    Bought this for my son to replace an iPad mini that he'd had for 6 years. He loves the screen size. The battery lasts a long time. It was very easy to set up with his Apple I.D from his previous iPad. Overall, he loves it.

    This is my fourth ipad over many years. This is by far the most light weight . The screen is slightly larger but the resolution is truly superior. Great upgrade!!

    This is a replacement for my old device and I am so glad I went with this item. It is more than I expected and is faster, bigger screen, easy to transfer contents from my old device. I am very pleased!

    I was going to by a smaller I pad but realized I would enjoy the 10.9 inch I pad Air for the larger screen size and computer power. I am new to apple products, but I am catching on fast. I mainly use it for the Garage Band app. It does everything I hoped it would and much more!

    Great display, so easy to navigate and speakers are great. Can’t believe how fast the M1 processes games. What a difference from my iPad third generation. Got a portable hard drive for additional storage. Still have 20gb on the main drive after loading all my apps, music, photos on the 64gb drive.

    Amazing iPad

    I recently purchased the Apple iPad Air from Best Buy, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The battery life of the iPad Air is impressive. I can use it throughout the day for work and entertainment without worrying about running out of power. When I do need to recharge, the USB-C port ensures faster charging, saving me valuable time. I also enjoy the fingerprint scanner and the ease of use with its placement. I had originally purchased the iPad in blue but was disappointed with the fact that the 2nd gen Apple Pencil wasn’t compatible and I don’t like the idea of having to use an adapter for the new charging port. Best Buy staff was more than amazing in the return process and thoroughly explained which ones to get if I wanted to use the pencil.

    Not too small or too heavy. It combines perforance and portability into one unit. I love the Magic Keyboard case even though it is a pricey item. I also paired it with the second generation Pencil and they all work well together.

    The iPad Air is great introduction as a persons first iPad. I’ve used it for video editing and so far it runs real smooth due to its powerful M1 chip. Lighting and display is superb. It’s pretty easy to navigate as well and organize. I bought the 64gb version which I wouldn’t consider getting as the 256gb is the better option. Despite the storage though, it’s a powerful device that if your looking for an upgrade or just want to join the iPad ecosystem, it’s a great option!
