    This is my second Apple iPad. My first one must be at least 10 years old. What a difference, the picture on the screen is so clean and clear. It is so fast also. I really like it.

    It's pretty good. Battery life is good. Great display. It's honestly perfect for productivity for school. A little pricey, but over the payment options, it's affordable. Only thing is I wish apple would stop playing like they're better than everyone else and let me connect it to my PC and my Galaxy phone.

    What an upgrade over my iPad Air 2! The Magic keyboard/stand is a must-have if you want to use this as a laptop. Its lightning quick and the screen is amazing!

    This iPad has smooth processing power, courtesy of the M1 chip. It ensures swift multitasking and a lag-free experience. The camera is impressive, capturing sharp and vibrant photos, perfect for both those casual snaps and the more detailed shots. The sleek blue design I got adds a touch of elegance, making it not only a powerful tool but also a stylish accessory.

    The 10.9 inch screen size is an upgrade from our older smaller iPad that we traded in for this one. And the M1 processor provides great speed.

    Expensive for what it offers. apple = pay to play

    its good. does what it needs to do. Chip is way stronger than it needs to be which is great. It's very comfortable to hold (more comfortable than the Samsung tablet S8 or S9 but that could be because I had a case that held the S-pen). I only gave it 3/5 stars because the Samsung S8 writes better, comes with the pen, multitasks better when split screen, has a way better display (AMOLED 120Hz vs iPad 60Hz), upgradable storage and cheaper. BUT I kept the iPad and switch all my devices over to apple this past week just because the apple ecosystem is a bit more intuitive and integrates quicker and more seamlessly than the Samsung products did. But I digress, the Apple Pencil had to be purchased separately, the display is very dated but the chip is strong so I guess I prefer that over the display.

    This is a beautiful, smooth device. I’ve read elsewhere that people complained of a weak backing and creaking. I noticed that most complaints were from early 2022. I have zero problems like that. I am not a power user but would like to point out how the transfer from my IPad 9th generation went. The folks at my Best Buy in Gainesville, Georgia we’re just fantastic. I did not need the old IPad to transfer data. They wiped clean the old IPad so I came home with the Air, everything transferred flawlessly from I Cloud, I was amazed it was quick and perfect. Best tablet I’ve ever owned.

    I mean, it’s the latest iPad. Therefore the best most intuitive, fastest, lightest tablet on the market. I’ve been enjoying surfing the web and streaming. Which is why I got it.
