STUDENT BUYER BEWARE: Almost 6 month update review Okay, so I’ve had my iPad Air M3 256gb for almost 6 months now, and here’s why I am selling it. I am student currently and use this very heavily, and have had it replaced already once because the first one burnt out on me while i was using notability. Just to disclose, I’ve only ever used the Apple chargers it came with and took the precautions to preserve battery life/health as much as possible but here are some major cons that should NOT be overlooked if you are a student looking to buy this and use it daily like i do. PROS: super pretty, i loved the purple. Holds up pretty well in terms of all normal multi tasking, performance, and overall is really a beautifully presented iPad. Loved that it came with 256gb option, and is super portable especially for school and traveling. This size option made it so nice downsizing from my 4th gen iPad Pro 13inch. This will be perfect for someone who uses their iPad more casually, but not as heavily as someone like me who is pretty much on it all the time unless when I’m not studying. I’m sorry but that is all for the pros. Unfortunately… this is a major con for me that Apple really needs to look into. CONS: I’ve had my iPad replaced already once in the past 6 months from original purchase date. I don’t use my iPad for anything past school work related things and some occasional Netflix shows when I have the time. So between the two iPads I’ve owned I’ve noticed a major flaw in both of them and that’s that the iPad gets extremely warm a lot even when it’s just sitting idly on the Home Screen if let’s say I’m pivoting between my laptop and iPad. Charging? Gets hot. Notability? Hot. At first i thought maybe it was user error and it was me but even as i was charging it up a little to sell it, it was getting hot as i was navigating through settings to turn off Find My and Factory Rest. My battery drains pretty quickly but I won’t necessarily knock Apple for that because it’s unrealistic to expect it to last for days with heavy usage. Bottom line, I’m selling this and already bought the Pro which has not gotten hot, despite how much i use it - and the colors are even more vibrant than the Air. TLDR: iPad gets hot even when sitting idly most of the time being used, iPad has been replaced already and replacement still gets really hot. I only use Apple chargers and take care of my electronics. Buy the Pro instead if you are a student and need this to last you through college.

Well wortth it. It doesn’t need 50 characters to rate it.

Top notch. Buttery smooth performance. Good for anything and everything

Handy mobile tablet (11 inch) version used in a vehicle/work environment. This is my only apple product and I was very surprised by how responsive the touch tablet is versus prior android. I bought solely due to the magic keyboard but am beyond happy so far.

Looking for an upgrade from the 10th gen iPad and this iPad doesn’t disappoint.

Lightweight, thin and operates similar to my last iPad which was about two years old. Works a little faster but haven’t noticed any longer time between charges or charging any faster than my old one. Generally very happy with it though!

I got this for my son for Christmas and so far he loves it! Its great for games.

This iPad air is a great tablet! The employee was very helpful in the selection of the best options Necessary for use of this tablet. He did not push me into a tablet with more "bells and whistles" than needed.

Love the iPad Air already and I have not had time to explore it’s full potential.

Product as described on the website and great shape

Actually, I didn’t use the Apple 11 inch air iPad. I ordered it and loved the look but decided that I need one a little bigger. I have poor eyesight and have had several eye surgeries. Therefore, I need print large. But, the 11 inch would be the perfect size to take with you whenever you go!

I had the 10th gen iPad which Ed performed very well. Playing games worked well but when moving screen occasionally hang up. The new M3 was smoother when doing fast video action and doesn’t get stuck in certain other actions. Recommend both.

It does what it was designed to do. The iPad Air M3 was a good purchase.

Excellent products 100% recommend good for my kids

Great for streaming , games , absolutely love it !

Great product. I always buy in best buy, ( best of the best).

Great Apple Ipad. I always buy my electronics at Best Buy. I finally decided to upgrade my IPad. This Ipad is fast and responds well. I am very pleased with my purchase and as always with my Apple products

Upgraded from 11” iPad Air M2. This is little better with a performance bump same as always. Graphics performance was biggest jump. Graphics performance is rea and noticablel!

yes!! i took it to school today and ive also scanned in all my greek language notes so i can search thru them for what i need- beats carrying a notebook around and flipping thru it when trying to parse a word

Granddaughter loves this iPad. I would definitely recommend it.
