    Worth the upgrade from the 4th gen.. Runs faster and needs less app updates. Glad I made the move. Thanks Best Buy for price matching and being able to pick it up at the store within an hour.

    Bought a purple iPad Air. Just transferred from old iPad, seems to work fine. So much faster without the lag. Apple is an excellent product.

    This is a great tablet, especially if you’re in the Apple ecosystem you can text from you can search the web you can play games and I’ve never seen a slow down yet. Better than any android tablet I’ve ever tried.

    The only real difference that I have noticed is the lack of a home button, therefore there are different ways of interacting with it. I upgraded from a dying I pad 6th gen. The transfer process was OK but it did not transfer the passwords to the apps. (So I have to figure out what the issue with Kindle is!) The fingerprint recognition is supposed to be better, but I cannot make it work for me.

    I have an older generation iPad that doesn't update anymore. Bought the 10.9-Inch iPad Air-5th generation. So easy to set up! Just mirrored my iPhone and was able to get access to all of my apps very quickly.

    See YouTube for better reviews/suggestions than I can provide. The iPad Air 5th Gen still a great product/value. Do buy a case for it. Really happy that shipping to me it arrived when BestBut said and I was kept informed - most happy with that (Thanks BestBuy)! If you're not already member of My Best Buy (at least the free membership) should strongly consider joining. Even the free perks are worth it (IMHO as of July 2024).

    Apple IPad review/Roadie review

    Knew what I was getting, I bought this IPad for college and have had no issues, love it. Unfortunately it was delivered via Roadie, which I was skeptical of and couldn’t cancel due to the 30 minute cancellation policy. I had no issues with my Roadie delivery personally, although I’d be much more reassured having it delivered by a proper company due to it being an expensive product and Roadie having a multitude of terrible reviews.

    Has the M1 chip so it can do Pro things like Stage Manager. It’s a nice little machine however it’s probably a better deal to get the iPad Pro if you’re thinking of jumping storage to 256 GB.
