    Laptop has combined speed and power for academic and personal activities. Browsing the internet, reviewing and creating documents, printing material with ease has helped our children tackle recent forms and activities. Much better than the old Intel-based PC laptop. Get this one while on sale.

    Fast and light; I purchased this Macbook for editing photos on the go. It does the job. My main frustration is the lack of USB-C ports. 2 is not nearly enough and finding a USB-C splitter for additional port access is difficult. Come on apple, you give at least 3 USB-C ports.

    We already own an Apple Watch,ipad,and an iMac, so it was only natural to complete the cycle. My iMac is the newer M1 processor, and so is this MacBook. It does not dissappoint ! it is quite a transition from an HP PC, and it's fealty to Microsoft, but well worth it! sharp, clear graphics, blazing fast speed. Best Buy made the switch simpler with it's time payment programs and it's amazing customer service.

    I’ve been a Mac user for over 10 years. The ease of use, quality of hardware, and software has been nothing less than superb, in my opinion. I bought this exact model, a year prior for my college bound freshman. This is going to my next college student. We’ll be a Mac family for life.
