    5.0 out of 5 stars Love this computer
    Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2024
    I bought the Apple 2022 MacBook Air with the M2 chip two weeks ago, and I was pleasantly surprised at the price. I primarily use it for web browsing and software development, and I don't have many programs on it. Setting it up was seamless, especially since I have other Apple products. I encountered no issues during the setup.

    The Midnight color looks fantastic and is the best quality Air I've ever used. The display and sound are great. While I haven't tried video processing, the M2 chip performs wonderfully. It's noticeably faster than my Mac mini with the M1 chip. I love the size and weight; it's perfect for bringing to the coffee shop. It also seems more durable than my girlfriend's 2020 Air.

    The battery lasts at least 8 hours on a single charge, and I can use it at work for a significant portion of the day without needing to recharge. The new charging port style secures via a magnet, which works fine, though it could be a bit stronger.

    Overall, I'm thrilled with the price, especially since I've never had a Mac under $1,000. I'm very happy with this purchase and give it 5 stars.

    This is amazing. The athletic is amazing and the thinness is unparalleled, I love the MagSafe charging. The m2 chip is speedy and is super snappy, it can handle everything. The battery is noticeably long on it also. The most surprising is the speaker sound quality, I was not expecting the amazing quality from this slim computer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Balance of Power and Portability
    Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2024
    The MacBook Air M2 with 16GB RAM is an outstanding laptop. It handles multitasking and demanding tasks like video editing effortlessly. The battery life is exceptional, easily lasting a full day, and the lightweight design makes it perfect for on-the-go use.

    The Liquid Retina display is stunning, and the keyboard and trackpad are top-notch. While the limited ports require an adapter for peripherals, the overall performance, sleek design, and future-proofing make this a fantastic investment. Highly recommend!

    This is my first MacBook and I really like. It's by far the most well built laptop I've ever had. It's fast and the graphics are pretty good. Learning the functions of Mac OS isn't too bad if you've worked with Linux at all. Overall I would recommend it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Well built, portable, aesthetically pleasing
    Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2024
    I needed a laptop to separate work from personal activities. I thought about getting a Chromebook, but the ones reported to have better build quality were almost as expensive as Windows and Mac laptops. When the MacBook Air M2 went on clearance sale, I jumped on it. I use a MacBook for work, so it is a plus not having to keep two systems in mind. I had seen concerns in reviews about 8 GB memory being insufficient, but I find it very responsive for my light use: email, web browsing, some word processing and watching videos. I don't play video games or do video editing. The screen is nice and big enough for me, and the keyboard has a nice solid feel. Battery life is more than good enough for a machine that I mostly use at home.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Literally just buy this. I’m a teacher and I have to have a dependable laptop.
    Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2024
    The size is a perfect fit for my work bag. I bought this for my job, constant training online classes and zoom. The battery life is excellent. I can go two days without charging. The power up speed is faster than I expected. The ease of being able to switch between different screens is mind blowing.
    I honestly used to buy cheap laptops and considered them after 2 years disposable.
    Now that I’ve finally bought a MacBook Air I will probably never buy anything else again.

    4.0 out of 5 stars One notch from perfection
    Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2024
    This is what I describe as a "chill laptop". It's the reliable, ageless device you park next to your couch and cruise the inter webs on, the computer that transitions to a DJ machine for a party, the one you grab when you need to do some serious professional work. It does it all, it's snappy and the battery life makes you wonder why you ever had to charge a laptop before. Did I mention there isn't any fan noise? It's fantastic.

    All of the basics are covered on top of that, speakers are great, keyboard is great, screen is great. This is how Apple makes great devices, by nailing the basics. Mac OS feels limited, but ultimately is a just an adjustment period if you're coming from windows. Most apps and programs work, but make sure before you buy this laptop, as MacOS tends to have some extra hoops to jump through. You can game but it entirely depends what game you're playing and if it's compatible. This is the biggest thing, you need to be slightly tech savvy to get Windows and apps running. Apple wants you to use their apps, which are greatly optimized.

    The only real negative is the notch, if it bothers you and the soldered components that are non-upgradeable. I'm not going to get into debates on how much RAM you need but I've never needed more than 8gb for years now and never experience slow down. I also only live in 3 - 5 browser tabs and close down programs I'm not using. If you're cruising the web and using basic apps this computer will easily last you 4 - 5 years and be better than anything on the market. Not to mention the awesome resale value of Macs.
