    Perfect for taking notes and using with a 3rd party Apple Pencil. Can also use to surf the web. Responds well to multiple apps open at the same time.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I love this iPad. I got it mainly for drawing and it’s been a really great experience especially with the Apple Pencil. The only downside is I wish it was 120hz.

    Best iPad Air by far!!! Downgraded from the iPad Pro 2019. Now with the M1 in the iPad Air this is one powerful device and inches closer to the iPad Pro's. Wish the entry level had more storage but I'll manage. Completely satisfied : )
