Customer Ratings & Reviews

I upgraded from my 2nd generation iPad. One too many updates for the old iPad. The iPad Air 2 is fluid and fast. Much thinner and lighter than previous models.

I love it. The size is perfect and is light. Great pictures and vídeos . I am pleased with my purchase.

As a former owner /user of Apple's iPad 2 (A5 Arm Processor), this upgrade is worth it for a number of reasons including 1) the new A8 processor is noticeably faster, especially on video and graphics intensive streaming websites (ie: CNBC App) 2) noticeably lighter and thinner in your hands (buy a protective Smart Cover / case (ie: from eBay, etc) 3) supports Siri (note: Apple did not support Siri on iPad2.. Probably to motivate people, like me, to upgrade ;-) 4) bonus: IOS 8.1.2 on an iPhone + iPad supports integrated SMS texting. As long as your iPad is on the same wifi network, your iPad can send and receive SMS text messages (using your iPhone also on iOS 8.1.2). Additionally, your iPad can send and receive phone calls, again, provided you have enabled this feature on your iPhone with iOS 8.1.2 and both are on the same wifi network (ie: in your home or office). 5) new finger print sensor, capable of supporting up to 5 different finger prints (ie: from the same or multiple people) is a secure time saver, especially useful when unlocking your iPad Air 2 or purchasing an app from Apple's AppStore. 6) don't even think about getting the 16GB version. Minimum usable size = 64GB 7) new 802.11ac wifi support (not available on other iPad models) enables much faster download bandwidth. Based on Comcast / Xfinity Boost wifi service + 802.11ac enabled router, I get download speeds in excess of 125Mbps and upload speeds in excess of 15Mbps supporting smooth video streaming especially when you have a household of streaming devices. Recommendation: although iOS 8.1.2 can be jailbroken, I have found it is not a good idea for a couple of reasons including 1) jailbraking the iOS often disables certain Apps (ie: streaming apps in particular, like TiVo and CNBC) from operating correctly. 2) jailbraking undermines the security that Apple has incorporated into the iOS. With such things as one-touch finger print security, iPad unlock and Apple Pay now supported, why would you want to undermine security by installing software that hasn't been verified by Apple on your brand new iPad Air 2?

I got a good trade in from Best Buy on my gen 3 and upgraded to the latest and greatest - better, faster, smaller, lighter. The most impressive thing so far was how fast and easy it was to recover all my settings, data, apps, etc. during the setup. Everything went flawlessly. All my old apps were even placed in the exact same locations.

I upgraded from the original iPad 2 to the iPad Air 2. The iPad Air 2 is much slimmer, lighter, and easier to hold than the iPad 2. The stability of it is awesome! I know the newest one will be coming out soon, but Best Buy had a sale on the 64gb gold version for $499 instead of $599 so I jumped on it! Besides I was due for an upgrade anyway since the last upgrade I had was an iPad mini 2 with Retina display.

I had a 3rd generation 16gb iPad and was very satisfied with it but I really wanted a 32gb and with the Air 2 coming out not only was it great timing but I was able to get 64gb for the same price as a 32gb when Apple had the 32gb. I truly like the minor updates of it being lighter and thinner. This purchase was simply more of an upgrade for me as I do trust this product.

I bought an Apple - iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi 64GB - Gold from Best Buy. It's an excellent product to use. Touch of this iPad Air2 and high quality of videos is excellent. I am enjoying playing games, reading books and listening songs. It having such a wonderful front and back camera which is better than many digi cam. Never got any kind of issue since using last two months.

Love my iPad. Lots of memory and fast retrieval makes using this iPad enjoyable. It's slim and fairly light weight, fits my bag easily. Highly recommend.

Completely satisfied with all the new features. It's faster, lighter, and easier to hold than my original iPad 2. Love the new gold color and it was easy to set up. The thumb print is a little temperamental but catching on with the placement. I would be happy to recommend it to anyone. My neighbor just bought one too. We're enjoying it together.

The iPad Air 2's performance is excellent. Great quality, retina display is stunning, and sound is amazingly loud and robust. It is very light and comfortable to handle. Definitely would recommend it.

This is my 3rd iPad over the years and this one by far out performs any of the others! I have never been more pleased with an iPad as I am now!

I started with an original iPad, then on to iPad 2, then iPad Air and now iPad air2. At th ag of 75, talked several girlfriend into them and then taught them how to use them. Now we keep busy playing games from different part of the country. Love the apps from excel to games. Have all my recipes in files as well as pictures and business. My previous iPad handed down to hubby of 55 year and adult children :-)

This a great device, the performance and overall aspects in the product makes my life much easier.

The best ipad the thinner ipad the gold color is very nice and feel better holding the ipad on my hands super fast too im very happy with the new ipad air 2

I'm a commercial airline pilot and when using the Jepp FD application, the iPad 2 was too slow to type in my flight plan and switching to and from maps to approach plates. I used the Best Buy trade in program to purchase my new iPad Air 2 64gb silver edition. I love the processing power and instead of offering the traditional 32gb, it's now a 64gb option. Highly recommended if this is your first iPad tablet.

I love my iPad. I got this device at an amazing price! Totally recommended, it's fast, has good battery life and the screen is amazing for movies!

This is my second iPad and am very happy that I upgraded . It is much lighter and faster. Love the new features.

I replaced my first edition iPad 2, and what a difference! Although the screen is smaller, it is thinner and much lighter. As I get familiar with all the things I can do with this new iPad Air2, it will be even better. I have no regrets buying another Apple product.

The product is great. All of the features are working, and the product look brand new.

As tablets go this one is number 1. Excellent screen sharpness and resolution all with a very thin and lightweight frame.
