    • Absolutely wonderful little laptop
Color: Silver Set: Without AppleCare+
This little laptop is SO good. The keyboard feels phenomenal, I cannot tell there are any pixels on the screen, and the battery has never died on me. The screen was weird, but since it was under warranty Apple replaced it for free. The build quality is excellent. The solid metal construction simply cannot be broken under normal use. It's great for school and home use. The only issue with gaming is that it overheats, and of course, not very many games are available on the Mac, so not the computer's fault. This is a 10/10 laptop would recommend it to anyone else looking for a small, portable, and powerful laptop. Speaking of power, this thing FLIES. It handles any task I throw at it. I tried video editing the other day, and it handles my 4K timeline so easily. Final rating: Build quality: 10/10 Keyboard: 10/10 Display: 10/10 Gaming: 8/10 Performance: 10/10 ... show more

    • Great battery life, great performance!
Color: Space Gray Set: Without AppleCare+
UPDATE 3/8/2023: i bought parallels desktop and a windows 11 license. I need it to try a certain amount of things in IT, however, the performance when running windows in a virtualized environment (like parallels is) it gets seriously affected on the M1, something that didn't happen with intel processors. You notice the performance degrading (but not that much, maybe 10, or even 15% i risk to say) when switching between full screens and main desktop with windows (full separate screen, remember that there's an option to seamlessly integrate within your macOS). You kinda feel the stutter but i can see the M1 processor get in the way and prioritize the screen, and that's a good thing to re-prioritize tasks that are being done in one screen or another (take the word "screen" as full-screen apps or software that switches between desktop and full-screen apps or between apps). In my case, running windows 11 makes the mbp m1 run hotter than i'm really use to, but it does not affect battery performance as much as i expected!... weird, isn't it?... love it! If you're going to virtualize something, that isn't Windows, you shouldn't worry that much on this laptop. Just remember that's still have 8gb ram and usable 228gb, therefore, performance wouldn't be the same as bare metal. Still, other regular software from apple or safari (or any other browser), Office365, Adobe XD, Photoshop do not affect performance nor consume that much battery, although if you are a graphic designer or a photographer making a quick change could make you brighten your screen, in which may lead to higher power consumption, which also could be confused by software running. One bad thing that i found with heavy usage is that the keyboard gets "oily", meaning, it wears in time and amount of usage per day; funny enough, the aluminum part of the palm rest don't have any signs of wear. Another thing that i found is that the left speaker sounds like it broke when hearing at 70% volume, i don't know if that's fixable or not, anywho anyhow... i'm gonna stick with that because i rarely use it. One thing that i've also found is how i got used to the fact that this mbp m1 takes nothing to return from suspended state, why? Because no matter what other laptop i use (or desktop, for that matter), all of them takes a few seconds to access to their respective desktops and another few seconds to actually be productive (after booting software)... This one literally takes nothing to wake and start using it... that's why i'm not changing this laptop... and yes, even with its flaws... why? because in critical cases when i need to go somewhere and fast react to do something at work, i just do it! it takes me 0 seconds to wake up the mbp and enter another desktop via anydesk or teamviewer or ssh... this takes time on most windows laptops... i love it! I just wish this laptop was upgradeable... after all at the end of the day, it makes my life so useful and convenient despite the down side of it... what a masterpiece! i just wish i could do more and more with it, i feel limited... but happy! and by the way, i still stand on my original review. ORIGINAL: I believe i've found my unicorn because this particular macbook air still lasts an insane amount of time! Although i don't use it on full brightness, i regulate it a lot. Connecting several devices to it via bluetooth is transparent, but unfortunately, Apple made the macOS more inconvenient to handle in terms of simplicity. User experience on the macOS is weird, you know as a mac user where things used to be, then you have to relearn some things and it doesn't feel like home, the new normal isn't good so far. Keyboard is relatively quiet, also, there's the missing keyboard light on this iteration of the macbook air, why did you take (probably) the most useful key from us?! if you're watching a movie you have to literally stop the movie, go through the menu from above and turn off the keyboard lights, or if you're on a presentation and everything is dark, you just turn your screen light down but you can't with your keyboard because you need to actually stop paying attention to the presentation and go through the menu, inconvenient as heck! I know (and i'm very well aware) that there are some workarounds to change to the keyboard light again using a small software... but that isn't the end-game, the thing is that we shouldn't need an extra software or aditional configuration just to use something the macbook had for, literally, over 10 years! Speed on this macbook: you don't even feel it... everything is instant, nothing is slow, if something is, it's most likely the software or the website you're on, is that simple! If you're planning on using massive storage, you should use an usb-c one, not an usb-a through usb-c dongle, you will have a bottleneck, that's guaranteed. I haven't used it on games because that's why i have my pc and xbox for. However, if you're planning on developing software on it, just make sure your libraries fit within 228gb (the half of it is recommended for all ssd's) of storage, if that's gonna be an issue, then go for usb-c massive storage. Weight isn't a problem, it makes you feel like you're having a premium laptop on your hands, but not enough to make your bag heavier. Construction feels like you own something premium and well-made. ... show more

    • Great replacement (for a Surface Pro 9!)
Color: Space Gray Set: Without AppleCare+
I had been a Mac user for years, but then got interested in the Microsoft Surface line, and bought the Pro 6 model a few years back. I liked it well enough, despite finding that I really didn't use the convertible capabilities of that device very often -- I found it to be too heavy to use as a proper tablet, and it also didn't function very well as a true "laptop." I "upgraded" a few months back to the Surface Pro 9, and found it to actually be a downgrade. Main issues being: no noticeable improvements in performance or display quality, and the VERY noisy fan would be screaming almost constantly during normal usage. Also, the battery life was absolutely abysmal. I finally got fed-up, noticed that there were great deals to be had on the M1 MacBook Air, and thought `why not?' SO glad I gave it a try! I notice absolutely no performance difference between either of the Surface models I owned, and it runs quiet -- because there is NO fan to make any noise. In my experience so far the unit does not overheat, either. And the kicker: battery life is absolutely amazing. As in: seemingly unkillable. It just goes and goes, for hours of normal usage. I love it. With the Surface, I wouldn't even consider taking anywhere to work, without a power supply. Now I wouldn't hesitate to take my MacBook and I bet I could work all day at a remote location without plugging in. As far as being back in the Apple/Mac ecosystem: meh. I'm surprised how little MacOS has NOT changed since I lasted was a user, and also how kinda underwhelming it is. But in 2023 do different flavors of operating system really matter? Nope. Once you open a browser it simply doesn't matter. I'm getting used to hitting the "Apple" key again, but that's not a big deal. Overall, very happy. The MacBook is a solid choice, and I'm glad I just got the Air over the Pro -- I have no need for the larger screen nor the premium performance, and the M1 Air is a major bargain right now. ... show more
