    I’m a freshman in college and needed a reliable computer to do work on. This one is great and easy to function. I like how it’s synced with my phone and I can manage my mail or text message turn my MacBook with simple apps. Also it’s light and slim, not like those big bulky ones that are hard to carry around. It comes with so many features and overall I love my MacBook.

    I have always been a PC person. Always. But I am an iPhone user and thought “why not?” I am loving this machine and it’s portability. The weight is minimal and I found a great case, so I can take it anywhere. The charge lasts a while for me. I had a hard time setting it up at first. Switching everything over was hard, I was afraid of losing all my passwords for internet accounts. After the first day, it was better. There is a learning curve if you’ve never used one, but TOTALLY worth it.

    First of all, this laptop is GORGEOUS. I was nervous at first with it being really small since I have a 16 inch PC but honestly it’s the perfect size. Set up was easy, getting used to it will take a fews days though. Everything works perfect, I didn’t notice it heats up really fast though.. not sure if that’s a good thing or bad but I’ll keep checking on it. Definitely recommend!

    At first I wasn't too sure about buying one because of the price and I wanted to get an HP instead. But I decided to get it anyway over an HP. I am glad I did! its light weight fast and very nice looking and does everything u want in a laptop computer. Its budget friendly for an apple product u get what u pay for. Good for college and school students and anyone who needs a good laptop for work or web surfing. Highly recommend it!

    I’ve had this laptop since March of 2021. Still works perfectly. I would consider this the most reliable laptop I’ve ever owned as well as my first one I’ve ever purchased myself.

    My first Macbook! I’m so excited. It’s super lightweight. I love the simplicity of the design. Great for light duty stuff like browsing the web, Photoshop and etc. I suppose this is the budget friendly Mac. Now bad for under $1,000

    Love my new MacBook Air!

    I love my new MacBook Air, and the Rose Gold is so pretty! My old MacBook Pro was from 2012, and had started to run slow, so I made the choice to upgrade to a new device. The MacBook Air is much lighter, and it is so fast. I ordered online, and it was delivered safely in just a few days. I've had it about a month now, and I'm well pleased. It was so easy to set up that I was up and running in a matter of minutes. Some people shy away from Mac products thinking that they are too expensive, however my previous MacBook Pro was 8 years old before I replaced it with this Air, so I feel that in then long run, these products are cost efficient. I never had a PC to last half that long without issues.

    I’m quite impressed with my new MacBook Air 2020. This is my first Mac computer/laptop. I believe they have a new fan and dedicated Apple customer. This device is very sleek; has beautiful lines...so to speak. Still familiarizing myself with macOS and I’m finding it quite user friendly. Getting help with any issues I’ve had has been quick and easy. Being out of touch with modern tech I was expecting a hard time learning to operate my new Mac but was happy to see that navigating the system was relatively easy. I’ve often heard that Apple products are amongst the best and most beautiful. I think I must agree. Beautiful design and ease of operation have made me a Mac fan for life

    Great laptop! A bit of trial and error (HP to MacBook) but overall best decision was to go with Apple. Biggest decision was IPad Pro or MacBook. Love the size and weight of the MacBook. I thought would really miss a CD drive, but external CD drive to the rescue ( I have used it once in 2 years to retrieve medical records,)

    I’m not sure what I can say about this computer that everyone doesn’t already know but Apple truly is the best when it comes to electronics in my opinion. This laptop is crazy thin and crazy light weight.I bought this computer for my wife so she could finish her degree and she absolutely loves this device.

    Gave 4 because when I first picked it up after 2 days it’s wasn’t working correctly & sounded like it was overheating. That was an inconvenience due to I needed it for Telework from home. The one is doing great. I love how slim, light & the color.

    So far so good. I bought this laptop two weeks before school started for me online. Learned a lot about the laptop before school started and got all my programs installed that I need for school without any issues. Hoping it’s great to me for the next four years.

    I originally bought this a few days before college courses started since all of my classes are online, and I love it. It’s fast, has enough storage, looks nice and is reliable. At first I throughout it would be a little small since I’m used to Macbook Pros, but now I love it!

    It’s so beautiful! I’m obsessed with how pretty it is! However, I’m pretty annoyed at the fact that I need to buy adaptors for my USBs and SD cards; seriously Apple? My previous air is from 2011, perfectly skinny and with all the necessary slots, so yeah, annoying. Other than that though, it’s fast, and matches perfectly with my phone and other Apple products. As much as I say I won’t buy Apple anymore because of the forced updates and extra things you have to buy, I always end up choosing them because I’m not technological and know their products are durable and super easy to use.

    I have been wanting a MacBook for years. I finally bought one. I love it and will never go back to windows. Each thing you open, opens smoothly and fast. I have had no issues. The color is beautiful and the Touch ID is so handy.

    I switched to this MacBook Air from a surface laptop. This computer is so much better because the keyboard isn’t made from cloth for one, further the keys feel amazing when typing on. The trackpad on this MacBook is the best I’ve ever touched because it’s a lot smoother and responsive than any laptop I touched before. Also if you click down it’s a lot quieter than most laptops. The operating system is very efficient since you can text off it, FaceTime, and take phone calls. If you are a student or someone looking to complete online work then this computer will be perfect for you. Also the screen quality on this MacBook is exquisite.
