    Great upgrade from the 2

    It's an iPad. We're all familiar with them. I had a used iPad 2 for several years and it was great but had been starting to get sluggish with all the junk I use it for. This new one is great, huge capacity and much faster than my old one. I have had a couple of apps quit on me but I think that's an issue with the most recent update to iOS though because it happened with my last iPad too. It's so much lighter too.

    This is the 4th addition to the families iPad collection. It is just what I was looking for. Lightweight and lots of storage for movies. I use it only at night before bed to watch a movie or surf the net. Screen looks fantastic, thin, and best of all its apple quality. I picked up the gold 128gb on sale, so that was even better.

    I've had this since launch day. I absolutely adore it. The screen is beautiful and it's so light-weight, I never even picked up my iPad mini any more. In fact, I think it might even feel lighter than that.

    I upgraded from an iPad 3 and it is night and day. The air 2 is incredibly fast and responsive. I love the touch id for keeping it secure. It is also much lighter and smaller. The smart cover works much better than my previous model

    Best Apple Prices

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very pleased that I waited for this great sale, Best Buy had the lowest IPad Air 2 prices I could find. The Air 2 is so convenient to carry with me and get comfortable while organizing my life, finding useful apps, listening to music, playing games, surfing the web and looking at pictures. I really appreciate how easy it is to learn and use as this is my first IPad purchase; the tips and tutorials were actually useful and enhance the user experience. I enjoyed the color options and think the gold is beautiful. I look forward to accessorizing with a case and Magic keyboard.

    Great improvement from iPad 2

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    If you have the iPad Air, upgrading to the Air 2 might not hold a lot of value. However, if users you are upgrading from the iPad or iPad 2, the iPad air 2 as many great improvements. The lighter Air 2 makes a significant difference when using the tablet. Unlike the iPad 2, my hands don't cramp after long reading sessions from the weight. It is light, even with a case. The pixel density is far superior, as is evident when reading digital comics. I no longer see small pixel variations in the text. And I can read a full page without zooming in, just like reading a full size comic book. Touch ID provides an easier experience unlocking the tablet and making purchases without having to enter passwords. The camera could be improved more, especially on the front facing one. However, it is acceptable in well lit environments. For those who store a lot of pictures, music, books, comic books, movies, and TV shows on their tablet, the 128 GB version is a big buying point. I would definitely recommend the iPad Air 2 to anyone wishing to purchase a tablet.

    Great Gift- Make sure buy enough storage!

    Its the best present I gave (to myself) in a long time. I have been holding out to buy the new iPad for about a year and it is worth the wait. The display is crisp and clear, it take great photos and it is so lightweight. I can't stress enough how important it is to get enough storage. I made that mistake with the 1st generation iPad, but have learned.....go big or go home!

    I purchased from bestbuy a 128gb space grey air 2 on the blackfriday weekend and really love the sleek and light but powerful ipad by far. I had an ipad 3 until now and the upgrade is just awesome! I thought it will be shipped end of Dec due to out of stock but they managed to ship it on Dec 3rd fortunately!!!

    Hands down, best ipad

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Hands down this is the best tablet. The fact that they haven't released an Air 3 alongside the ipad Pro shows you just how strong this tablet is right now. ios9 definitely takes advantage of the hardware and I bought a 2nd Air2 for the Mrs. The combination of screen size, weight along with excellent graphics makes this my favorite ipad of them all. The only slight knock as with most electronics is we crave longer battery life.

    Just bought it yesterday! Best Buy ad matched SAMs for me, saved 110 dollars. This iPad replaced the 4th generation one I owned for 3 years. The weight difference is very noticeable, and feels good holding in one hand. You'll also notice the sound is good, it vibrates in your hands. If you buy the iPad Air 2, you won't be disappointed!!

    So worth it

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bring my iPad everywhere with me and have it loaded with movies and apps for my train commute. I often enough find myself using it at home, again for watching movies and playing apps. Love the design though I'd recomend a case with purchase, to immediately protect it. My girlfriend wasn't really into tablets until she started using the iPad, so I also got her one for her birthday and she can't put it down now.
