    Needed an apple product ASAP. Love the size because it doesnt take up much space since I also carry a laptop.

    I bought this to replace an original Air model that was the 9.7 size. Really like the size and it has the touch feature like my iPhone 8 so it operates more like I have gotten use to with my phone.

    We bought this to replace my daughter older Ipad mini, and it is even better than the last one. It took us only a few minutes to set it up...and she was using it right away. Quite amazing.
