Using for almost 3 yaars, and wont change any soon. No slow downs, no sign of struggle. Best laptop so far.

Fanless M1 still have many Fans🥰

Let's be honest. Any laptop that has Geekbench 6 scores above 2000/8000 can do all CPU tasks easily. The biggest selling points are the battery life, iPhone synchronization, and light video editing.

I got mine back in 2020 when they first dropped it. Still holding up like a champ for my day-to-day stuff. Dig the sleek design, but kinda bummed they didn't carry it over to the latest MacBook Air. That look is what screams MacBook Air to me.

I own my own consulting business and my M1 Macbook (16gb/1TB) is my main computer for everything I do. I even use it to create training video's and all that goes with running a business that incorporates online and remote interaction. This beast has never let me down and never slows down. I plan to keep it as my main computer until the M5 comes out which will be my next upgrade. Why the M5? Well, I am a Trekkie, so yeah.... Quite the Sci-Fi nerd here. haha!

I recently got a MBA M1 base and it’s such a great value at current discount pricing. I like that the base model has fast SSD compared to M2 and I also like the ergonomics of M1 Air for typing (angle).

Thanks for sharing your experience with the M1 MacBook Air. It sheds a brighter light on many of written review comments, and I also appreciate your accessory recommendations - I’ll definitely look for a Herschel laptop sleeve! Greatly appreciated 👍🏽

Best laptop I’ve ever owned. Handles 4k 144hz with a single USB-C cable and handles all the web browsing, photo + kight video editing, and media consumption that I need without issue. All on 8gb! 😅

[TheBoko]

I bought it 3 months ago; it's a brilliant laptop in terms of ergonomics, a bright display, and the best trackpad I've ever used. I'm wondering how many years M1 the updates will last.

Been using my m1 base mbp since 2021. Still works with everything I need to do for work.

[chachiswar]

Got one when it just came out and I regret nothing, I've actually recommended it to friends who ended up loving it, too. I went from Android to a full Apple ecosystem.

[faithpurselover]

I just bought the M1 in gold at Walmart for $650. I've had it for almost two weeks and I love it!

I got my M1 MB Air in 2022 after long use of my 2012 MBP which worked fine for 10 years - anticipate using my M1 MB Air until 2027-2028 or longer.

iPhone 7 Plus user here & it’s been almost 7 years since I brought my iPhone & trust me, my phone still read my fingerprint perfectly.
The money that I’ve spent all those years ago was and still is worth it.
So I’m planning on buying this Mac this year.
I’m not into video editing and all plus I probably will just either watch videos on YouTube or use this Mac for my studies.
What do you think Rich ?

M1 says-(I am much cheaper than the M3 and faster SSD than the M2–HAHA-I am still the best)

Temple university!!! That very scene was so nostalgic ♥️♥️

[internationaltrailers]

On macos 14.4.1 my m1 air is getting around 14 hrs of Sot from 100 percent with 22 percent of battery still remaining. Also i noticed geekbench scores are much higher with single being 2373 and multicore of 8849. For 699 dollars which is the current price and with this kind of battery life and power this macbook is best laptop for anyone out there.

Love my M1 Air (same colour as yours). Not going to upgrade anytime soon until Apple creates a better Air laptop than the M1. My opinion, this is a perfect laptop.

[SharonAnn]

Using my M1 since 2020. It's an efficient computer for what I use it for. No complaints here. I have the 256gb/16gb model in Rose Gold.
