    Light and thin in design yet packing a powerful punch is Apples iPad Air 2! With such an amazing deal going on (16gb wifi for only 374.99) how can anyone pass up the offer? Props to BestBuy for showing everyone what a real black friday sale is while others *cough* Amazon *cough* fell short!

    Very easy to use even for a Senior. Faster than my laptop. Glad I purchased. Debated for about six months since I have a laptop. Now wish I had bought it sooner. Young man who helped me at the store was very knowledgeable.

    Clear bright screen. Real smooth to work with. I read a lot of articles, watch a lot of video and actually get work done for my job. This tablet makes it easy to move from site to site, function to function. Charges quickly and holds charge for about eight hours. Couldn't be happier!

    Nice and wonderful. Easy to use. Love it. But I must mention that the IOS upgrade is ridiculously eating up the space. Could Apple work with that? Soon 16 GB would not be enough for anything since it all be the IOS data. Thanks.

    Great job apple! I had a iPad first generation and upgraded to this baby. Wow was it a huge difference. But i have played around with the platform for the air 1 and i knew i had to give this to my dad who is in love. Easy to use, Griffin case got perfect on it and he uses it daily.

    After trying out all kinds of tablets (Samsung Galaxy, Android, Nexus, Kindle, etc) I ended up back at Apple as they just nail it every time. Sure others have some cool additional features but you cannot beat the buttery smooth performance and beautiful aesthetics of Apple. Not many tech products can function just as good as the day you bought them 5 years down the road, but that's exactly what Apple does. This will be replacing my 5 year old iPad and I couldn't be more excited.

    Purchased for 62 year old as a first tablet. It was easy to learn how to use and help her feel comfortable using it. Tablet charges fast and holds its charge well. Lots of great apps that are free to use. Easy to set up and link to various email accounts and social media accounts

    This was a teplacement for an iPad 2 that still worked and was gifted to someone else. Couldn't be happier with the new purchase. Much lighter, faster processing, and the colors are gorgeous. Happy with the purchase.

    Not much to say other than a continuous improvement over prior model. I purchased to replace a first gen ipad. The processor is super fast, printing is easier and the camera is excellent. The mirroring capability with the appletv is super. bought as present for wife and she's lovin it.

    Great product. Solid. Sleek. Well made. Easy to use. Useful for so many things. It is a joy to use. I immediately loved it. But... I returned it for a refund, due to the pristine white of the backlit screen having a gray corner. Simply put, a $400 product should be perfect. That gray corner kept screaming at me. The reason I opted to not have it replaced with another iPad Air 2 was because, having finally had my first experience with an iPad, I decided that the larger iPad Pro would better suit my needs. Were it not for that, I would have gladly had it replaced with an identical model. It is a fine piece of tech. It's easy to see why the iPad Air 2 has many 5 STAR ratings. ALSO: Major kudos to Best Buy for making both the purchase and the return of the iPad so effortless. Not only did Best Buy TRULY have the BEST price, the fact that they made the whole shopping experience a breeze clearly made purchasing from them the absolute best BUY. I highly recommend shopping at Best Buy. Their rewards program is great, too! Got a $5.00 coupon just the other day :-D

    I am very happy with my new ipad air2. Perfect size screen, it is thin and light, beautiful display. If you are using it around the house it should be perfect. My only issue is they should not even sell a 16 GB. With the OS on it and essential apps you're left with 8 GB if you're lucky. That is like two hd movies at best. Buy it but go with the 64 GB.

    Battery life on the original iPad was getting worse so time to update. The Air 2 is as one would expect ... faster, and brighter. Battery life is excellent. The finger print opening is a handy feature and seems to work well. What more can you say, it's an iPad and performs as expected.

    iPad Air 2, 16 GB review: Definitely a sweet media consumer -thin, light, great picture, infamously simple iOS. Anti-reflective screen still reflects more than I'd like and it does appear to be dimmer than the previous model. Still, it is usable outside if you avoid having the screen in direct sunlight. 16 GB is fine for my purpose as I am not using this for anything more than web browsing, weather, and 2 other apps. If you want this to entertain you with games, music, etc., then do yourself a favor and get one with more storage.

    This is so much fun! I haven't been able to put it down. Its made by APPLE so we know it has to be awesome. Speed is unbelievable, thinner design, great screen resolution too. I am so glad I made this purchase. I can't keep my husband away from it though. I will have to get him his own.

    My Ipad 2 is great and easy to use

    My Ipad 2 is great and easy to use LOVE IT!! The iPad 2 is absurdly thin. More importantly than it's thinness is its tapered edge which feels more natural in your hand. One of the biggest complaints about the original iPad was it really wasn't tremendously comfortable to hold for long periods at a time. For a tablet device designed to be held, that's a pretty big deal. Apple really has done an amazing job of cramming everything into an even smaller space than before and the difference is really noticeable when you're holding the device. In addition to the tapered edge, Apple managed to reduce the overall weight of the iPad 2. That might not seem like a huge deal to most, especially when you consider the weight difference isn't tremendous when you're already under 2 pounds, but I spend a good part of my day holding the iPad in my hands and the weight difference is surprising by the end of the day. The first generation isn't heavy by any means, but the iPad 2 outshines it.

    Coming from the iPad Retina, switching to the iPad Air 2 was a big welcome change... The big difference in weight and size makes it a lot easier to carry and pack in my backpack. The improved specs make it so much better. Count in the great deal I got at BestBuy and I'm a happy camper

    I enjoy this iPad. It doesn't have a lot of space which is fine. Perfect size, mini is too small for me and the pro is like holding a television. it is the classic ipad but thinner. So far the battery has lasted about 5-7 hours (with consistent use, i.e. videos, games etc)

    I already had an iPad 2 that my wife kept stealing from me. So I bought her one of her own! It's small and light enough that she's able to carry it around where she needs it, and being the newest version, the processor and GPU never stutter no matter how hard the apps push it.

    Apple products are so easy and fun to use for people of all ages, however, the one downfall is its price. I wish they were better priced so a larger network of people could take advantage of the wonderful learning applications, especially for children. I commute a total of 80 minutes a day, so having my iPad with me is a wonderful companion - super light, long lasting battery and reduces the need to carry so much "stuff".

    I absolutely love this iPad! I love the size and it is light enough that it is easy to use the nook app without it being uncomfortable. As always with Apple the design is sleek and gorgeous! I have owned a mini, iPad 2, and of course this one and so far it is my favorite!
