    I brought the IPad for my son and he hasn't put it down since. He has improved on his design for his hoodies that he's about to launch this coming March 2024.. I really do think that Apple has the best products! I love Apple and will continue to purchase everything!!

    I have never owned an ipad before but have used other peoples. When i would use those i couldnt watch certain apps or play games. This will allow all apps and streaming services. It connected to my phone easily and all my inofrmation is transferred easily. So sleak and clean looking. Best purchase.

    My iPad Pro 3rd Gen finally quit charging for good. As a gigging musician, I needed an iPad for viewing my music, and I needed it immediately. Best Buy helped me out, had exactly what I needed and wanted right away, and was overall very helpful. Thanks to Jasse, a longtime employee, for all of his expertise!

    Apple hits a home run with the iPad Air 5th gen. It is noticeably faster than the 4 gen version. It opens faster and shuts down faster. It opens apps faster and navigates pages quicker. I recommend this iPad to anyone looking for a new tablet.

    We got this for my 84 year old father in law and its amazing how quickly he was able to learn how to use it. He figured out how to facetime with family, and to play word games. He has had an iPhone for years and thus the interface for the ipad was familiar. Thats because Apple products ARE intuitive. Highly recommended!

    The iPad Air's superior processor becomes more useful for demanding workloads, like photo or video editing. To be sure, the iPad can run the same professional-grade apps the iPad Air can, like Photoshop or LumaFusion, but the iPad Air works noticeably faster for heavier duties.

    I was choosing between Air 5 and Pro 11 and decided to go with the Air. The most cost effective iPad out there. Works with Apple Pencil 2, has USB-C port (so can charge with the same charger as my MacBook), and got M1 and 8 GH ram, so all latest software features are available. And for $499 it is much more affordable than Pro 11.
