    Great iPad for kids

    So I needed an additional ipad for the kids and didn't need the full blown model. While the 16GB may be small for some people it is plenty of room for the kids to use. Air 2 seems like a big upgrade from our other iPad Air. While both are light the Air 2 seems to run smoother and faster. It also appears to have a slightly stronger WIFI signal in the house especially when they are side by side.

    I had the iPad 2 for over 4 years and it was getting slow and outdated, so I decided it was time to upgrade. The iPad Air 2 is so much better on every level. For starters it's lightweight and the battery lasts almost a week. The graphics are a much needed improvement and the processor and wifi are really quick. As an owner of many Apple products, I am very happy with this model.

    I love my iPad Air 2! I also have a MacBook Air, but the iPad is much lighter weight and is set up to look just like my iPhone. Everything syncs which is very helpful to go from my laptop at home to my iPad, which I can take with me everywhere. For what I use it for the 16 GB is enough, but many people need the 64 GB for pictures and videos. I love the weight and the ease of use.

    very light weight. Easy to carry, and slim. Screen is big enough to do some productive work. Picture quality is good. Good for watching movie. Split view is good. Apps can be placed side-by-side. It is little faster as well and performance is good. Nice feature of fingerprint scanner. with keyboard accessory, it is a great portable and easy to write.

    continue to enjoy all my Apple products, especially the fact that all data is shared with all the Apple products you own. I can access the same information on my iPhone, iPad, and MacAir laptop. i bought this iPad because my iPad 2 was "ancient" technology. the new one is lighter, faster, and holds battery life much longer......great improvement

    My family has an original iPad, iPad mini, iPad Retina Display, and recently purchased this iPad Air 2. The upgrades on the iPad Air 2 are worth spending extra money on. The iPad itself is lighter and more compact while still having amazing camera quality and working at a high speed.

    I had an Ipad 2 before this Ipad air 2 purchase, oh boy, what a big difference between the two. The 2 main thing i was most impress about was the the size and the weigh of the item. I take my ipad everywhere with me especially during work travel, and believe me it made a difference for me. Smaller and lighter and much more powerful and faster.

    Everything about this IPad is easy to learn and use. So far it has been basically perfect. The only glitch I have encountered at all is in the browser. Sometimes when I open the Google search page, the keyboard will disappear after I type the first letter. But as soon as I tap the search box, it pops right back up. In this day of technology, if that is the biggest issue I have, then I am completely satisfied. Otherwise, the machine performs beautifully. The screen is amazing and the speed is as fast as you could ask for.

    I had an Apple ipad 2 but decided to upgrade to the air 2. I am so impressed and happy that I did so. It is fast, light, and has the same big screen while the case itself is smaller. So far, I have encountered nothing but pleasure using my ipad air 2. I even like the finger touch memory for signing on. Yes, I do love my Apple ipad air 2!

    Functionally, the iPad Air is nearly identical to last year’s model, offering only faster performance and better video chatting. But factor in design and aesthetics, and the iPad Air is on another planet. It’s the best full-size consumer tablet on the market.

    There is a good reason the iPad is regularly a bestseller in the tablet space. Its easy to use and the software seems to just work. This was bought as a replacement for my wife's bricked iPad 2. It is definitely thinner, faster and lighter for daily use. It works for her purposes of web browsing and occasional app downloads.

    Does What you need it to do

    I bought this iPad in December of 2015 and I have not had any problems with it thus far. It's a great size and Best Buy had the better deal on this model from all the other stores I looked into at the time. I would highly recommend getting a case for it because the back can get scratched up pretty easily. In terms of thinking about what tablet is best for you, the main reason I got the iPad is because I have a MacBook and an iPhone so it was really just easier for me to sync all of my information on it with iCloud. For those of you with an iPhone, you can receive texts, calls, and FaceTime on your iPad if you sync it to your iCloud, which is a really nice feature. Now, with that being said, if you don't really have any other apple products, I would recommend looking into a tablet that has USB ports and more storage than 16GB. I am really disappointed that Apple has not added any ports aside from a speaker Jack to its iPad models because that would almost eliminate the need for a computer! However, if that's not something you'd think you'd use a lot, then yes, I would recommend this model.

    The iPad was very easy to set up and transfer information from my old iPad. It is much faster than the previous version and the display is very clear and crisp. I haven't tried printing from it but I understand that it will not work with all printers. All in all a great product and well worth upgrading.

    Having had two IPads over the past several years, I saw Best Buy had a sale and took a look at the newer ones. Love it! Not only is it much lighter and faster than my older ones, but -- unlike other stores -- Best Buy had it on sale plus I was able to use my Best Buy points to further reduce the cost.

    Best ipad yet, I upgraded my iPad 4 through Best Buys upgraded program. Let me tell you, the iPad Air 2 is thin, beautiful, and fast. Did I mention fast? The display is amazing. The only negative thing I can say about it is, when you play the volume at higher levels the device vibrates, not a big deal.

    I absolutely love my iPad Air2! Size wise it is large enough for reading e-mails, banking, face booking and gaming, while it is also small and light enough to carry easily. I have not run out of battery and use several hours daily.

    This is my wife's 3rd iPad (original and 1st get mini before). She LOVES going back to the bigger screen especially with the lighter device and retina. When she realized it also had touch ID she stopped letting me play with it!

    The new iPad air 2 is faster than any other iPad has ever been. Thinner and light as 4 feathers too. I sometimes forget I'm carrying it in my book bag. The addition of the 8mp camera makes this tablet the perfect one for family, students, and really any tech aficionados shopping for such a product.

    The ipad air is worth the money if this is your first ipad. If you already have a previous version of the ipad, there is no significant difference other than the weight, speed, and display quality The finger print ID unlock is unique from other tablets and it works. The ipad is still user friendly.
