    Easy to use, fast processing. This is a great tablet and I was super excited that the price point was more aggressive than the older version.

    Performs as expected, which is excellent. Like the larger storage capacity. Hopefully will last through the next few IOS upgrades!

    Love the size and ease of use. It is large enough for viewing videos but small enough to throw into a bag or store in the seat on a plane.

    Needed 128GB to allow for more photo storage to match iPhone. Do not notice any weight change from Air 2. Best deal from Best Buy always!

    It does what an Ipad does. Better battery life than its previous versions. Faster processor & better photo quality than its predecessors.

    Works great! Size is smaller than my old one, but the screen is the s@me size. Loved their program to turn in old iPad and get credit, and then they were able to put most of my apps back on the new one, Great customer service!

    Nice entry level tablet...

    What can I say. It's an iPad. Not much changes between iterations other than aesthetics and some tweaks to the internals. For the internals, this one has a newer chip in it A9 (pro that released in 2016 has the A9x) and sports the same amount of RAM as the 2014 Air 2 tablet. Coming from an iPad 4 that released late in 2012, this one feels 'snappier', but I would have expected more four and a half years later. In terms of aesthetics, it's very similar to my iPad 4 (though thinner), but truly feels like a step back from the Air 2. The Air 2 looked like an Apple product. This one just feels cheap which is surprising for an Apple product, but seems like they are trying to position this as an entry level tablet. If that's the goal, then I'd say they accomplished that.

    Got this to replace my 16Gb iPad 2. It has a lot more memory, better display, and operates more quickly than my older model. Being an iPad it does have limitations compared to a laptop, but the mobility and touch screen make it nice to work on. If your going to do much word processing, get a Bluetooth keyboard.
