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.

Powerful, sleek & compact unit...

The 13" MacBook Air M2 is a very portable machine packed with many features and upgrades compared to previous models. It's fast, user friendly, and the setup process was seamless. The screen is high resolution, and I've noticed reduced eye fatigue compared to my previous 2017 model. The MagSafe charger is back, with a stronger connection than before. Would 100% recommend this unit to anyone looking to upgrade.

All around excellent

I was torn between the M2 and M3 MacBooks but decided I wanted to save the $100 and get the M2, since I’m not doing anything too crazy. This really has been such an excellent laptop. My first new Mac in 14 years,the battery lasts a very long time, screen and sound quality are great, comfortable to use. I did have to get an adapter for other ports since it only has USB C but I honestly use it very rarely. Hoping it lasts as long as my previous Mac!

Best value

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2024

I would like to point out how the new MacBook airs have no cooling fans. I was initially worried the MacBook would over heat. However, I have the sims 3 with several packs and it runs flawlessly and barely gets hot. The MacBook is pretty quick to load and the battery life is amazing! The midnight color is beautiful, but just know that it is a finger print magnet. The sound quality is pretty good, I wish they would have kept the speaker grills next to the keyboard though.

Beautiful Design

I upgraded from an MacBook Air M1 model to this new redesign and I am so far very impressed. I usually just use my Mac for Tech videos consumption, email and paying bills. So far the experience has been amazing computer runs very fast, has a compact design that allows me to travel easier with it and the color is my favorite I have ever had in a MacBook.

Great product

Bought for my daughter and she absolutely loves it. She has told me multiple times on different occasions how much she loves her laptop. She’s in college and makes it so easy for her to take notes, sync to her phone, etc.

Brilliant...

machine! This thing is amazing! I've been working off my phone and/or iPad for so long, and have been needing a REAL computer. Picture, sound, versatility, battery life, and so on, are all top notch! Having been an iPhone and iPad user for quite some time, this MacBook Air was/is super easy to learn. I'm very happy with this purchase, and the price was outstanding as well!

Powerful and Sleek Laptop with Minor Drawbacks

Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2024

The 2022 Apple MacBook Air with the M2 chip is a powerful and sleek laptop, boasting impressive performance and efficiency. The 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display delivers vibrant and sharp visuals, making it ideal for both professional and personal use. The 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB SSD provide smooth multitasking and ample storage for most users.

Key features include a backlit keyboard for comfortable typing in low light, and a 1080p FaceTime HD camera that ensures clear video calls. The laptop's design is lightweight and portable, perfect for on-the-go productivity.

However, the 256 GB storage might be limiting for users who require extensive storage space for large files or applications. Additionally, while the M2 chip offers significant performance improvements, users upgrading from recent models may not notice a dramatic difference.

Overall, the MacBook Air 2022 with the M2 chip is an excellent choice for those seeking a high-performance, stylish laptop with advanced features, though it might not be the best fit for heavy storage needs.
