Get this on sale and it's arguably the best deal to break into the Apple environment. Yes, the hard drive is small so if you can swing it get the next up (you cannot upgrade it yourself since everything is soldered to the board now, I mean go ahead and try there's just a high chance of failure). I bought this not for the processing power (it works great for what I need, no crazy graphical work) but because of the efficiency. The M1 chip is uncanny, I can do so much internet browsing / miscellaneous work and the battery just lasts forever. Charging it really does not take that long either, with charging it briefly still amounting to at least an hour of work. Yes, 8GB of RAM is not the best standard in this day and age but 8GB soldered to the board seems to be on par with 16GB of RAM in your basic Windows Machines! Price matched with MicroCenter (despite them telling me they do not do that at first) and got this for $850 -- an Apple laptop for that price I know will last.

Easy to use! Completely covers everything from school work to my day to day meetings online. Web surfing is a breeze!!

My very first MacBook and I am in love! So glad I finally invested. It's lightweight and faster than any Windows I've owned. I'm still getting the hang of things, but so far so good.

After a month of use, no issues. Battery lasts a long time, no lagging, good for multitasking between devices.

I love it! I love the portability and battery life is great. I am able to go days on a single charge with light usage.

I was looking to replace an aging windows laptop that has updates every week. The last straw was when it locked up on a very important app and the app would not work even after a reboot. Before I bought this laptop I have never owned an iPad or MacBook. It took less than 30 minutes to do the initial update, setup and install all my apps. My only problem is that a program like Parallels desktop is needed to run a couple of windows only programs and games. The battery life is great, good speakers, charges with my iPhone charger, it’s not heavy, has not crashed, good screen, nice aluminum body, etc etc.

So far so good! Have had this MacBook for three weeks. It is lightweight, fast, and responsive. The display is great. My only complaint would be that the trackpad is a little touchier than my last MacBook and takes some getting used to.

Nice, fast, light, portable and powerfull. It's a wonderful tool

I am blown away at how fast the MacBook is. I went from an HP pavilion with a Core I5 and the Macbook with the M1 Chip blows it away. The great thing too is? No fan noise! super quiet!.

You can't go wrong with a MacBook in general however adding in the new M1 chip is a game changer. Battery life is extended, speed has improved and overall a huge improvement over my old MacBook Air.

Love love love it. It’s lightweight and the keys are so easy flowing. The battery life is awesome too. Don’t need to be charged as much as before. Would definitely recommend

Easy to use, great performance far our matching earlier models.

Works great, battery lasts as long as it should, and runs everything i need it to run

I love my MacBook! It’s beautiful and clean and is the fastest running desktop I have ever owned! Big fan

Amazing Compact Laptop great for everyday use. Much faster than my 10 year old MacBook Air

So far, so good. It runs smoothly. Got a discount on this laptop. I wish the screen could have been a lil bigger but its ok. Im still able to do the things i need to do with the laptop.

screen is amazing, it’s nice and clear and bright , fast at loading and the key board is nice when your in a dark room. Battery holds well and look of it all around is just very clean

I will never go back to a PC again. Processing speed is blazing fast. Runs all of my Adobe apps without any lag. Screen resolution is crystal clear.

Love how sleek and easy it is to use, I will never buy anything but Macbook

I needed a new laptop to upgrade from my 2014 MacBook pro. Hands down the best computer I’ve ever had and after 7 years of school and personal use it was starting to give me battery issues. But that was it, other than that I’m sure I could’ve gotten more years out of it but figured it was time to upgrade. This MacBook Air with the M1 processor is fast and sleek. I love how the space gray finish looks and I know I’ll get another 8 years out of this laptop. There’s a reason why these are priced higher than the others out there and that’s because you get a reliable device. The setup was smooth and the Ventura os is clean. I also bought the Microsoft office suite not M365 (I don’t need to pay the subscription IMO, I’m sure there’s value for others, just not for me). Excel and PowerPoint were the main two I needed and it was easy downloading those in and I got a discount when I bought it with the laptop purchase with Best Buy. Also the battery life is long - I’ve only charged it once and it’s lasted 4 days with roughly an hour use a day. If you are on the fence of buying this take my advice and do it. I bought this one over the M2 versions mainly because I didn’t want to spend more money if I didn’t have to and plus for what I needed it for I know the M1 is plenty.
