    A great upgrade for my wife's 8 year old ipad 5th generation for her birthday. She loved the bigger screen and increased speed with no lagging where her old one did lag.

    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.

    Here’s the thing, the tablet is beautiful and the display and graphics are amazing-that said, I’m just not an apple iPad/computer person. I was raised on PC’s…but wanted to give this a try. I bought the keyboard and pencil that goes with, I don’t like that the keyboard isn’t backlit and heavy. The sales person was incredibly helpful and friendly but I will be returning because it’s not on a 4th of July sale and the 14” 2-in-1 laptop from Lenovo has an incredible sale and will give me everything I need and want, bigger storage, and backlit keyboard.

    Laptop Replacement

    I was using an old surface go as an ancillary to my windows laptop. But it was becoming slow and I was concerned about security. When I saw the M3 iPad Air was on sale, I drcided to purchase one even thiugh I already had a regular iPad 10 and a Mini 7. I took a chance on an open box for an even greater deal. With iPadOS 26 dowloaded, I find myself using my iPad Air all of the time. What I purchased as a laptop ancillary, has become a replacement.

    I bought this Ipad as a present for my girlfriend, she loved it! She’s been using it constantly ever since, says that the battery lasts a while even though she’s a heavy user. I also got her the Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard which make it even easier to use - like a mini laptop!

    It was time for a new one, using a 2017 iPad pro it already developed a white spot on the screen.so upgrading was needed. It is a excellent iPad the screen looks great even thou the 2017 had 120hz screen, I adjusted since she is fast so you really don't notice that that much unless you do heavy video editing but for the rest it works great can't complain

    I’m very pleased with my purchase. As a hobby, I provide sound for different activities in organizations. My iPad allows me to prepare in advance. Most everything I will need for an event. It allows me to then present it back at a fingertip.

    This is more than just a replacement for an aged tablet (as I transition from another manufacturer). It is the ideal replacement with all the benefits and upgrades I require/need, in one excellent product. Well satisfied.

    Going from the iPad I got in 2020 to this newer iPad Air was a huge difference. This is my first experience with an iPad Air and so far I love it! It was a bit confusing going from using the home button on my iPad (2020) to using the power button to unlock my iPad Air (2025). The screen is bigger and better! I am able to enjoy my shows so much more with the iPad Air and the volume on it is much clearer and louder. So happy for this upgrade.

    Just purchased our fourth iPad

    This is the fourth iPad we have purchased and we have yet to be disappointed in the utility the machine provides. My wife is the primary user of the iPad and she loves the machine. It has replaced the book she always had to read to go to sleep. We have had batteries and one digitizer replaced to extend the life of the tablets. The oldest one is now only marginally functional but she uses it to play games. The machines have advanced technologically through the years. It will take a couple of years to fully assess the dependability of our newest addition but if past performance is any indication, it will do just fine.
