    I bought this Mac Air for my daughter. When I turned it on it found my MacBook Pro on the same network and asked me if I wanted me to transfer my data to the Mac Air, I said yes and that went well, I then wanted to reinstall Big Sur and it said the Big Sur I was trying to install was too old. (I had just downloaded it) I read some Apple help that said try formatting the drive. That did not help. Then I deleted the partitions and nothing would work. It could not find an administrator. My daughter returned to Redding where I perched another Mac Air M1 and she picked it up. (I ordered it online and she is very happy.) I returned the original computer to the Best Buy in Soquel. It turned that I was in the Beta program that got transferred from my MacBook Pro and the new Air couldn't go back from the beta version. The Best Buy team went above the call of duty to help me. (unlike the Apple Store does.) I will always buy from Best Buy!!

    Replaced my old MacBook Air (early 2014) w/this one! Very glad I did, it's remarkably fast and love the touch ID feature. Mac's aren't cheap, but considering I got 7 years out of the old one, they are worth the expense. Got a great deal on a new one at best buy and was treated very well and the Geek Squad did the data transfer and set up as part of the Total Tech package and I highly recommend the Total Tech as well!

    I previously had an outdated MacBook Air. I bought this to replace my old one. Love how easy it is to set-up and the collaboration between other Apple products. Best Buy delivered promptly too and I received free trials to Apple TV, Arcade, etc.

    Extremely happy with this purchase. Was debating between the MacBook and a Microsoft laptop. I was concerned about the 13.3" size of this MacBook, but decided for my use a smaller device might be better. I had also read the Apple M1 chip was extremely fast. Turns out the chip is noticeably faster than my previous Macbook and my wife's Microsoft Surface laptop. Granted her laptop is a couple of years old, but then again it cost more.

    Love the new M1 MacBook Air 13"

    Love the new M1 MacBook Air 13". Would really recommend getting the MacBooks with M1 if in the market to purchase new laptop. Only recommendation would be to those that spend 8 hours+ straight working on laptop to get the MacBook Pro version since that one has the active cooling system. When I use the MacBook Air for 8 hours+ the laptop does start to noticeable get hot because of it's passive cooling system. Apple doesn't disappoint with both of these new MacBooks. :)

    After being a PC user for years, it has taken some leaning and adjusting to get used to the MacBook. But it makes transferring pictures and other things from my iPhone to the MacBook SO easy. That's why I wanted a MacBook.
