    So far it is nothing less than spectacular. We are learning how to MAC after 20 years of PC use. Basics are the same, but the implementation language is different. So far so good. We love this machine and am delighted with its overall performance. Having been an original Mac owner in 1984, it is so much fun to come back to the Mac. It is just more fun than a PC. Just the whoosh when you send an email...where else but the Mac. A great choice.

    When you hear refurbish, you get nervous about certain things with the product, but this seriously was the best choice to go with Best Buy for my laptop with Apple. This is just as good as getting an apple certified product off the Apple refurbished site!!!

    After getting a MacBook Pro that was a several years removed from new, this new Air has been a breath of fresh air. I have it on almost everyday for studying and supporting my friends Twitch streams and it's like breathing air for it. I'm compiling VERY basic code with it with no issues either. If you're just looking for a laptop for very easy things to do and looking to upgrade a device that's long used it's last legs this is the device for you!

    Couldn't be more impressed or happier with this purchase. I wanted a laptop that I could connect to the Dell D6000 USB-C dock with dual 24" monitors that I have set up for my work from home workstation. All of the apps that I need for home use seem to be compatible with the M1 chipset and it appears to be ridiculously efficient. The battery easily lasts the weekend and it never gets warm when I use it as a laptop on my lap. I highly recommend.

    Excellent product and received in a well packaged box. As for the product itself, it does what is asked of it. It is quick without delays and multitasks with ease. There is a slight issue with compatibility with with certain applications due to the switch to Apple’s M1 from the Intel chip but not a terrible problem for me right now. Otherwise, great product!

    Very happy with my purchase, had a Mac book back in like 2015 & am glad to see the changes & advances made towards making it so much better. Also over the moon about the cost I was able to get it at, definitely a steal!

    As much as I hate macOS still after having a few months of ownership with this, this hardware is way ahead any of the PC counterparts which honestly makes me pretty sad because I love Windows. Yes, battery life is insane, yes the video editing capabilities are actually kinda out of this world compared to my purpose-built desktop. Highly recommend if you need a good laptop affordably. Have fun with macOS though.

    No Reward Points for Apple Products!!!!

    Product is great as are all Apple products. Easy migration from my earlier MacBook Air. But be aware that NO BEST BUY REWARD POINTS ARE EARNED ON APPLE PRODUCTS. I guess its my fault for not reading the fine print. Next time I'll walk down the block to the Apple store and won't have to wait around for a someone to show up to answer my questions.

    The MacBook Air is everything I hoped it would be, and more. Already an iPhone user it's great to have everything seamlessly synced to a larger device. Being so lightweight it is ideal for browsing the web from the couch or sending emails and watching movies on a plane. The keyboard is amazing for such a small machine and easily outperforms my larger work laptop.
