    The MacBook Air was bought for my daughter to take to college in the fall. It was easy to set up and has been a helpful tool as she prepares to head off to college. The fact that she can sync her phone and iPad to it were huge plus. Plus she loves the Rose Gold color.

    Love this new MacBook Air! Upgraded my old MacBook Air from 6 years ago with this new one, and am really happy I did. I am impressed with the speed and functions of this updated model with the Apple M1 chip. Easier house than the older version, and the speed is amazing. I've had it for over a week now and I absolutely love it.

    Love my new Mackbook air, I just sold slate 2013 Max pro which I loved. This was a great deal at $799, No Brainer.. I love the grey color!! Touch ID is awesome, Only downside is that you still need a password to login.. Great battery life, I was playing all day and only went down to 71%!!!

    The Mac book pro is awesome. Small sleek, and powerful. The display is crystal clear and very clean. Although the speakers are small, they put out an amazingly crisp, clear sound.

    Just bought this for my oldest son who is going into high school. He loves it’s super fast and easy to use since he’s already an apple user. He was able to connect all his school stuff seamlessly.

    This laptop is exactly what I wanted. I bought this for school/homework since I’m starting college in the fall. It’s so light and sleek. I love the rose gold color and just the layout of Apple laptops. I feel prepared for college now and I’m so happy that I put the money into a nice laptop that won’t fail me.

    All of my electronic devices are made by Apple so when it came time to update my old MacBook Pro I ultimately decided to stay with Apple. I did spend a few months looking at Windows machines, both gaming laptops and high-end laptops with the best Intel chip, good screen graphics, and so on. I did a reality check on myself and assessed what I actually do on my laptop. I use it for regular stuff like web surfing, social sites, emails, messaging, and writing. I ultimately chose the MacBook Air for its solid build, the great M1 chip, and excellent screen graphics. the super great feeling keyboard, and SSD. For my needs, it fits the bill nicely and I know it will be running 5 or 6 years from now. I have noticed that I am not getting the battery life this laptop is touted for. I get about six to seven hours on a charge. It's not a problem for me since I'm around an electrical outlet most of the time.

    Our old macbook was over 10 years old and we needed a new one. It provides the same quality and experience that we are accustomed to with all of our Apple products. It has enough RAM to use high end applications lightly and enough storage to mange work and other digital assets. The SSD is nice for stability. I'd recommend upgrading the total storage if you need it. 256GB works for us.

    Bought this for my niece and she is headed off to college. While a generation older as this is the M1 this MacBook should not be overlooked, especially if you're finding it on sale. More than enough for her needs and at a price that doesn't break the bank!

    This thing FLYS in everyday tasks. Battery life is amazing as well. Haven't had my own laptop in YEARS and this is an awesome entry back into things. Works great syncing with my Apple account and iPhone. Lightweight, great materials. Only thing I wish Apple would do is make the webcam 1080p. 720p in 2021 is ridiculous.

    I really love this MacBook Air. It has a very long battery life, it's easy to use and it can boot up quickly as well. I don't think I've touched on all of the other great features like the auto-brightness that adjusts to your surroundings as well. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking into buying a new computer.

    After years of using Windows based laptops, I finally decided to change. The most important reason is that I’m a musician and almost all of the software I use for mixing is Mac based. This was a no-brainer for me. As others have said in reviews, I’m also tired of buying sub par PC based laptops that don’t last. I finally decided to step up and spend some money and I’m glad I did. This laptop blows Windows based pc’s away. The M1 chip makes this laptop the fastest computer I’ve ever owned. No more waiting for the the operating system to go through 5 minutes of starting until you’re able to actually use it. This MacBook starts right up in a matter of seconds and is ready to use. Super fast! I also have an iphone 13 Pro, an IPad Air and an Apple Watch. I love the way they all work in harmony. Hopefully I’ll never have to touch a Windows based machine again. Buy it, you won’t regret it.
