I love my iPad that was given to me for Mothers Day! I also received the apple pen and keyboard. It is just amazing on how easy it is to use and able to do almost everything on the iPad!

I bought an iPad with an Apple Pencil for my daughter, and it was the perfect choice since she loves drawing. She absolutely loves it! Highly recommend this combo for anyone passionate about art.

I recently upgraded from my iPad 6th gen to the iPad Air M2, 11-inch in Starlight, mainly because I needed more storage for my classes and bible study. While the color and size are perfect and fit seamlessly into my Apple ecosystem, I'm honestly disappointed for the first time with an Apple product. The battery life has been underwhelming—after just two uses, it dropped from 100% to 20% in less than an hour and a half. This is a significant issue, especially since I rely on it for school. I’m now debating whether to return it, wishing I had waited for the upcoming Apple event in September.

The Apple 11-inch iPad Air (2024) with the M2 chip offers excellent performance for its price range, bridging the gap between the basic iPad and the iPad Pro. The M2 chip ensures smooth multitasking, and its compatibility with accessories like the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil Pro adds to its versatility. The 11-inch Liquid Retina display provides sharp visuals, though it lacks ProMotion (120Hz refresh rate). The Starlight finish is stylish, and the 256GB storage is ample for most .

The screen size is perfect if your main purpose is to take notes on it and/or watch videos. It’s not too big and not too small, and still portable. The sound is great and I love the display. It’s nice that it has an M2 chip. The only “con” is that it doesn’t have Face ID like most of our iPhones do, so it just takes some getting used to. It does have Touch ID though. Compatible with the Apple Pencil Pro and I got it in 256 GB. I think most people should be fine with 128 GB though, unless if you plan on saving a lot on your iPad.

This iPad Air is simply amazing! It is very fast, capable of doing way more than I need it for and is a very attractive device. I think I LOVE it! I honestly use this everyday for many things. Apple really knocked it out of the park with this one. I upgraded from a 64 g version and I am so glad I did. I have so much space available! I have no regrets on this purchase! Just buy it!!!

Purchased this iPad Air as a gift for my wife to replace her older iPad. Screen is bright and resolution is great. M2 chip provides nice performance. However, battery life seems significantly shorter than the previous model.
Working with settings to optimize battery performance, but so far no significant boost. Visually the Starlight case is attractive and the unit is slim and sleek. Accessories such as magic keyboard are way too expensive, so finding third party options.

This is my first iPad. I've enjoyed using it for daily activities such as email use, reading PDF documents, typing assignments and preparation for lectures. I purchased a separate keyboard from Amazon. It's not an apple keyboard, but it works just the same overall. I am pleased with my purchase. In addition. Best Buy, as always, did a fantastic job preparing the delivery of my order. Everything was in place and ready to go when I came to pick it up, and they always have the best customer service. I continue to shop at Best Buy because of the ease of service, the availability of the items, and the customer service This is not a paid review.I just like giving good feedback when I locate a great find.

Love this new Ipad. Fast, brilliant screen, super convenient so I don't have to lug my macbook. Will add the pencil soon. Only wish the picture quality was better, but never without my phone, so not a deal breaker.

My eyes have gone wonky and for certain things I need to be able see without stressing. This is the perfect size for when I don’t want to get on my laptop.
The first thing I did was download my entire iTunes library! Music to listen to while I work. Work is primarily why I got this. Retired but work never stops.
My laptop is a LENOVA but I can save my files to the cloud and download them here.
I have a lot to learn but it’s going to be great.
