    Absolutely wonderful! Super easy to use and set up. I am excited to be able to use a new computer for my grad school since my old laptop has bit the dust. Pretty color. No complaints. Absolutely in love!

    M1 is fast. Computer runs cool & silent. Bought this for my wife. She went from hating her PC laptop to enjoying the convenience of the Apple ecosystem. Way more computer power than she will ever need yet nice & compact.

    Best computer I’ve ever owned! Super fast and efficient, it really never skips a beat. Haven’t had any issues even when playing Sims 4 for hours. Great battery life and stays cool for most tasks. I’d recommend to almost anyone.

    I’m blown away from the performance and battery life of the M1 chip. If you’re on the fence between this and the Pro 13”, get the 8 gpu core version of the Air. It takes roughly 10 minutes of 100% cpu to thermal throttle. And the Touch Bar is just a gimmick.

    Great power. Great battery life. Logic runs amazingly on it. Pro Tools can beach ball here and there, but no more than on an intel machine. This is a solid machine. I wish Apple would bring back the MagSafe chargers for their Mac line

    Amazing computer, sleek and stylish, does everything I need it to as a student and then some. Everything is easy to navigate and the controls (mousepad, buttons, etc.) are so simple to use. Perfect for school or just everyday use!

    It's absolutely amazing what the M1 chip can do. The battery life and power is truly astonishing. I am excited for more and more apps to become available to use natively rather than through Rosetta (which is incredibly impressive itself)

    Got this for my wife to seamlessly bring work from her phone to her computer and also have the computing power to operate without the same interruption her previous laptop was giving her. By far a much better running laptop.

    I've had a 2011 Macbook Pro since it came out and it lasted me until this year but I felt it was long overdue for an update. I settled on this model because it was of the weight, features, and most especially the M1 chip. No regrets so far!

    I recently switched from windows to apple system. This laptop is very light. The apple system takes some time to get used to. The battery life is pretty great, and i can truly say it doesnt overheat and it is very quiet. Very good purchase.

    The M1 has surpassed all expectations. Fast and battery that lasts well over 12 hours. Editing photos and videos is a breeze thanks to the powerful processor. The experience will get better once more apps are optimized for the M1

    Had the machine about 1 month. Super long battery life, great speaker, fast, nice feel to the keyboard. Had to buy a dongle for the input, slightly inconvenient, but now works with all my devices. So far, so good.

    Excellent product. Sleek and easy to use. Be aware, that unlike a Macbook Pro, the Macbook Air has only has 2 ports on the left side of the computer (this is something the description does not tell you). A minor inconvenience.

    I've been very happy with this computer. Bought it so I could keep up on a few work tasks while in Hawaii. It's worked flawlessly so far and I've been very happy with the battery life per charge. Haven't run out of juice yet.

    Very good laptop for the money. M1 chip pretty much makes photoshop a breeze and multi-tasking capabilities are very snappy. Super light and versatile if you dont wanna put out for the heavier macpro.
