The 11” Air was one of my all time favorite laptops and the 12” rMB was such a great replacement.

The 2015 11" Air was the best performance / value macbook Apple has ever made.

Still using mine. It's great. I'm gonna be really sad when it falls out of the supported lineup.

Mine was a 2010 base model, but by 2015 I had grown weary of it's limitations.

The form factor was just amazing, and even though the Core2Duo CPU wasn't anything special, with the SSD (at the time, they weren't very common) it was still a very usable machine. The battery life was my biggest complaint, only about 4 hours, and they didn't fix that until 2014.

I can't imagine being on an airplane with anything but my trusty MacBook. Thinking of picking up a refurb one now to replace my 2 year old version.

I also have a 13 MacBook Pro which I haven't touched in over a year.

My work machine is a 2018 13" Pro. Its not that I don't like it - it simply isn't a joy to use like my 12".

100%. Macbook has been my daily machine for 3 years now, love this little thing. Quite disappointed there's no option under 2 lbs anymore.

Same, to me the only feature I missed was TouchID.
