    Not what I expected

    I was told that this Mac Book Air with the M1 chip was similar to the 2018 MacBook Pro Interl I5; however, I had to exchange it after a few hours of usage. The Air is mainly designed for very simple web searching and emails. Although, I do not do any photo or video editing, I do surf the web and have multiple tabs open, I like switching to emails, attachments and listen to music. When you do all these things the computer slows down, which is considerably noticeable. Switching to the MacBook Pro M1 was a totally different experience. The computer runs buttery smooth, the keyboard is amazing, the camera is top notch, but I am overall impressed with the performance. It was totally worth spending the extra money to upgrade. However, if you are going to do simple web searches and emails, the Air is good enough, but would not recommend as a work laptop or if you are a person that has many programs open. The 8GH memory is just not enough, you need 16GH that the Pro offers in order to have a smooth experience.

    So far I've enjoyed it! Most developers already have software for the M1 chips. NOT ALL DO THOUGH! And some are still not fully compatible.

    I have an iPhone, Apple Watch, and iPad, but this is my first Apple laptop. Figured it was time to invest in a new laptop so why not a Mac since all my other devices are Apple. Thought the transition from PC to Mac would be difficult, but so far so good. Still getting used to the different commands, but I knew it would take me a bit. Overall, happy with my purchase!

    Wonderful, but I can't get used to the USB-C port. It really limits the devices you use it with and the printers you can connect unless you buy adapters for all your devices. It would be better with an adapter already included for ease of use or at least more than just one port. Stunning display and fast hardware but just not a great transition.

    This is an excellent laptop for students or anyone who just needs a computer that can travel with ease. I highly recommend this MacBook for anyone who has not had a Mac before and doesn't want to spend a ton of money with their first purchase. You will not be disappointed.
