Love my ipad. Its an upgrade from my regular ipad to ipad air it is way faster and the process was smooth transferring it. Its not as good as the pro but for the price point its a good ipad. They also made the process easy with the geek squad helping me set up all of my things.

A much-needed piece of equipment for my art studio. Setup was seamless using my iPhone. Maybe took 3 minutes. I currently use a Microsoft Surface from 2018 and the Clip Studio Paint for digital art. For the iPad, I purchased the Affinity Serif Software Suite with many add-ons. I haven't used the iPad for graphics, yet, since I am finishing up a piece of art on the Surface. During the setup and downloads on the iPad, it was super-fast and the Apple Pencil was very responsive.

Pros:
• M3 Chip Performance: Incredible speed; handles multitasking and gaming effortlessly.
• New Base Storage: Finally starts at 128GB instead of 64GB.
• 13-inch Option: Great to have the larger screen size without paying Pro prices.
• Landscape Front Camera: Much better for Zoom and FaceTime calls.
• Apple Pencil Pro Support: The new squeeze and haptic features are genuinely useful for artists.
Cons:
• 60Hz Display: Still lacks “ProMotion” (120Hz) refresh rate, which is noticeable if you’re coming from a Pro model.
• Touch ID: Face ID is still reserved for the Pro line; the fingerprint sensor is fast but less convenient.
Verdict:
If you want a powerful tablet that will last for years but can’t justify spending $1,000+, this is the one to buy.

So shockingly... I purchased an iPad, and got exactly what I ordered. It does exactly what I bought it for, it's larger than my phone. Albeit... I'm shocked how good the battery life is.
If you want an iPad, you should buy an iPad.

I’ve always been curious about the iPad—its sleek design, powerful features, and the way Apple markets it as a device that bridges the gap between a smartphone and a laptop. After months of deliberation, research, and watching countless review videos, I finally decided to make the purchase.
The primary reason I bought the iPad was versatility. I needed a device that could support my creative interests (like writing and drawing), handle everyday productivity tasks, and double as a powerful entertainment hub. I wanted something lighter than a laptop but more capable than a phone—and the iPad seemed like the perfect middle ground.
Another factor that influenced my decision was how seamlessly the iPad integrates with other Apple devices. As someone already in the Apple ecosystem with an iPhone and AirPods, it made sense to invest in a device that could sync across platforms effortlessly.

The Apple ipad surprisingly holds a lot. I opted for the 128gb and that is plenty of memory for me. It’s portability and user friendly interface bridges the gap between smartphones and laptops.

This was a Christmas gift, and so far everything is working fantastically. We had some issues with our previous IPads (Gen 6), especially playong Minecraft lately, but the new ones have fixed our issues.

iPad Air 11-Inch M3 (128GB) Review on Best Buy – F

I didn’t think I needed a new iPad… until I turned on the iPad Air 11-inch with the M3 chip—and my jaw actually dropped.
Coming from the 9th-generation iPad, this feels less like an upgrade and more like stepping into the future. The 11-inch display is absolutely stunning—bigger, brighter, and so fluid it feels alive. Scrolling is silk. Colors pop. Everything looks expensive and joyful. The moment it lit up, I knew: this is what my old iPad was trying to be.
And the M3 chip?
WOW. Apps launch instantly. Multitasking feels effortless. Creative work, gaming, editing, browsing—everything is blazing fast with zero hesitation. It’s not just quicker than the 9th Gen… it’s confident. Like it knows it can handle anything I throw at it.

Excellent performance in a sleek, lightweight design
I’ve been really impressed with the 11-inch iPad Air with the M3 chip. It’s incredibly fast and handles everything I use it for—streaming, multitasking, note-taking, and creative apps—without any lag. The display is sharp and vibrant, and the lightweight design makes it easy to carry around all day.
It’s been extremely useful when coaching volleyball, especially for reviewing drills, showing plays, and organizing notes on the spot. Battery life has been solid, easily lasting through a full day of use, and the Space Gray finish looks clean and premium. If you’re looking for a powerful tablet that balances performance and portability, this iPad Air is a great choice.

The performance is incredibly smooth apps open instantly, multitasking is effortless, and even heavy tasks like photo editing, video rendering, and running multiple productivity apps feel seamless. The M3 chip definitely brings desktop-level power to a tablet.
The display quality is stunning with vibrant colors and sharp detail, making streaming, reading, and creative work more enjoyable. Battery life is excellent as well. I can easily go through a full day of work and entertainment without needing to recharge.
The build feels premium, lightweight, and comfortable to hold. Overall, this iPad is absolutely worth it-fast, efficient, and future-proof. If you’re upgrading or buying your first iPad, the M3 version is an excellent choice.
