    This upgrade works perfectly for my needs. The MacBook Air is fast, quiet, light and pretty cool to look at. For the price and the quality it can't be beat.

    I have to say—this is an amazing laptop! The design is beautiful, slim, and flush. I came from buying a 2016 MacBook Pro, and this is way better. The M1 Chip is ultra-fast compared to my old Intel processor, and the new processor works really well with apple’s OS. I love the fan less design with no noise, and power is never an issue with its long-lasting battery. Half a charge lasts me all day. The only thing I think is weird about the entire laptop is that it’s an “air” model, and yet, it weighs a lot for its visual size… Must be the quality speaking.

    Overall, the MacBook Air 13.3-inch was an excellent choice for users seeking a lightweight, portable laptop with impressive performance, a high-resolution display, and an extended battery life. However, it's important to check for any updates or newer models that may have been released since my last knowledge update to ensure you're getting the latest features and specifications.

    Very light & compact. I had to adjust to using an apple device again. I now wish I would have purchased a larger one due to the screen size. I love it!

    The MacBook Air with the Apple M1 chip is a fantastic piece of technology. The M1 chip provides lightning-fast performance and smooth multitasking, making it a great option for both personal and professional use. The build quality is top-notch and feels very durable. The battery life is also impressive, lasting for several hours even with heavy usage. Overall, I highly recommend for anyone in the market for a powerful, reliable, and portable laptop.

    The Best Lightweight Laptop

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Hands down the best lightweight laptop money can buy. It is fast, capable, and extremely ergonomic. The battery life is phenomenal. The pricing may seem somewhat high in comparison but I bought this to replace an old Air originally purchased in 2014 that only stopped working because it was physically damaged. These things are tanks. I never had a windows machine last more than three years regardless of the manufacturer. Spend the extra money up front and you’ll realize greater savings and a more enjoyable user experience over time.

    I purchased this laptop in open box excellent condition and it has been absolutely great. It's smooth and very quick with processing. Very easy to carry around compared to my old laptop. Display is bright, and the battery life is wonderful. I'm finding that I can go a couple days or more before I have to charge it. I am enjoying this purchase and would recommend to anyone else.

    GOOD, except lack of port on the right hand side

    PRO: First, the keyboard is fast. At first I did not believe this "butterfly" keyboard would make any difference, but I immediately fell in love with this touch once I start typing. Second, the speed is good. I found not glitch running any program. Also, the computer is not heated up like my previous MacBook Air (2015). Third, the Retina display is good. I love it. My eyes feel good at this. CON: I would hope Apple make at least one USB port at the right hand side. It is inconvenient that I always have to connect the power to the left hand side.

    Bought for School Laptop—even better than expected

    This is my first MacBook I have ever owned. It was a bit of a foreign device for the first few hours of use, but I feel the setup is so intuitive and user friendly it would come very naturally to virtually anybody using it. I bought it as an upgrade from an old laptop that simply was not meeting my needs as a college student and it checks all of my boxes. It’s fast, reliable, easy to use, holds its charge for a great amount of time, is small enough to fit in my backpack, and the keys on the keyboard are quiet. If you’re considering, ESPECIALLY as a school laptop, I think it fits the bill perfectly. It interfaces very neatly with other apple products, which was a draw for me though I didn’t think it’d help as much as it does. I don’t have social media apps on my laptop, so when I get texts while I’m working I can just quickly respond and get right back to work without risking a 2+ hour social media detour. The M1 chip is powerful enough to easily get through any school work I have (quizzes, exams, papers) and, with the M2 chip now out in the most current MacBook Air, the M1 is priced at what I feel to be entirely reasonable for the device you get. It is absolutely still expensive, but you get what you pay for with tech. My former laptop (a chromebook) was a fraction of the price, with a fraction of the capability. Love love love this laptop, and highly recommend it to anybody considering it.

    This is a great portable laptop with a great battery life. It does everything I want it to in the speed that I need it to. I don’t do any gaming or programming or anything, just everyday tasks. I was able to snag one <$800 brand new a few months after this model came out so the total value for me was amazing at the time.

    Great laptop for every day use. Unless you are a power user, this laptop will do just fine as a daily driver, capable of doing light video and photo editing. The only con is the lack of ports but that can be fixed with a hub. The screen is beautiful, the keyboard feels great and the battery life is superb. Get this when it is on sale $799 (it is on sale quite often), it will be the best than any other laptop at that price range.
