Great laptop, easy to use and very quick.
We purchased this MacBook for my son as a Christmas gift, it is a great laptop. It does everything we require and is easy to use, the new M1 chip is faster than my daughters 2019 MacBook Pro. We are extremely happy with our purchase and it came very quickly when we purchased it online.

Fantastic Service from the Good Guys - service was amazing
Impressively fast
I am very happy with my new MacBook Air. I upgraded from early 2015 MacBook Pro and cant believe how responsive and quick it runs with the new M1 chip, web pages for example load in the blink of an eye! It has a beautiful screen with rush colours, nice keyboard feeling and great sound with a 3D feeling. Great machine powerful enough to handle all everyday computing needs.

This computer is fast with a clear screen great colours and easy key board
Great product, great service
A lovely piece of hardware, fast, easy to use, easy-to-read screen, a track-pad to die for, and a really comfortable keyboard. With the M1 chip, it will stay relevant for quite a few years. Price was good, and I couldn't fault The Good Guys' 'buy-on-line - pickup in the car park' service.

Great laptop. Lightweight and user-friendly. Would be good to have a touchscreen, however not a deal breaker.
Apple MacBook Air 13-inch: Apple M1 Chip with 8 Core CPU and 7 Core GPU 256GB storage - Space Grey MGN63X/A review
In a week of testing, I have pushed this computer and its new Apple-made processor to its limits and found that those limits exceeded my expectations on nearly every level.- Fast
- Intel-based apps work well
- Excellent battery life
- Awful webcam
- iOS apps are a whiff
- It’s time to admit Macs would be better with touchscreens

The M1-equipped MacBook Air now packs far better performance than its predecessors, rivaling at times the M1-based MacBook Pro. At $999, it’s the best value among macOS laptops.- Good value
- especially for a MacBook
- Much-improved performance
- thanks to Apple’s new M1 processor
- Exceptional battery life
- Sleek
- portable metal design
- High-quality keyboard
- touchpad
- and display
- Multiple color options

Apple MacBook Air 13-inch: Apple M1 Chip with 8 Core CPU and 7 Core GPU 256GB storage - Space Grey MGN63X/A review
With the 13-inch MacBook Pro already upping the ante, the new M1-based MacBook Air really throws down the gauntlet for rival ultraportable laptops. It might seem expensive for an entry-level offering, but the performance of the M1 chip gives the late 2020 MacBook Air a new lease of life.- Speedy M1 SoC
- Outstanding battery life
- Rosetta 2 emulation works well with Intel-native apps
- Slimline
- lightweight design
- Design is looking a bit dated
- No CPU upgrade options
- Expensive RAM and storage upgrades
- Only two Thunderbolt ports

Were Charles Darwin here today, once he’d finished screaming at us for tinkering with necromancy and demanding to know what the heck a Lexus was, I think he’d want to see the new MacBook Air.- Apple M1 is astonishingly fast
- Excellent battery life
- Compatibility with non-native apps is impressive
- 720p webcam is still underwhelming
- Lack of an embedded 4G/5G option is frustrating
