    Wonderful, lightweight, fast processing new iPad. I debated on the Air vs the standard iPad with the price difference and I love the image quality of the screen of the iPad Air I decided to purchase. It will also assist me with work when I take it to use as a tablet. I'm excited to see what the new iPadOS will bring to make the iPad function more as a laptop. I paired this with the new Apple Smart Keyboard and it's a perfect combination! Quick connectivity and quality response time between the new Air and keyboard.

    This is one of the beat purchase I’ve made for my husband for Father’s Day!!! Hands down this iPad is the best so far!!! The graphics are amazing, as is the camera quality. The battery upgrade is outstanding as well as the storage capacity! I highly recommend this iPad! Buying online through the Best Buy App is quick and so easy. The delivery speed is second to non, even during the current COVID Pandemic, my package arrived on time and within only 4 days from my purchase date!

    A better Apple

    As with most Apple products the products get better and better. I don’t use all the features available on the air, but I will say the screen quality is amazing. I’ve started using it as a television while I’m performing tasks in rooms away from a tv such as cooking, cleaning, folding laundry, etc. A negative—the camera seems to take a few seconds to focus. Up close detailed images can easily be blurry compared to my 3 year old iPad; however, with patience the image quality is superior.

    Best iPad for remote learning

    I bought this iPad Air for my son for his remote school work. And I made the best decision. This iPad works best for his math class where he can use an apple pencil on the Nearpod app. It is very snappy with all the other school apps he uses on this iPad. I chose to get this over the other smaller less expensive ones because of the bigger size of the screen and faster performance.

    Laptop Replacement!

    This effectively replaced my 2011 MacBook Pro! For someone who simply browses the internet, shops on amazon and shares photos.. this iPad is way better than using a heavy laptop! Combined with a smart keyboard, I am still able to use word processing like Microsoft Word and Apple Pages to type up documents take notes. I always thought a tablet could never replace a laptop, but I was very wrong. I enjoy this light weight alternative and can't believe I waited this long to switch!

    I was torn between buying this versus the 12.9 pro. I wanted a larger viewing screen than the older iPad I had. Once I realized that this newer version was larger than the old, my decision was made. Glad I went this route over the 12.9 pro because a lot of the reviews on them stated how bulky they were. The size of this is perfect for every day use. The images are sharper and it's much faster than my older one. And obviously the price difference is rather material as well. Very satisfied.

    Upgraded from the iPad mini4 . Apart from the size difference the iPad Air is so much faster and smother when navigating all my open windows . As well as the battery life seems to last so much longer. As for the picture definition is a huge upgrade , videos and games look so amazing .

    My bride had an ipad but it was several years old and the operating system was no longer updateable, and, most importantly, she wanted an upgrade. So this device was a Christmas present for her. She's pretty happy with it...it's faster, the battery lasts a lot longer between charges, and there are apps she can download now that wouldn't run on her old machine. It's just a better tablet in every way that can be measured.

    I am using this iPad for the last 7 months. I like the size and weight of the iPad. I am using a 64GB. The touch is very smooth. All apps run very fast. It is not like iPad pro version but it has powerful processor like ipad pro. If you are a student, need an iPad for your day to day work but you do not want to spend a lot I will definitely recommend this one. The basic iPad also perform great, but it is fast than the basic one.

    My new iPad Air is so lightweight and easy to use that I feel as if I have my office setting on the arm of my sofa. The set up was extremely easy, with it syncing with other devices in my home such as my printer without me having to do a thing. I have just what the world calls retired, but I have a need for great technology to work with to accomplish all of the things I have planned to do without sitting at a desk. My new iPad gives me that.

    This is a great machine. I bought it originally so I could FaceTime with my grandchildren during the quarantine and it was wonderful. Good size, easy to set up and use, and very nice looking. I've had it a couple of months and use it for watching Apple TV, and Amazon Prime. I have some games installed and enjoy playing them on this portable tablet rather than having to sit at a computer. Very versatile. I do recommend!
