    I’m actually using my new iPod to review this right now. It was at a great price at Best Buy. I was able to begin using it and explore the AI capabilities right away. I have taken it on vacation and it totally replaced my need to take a bulkier laptop computer for my needs during a week-long trip. Great purchase!

    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!!!

    Like the size so far, not to small not to big. Suits my needs. Think it will be as good as my MacBook Air that still works after 10 years, guess the software is out of date.

    This iPad is worth the upgrade. iPadOS 26 looks more fluid and responsive. I would say this iPad can replace my MBA for some tasks due to its portability and ease of use. Best Buy also offers great incentives with their trade in program.

    Apple equipment has always seemed "left-handed", but I have been able to operate this piece without having to ask Google. This is unusual for an old man!

    My previous iPad (9.7 Pro) kept freezing on me. Best Buy was offering $50 off on the new 11" iPad Air M3. I did a lot of research first to determine which iPad model was right for my needs, and this one is perfect. So speedy!!! And has AI built in, of course. In addition, the Best Buy Geek Squad was able to do the data transfer for me in a matter of about 20 minutes. I've bought a pencil and keyboard to go with it and hoping this one will outlast me...I am 85 yrs old.
