    What can I say. It does what it’s supposed to. I’ve been a religious Mac user since I was in IT sales 15 years ago and my last purchase due to budget was a PC. It worked for about 2 months then was garbage. Apples have always lasted longer and performed better and that’s even more true with the M1 processor.

    This is a phenomenal piece of equipment! First of all, even though the design and color is the same as last year, it still impresses me. The finish and design is such a pleasure to look at! The performance is 2nd to none for a machine this size and cost. I would have to consider it the best value for a laptop for pretty much anyone right now.

    Perfect but know it’s not 64 bit

    First of all, the battery life. Every single device I own and have owned, I have always taken the charger with me. This laptop I charge before I leave and I never bring the charger. The thing lasts almost 3 days on a single charge with quite a bit of use. The M1 chip is 32 bit NOT 64 bit so if you are planning to have some not so powerful games to kill time with it, then you will have to get a different laptop. I’d say about 95% of games on Steam only support 64 bit computers. Little games like Stardew Valley and Minecraft work on it though. You will need a cooling pad if you are playing games or having a ton of chrome tabs open because it does get hot. The screen exceeded my expectations because I didn’t realize it’s a 4k display. I assumed it was 1080p because I don’t really know much about MacBooks.

    Perfect for what i need to do! Fast operating system, the battery lasts for a very long time. I am able to use it atleast 5 hours a night for a couple nights and it lasts me. This is perfect for nursing school! It does take a moment to get used to the operating system coming from windows. It is super easy to use!

    This laptop is a replacement for another MacBook Air and I am very happy with its performance. I was lucky to find one with the new Apple M1 chip and you will immediately notice the difference against the intel core machines - very fast. If you are in the market for an apple laptop, I will certainly recommend a machine with the M1 chip.

    The MacBook air is a great laptop computer. It has more memory, a longer battery life, and is faster than my old MacBook Air. I bought a lightning port to USB adapter, and an Apple wireless mouse to complete the purchase. The Geek Squad loaded purchased software and internet browsers on the computer. A good purchase.

    This MacBook Air has more battery capacity than I can use in a day. It is consistently fast without a hiccup. I don’t need anti virus software. I originally purchased a laptop with an 11th generation i7 chip and it regularly took a while to open Office documents and the battery lasted less than 2 hours. Good riddance HP and hello Apple.

    Spend the money and buy a MacBook. All the other cheaper options just wig out. It’s just like switching from Android to Apple. Something Apple does makes their products far superior then other. We’ve had the same MacBook for a few years now and yet to have one problem. All other laptops I’ve owned had issues by now.

    Excelentes product. The battery is incredible. The chip M1 is fantastic and it is really fast. Also, the quality of the construction is very good. At the beginning I was very scary for the compatibility with programs but after I tested everything works perfect. This machine is awesome, the best thing is the battery.

    this was my first time purchasing an Apple MacBook Air so I don’t have anything to compare it to but so far I’m really liking it & it’s definitely new user friendly also the battery life on it really surprised me I’ve only had to charged it once since I picked it up from the store (9/13/21)
