This remarkable machine has replaced my need for a PC. I had a Microsoft surface pro but found that the iPad does the same as the surface as far as being a device used for daily activities. I returned the surface pro and saved a bunch of money in the process. I also purchased the Magic Keyboard for it and it has done wonders for the iPad. Highly recommended device!!!

Just upgraded to the new 11-inch iPad Air with the M3 chip and wow, this thing flies! It’s noticeably faster than my previous iPad, and I love how slim and lightweight it feels. The Starlight color is super clean and classy too.
Apps open instantly, multitasking is smooth, and it handles everything I throw at it without breaking a sweat. Definitely feels like it was built with Apple Intelligence in mind, It's super smart and snappy. My only gripe is it still has no Face ID. It’s 2025, and I don’t get why Apple hasn’t added it to the Air lineup yet. Touch ID works fine, but Face ID would’ve been the cherry on top.
Overall, fantastic upgrade. If you're on the fence, go for it...just know you'll still be using your thumb to unlock it.

Perfect size for everyday use like school and work. I really enjoy all the cool features on this ipad. The purple color in my opinion is the best option.

Impressed with the iPad Air M3 - A Perfect Balanc

I recently picked up the new iPad Air 11-inch with the M3 chip from Best Buy, and so far, it’s been a great experience. I was looking for something lightweight but still powerful enough to handle both work and personal tasks and this iPad hits the sweet spot.
The performance is seriously impressive. Apps open instantly, multitasking is smooth, and everything from streaming to light video editing feels effortless. The M3 chip makes a noticeable difference if you’re coming from an older model. Battery life has also been solid; I can go a full day without worrying about plugging in.
The 11-inch screen is crisp and vibrant, perfect for reading, sketching, or watching shows. I also appreciate how lightweight and portable it is super easy to toss in a bag and take anywhere.
Overall, I’m really happy with this purchase. It’s not quite a full laptop replacement for heavy tasks, but for most everyday use, it’s more than capable. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a fast, reliable tablet with premium features.

I replaced my wife's old I pad with this one and she couldn't be happier. The M3 chip is an overkill for what she uses it for, but it is a great performer all the way around. The speakers in this pad are superb, and it produces great sounds. The display is very nice and clear. The battery life seems to be great, but time will tell as batteries do degrade in time.

This IPad is the best investment I could have possibly made. The best part is that it’s not heavy and just the right size 10/10 recommendation

Upgraded from a 2018 IPad Pro

This is a great tablet and I love it. It has a good battery life and will last a little over a day with heavy use. I upgraded from a 2018 IPad Pro (I had only purchased the Pro at the time because of the Apple Pencil). I originally upgraded to the 13 inch Pro, and while it was fantastic, it was just too large and I ended up returning it. I am a hobby level artist and I felt I just did not need the size and the power for the price. I ended up getting this instead (at a third of the price) and it does everything I need it to do. I am very happy with the purchase.

Nice tablet - much faster and better screen than the old iPad that it replaced. Setup was smooth.

First, $150.00 off the $600 price and then a trading of an older iPad mini netted me another $188.00! Also an M3 chip inside, this thing is super fast! This is my first full size iPad. I'm a long time Mac user, for work and play. You can't go wrong with this choice.

It was time for a new iPad and Best Buy was having a sale, I don’t like shopping, so online ordering works great for me, shipping was super fast, and product was in perfect condition. This is the second time I have purchased an iPad online from Best Buy and I would do it again!

I recently purchased the new 11-inch iPad Air with the M3 chip, and I’m absolutely impressed. The performance is outstanding — apps open instantly, multitasking is smooth, and it easily handles creative work like photo editing, note-taking, and even light video editing.
The display is bright and sharp, making movies, reading, and drawing an amazing experience. The purple color looks beautiful and modern, and the build quality feels premium as always with Apple products.
Battery life is excellent — I can go through a full day of work and entertainment without worrying about charging. The integration with Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard makes it almost like a lightweight laptop.
Overall, this iPad Air is a perfect balance between power and portability. If you want a device that can handle daily tasks, entertainment, and even professional work, the M3 iPad Air is a fantastic choic

I replaced my iPad Air 3 with this and am happy with the tablet so far! It is super fast and easy to use, like the other iPad versions. The good thing with apple products is that they are going to get regular updates for many coming years. The only downside is the 60 Hz display.
