    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

    Bought for my wife and she really likes. She is used to Apple computer and she said this one works very well, also looked for one with the latest M1 chip which they said performs better. No issues so far just wish it had at least 512GB for standard version.

    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 was hesitant about purchasing a Macbook since I’ve been a Windows user for all my life. But I’m pleased to say, this laptop has surpassed any windows device I’ve own! Great build, great feel, awesome screen and everything in between! If you’re considering purchasing, you won’t regret it! Came brand new with everything in the box!

    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.

    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.

    Bought this to replace an old windows laptop. The performance was night and day. Battery life is like using an iPad Pro. Would recommend for everything except heavy gaming. Its not meant to play games on, but you could if you wanted to. It excels at productivity, and general usage.

    M1 MacBook Air Much Improved Over Intel MacBook

    Improvements made by using the M1 chips in the MacBook Air line make them more productive and the base spec models are much closer in the level of productivity offered from the base spec M1 MacBook Pros. So now you don’t have to worry about sacrificing performance for the light weight portability of the MacBook Air.
