    I’ve been using the device for about a week and it’s been great. Functions enough like a laptop when I need it to, and still has the ability to handle games (it handles Fortnite better than my Switch ever has, for example). I purchased it open-box excellent and excellent it has been.

    I picked up the new iPad Air M3 and it’s fantastic. It’s incredibly fast, super lightweight, and perfect for work, streaming, and everything in between. The screen is sharp, the performance is smooth, and the battery life easily gets me through the day. A great upgrade and totally worth it. Highly recommend.

    I bought this a graduation gift for my daughter to take to college. Best purchase ever. It is sleek, but large enough to complete assignments. It has a lot of memory so we don’t have to worry about space. She loved her gift and so do I . Knowing that she will be equipped with everything that she needs to finish school

    Great edition to the “ecosystem.” My first foray into the iPad line up. It does exactly what I’m looking for. From note taking, to some graphic design/artwork stuff, to even recording podcasts. The M3 is a beast. It flies through everything and never shows any kind of lag. Display is great. There are still many things I plan on trying with it that I haven’t had a chance to do yet. Highly recommend.

    This unit can do most of what a laptop can for less money and weight. The midpoint between the Pro and baseline models has been hit perfectly.

    *should be 120hz for it being a air but still smooth. *screen should be higher resolution for being a 11 inch. *screen should be longer for entertainment aspect ratio to remove the over sized black boarders. *needs camera face ID *fix the speakers that sound like there in a flushing toilet, TBH all this tech you shouldn't need speakers get some headphones that can be paired with a friend and share audio/mic , like a JBL and there party speaker mode connecting to others if allowed like a party chat. yo apple hmu if u make a test design pls * overall great build but for price fairness? , not a chance unless your a 100% dedicated artist or business person.

    I love this iPad. I use it both for streaming, reading, and work. My job consists of a lot of documents and meetings and the iPad works for both. I love the size of it and that it's smaller to carry around when my kid is home and running from room to room. It's easier to move with than a laptop.

    iPad Air + iOS26 = Magic

    I’ve always wanted an iPad, but never knew which one to get. I browsed online for a bit, even lookin at places like Facebook Marketplace. Everything looked either over priced or way too used, or both. I browsed online at Best Buy and found this beauty, boasting the same price as used while being NEW and top of its line. I didn’t hesitate and I’ve been super happy with it ever since. I draw a lot with the Apple Pencil Pro and even do business work for my content. iOS 26 really brought a lot to the table too.

    Excellent addition to IPad lineup. Very happy with purchase which was to replace an aging IPad Pro model. Screen picture quality and others features re good ,especially at the nice price point I received through Black Friday promotions. Best Buy staff along with on-site Apple representative was superb.
