almost exchanged this because I thought there was an issue, but I think it is a growing pain from switching to M1 (I think the program is x86). The battery life is great. It really lasts all day. I have not timed it, so I cannot confirm the exact numbers. The keyboard was important to me and the depth was just enough, it is backlit (another requirement). The keyboard isn't mushy, which is harder to find without spending a fortune than I thought. I do miss having a touchscreen in Windows 10. TouchID is much better that Lenovo's fingerprint solution. I like the smaller size, but both side should have USB C so you can charge from either side and full size USB should not have been cut. I'm learning DaVinci Resolve 17 and even though I bought the cheapest M1 8GB MacBook air, I can export apx 200fps at 1080p HEVC with transitions and effects, on battery. Overall, great Black Friday buy.

    The 13inch MacBook Pro was one of the best laptops I have ever owned. The M1 chip truly makes a difference, the start up time is almost non-existent. On top of this the battery life is absolutely amazing, I use my Mac a lot and I only have to charge every two days. The USB C charger, charges the Mac in absolutely no time. On top of this the software is absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants a very versatile and efficient laptop.

    Fast and responsive- a marked improvement to the old iMac which seemed to take forever to start up. I like the change to a two part power cable since previous cables for laptops were a distinctly for the laptop and didn't cross over for use with the iPhone. it is lightweight. Like all Apple laptops, the word processing software is unique to Apple and does not instinctually translate to more widely used Microsoft programs. (and the "gold" color is actually a lovely rose gold)

    I'm no expert on computers but this thing blows my mind. The fact that I can get this much power, with this much battery life that feels modern and has a great screen with a fantastic keyboard feels like a steal. I used this same model for a couple years as a work computer and then bought one for personal use. They have both been amazing.

    I was in a bind because I had a 2013 MacBook Pro that had been working perfectly, then died completely on me a week before this semester. I knew I wanted to get another Mac and this one is perfect for what I need to accomplish for school. The Touch ID is probably the best feature that I wouldn’t have expected to make a big difference. The computer itself is beautiful and lightweight. If you’re in the market for a good school or home-use computer, you can’t go wrong with this one.

    I wanted a personal laptop with good quality, lightweight but above all with a GOOD BATTERY. This laptop meets all my requirements. I am happy with it. Great screen quality, keyboard and tremendous speed. The only bad thing is, if you are going to limit the user to USB-C ports at least put one on each side so we can charge the laptop from either side. Even better put one on each side and one on the back. It's not rocket science Apple!

    It's the best laptop I've ever owned. This is from a longtime Windows user.. it took a while to get used to MacOS but the effort was worth it. Great screen, incredible battery life, fast CPU, robust construction... It's still powerful, even though it's a couple of years away from the latest designs.

    Wish I could give this laptop 10 stars! I had recently bought a Surface 3 laptop literally just a day before the new Mac M1 MacBook Air was announced. I was still within my return period so I returned the Surface and got the new Mac. I'm so glad I did. Everything about the new MacBook Air is amazing -- no fan so its quiet all the time, its super fast and the gold color is amazing! Thanks to Best Buy for the excellent return policy. Go get this computer, you will not be disappointed!
