I think the iPad Air is amazing. It's fast, it's lightweight, the colors and screen quality are so sharp and clear. It's easy to use, very intuitive, syncs flawlessly with other Apple devices. I know tablets these days are going to be expensive, and this one is a little bit more because it's lightweight, but I just wish it wasn't so much, especially when it won't last forever! I also wish that it was a bit grippy-er in the back, because I don't have a case on it and when I hold it, sometimes it's so smooth that it slides off my hand. Not a big deal though.

I purchased two IPads at the same time and the price is what made me go ahead and buy two. The size and weight of the new Air IPads makes it easy to carry and use. And dont get me started on the picture and video quality. Its a must have

The iPad Air is a big improvement over the prior generation iPads with a retina display. It's much thinner and lighter than before and the A7 runs everything fast and very smooth. For the price, you can't find a better tablet out there.

As always Apple products are high quality; they look and feel as such. This iPad Air is much lighter and thinner than the original iPad while maintaining the same quality and performance standard you'd come to expect from Apple.

It is a great product. Very light, excellent screen, thin, appealing design BUT:
The lack of memory card slot forces to spent extra hundreds of dollars for the 128GB, just to allow the kids to have a few movies in HD to watch in the car or everywhere else. Basically staying home is the only way to access your library of movies, songs and pictures without draining your wallet and still with a physical limit that even money cannot buy. This is a serious enough limitation that would be easily solved by the presence of the memory card slot and/or USB port.
Expensive indispensable gadgets to fully utilizes the available features.
Still not available a paper thin keyboard like the one introduced with the Microsoft Surface over one year ago.
The so loved iOS is very rigid allowing zero flexibility to anyone with a decent computer knowledge. The impossibility to delete single pictures synchronized with a computer folder forces to drain even more of the so precious memory.
It is a great product for a computer illiterate clientele.

This was a Christmas gift for my wife. She is allergic to new technology. That said, if I set it up for her, she loves it. She uses it for email, web surfing, social media and studying. I also added the Belkin Ultimate Bluetooth keyboard which works seamlessly. The hardware is super fast and responsive. I found the setup intuitive and because of experience with the phones, I flew through it. I like that it's sooooo much lighter than the other iPads. Really, it only means that she's more likely to take it with her with the keyboard attached.

I love my new Air; traded up from the iPad 2. I like the smaller sides and the weight is perfect for its size. I wish I would of spent the money for the bigger size (storage), but even the smaller size performs well. Thanks Apple!

The ipad air is very easy to use. I'm using it for class since we have ebooks. Reading on it is even better than reading on a book. You can read in the dark, make the letters bigger, highlight, etc. Perfect size as well.

Bought this for my elderly mom and she loves it. It's really light and the display is beautiful. It's an 'Apple' so I know it's user friendly and top quality. I have always had positive purchasing experiences at Best Buy too.

i have an original and now the Air. The Air is a much lighter and smaller profile than the original I-PAD while retaining the same screen size. The performance seems about the same to me though. Its just a lighter package.

It's just as I expected. I am very happy with this purchase. i love Apple products and find them easy to use. The camera takes clear pics. And the weight is so light which is a plus if I hold it for any length of time.

I bought one of these for my wife. I didn't think I would like it as much as I did. I like the screen size (vs working on my phone or full size screens). It's lightweight. Thin screen. Like the compatibility.

I upgraded from the ipad 2. The Air is a lot faster running and switching between apps, as well as with its internet connection. It is also a little smaller and a lot lighter, making it easier to handle. The only disappointing thing about it to me was that Apple didn't include the fingerprint scanner on it like they did the iPhone 5S. Seems to me like they had the capability to do so but chose not to. But that is my only complaint, nothing about what is actually on the Air has been bad or disappointing to me.

This tablet was purchased to use for school. It does the job exceedingly well. Pairing up a keyboard via Bluetooth makes short work of assignments. Afterwards it handles Netflix like a pro for some downtime.

The lightness, sleek design, user-friendliness and outstanding display are just some of the great things about the i-Pad Air. I wish though, that Apple would give more memory for the price. Comparably priced Windows OS tablets provide a lot more memory. At least if there were internal options for expansion, other than the external (and possibly less secure) I-cloud, it would be a great enhancement.
