    I was able to do a direct transfer from my old MBA (mid-2012). took a few hours as expected, but when finished it loaded up better than my old one. This is better than the product I expected, No hangs no crashes and seamlessly fit right back into the place I needed it on my network. Wiped my old MacBook and my 13 yr old loves it.

    Review from the perspective of Cubase/Windows User

    First off I really wanted to love this computer. Sadly it fell short in handling music productions apps. I loaded it with Reason 11, Cubase elements 11, Cubase pro 8 and a few Vsts like Avenger. Reason opened and played fine, though it did have trouble running Avenger; I made a tweak in the settings and made it work! Cubase on the other hand did not do well at all, Cubase elements showed a pink screen the entire time and creating new projects was impossible. Loaded Cubase Pro 8 and that managed to open but had some glitchy graphics, the UI kept bugging out specially when moving the pointer over certain areas of the window. Garage band and Logic played fine, they opened Avenger well but had trouble opening Reason rack as a plugin and crashed with a dialog box in each instance. As mentioned above I really wanted to love this computer but the shortcomings in regards to running my apps of choice didn't give me peace of mind. Also coming from the Windows OS side of things I felt that the MacOS is a bit less intuitive than Windows in some regards. For in Windows you can do a lot within the My Computer folder but I felt that the Finder tab in Mac was just not up to par. It felt like more work to dig through folders and vsti pathways to see if my expansions installed. The machine is of good build, looks attractive, has plently of accessory options, and may excell as a general everyday computer, not to mention it boots up with that nostalgic chime! At the moment though it does not play well with Cubase even through Rosetta. Also I failed to mention that the battery performance is really affected when running a midi keyboard and mouse through it. The fact that you need to plug in an extra adapter to even run the keyboard through USB A may drain even more power. In the end though I would recommed this computer to those who would use it for general everyday purposes. For people running Cubase or other music software I would be warry; you may be better of with a macbro pro (not sure though). At least until all apps are optimized for ARM. So sad that it didnt work out, really gave it a chance but in the end it just didn't work out. Returned it two days after purchase. Going with a Galaxybook Flex (we'll see how that goes)

    I bought it for my college student son and am a bit worried when it is a lightweight and thin notebook. I had to add the protection plan to it to have a peace of mind for both of us. My son loves it especially the battery is long lasting. I found that this is worth the price that I paid with a student deal. Good Deal!

    This MacBook Air was on sale due to the new M2 release. I upgraded the storage to 512 because it was affordable with the sale. Very happy with the performance and capabilities of this computer. Only thing I would change is the camera is not great for FaceTime. Very grainy.

    I’m very disappointed in all the little problems I’ve had with this laptop. Granted I waited 11 years before upgrading my old desktop mac to this laptop, but I am not wowed by it. Everything is too small to see well, and why only two ports? Major disappointment. Then I have “kernel panic” errors, and problems getting my messages and contacts to sync. Also have some duplicate birthdays on my calendar. Not happy.
