256GB is barely enough for the OS plus an OS update, nobody should buy this from Apple, let them eat the cost for putting out computers with minuscule storage.

While I agree that 256GB is pretty small, let's stop with the exaggerations. The macOS takes up no more than 30GB (I think it takes 23GB) and the largest OS upgrade is probably 35GB. That's basically a 1/4 of the drive space. Not "barely enough".

Community Reviews

This 15.3 inch MacBook Air stands out as a lightweight everyday laptop with a big screen, strong keyboard, and solid build quality. The M4 chip and 16GB of memory make it appealing for web browsing, email, iMessage, FaceTime, and web apps, and the Costco price has been seen as low as $799.97 in store. The main drawback is the 256GB SSD, which fills up quickly for heavier storage needs. For buyers who want more room or plan to game, the nearby M5 and 512GB options keep coming up as the better fit.

  • The 256GB SSD can be sufficient for typical web browsing and communication apps after macOS updates.

    aLazyLemming

  • The 15-inch screen size and keyboard are described as strong for everyday typing and work-in-web-apps use.

    aLazyLemming

  • The build quality is described as strong for a MacBook Air in this price range.

    aLazyLemming

  • The deal value may improve if the price drops to $799.97 instead of $899.95.

    bennaimd

  • The 256GB configuration can fill up faster than expected for some users' storage needs.

    ComoEstanPinches

  • The 256GB SSD can be limiting for modern storage expectations at around the $900 price point.

    Denigrate

  • The 256GB SSD can be considered too small for OS updates by some shoppers evaluating the configuration.

    CharlesBarkley

  • The in-store-only availability can limit purchase options compared with online or other store channels.

Where'd you get the m5 from? $250 more or about 20 ish percent for more storage and 15-30% better performance seems worth it to me

Keep what you've got. If this was $800 then yeah but 256gb storage is very limiting. For my case I rather have more storage than RAM. I was able to snag an open box last night Air M5 16/512 for $916 at Best Buy.

It is a ludicrously small amount storage for a device selling for $899.97 on a "deal". Great device and deal except for that.

Whoops misread the comment above. 13 inch vs this 15 inch so they're in different classes. That said the 13" M5 512GB is great deal but this 15 at 256GB is a good clearance value and echoing what others are saying that the 256GB fills up quicker than you think
