    My third MacBook Air - 2012 still going strong, 2020 had the logic board crash, so we got this one on Black Friday. Basic configuration is plenty for us and home use. Fast and easy to use - great computer!

    Apple products are consistently superior compared to other cheaper laptops. I had to return a Windows laptop that was 200-250 less. I should have gone with a MacBook without looking at other laptops. With blotware the Windows laptop was simply annoying. So glad I return it and got a MacBook Air M1. It’s the 2nd time getting a MBA. Shouldn’t have wasted time and effort trying others.

    It’s hard to put into words the greatness of thus new MacBook Air. I wanted the air all along, but it was so underpowered I bought the 15”, 16gb, 500gb ssd to get what i needed. Now the air out powers the 2 years old 15” by a mile. Very happy. One caveat, a lot of my music software is not yet compatible. And a few other things. But Logic Pro works fab. As does final cut. This is a must buy!!!

    This is my first ever Apple computer that I own!! I’ve been a Windows user for 10 years! Very quick with it’s M1 chip and all their updates faith its operating system and I can’t really complain with all of their patches and other system updates. Very smooth from Apple and I look forward to keep on using this Apple product.

    I am enjoying my MacBook Air. I like the slim and trim style and size. However, I do wish it had a portal for a thumb drive. Unfortunately I didn't even think of this at the time of purchase. Your sales person was very helpful.

    Wife got it for her school. Great little machine, very powerful even with the 8 GB of ram. She uses it for sketch up and other softwares and runs like a champ. Never feels sluggish or slow. Wish we could run two external monitors with it but oh well. We are using a hub to drive the external keyboard and monitor with no issues.

    I bought this for travel and iPad replacement but I end up using it daily. I have a 15" Mac Pro that I use for work and I love that moving from one to the other is seamless. The main difference in the two is the screen bar on the keyboard and the screen size. Easy to set up and moved the toolbar to the left side.

    i think it’s the perfect size and has the capabilities for anything short of high intensity graphics work and even then it will hold its own. if you don’t know which macbook to get, this is the one.
