    I like this iPad, however they have removed a couple of features that’s why only 3stars. I had to buy a splitter to be able to charge & plug in my headphone. The other is the touch access button which is in a not so great spot. I like the new version but liked the old version better. Only reason for the new one, it was going to be too expensive to fix the old one.

    The iPad Air 5 itself is awesome. Great feel to it. The purple is less vibrant in real life than the pictures but still looks good. Setup was very automated and very easy to get through. Horrible part is no expandable storage. THIS IS 2022/2023! 64GB is fine for getting started with your new tablet, but 2 weeks in and your 1/2 way through the capacity of the tablet. It literally costs next to nothing to slot in a V30 SD card receiever and put in the OS support and drivers necessary to operate it. Literally every other tablet manufacturer has expandable storage. Get with the friggin program Apple!!!
