Apple - 10.9-Inch iPad Air - Latest Model - (5th Generation) with Wi-Fi - 64GB - Purple

This is a great tablet however it’s missing some things that make me go huh? Performance wise this tablet is fantastic, I love the ability to multitask with ease. I experienced no lagging whatsoever while running procreate, YouTube, safari, and express at the same time. The display is stunning, the fullness of the colors doesn’t leave much more to desire. Although it’s not 120hz, it’s smooth and snappy. The bezels are definitely thick, however imo because of the size of the tablet I’m unbothered. Watching YouTube videos or movies on it is exceptional. Sound quality wise, and maybe my only gripe is I don’t think the speakers are very loud. They are loud enough if you’re nearby but if your listening while moving around you’ll definitely have difficulty. For example, if you’re cooking and watching a video, the sound of water boiling will drown it out unless your iPad is near it which I wouldn’t recommend. Otherwise the sound is rich enough to catch those annoying parts in the movies where you’re not sure if you should turn your volume up because the next scene might bust your eardrums. The camera is okay, not impressive but definitely does the job. Connectivity hasn’t been an issue, even when I tethered it to my iPhone 12pro, it operated with great speed and ease when I did a quick download. I love that I can work between my tablet, iPhone and Mac mini with ease. I also find much more productivity because not everything is done on my iPhone where there can be a bunch of distractions. As far as use with the Apple Pencil, it’s been stellar. I’ve never used one before so I have nothing to compare it to besides maybe the S pen. It works without lag nor is it overly sensitive. I’d recommend this to anybody who draws anything from fashion to anime, even if you’re a writer who wants the security a tablet can bring, it’s a good choice to pair with this iPad. Battery life is great, I charge it after a few days of moderate use typically. It’s a tough cookie. The back is aluminum with a nice matte finish, scratches won’t likely be an issue and fingerprints don’t show up unless your touching the apple logo on the back which is reflective. What makes me go huh? I love that Touch ID is a thing but even lower end devices have face unlock. It should be available on the iPad Air imo. Also because it’s a tablet which would typically be for reading, I don’t understand why apple has barred Nook purchases. Also, although I greatly prefer usb-c type, it’s now another separate charger that must be used from the iPhone. I will say I love that they did add the charger brick alongside the usb type c cable. Imo this is a great middle ground choice within the apple sphere however, far from a middle grounded device overall. In comparison to other brands, this iPad Air will give them a run for their money for sure. One thing apple does well is give people reliability within their products, with that said, imo the price point is fair. Aesthetically it’s beautiful, the color is

I love drawing and I haven’t drawn for like 4 years or so (gotta love depression) but I finally bit the bullet and bought an iPad to start drawing again. Let me tell you, this was the best purchase I’ve made in a long time. I’m drawing like a mad-woman and feel like myself again and it’s amazing. So amazing that I started crying in the middle of my first piece haha. The battery is great- i use it for about 4 hours a day and it lasts me 3 days on one charge. It’s amazing to watch my favorite shows on too, the picture quality is amazing. Just go ahead and buy this, whatever your reason is, go check out already.

It’s great for the price, only setback is the storage, but in my case I don’t need much storage and I consider this one of the best Value apple products out atm, battery life is DECENT an hour or two gaming drains it a lot. the M1 chip also makes it pretty future proof. If your getting this I also highly suggest getting the Magic keyboard, it just makes it so much more usable.

I absolutely luv luv my new iPad Air! At first I couldn’t believe what all the rave was about until I finally bought one. Having the ability to connect all apple devices is ingenious. I will purchasing an Apple Watch next!

Everything we thought and more. The iPad and the Apple pen. My son is loving the Nintendo switch that we got also. Couldn't ask for more. Will help greatly for school and personal. The customer service was also above and beyond. Thank you Best Buy!!

Sales rep was very good very helpful knew what he was talking about. I was very satisfying. I love my new IPad Air! I highly recommend getting one.

Great tablet for the price, had it a few weeks now and have had no issues, some complain of creeking and build quality however I have had no such issues with this tablet.

I’ve been looking to buy an iPad for a while and after all the research this iPad Air was the best choice for me. Best Buy had an awesome sale and I snagged it just for me and my son in blue! It’s so perfect. I’m happy
