    This is the best computer that I have ever owned hands down. The screen and speakers and super nice and crisp. I use this as my main computer for about 5 hours a day and some how I only plug it into the wall every 2-3 days... that's crazy! Get this MacBook, you will not regret it one bit. Brings the Standard up to a new level.

    Used to not be a fan of MacBooks. The performance for the price was really horrible in the past. With these new M1 in house chips they are one of the best bang for your buck laptops on the market right now. No matter what you do (besides extremely heavy workloads/gaming) this thing will get it done!

    I’ve never owned a Mac before and this laptop has forever ruined me for all other PC’s. Im not the kind of enthusiast that can give you a litany of technical specs, sorry for that. As a Mac newbie, I can tell you that I don’t miss my HP.

    This is a super solid, easy to use laptop. The interface is smooth and I like that it integrates seamlessly with my iPhone - this was a feature I didn’t even know I needed because this is my first Apple computer I’ve ever had. This has made my schoolwork so much easier.

    Second MacBook Air and this one is a jewel. Great service from Best Buy. No hassles. I ventured into unknown waters buying the M1 chip. So far, GREAT. No heat. No whirring motor. No problem with replacement. Slight learning curve if upgrading from an older MacAir. Recommend product and Best Buy for this purchase.

    It's a pretty great laptop. I am very satisfied with my purchase. Although the screen is way smaller than I am used to, it also makes it more compatible. The only annoying thing about this laptop is that you need special adapters to plug in USBs or any sort of hookup. But overall very happy with my purchase! ☺️

    Flawless! I use this for school and it is amazing! The only downfall is the apps for Big Sur are not abundant yet but I can't wait for their to be more. Finally I look forward to the future with a computer instead of dreading it. This is the future.

    Before purchasing this, I was trying to suck all of the life out of my 2010 MacBook Pro. After using the new MacBook Air, I realize that the MacBook Pro was sucking the life out of me! It's super fast and responsive. I watched a movie and was very impressed with the graphics and it sounded amazing!

    I really enjoy using this computer! I am in college and have some online classes. Therefore between meetings and doing school work this computer works well through it all. It is a fast paced computer with great imaging. The battery on it lasts a while and the sound is also really great!

    I own many apple products. Most (MacBook Pro IMac Pro) fully loaded with memory and SDD. This MacBook Air with 512 GM SDD is by far the fastest for my uses which include surfing and investing. The M1 chip I believe is the next best thing with more to come. Highly recommended. You just might be spoiled!

    This is my first Mac in a couple of decades - can't believe I waited this long but then again this new M1 chip is so much better than the Intel chips that I just had to splurge. Glad I did. Also glad that I got the fanless MacBook Air - no dust to get inside and clog things up. Super quiet too!

    I was looking to upgrade from my old Mac air 2015 and I was researching a lot. After week of research I made this purchase and it's been fabulous so far. I do Real Estate work and lots of marketing and this computer supports all my programs open at the same time. Battery is AMAZING. Last the entire day.

    Had my last MacBook for almost 8 years, and only recently started having issues. I like the new track pad and how it feels, along with the sound, which is quite the upgrade. The keyboard feels comfortable when you type, and as always, the weight is one of the goto factors for getting one.

    I have always been a MacBook Air user. Getting this newer version gave me some hesitations but after getting it and started using it, it did not disappoint me. The processor is fast, I use it as my main laptop. I would definitely recommend it.
