Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was looking for a device to use almost like a laptop, but be more lightweight & transportable, as well as having cellular option to use when traveling by car — and be bigger than my iPhone screen. After using just a few weeks, it has proven to be as good as I hoped it would be, and perhaps even better. I’d been considering this item for over a year. I’m glad I chose to finally get it, and to get the Wi-Fi + Cellular model. And Best Buy honored my request for a price-match, too!

The Apple 10.9” iPad Air has been a game-changer for me! It’s incredibly lightweight and portable, yet it packs a serious punch with its powerful processor. The display is gorgeous—vivid colors and sharp details make everything from reading to streaming movies a pleasure. I love how smooth and responsive it is, especially with the Apple Pencil; it’s perfect for note-taking, sketching, or simply navigating. Battery life is impressive, easily lasting through a full day of mixed use. Plus, the build quality feels premium and durable, and the design is sleek and modern. It’s an amazing balance between power and portability, and it’s become my go-to device for work, entertainment, and everything in between. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a powerful yet portable tablet!

This IPad is perfect for me because it’s the perfect size and fits in just about any bag. It also has the perfect storage for me, it’s amazing for college students and to watch movies, it is very light and pairs easily with the Apple Pencil 2nd gen. Also it is very useful when it comes to drawing and sketching.

This ipad airreplaced an older ipad pro, its faster and very easy to use, the only issue is the on of button seems to be a little touchy

Picture and video clarity are excellent. Ease of work (and play) are excellent. Long-lasting battery that recharges quickly. No issues with the device yet that I have found.

Amazing purchase! So easy to use, takes perfect notes for college. It is the best tool for any college student to have in their arsenal, and high schoolers would also benefit greatly from it.

My new Apple IPad is much quicker in response time than my old one. A few new features and much more memory for storing photos and movies. I am enjoying playing with the newer features. I also love the stand alone phone access I can use if I need to.

I bought this iPad Air for myself as my iPad Air 3 was not working properly, and with all the issues it had the cost to repair was just over half of buying a new one. This one is much much lighter which I was really impressed I didn’t expect that big of a difference in weight. The system is faster, picture quality better it has several new options which I like I also like the magnetic pencil holder on the side of tablet. Overall I am very happy I decided to upgrade to the newest version of iPad Air instead of paying so much to fix the generation 3 air I had before.

This iPad replaced an older iPad air so the transition was easy. It is so much faster with more storage. It was necessary to get this model so upgrades would be available. The size is slightly larger but still fits nicely in a handbag.

Love my new IPad! It is what I thought it would be - light weight, much faster than my very old IPad. Limited camera - which I hadn’t thought about - but I take most pictures with phone anyway.

I was looking for an Air IPad to use in my ac company and I found it in best by with an excellent price.

As the title states, this tablet is doing well so far. This iPad, paired with the magic keyboard cover, works adequate enough to act as a bridge between a mobile device and a full on laptop. I'll share more details on that in the product page for the cover... As for the device itself, it's pretty zippy- no lags to speak of. I haven't tried the camera on the back yet, but I already have camera shots handled by my phone anyway so that wasn't a factor in my decision on this particular tablet. Nice and light, but feels like it can take a bump or two before failure so you don't have to worry about having this surrounded by bubble wrap before getting a case in it. Screen is nice and bright, speakers are sufficient for what I need it for. It should go without saying that a screen protector should be placed on it- I personally have a Paperlike brand on mine that feels great despite a few air bubbles due to user error. 256 GB of space is definitely a plus due to Apple products not having any way of expanding storage in device itself. And the cellular connection works great for me but YMMV based on which carriers work where you live... If you are searching for a sophisticated camera system that can replace a professional camera, this isn't the right one for you. Meanwhile, if you're searching for a solid choice for a versatile all-rounder tablet that can double as a basic laptop in a pinch, you won't be given a hard time choosing the iPad Air!

Perfect size, weight and height! Great for office work, and even personal organizer! Love it!

I love Apple and I love my Ipad. This is my go to every morning when I am getting ready for work. I can watch my favorite shows while I am getting my make up and fixing my hair. I hardly leave home without it in case I have some downtime and want to hop on. It's small and light weight but big enough to watch movies or browse facebook. I buy a new ipad every couple of years and will continue to do so.

Love this iPad. Amazing performance with the M1 chip. Every bit as powerful as my older generation iPad Pro. Can’t beat Best Buy’s deals, always find the best price here.

The iPad Air 5th Gen with 256 Gb and cellular is a very nice annd capable update from my older iPad 5th gen. The transfer of data from the old iPad went smoothly without a hitch. The M1 processor moves things along quickly so I no longer have so many stalled tasks as before. The screen is bright and full-colored. The cellular e-SIM was easily activated at my T-mobile store. I added the Apple Pencil 2 and it works beautifully with the Zagg screen cover installed. The other accessory I addd was the Logitech detachable keyboard which integrates seamlessly with the iPad and allows it to function like a small laptop. I wrote up a separate review on this keyboard in the Best Buy app.

Excellent! Much faster than my 4th gen Air. Seems a lot brighter too. Came with the charging block and cable. The only thing I ran into is when bouncing it to my TV using Apple AirPlay. It would hesitate and freeze on the screen but that could be the tablet, the internet or the TV. Other than that, it's a great tablet would definitely recommend. And I would recommend getting the Wi-Fi cell version. It just doesn't make sense anymore to get a tablet that you can't take everywhere.

My first iPad Air and first with cellular. I mostly use iPad Pro but I wanted something a little smaller that I could use when not in a wi-GI area. This fits the bill perfectly!

I was looking for something smaller than a labtop since i have a desktop in my dorm, this was perfect- amazing to take notes on and very custamizable.

The best ipad that i have had yet! So easy to use, great battery life, everything that you want and need.
