    So far it’s good. I liove Apple products. This is so light like air and need to be careful notto drop it as I had a Mac book pro before which was much heavier. It just takes time to adjust I’m sure it will be just fine

    This is the best Mac ever - fast, affordable, beautiful. The M1 processor is dramatically faster than its predecessors. Everything about the computer not only fulfills the mac goal - "it just works" - now it works really, really fast.

    This is great and my girlfriend loves it. I bought it for her school and it syncs with apple ecosystem flawlessly. Only downside is everything needs a usb c adaptor to use thumb drives or any other usb devices.

    The MacBook Air that I purchased is an easy-to-use, media-friendly device. Since I create a lot of PowerPoints and use plenty of visuals and photos, it is outstanding for these applications.

    I have loved all my Macbook Airs, but this one does seem a bit peppier. Hard disk and RAM Sizes are right for most of your needs. Battery life was getting a little weak on my decade plus old aluminum clamshell model with 4 gig. :)

    Apple stuff is not inexpensive, but just seems to work well. This is a good laptop for the money. It's not the most powerful but for everyday stuff, works well. It has all the Apple integration you would expect.

    This is hands down the best laptop out there and an amazing value for what you get! And the battery is phenomenal - I can go days without charging. The M1 chip is blazing fast! This is the MacBook to get! Mind blown!

    A Mac at nearly PC prices

    This was a great buy. With the $200 discount from Best Buy, this is a Mac at iPad prices. I was originally going to buy a PC to run model railroading software but the Best Buy salesperson, like me, was a big fan of Macs and advised us to consider buying the Air because of the better reliability of Macs. As a staunch Mac advocate since I saw the first Mac in January 1984, I concur. With the exception of a 17" PowerBook whose battery expanded, wrecking the then 10 year old PowerBook, I have never had a Mac stop working. My 27 year old Power Mac 8500 still runs like new!
