5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute workhorse Mac
Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2024
Was in an immediate pinch when my DJ laptop finally crapped out on me (early 2013 MacBook Air). It was bogged down running dj software and interacting with hard drives for music and running a web browser in the background and could not keep up for the life of it…. Poof, she finally went.

In comes this newest model MacBook Air and by god she’s screaming’ fast. I was able to run dj software, have a web browser open, interact with a 5TB SSD with over 75,000 songs on it, stream music options through the DJ Software and have the DJ software analyze songs for BPMs, Key, and Stems (a new technology that can Remove vocals, beats, instruments, etc) without ANY ISSUES AT ALL.

My first Mac was only a 13in but this 15in screen is well worth the size and space for multitasking and just overall Home Screen space. I just got it a couple of days ago (at the time of writing this) but the battery life is no joke and the entire laptop just looks amazing and sleek. I do love how smooth the laptop opens and closes and it’s not heavy at all. If you’re not interested in Windows then I do recommend this. It serves all my purposes functionality wise when it comes to music edits, cutting, mixing and DJing.

The one thing I’m not entirely a fan of is the material the laptop is made of because it seems to mark up with smudges a lot easier but nothing a quick techwipe won’t fix!

If you’re interested in speed, reliability, functionality, high tech features and more, look no further!

The glass on my prior MacBook Pro broke. Not worth replacing since the laptop was more than five years old. When I went to purchase a new MacBook Pro, I learned that Apple eliminated the 15" screen on the new MacBook Pros (I think this was dumb). The 13.4" is too small and the 17" is way too big and heavy. The salesperson at a retail store suggested I look at the MacBook Air (Caveat: I do not do any heavy graphics, animation, editing or video/photo work), so the M3 Chip, 16GB, 512GB is more than adequate. I was able to purchase this 15.3" Laptop with 3 years of Apple Care at $300.00 less than the retail store. This is a terrific laptop for everything. I don't do any video or editing, so your needs may be different. But I constantly run Acrobat Pro, Excel, Word, and other programs simultaneously and it is fast. The screen is terrific, it has built-in retina display and the images are super crisp. I watch movies on this laptop and I have no issues with the display. If you are needing a new MacBook and the price of the new MacBook Pros made your eyes water, I highly recommend the MacBook Air.

My previous Macbook was the 13" 2012 Pro 750GB; it lasted 8 1/2 years before breaking down beyond reasonable repair. I was financially challenged to replace with another Apple product, so I went for the more budget friendly pc line. Fast forward to today, I was ready to come back to my true love, and with the Black Friday deals from Amazon ($1419.00), I now have a well-built machine that should be good for another 8+ years. I'm a middle school math teacher, so this product's specs are in the "just right" catagory. Love the ease of use and streamlined user interface. Love the sound this produces. Love the 15" screen real estate which makes for a better multi-tasking experience. And overall, love how this Macbook Air fits into my life!

After receiving my new Macbook, I ended up investing in the Apple Care+ yearly subscription for peace of mind.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love this Laptop; but its so pricey...
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2024
I've owned many, many laptops over the years and while they all keep getting a bit better with each new generation, this one is near perfect. It's faster than most desktops, easy to use with a very bright and gorgeous color screen. The keyboard is a huge improvement on my previous Macs and I really like the "Midnight" color. The battery life is the best of any laptop I've ever owned. That said, you ought to expect a lot from a laptop that will push $2000 when you add in AppleCare and taxes. The latest versions of MacOS are pretty intuitive to get started, but becoming a "power user" still requires familiarity with UNIX-derived inline commands, hand-entered through a terminal window. Why that's still necessary in 2024 is a little hard to understand...
