    Bought for my wife, she was immediately in love, battery life is insane, it runs great for what she does, general office work with Spotify or Apple Music rubbing with a ton of tabs open in safari and it Doesn’t slow down, the color and aesthetics help too, she says it’s beautiful.

    Took a bit to get used to since it’s a different operating system than windows or what I am used to in the past, but I will tell you the system exceeded my expectations… It is so much faster and there’s so much more available on a MacBook versus any other laptop I have had… I had nothing but problems with HPs, especially with them being so slow. My laptop was an HP and I always stood by their products. However, this last one was brand new and I had problems with it right out of the gate so if you are looking for a great product, I would save your extra money and make sure you get some space For what you need other than that it is a great system

    FINALLY made the switch to a Mac, and it is exactly what I hoped for. This machine is fast, light, and well constructed. It took a while to get used to the touch sensitive pad, but once I did it was great.

    Switched from a Lenovo Yoga and have zero regrets. The price can be prohibitive, but there's a reason Mac's cost what they do; they're worth it. Very reactive and user friendly and cannot say enough about the battery life. I use it primarily for homework and some web browsing, but it's an impressive machine.

    Upgrading from a 2013 MacBook Air, this one is ridiculously faster. The only downside, and it is a significant one, is the lack of ports. Having only 2 USB-C ports, one of which you need for power, is extremely limiting. My old MacBook had 2 USB ports, a fire port, and a power port. Other than that, highly recommend.

    If you want a great looking and speedy base model MacBook Air, this is a great option for you. It looks beautiful, the keyboard had a nice feel, contains pretty impressive battery life, and is speedy. If you don’t need the extra bells and whistles, this is perfect.

    This is the perfect laptop for everyday use. The M1 chip is plenty for the vast majority of users for years to come. Unbelievably light and portable, fantastic track pad and a great battery.

    its incredible how good this device is. its fast, the battery life is insane and all that with the typical things that apple does well like the keyboard, touchpad, and how solid the device is. my only wishes is that at sometime we get a bigger screen option and a way to get the 16gb or ram from best buy.

    I had an older MacBook that would get super hot when you would type anything for an hour. With this MacBook I have used it for school papers and it never got hot where you could hear the fan. Love it!

    Excellent laptop for the price! Have always loved Apple products and this product is no exception, first experience using the M1 chip apart from the new iPad and this is great on the laptop as well - runs very well with little to no fan noise or excessive heat coming from the machine.
