    I must admit I have been won over to Apple. I had been watching the iPad world from afar. I decided to become an iPad owner and haven't looked back. I love my iPad Air. I have only had it for about a month and have found no fault with it. It is easy to use and very versatile.

    The iPad Air is so light. I think probably due to the small bezel size. The retina display is crystal clear. Processing speed is best yet. Not negative to say about this product.

    What's great? The retina display, speed, reliability, design, ease of use, compatibility with products like my A/V receiver for wirelessly streaming audio. What's not so great? iOS7 has some strange quirks - I still haven't figured out how to center my wallpaper despite fiddling with the parallax settings. I generally don't like using Android, but my Galaxy S4 has some features that I wish my iPad did: Swipe keyboard, split screen capability, and touchless operation to name a few. But overall, I like the way the iPad integrates with the rest of my hardware, and my life. I really appreciate the industrial design - I love that its made of glass and metal. It is not perfect, but its really good at almost everything.

    This new iPad Air is great and so much lighter than the iPad 2 and 3. What I liked the most is the picture quality and the speed is great, which depends on your internet speed.

    Thin, light and with 32GB powerful. I use it daily and it lasts all day long. I can watch movies with a clear crisp picture, play video games and search the web with ease.

    As always this iPad delivers on performance and function. It is ultrathin and light. IOS 7 runs well on it and the battery life is improved over the 3 and 4. It also does not get at hot as the 3 and 4 did. I wish Apple had added the finger print reader but oh well. It is still a great tablet.

    I would not go lower than 32GB and would recommend 64GB if you can afford it. Still a good tablet, very light & thin, easy to carry around.

    Not much to review. It's pretty much the same as the last version, only a little bit lighter and faster. The software's still the same.

    iPad, my introduction to Apple

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

    This is my first endeavor into the land of Apple. I do not adjust well to new things, however, this iPad is so easy to use. The screen quality is brilliant. The access to internet is instantaneous. A great asset in watching TV, it allows me to look up any questions that may arise while engrossed in a show/movie (i.e. actors, historical references, etc.) . I also use it in the kitchen for quick references to recipes or to play music and/or movies. Apps are easily added or removed. I can also keep current in emails if I am away from my desktop. I am still learning all the things the iPad is capable of with enthusiasm.

    When first announced, it was said that this weighs approximately 1 pound and 80% faster than its predecessor. I can say that it is lighter, in part, due to the thinness. I'm amazed at the processing power of this unit. It utilizes the same processor as the iPhone 5 (A7). I only wish that it offered a slot for either a USB or a mini SD card. Considering that many would love to be able to load their movies or music on an SD card, it would make this unit even MORE useful. (Are you listening Apple?)

    I bought the iPad air due to health issues that made it difficult for me to hold my iPad 2. The Air is noticeably lighter and this is a great help to me. I have already noticed other improvements--a better camera, Siri works great for dictating emails and texts. Overall, this tablet works great for me with my health issues. I know there are other excellent tablets out there, but this one is perfect for me.

    After owning a 16GB ipad 4 i had to step up to a 32GB only because i had to delete and reinstall apps all the time from all the documents and data, also transferring pictures to my computer to free up space. Also love how thin and light it is compared to the Ipad 4

    Easy to manage email, surf most web pages, and order a pizza. Can hook up wireless keyboard and remove the frustration of trying to type on a touch screen. In order for this to replace your laptop you'd need a mouse though. And that isn't currently supported in any way on the current iOS. If you're looking for something to manage simple tasks from your rocking chair in front of the tv or run the app created specifically for xyz task, then this is perfect. It will not completely replace your pc like other tablets though.

    I wasn't really sure I wanted an Apple tablet, but I have to say I love it. It has exceeded my expectations and so far I have been able to do everything I need/want to do. The only drawback, I have found, is everything I have downloaded to the table is also now on my iPod. Not being an avid Apple user, I wish the set up in the tablet would include whether or not you want all of your Apple products to sync.

    Bought this during the holidays and got a good discount price. I use this in my family room for control4 and have a sleek charger stand which keeps it well charged. Not only great for apps to control home automation but I surf the web or check email.
