    Great laptop for young high schooler and college student. Good battery, solid build, light and can get pretty much anything done (except extreme video editing or coding). Great for the average consumer.

    This MacBook Air replaces a MB Pro that provided me with 9 years of excellent service. The MB Air is very light, very fast and I love the Touch ID pad so I don't have to put in the passwords. Very happy with my new "toy".

    Open box.. but it still comes with other bestbuy promotions. Free vaccine program, music and news. It is beautiful design and light. very satisfied. However, i am not familiar with Mac OS and have very hard time to figure out.

    The whole experience on the m1 MacBook Air is smooth. Great battery life. It’s really fast when making and editing music with Logic Pro X. The MacBook Air barely gets warm when you are really putting this MacBook Pro to work.

    Great so far. The space gray is nice. It is speedy and fits my needs. Only issue is that there are only two ports, so you have to buy an adapter to be able to use usb or hdmi, that sort of thing.

    The new M1 chipped Apple MacBook Air is awesome! The laptop is much more responsive than the Intel version and the battery lasts twice as long! And there is no fan either! definitely recommend if you need a small, fast laptop!

    Gorgeous and Light Machine. Worth It, No Doubts

    Great Laptop! Those of us who are thorough in our research, hear the same things about Windows based and MacOS based devices. Yes, you may be able to find a better spec'd Windows based laptop, maybe at the same or a cheaper price but its very unlikely to have the build quality, fluidity(M1), battery life, quietness and thinness. Not only that, you know, a Macbook will last you 5-10 years at a minimum without breaking down. As someone who uses Windows based PC, MacOS devices, and Samsung devices everyday there is definitely a learning curve... But using them all together is terrific. The beauty of modern technology! If you are wondering about the gold, its definitely more of a Rose. Makes my Macbook Pro from 2013 look like a relic. Enjoy!

    I got this laptop for work and online classes. I love the multi windows. The being on a zoom call, and still be able to get work done, in another window. great size, easy to use and set up was a snap.

    What can you say? The M1 chip is a total game changer and all other makers are now playing catch up to Apple. The Air is the best bang for the buck in terms of mobile computing options. Highly recommend.

    Can’t tell any difference, when compare to Pro Mac. Overall, Mac Book Air is less expensive and just as fast as the Pro. So, why do you need to pay more? The only difference is the Pro has the bar.

    New Mac Air

    Speed is great. It is mostly familiar since I had a Mac Air. It would still be helpful if there was more guidance about the new features. The backlighting features are a little frustrating. I think they are a bit more complex than need to be. The color selection aspect is fine but the practical application not so much. Overall the product is very good. the weight and the screen make it a great and practical travel companion.

    Great powerful thin laptop. I choose this because it’s portability. Something the MacBook Pro doesn’t offer, not ven the 14 inches. This one is good enough for coding and compiling.

    Solid, fast, no nonsense laptop for general use. As long as Apple doesn't try to shoehorn its computer line into the walled-garden nonsense of their phone ecosystem, I'm a fan.
