    This iPad is my first and don't know why I haven't got one sooner. Works well with aviation apps such as Garmin Pilot and weight and balance for the aircraft I fly.

    The iPad Air is a perfect device for anyone who is still living with their 1st thru 3rd generation iPad. The design, the size, the battery life, and addition to Apple's Office Suite iLife, it was a perfect package for anyone who has experience with the iPad and those who would like to join the iOS life. Pair this with a keyboard case/cover and you truly have a functional laptop/tablet combo... Totally recommend it!

    As a first time tablet user, I was hesitant to spend the extra $ (comparatively) for an Apple product. However, I'm pleased that I did given the ease of use, overall quality and stability of the product. Likewise, when I had a question about the product, Apple customer services was top notch. The one downsize is the cost of upgrading to more memory and the fact that can only be done via your initial decision.

    Expensive but worth it

    The iPad Air is a great device that lives up to the hype. There is an elegance in the simplicity of design of the iPad and many of the apps. It is very easy to use once you get used to it, but it can be a little confusing if you're new to iPads and iPhones. For example, the camera app works really well, but zooming in by pinch-to-expand wasn't immediately obvious to me, even though I'm used to pinching to expand things like pictures on other devices. The number of apps for the iPad is really amazing, but it's way too easy to spend a lot of money before you know it! Even "free" apps often end up costing money when you do in-app purchases to add functionality missing from the base version. The competition is slowly chipping away at Apple's lead - especially price-wise - but the iPad still rules.

    I bought this for myself as soon as they came out. It is slick! Lightning fast, great iPad features. I have used the iPad 1 and 2. This has all the things I loved about the iPad, plus the newer features. I am able to do more with the apps I own. It is lighter in weight than the old one and has some great new cases to pick from.

    Apple did well, iPad Air is slim compared to iPad 4. Strongly recommend a rugged cover to protect your device, specially if you will let the kids play with it.

    LOVE the iPad! It's so useful to read newspapers, magazines, books, and emails. You can adjust the size of the typeface so there is no text that cannot be read.

    I went into Best Buy looking for a replacement for an IPad2. I can't remember the salesperson's name but he was excellent, answered all my questions, suggested a few other things to buy in conjunction with the iPage Air and answered other tech questions that I had. He was very knowledgable about the iPad as well as other technology like the Google Chromebook. It was exactly what a technology buying experience should be: useful information, no high pressure and the ability to explain the pros and cons of the equipment and all provided by a real face to face human exchange.

    Open the box, follow prompts to set up, then get the user manual online. If you are not so computer knowledgable READ the manual! It should tell you all you need to know and more. The Ipad Air is more tablet than most will use and has great apps available. A screen protector and case so you don't damage it is very worthwhile. I would buy it again and can't imagine what Apple will do to make it better.
