    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!

    I bought this for my daughter to take to college. It being small and light makes it great for carrying around campus and it is fast enough to handle everything she needs it to do.

    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.

    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.

    Battery life & M1's task efficiency vectors serve their purpose in allowing me to work for hours on end (sometimes the entire day 8-11 hours) before needing a charge. We know MBA's are known for their portability, but the gap is closing for benchmark efficacy between it and the MBPs thanks to Apple's SoC.

    Love this MacBook Air. I purchased it because I’m starting a business and I was recommended to buy this for the features it has. It comes in handy when I’m designing and editing projects. It’s so lightweight, the display is nice and clear and offers so many great features. Glad I made this purchase so far.

    I was hesitant on getting this, but I shouldn’t have been! This Air is an incredible machine. I’m a programmer and the M1 chip crushes everything I throw at it with no hesitation. I can spend all day programming, 8am-5pm, on a single charge and still have battery to last until I go to bed. Amazing!

    Great value. May not be the latest version, but for the casual user the quality and performance are great! Easy to use and access add-on are easy—just note usb-c ports and not regular usb.

    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.

    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.
