    Love this iPad Air! It is quick, responsive, big (10.9 inches), and lighter than my older Samsung Galaxy Tablet. A remarkable product and it's nearly 2 years old!

    I got this iPad Air to replace my 10.5 in iPad Pro, whose battery health is on its last legs. At first I was going to replace it with the latest 11in iPad Pro (M2 chip), but then the iPad Air was on sale for $499 (64GB) so I couldn't justify the price difference. So far I love it, it's light, has a great screen, has USB-C charging, and supports the Pencil 2 (which I already have due to also owning a 12.9 inch iPad Pro). For the casual user like me, the M1 chip is more than powerful enough, and the 64GB storage is fine, since I don't download any movies or other media. It didn't take long to get adjusted to the 60hz screen, and for streaming videos like on Youtube or Netflix, it shouldn't make a difference. At some point, when the price is right, I will splurge for the Apple Magic Keyboard that's also supports the iPad Air, but at $299, it's a little steep at the moment. Anyway, I would recommend this iPad Air (5th gen) over the new iPad (10th gen).

    IPad Air & Magic Keyboard

    I love my purchase. BestBuy was having a good deal on the iPad Air, so I took advantage and ordered it along with a Magic Keyboard. My hope for these 2 products was to substitute a laptop. It works great for that and also a tablet when I want it to be! I ordered it and was able to pick it up the same day. When I arrived, the process was very easy and the employees were helpful and kind.

    The iPad Air 10.9 was everything I was hoping for. Faster speed and larger screen than my previous 9” iPad yet still light weight and portable. Keeps it’s charge longer and picture is clear and bright. Happy with my choice.

    Good size, bought it with the intent to travel with as well as to use it to stream and/or watch videos. I was between this one and the mini but I’m glad I went with this size. I also like to use notes a lot when planning for future trips, so this size was better on the eyes.

    I purchased this tablet for school and have been more than satisfied. The smooth feel to it and the ability to open more than one app at once has made taking notes not just easier, but even fun. It is extremely easy for me to plan out my calendar, keep track of all my notes and assignments, and enjoy videos on the large screen when not doing homework. The display is bright and vivid and I believe the size is just right to fit on my desk while working and carry anywhere comfortably. I am extremely satisfied with this product and recommend it to anyone looking for a tablet to take notes for school.

    I like this iPad 5, it's fast, the colors are bright, ideal size, not heavy or bulky, it's ideal for what I need; I think it would be a waste of money for me to spend $200.00 more on the iPad Pro; the only negative thing for me is that the battery lasts less than 10 hours and the charging cord is very short.

    Getting M1 chip for gaming on iPad is a must. I experienced so much lag playing games on my iPad. But also I forgot how incredible apple battery life is. I had iPad air 2nd generation and the battery life was gone. Dying in less than a hour. But now I can game for two hours + and barely dent the battery life. It's awesome. Screen is very nice esp if you like to watch movies or TV on it. Also u can move files from it to hdd is incredible preserving the space. That's truly a game changer.

    Great iPad!! Perfect middle between the entry level and the Pro versions. Honestly this is perfect I don’t feel the need to spend more on the pro version unless you must have the 120hz display. Super fast, great battery, and super light!
