    We love the screen size and it's lightweight. My 5yo is using it for many creative and fun learning games. We use it for just about everything. It would be able to replace a laptop, however using certain apps just isn't there yet functionally like spreadsheet programs (excel or numbers). Quick books requires a monthly subscription and would end up costing us too much. But for fun things like internet, movies and games, it's great!

    I just got a 5.3 lbs laptop....however, the iPad is so much easier to use and move about with. I can do FaceTime with my family, Glad my husband got it for me for Christmas.

    I was attracted to Best Buy for this purchase by the discount offered and the availability of the product at a conveniently located store in my area. The product is a well known commodity and we used it to replace an original and very well used I Pad; couldn't be happier with it's performance but am dismayed that the appropriate accessories are priced so high .

    Love it! This is great for school...much better than smaller tablets. The iBooks app is great for my school books, there are great note taker apps(buy a fine point stylus), and great apps for recording lecture. Lightweight and easy to use. I chose this over other tablets due to the combination of screen size and apps (matlab, iprint, Microsoft word free edition, iBooks, note taker, etc). Very happy with my decision.

    I upgraded from the IPad 1 to the IPad Air and the transition has been very easy. I'm not exactly computer savvy but Apple makes a great product that's very user friendly.

    My son needed an apple product to do some of his school work on. I thought the iPad was the perfect size to view and complete homework. He loves using his new iPad.

    Bought for our granddaughter's graduation present to take to college with her this fall. She plans on taking it to classes for notes, etc instead of her laptop. More compact.

    I've never had a tablet before so can't really compare this to previous versions, but I love it. It is so much better than trying to look stuff up on my tiny phone.

    This tablet has performed as I had expected and needed. I thought about the iPad Air 2, but saved over $100 with this one, and am glad I didn't spend the extra $$.

    I finally upgraded from the first iPad. I've been waiting for the new model as the original was starting to slow with increased app complexity and web traffic. The iPad Air is in another league from the original. Fast processing, sharp graphics and camera are features that should drive all those struggling with olr models to upgrade soon.

    The IPad Air is so much lighter it makes older versions seem like bricks, but still feels sturdy. I am no techno whiz and have always found the iPads easy to use and intuitive. Set up was a breeze . With one phone call to Apple Support all my stuff was transferred and I was ready to go. The staff at Best Buy was great. Helped with selection and price-matched, so I got a great deal from the store I like to use.

    Excellent Tablet

    This is my first iPad since the original back in 2010. Apple's taken some big steps forward with the Air. It's remarkably thin and light - finally, an iPad that's comfortable to hold with one hand. The new processor and SoC very much shine as well. That said, having only 1gb of memory may come back to bite the iPad Air a year or two down the line, especially with the 64-bit iOS7. All in all, worth the Apple Tax.
