    the best ipad in the world! ai had an old 13 inch pro and this one is just more comfortable to use. I bought a keyboard for it and it’s just so much better than a bigger one. I use it to draw, study, 3d small things and also for watching videos and stuff. If you want to do 3d I would recommend the pro version, but for drawing and studying the air itself is perfect. I like more the smaller one, so if you are using it as a portable thing it would be perfect, if you are using it as a drawing tablet the bigger one would be better.

    I’ve had this Ipad for about 3 months. I definitely recommend if you want something light and durable. I wear a case on it usually just for extra protection but even without I think it’s pretty solid.

    This is my first iPad that I have purchased for my new substitute teacher job and it is truly amazing with all of its different features. I was debating between on purchasing this from the Apple Store with its education savings but Best Buy had a better discount and I am glad l purchased it along with an Apple Pencil Pro. The battery life lasts me all day and the M3 chip makes everything run faster and smoothly. I truly recommend this iPad to anyone who wants one for their personal use, job, or educational purposes.

    Went from a 2nd gen iPad Pro12.9 inch to this 1 and I’ve been writing in it since I brought it! I like how compact it is. Replaced all the journals & pens. I’m able to choose different colors from the options avail and don’t have to worry about the ink running out! Battery life is good I usually go 2 weeks without charging… my daily usage is for journaling! It synchs well with my other devices and the speck case is perfect!

    I love my IPad Air. It’s lightweight and fast and with the Apple keyboard it works as small “computer” to take it with me on a daily basis. I don’t use any advanced features though, my use is for basically videos, writing short docs, internet and other apps I can use with the Apple Pencil.

    The iPad that makes the most sense for most people

    The 2025 M3 iPad Air is plenty for most use cases. I’m a nursing student who mostly use it to take notes and read books, with some occasional gaming and long Netflix sessions. Even with multiple apps open, it’s never stuttered, frozen, or crashed. The iPad Pro was too much iPad for me, and I know a lot of people prefer to get the Pro for the 120hz, but the 60hz on the Air is barely noticeable even for someone who has a 120hz phone. The M3 is future proof and has just the right features for a student (and probably most adults and professionals). The Apple Pencil Pro also works perfectly with it. The Air M3 + Pencil Pro = *chef’s kiss*

    Substantial upgrade

    I just upgraded my 7th gen iPad to this newest iPad Air and the difference is remarkable. The graphics and display are sharper, it’s lighter, and battery life is much improved. I use it along with the Apple Pencil Pro mostly for surfing, reading, coloring, and note taking and it is quick and responsive. Not having a home button is a change, but with the different multitasking views (esp. stage manager) I don’t even miss the home button! If you have an older iPad, take the leap!

    Very happy with the ipad air 11". I got it for my daughter-14yo-who likes to draw a lot. She enjoys the sensitivity of the pen and quality of rendering and display. 11" was definitely the right size. Battery life is good. Definitely a higher cost tablet than others but quality is top notch. Also very happy to see it is compatible with google classroom. Some pictures of her renderings attached

    I love my new iPad! I enjoy the size of the screen and its ease of use. It’s easier to travel with this rather than my laptop. I love that they make an adapter for the iPads so I can review my photos while on vacation. I would definitely recommend this and buy one again.

    Finally upgraded from my 4th gen Air and honestly it’s the best thing I’ve done. I love how much faster the processor is and the fact that I have more space (my 4th gen was only 64GB and couldn’t update anymore) and the battery life (even while using Procreate) is phenomenal!

    I’ve been loving my iPad for studying! It makes everything so much more organized and convenient. I can take notes, highlight, and keep all my materials in one place without carrying a bunch of notebooks. It’s also super easy to switch between apps when I’m doing assignments or reviewing. Honestly, it’s made studying feel less stressful and way more efficient definitely one of the best tools I’ve used for school!

    I bought the iPad Air 11” 256 GB from Best Buy and couldn’t be happier! I got it for a better price than anywhere else, and the whole process was quick and easy. The iPad itself is super fast, lightweight, and perfect for work for school and play. Highly recommend both the product and Best Buy’s deal!
