Beautiful product, very happy with the performance with 24gb RAM. Smooth performance editing RAW photos without much heating up in long editing sessions, and the 15” display is the perfect size for the job.
Super slim and tough. I applied an invisible skin that adds protection against scratches and prints that showcases the beautiful design without the possibility of damage that comes with hard shell cases
Battery life is also amazing, even with the screen at full brightness editing RAW. I recommend with any device to never overcharge so the battery stays as healthy as possible!

Graphics and speed is amazing. Had trouble loading the Microsoft 365 but only due to having it on a previous MacBook. Fingerprint security is a cool feature.

The Apple MacBook Air 15” 24gb ram with 512gb storage solved my mobile laptop requirements. The unit is extremely fast with the M3 chip. Most satisfied.

I’ve been using the 15-inch MacBook Air with the M3 chip, 24GB unified memory, and 512GB SSD for about 6 months now, and I couldn’t be happier. As a software engineer who juggles coding, video calls, and occasional creative work, this machine has exceeded expectations in both performance and portability.
The M3 chip is impressively fast — apps open instantly, multitasking is smooth even with multiple browser tabs, IDEs, and virtual machines running. The 24GB RAM upgrade is well worth it for anyone doing heavier workloads or planning to future-proof their device.
The 15-inch screen hits a sweet spot — more room for work without compromising on portability. It’s incredibly thin and light for its size, and the Space Gray finish looks professional and modern.
Battery life is phenomenal. I regularly get through a full day of work on a single charge. And despite the fanless design, the MacBook Air stays cool and quiet even under pressure.
If you’re looking for a premium laptop that’s fast, silent, and reliable, this MacBook Air M3 is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended for professionals and power users alike.

The MacBook Air 15-inch with the M3 chip is a game-changer. Apple took everything great about the MacBook Air and leveled it up with a larger screen, more power, and insane efficiency.
The display is stunning—sharp, vibrant, and perfect for working, streaming, or editing. The M3 chip is a beast. Multitasking with demanding apps is effortless, and the laptop stays cool and quiet even under pressure. The 24GB of memory and 512GB SSD combo ensures you’ll have more than enough space and speed for whatever you throw at it.
The midnight color is sleek and modern, though it does pick up fingerprints a bit. Battery life is stellar, easily lasting a full workday and beyond. The build quality feels premium, lightweight enough for travel but sturdy enough to handle serious productivity.
Overall, this MacBook Air feels like a pro-level laptop wrapped in an ultra-portable design. It’s the best MacBook Air yet—powerful, stylish, and future-proof. Highly recommend!

The MacBook Air M3 15-inch with 512GB SSD and 24GB RAM in Space Black is the perfect choice for students and travelers, offering a blend of performance, portability, and style. Its sleek design and lightweight build make it easy to carry around campus or during travel, while the powerful M3 chip can handle multitasking and efficient handling of demanding applications. The 15 inch is perfect for studying and streaming thanks to the bigger screen size, though it’s not the mini LED from the MacBook Pro, for normal people this is all you’ll need in a screen. However, the laptop does have some drawbacks, such as a limited number of ports, which might require additional adapters for connectivity, and its performance, while impressive, doesn’t quite match up to the MacBook Pro’s capabilities for heavy-duty tasks like video rendering, mainly because this laptop has no fans. But that’s the whole reason I feel like this laptop is the perfect one for students and travelers, you have no worries of debris, clogging the fans, or having to worry about cleaning out the fans in a few years. It’s a laptop that you can use on your bed, on a dusty table, or literally anywhere else. Despite these minor limitations, the MacBook Air M3 excels in battery life, lasting over 15 hours on a single charge, making it through long days without a second charge. The combination of its robust performance, exceptional battery life, and elegant design makes it an excellent investment for students and digital nomads seeking a reliable and stylish laptop that can handle everyday tasks with ease.

Amazing, everything i ever wanted within a thin framed laptop. Weight, speed and design met expectations. Only 2 small downsides is the audio 3.5mm port, maybe that could've been used for something else. Also the 60hz internal display could be improved, should be at least 90-120hz.

This is my very first Mac. I have been dreaming of having one for very long time. It have been amazing. It took a while for me to get used to it but no lagging anymore. I run PS with large RAW files, open few tabs in Safari. So Smooth! I thought I would throw my Dell out and never go back to it until the Mac locked a pdf. I was filling a gov. form and once it was saved, it became a locked pdf and if I close the file, it requires passwords. There is no way I would know the passwords about it. Besides, your old window hard drive cannot be used unless you install some paid software to make it work. You probably also need to buy a port converter cuz Mac is so light that it only has 2 USB-C ports. I believe all Win user not only need USB 2 or 3 as standart but also need few ports for SD card. I give up using my mouse already since it is not wireless. Luckily trackpad is better. Get a wireless earphone too if that is the setup. Lastly, the screen require special care like a microfiber cloth. For me, it is not worth it to buy applecare so I use it with mind of care. Mac is like a picky intelligent friend who is also fragile. Even if it is so picky, I still love its smart core. which I will provide my extra care for. Overall, it is an expensive switch but so worth it.

Happy I chose this larger MacBook Air with greater memory. I came from an older PowerBook - and this is quite the upgrade. First of all, transferring files from my old computer was easy. That's a huge win. the graphics are crisp, the keyboard feels great, and everything moves quickly. I love using my fingerprint to unlock the screen.

I’ve been using the new MacBook Air 15-inch with the M3 and 24GB of RAM for a few weeks now, and I can confidently say it’s an absolute game changer.
First off, the speed is incredible. Everything runs so smoothly and instantly—whether I’m working with large files, multitasking across multiple apps, or even editing video, the performance never skips a beat. The M3 chip is lightning fast and incredibly efficient.
What I love just as much is the ease of use. From the moment you open the lid, everything just works. The setup was effortless, macOS is intuitive as ever, and even switching between work and personal tasks feels seamless. Apple’s ecosystem really shines here.
And honestly? It’s just fun to use. The 15-inch screen gives you so much space without feeling bulky. It’s lightweight, beautifully designed, and just a joy to carry around and use anywhere. Whether I’m working, streaming, or just browsing, it’s a pleasure every time I open it.
If you’re considering an upgrade or switching to Mac, I can’t recommend the MacBook Air M3 (15”) enough. It’s fast, user-friendly, and a genuinely enjoyable tool to have in your everyday life.

Great Computer.
Was debating between the Air and Pro.
Decided on Air...I have had a pro for 10 years and was unhappy about the weight. Now with everything being on Google (docs, slides, etc.) the air will have plenty of memory and speed for all of my needs.
