    Perfect use for middle/high school student (gift). MacBook Air provides the portability, lightweight, fast, great display and keyboard is functional for its size. Purchased @BB on sale at savings of $200+ vs Apple store.

    Great! Plenty of space for all my genealogy research and photos! BB Geek squad transferred all my data over; great experience overall. Highly recommend the Geek Squad support staff. Have used them locally and virtually to great success.

    Concerned about the SSD write issue for M1 Macs. Otherwise it's an impressive laptop. I've been using Windows (since 20 years) and Linux (since 7-8 years) and I feel Mac is best of both worlds. It's definitely way better than Windows. Mac OS is not as flexible as Linux but it does have some Windows like trackpad gestures and OS stability. TLDR: Buy after Apple fixes the SSD write issue.

    Really good performance for the price. A funny comment to have for an apple product but it's true in this case. Well built all around machine that puts money into the right areas for an all around laptop.

    We upgraded from a 2012 MacBook Pro and the difference is night and day. The benchmark performance is about 3x improvement with no fans. There’s a current bug with Big Sur that would just go to screensaver in the middle of use, hopefully Apple will fix it.

    This is my first electric tea pot and I love it. There is a dial which has the different temperatures to use for the type of tea or hot cocoa you are going to make. The water is ready very quickly. Very easy to use.

    Love this thing!! I have been doing audio and video editing with Logic and Final Cut Pro; super large files and what not. This has handled all the tasks without a hitch!! Beautiful screen, and the system has yet to freak out without the internal fan.

    I’ve always owned HP laptops in the past and they only last a couple years so I decided to spend the extra money and buy my first MacBook. I love it. Very lightweight and now I understand why people spend the money on MacBooks.

    I damaged my 2015 Mac book pro and after careful consideration and viewing all reviews about new Mac Books pro 14" and 16" inch decided to go with 2020 Mac Book air. Got 512 Gigs of storage. Can't go wrong with this M1 chip

    Excellent laptop! I have been using a Windows run laptop for years so the adjustment to this Mac took a while but it was worth it! I can’t believe I haven’t switched from a Windows run system to an OS run system sooner.

    For the price, you can't find a better computer. I'm replacing a $2200 MacBook Pro with this and the difference is night and stay. The new Air is insanely fast and runs exceptionally cool no matter how many programs and peripherals I have attached.

    I have used pc for years and have had to replace them every two to four years because they slow down dramatically. I never thought a computer could move so quickly. I am very pleased with this purchase and hope it lasts for years to come.
