Excellent product

Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024

Ordered my first MacBook Air. I chose the 13.6 space grey. It came in excellent condition. It’s fast and will be ideal for college and office work. Can’t go wrong with Apple quality.

Best laptop purchase I've made in a long while

Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2024

My last Apple laptop was a 2017 MBP 13". This MBA 13" M3 is a transcendent improvement over that device. The fanless design ensures quiet operation, and I have yet to notice any thermal slow down in my day to day use of the device.

I find the updated 13" screen to be a vast improvement, even with the dreaded 'notch'. Just that extra little bit of vertical height provides an excellent aspect ratio and amount of space for working with documents and multiple windows.

Other notable improvements: battery life is much superior, the device is super portable and lightweight, and the midnight finish is downright beautiful (even if keeping it clean requires a bit more work).

My only wish is that the keyboard was quieter and more similar to the updated M-series MBPs. However, the laptop is still a joy to type on.

Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase, and Amazon had great service and fast delivery as always.

Great value and exceeded expectations!

Amazon did it again! Shopping for an Apple Macbook and Amazon's price was the best! Black Friday shopping couldn't have been easier... got the best deal and delivery time exceeded my expectations. The Macbook Air 13" laptop came beautifully packaged, was easy to set up and works like a charm!
After buying so many apple products, I am still so dazzled by how well Apple products are designed and the ease of use.
Could not be happier!

Great laptop, too small for my workflow

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2024

Objectively speaking, the M3 16 gb ram w/ 512 storage is a 5-star computer all day, so I am giving 5-stars.

This is a great device, but everyone already knows that, so I am focusing on two big considerations that I had - specs and size. I am just a layperson who primarily uses this device for office work.

In sum, wish I could keep this one, but it's just too small. This size is will be great for many users. Further, I will not ever buy a base model (8/256), but many people would probably be fine with base model.

Specs-

I originally bought a base model M2 (8/256) but swapped it out for the M3 16/512. With a brand new base model M2, I was constantly using memory swap and in yellow memory pressure. This happened immediately and took almost nothing. In addition, I only had ~80 gb of memory left after MacOS, iMessage, etc. took up most of the space on my hard-drive. I spent 2 days trouble-shooting this issue with Apple - turns out my only real option was to spec up. I bought the base model thinking I would be okay since I use cloud based services for everything. I was wrong. For ME, the super savings on the base model are NOT worth it. The savings will be worth it for other people with different needs and preferences. (And, again, I am a just layperson w/ tech. Just trying to share my lay opinion from my experience. Take with grain of salt.)

Size-

I actually love the size of the 13-inch, but for my work use, the screen is just too small. I use this laptop for work and personal, but my workflow is the most important consideration. I tend to multitask and juggle multiple word processing documents, pdfs, excel spreadsheets, and internet browser tabs. I also use split screen. I just cannot see enough text at once when I review documents - this causes decreased productivity and a far less comfortable experience.

So, I have to size up to the 15-inch. If this was JUST a personal laptop, I would keep the 13-inch and absolutely love it.

Also, I went to a store and tested out both sizes before purchasing, but that did not help me. Unfortunately, I had to test drive with my actual workflow before I realized the 13-inch was insufficient for my needs.

Oh, one other thing. I love the midnight color. But all the fingerprint concerns are 100% legit (even with the M3, which I really did not notice the supposed improvement). I happen to find the beautiful color to be worth the fingerprints, but if that bothers you - do not buy midnight.

Good luck, everyone!

I purchased this MacBook for my freshman. He uses it every day says it’s still as great screen, quality and functionality area, but definitely purchased one for myself and the time comes.

Absolutely worth it. You wont regret it.

It is a game changer for lightweight laptops. Powered by m3, it delivers impressive speed, very efficient and enhanced graphics, making multi tasking seamless. It has stunned liquid retina display with vibrant colors. The battery last up to 18hrs and it is ideal for on-the-go use. This is definitely worth it!!!
