    Transforms the experience of using an iPad. The response is much faster and apps work better. It is so light it makes using it when holding on to it much easier. Best Buy had a great deal of $100 off and I am glad I took advantage of it!

    I have never owned an iPad or any type of tablet before this and it was easy to setup and start using. I really enjoy the large screen and it's so light. Also, the touch ID is a timesaver.

    The new iPad Air 2 is lighter and faster. Apple IOS is easy to use interface and applications make it great for any age group. Photos looks great on improve screen and new feature to make phone calls from iPad over the iPhone is awesome. Love it.

    Good hardware, hampered by software

    First off, I am primarily and Android user, which gives me a different perspective on the device. That said, this iPad is a nice, beautiful, first rate device. The fit and finish are very high-quality. The only nitpicks I have about the hardware are the viewing angle of the screen and the touch sensitivity. With the anti-glare coating, the screen does have a slight pinkish hue at angles and isn't as vibrant as previous versions at the same angles. Head-on, the screen looks great. The touch interface seems a little wonky and quite often not sensitive enough. On many occasions, I've had to repeatedly tap links or "buttons" to get them to engage. Other than that, the battery life is great! The weight and feel are really nice. A beautiful product. Now, where it all starts to go downhill. I've not used iOS in quite some time, so I was expecting maybe too much with all the tremendous version upgrades that Apple is so proud of. iOS needs multi-user profile capability. It is ridiculous that a device like the iPad does not have this capability. Android has had this capability for quite some time. I'm sure Apple will "invent" this feature soon, but for now, plan on switching accounts on a per application basis, or actually logging out and log back in on some apps. I guess if you're used to the one-button, minimalist approach, you don't know or care about what you're missing. However, again, as an Android user, this lack of functionality is just that, "lacking". Maybe I'll get more used to it as I work with the device. But it is just limiting in feel and execution. iOS Mail is bad. After a few minutes of frustration with a lack of features and clunky operation, I loaded Gmail on the device and it was much nicer, although, the iOS tablet version is missing the ability to swipe to previous and next email messages. Pretty much same experience with the sorry excuse for a maps app. Luckily Google Maps solved that problem as well. On the plus side, my wife loves Garage Band! To be honest, if I had it to do all over again and I didn't need an iOS device for development, I would buy an Android tablet instead...probably the Nexus 9. But, this is a good device -- probably a great one for people who are used to, and like, the limitations of iOS. If it at least had multi-user profile capability, it would go leaps and bounds towards usability as a family device and would make this a great tablet for any user. Come on Apple, even Netflix has this capability! Hurry up and "invent" it!

    I take great delight in my new iPad Air 2. My original iPad could no longer be updated, so many apps no longer functioned well. The camera works very well and the rapid response time makes it an intuitively useful tool for communication and fun.

    Air 2 beats the Mini 2 hands down! Screen quality is unparalleled compared to my mini 2, and much faster and snappier. Anti-glare is also a plus. Love the larger screen size. Weight is almost the same as my mini 2. Couldn't be happier!!!

    I have had my Air 2 for a week now. I was not sure about upgrading to the Air 2, but after talking with the sales rep and seeing how quickly his operated at the store I was hooked. I got mine home and was up and running in no time flat. I love the lightness and ease of use. The only problem I have had so far is finding a decent case for it. Because it is slimmer than the iPad Air it doesn't fit the standard cases already on the market. I have not had a chance to return to Best Buy and see if they have gotten any other ones in yet. It was a great investment.

    The iPad is great, very thin and lightweight with a big screen. Best buy was Short staffed around the holidays and it was hard to get help. They also did not have any good cases in stock leading me to order from another company online.

    All positives with upgrading. Lighter, better camera, faster processing speed. What's not to like?! If you're an Apple and ipad fan, you will stay one. I am and I love everything about it and utilize it much more than my desktop and laptop.

    My husband had an old tablet. I replaced it for Christmas with the iPad Air. It took a little getting used to because it was his first apple product. But now he loves it! It is so light weight and user friendly. It made a great gift!
