Apple MacBook Air user reviews (13-inch, Summer 2012)

Pros Looks cool and is fast until it breaks...

Cons My machine is just a bit more than one year old and I have to replace the Logic Board that will cost me $400! This hardware is very poor.

Summary Don't buy this junk... or if you do, better get the warranty.

Pros It is super fast and looks great - also feels awesome to use. Also continues Apple's easy to use theme.

Cons the lack of disk drive is highly annoying, and when your spending this much on a laptop you'd expect this most basic of features

Summary It looks and feels great, however compare it to the latest macbook pro then for the same price you get the same features and great looks but also a disk drive - it seems a no brainer to me

Pros Design, low weight and slim
Mac OS Mountain Lion with its best UI
Performance

Cons Price and initially I got it with an un-functional trackpad which had to be replaced (after 2 weeks!!)
Sometimes overheats easily

Summary Great piece of Tech :)

Pros Battery life
Performance (solid state drive plus Ivy Bridge = success)
"Sexy" factor

Cons Small hard drive

Summary I picked up the base Macbook Air yesterday. I also have last year's MBPro and 2009 MB. I wasn't too impressed with the battery life on prior Air models. The Ivy Bridge processor appears to be worth the wait. Battery life is improved, internet is sooo fast and, most importantly, I have not seen the spinning rainbow yet! Seriously, does it still exist?!? Or is this cpu just what we've all been waiting for? A computer that seamlessly performs several tasks at once?

So far, I'm impressed. I'll update my review if something changes.
