    Excellent Tool That Nearly Replaces a Laptop!

    We've been a fan of the iPad for a while, and the iPad Air is no exception. The new model features a thinner and lighter design, great battery life, and the ever-sharp, crisp, and vibrant Retina Display. We purchased the LTE-enabled version and are always using it on the go. We're running Microsoft's CloudDrive Office Suite and use the iPad as an (almost) laptop replacement. We've paired it with a bluetooth keyboard and stylus to get the most out of our apps, and it works beautifully. Set up is a breeze, and battery life isn't an issue. With light to moderate use (so far) we get plenty of power. The iPad air is definitely a great combination of capability, compactness, and value!

    This is an upgrade from my previous iPads. I had an iPad 1 and iPad 2, and I've used every version. This is by far the best iPad I've owned or used. The light weight of the iPad makes a significantly better to use, especially for extended periods of time. The lighter weight doesn't sacrifice battery life, which is fantastic. Its also extremely quick when loading web pages or playing games. The only downside is that extensive multitasking can be slow or occasionally cause the iPad to reboot.

    I've never had an Apple product before. I've always been a fan of Windows. I have to say, I like my iPad Air a lot! I may even go to an iPhone next time. This thing is light, easy to navigate, has great battery life and has great apps. I can even get my Google Maps for navigation. I was not willing to give that up. I researched other tablets and was balking on the iPad because of the price, but I think I made a great choice.

    I really love my IPad and would recommend. It is worth the extra money to get one equip'd with cellular data. I use it much more than I thought I would. I'm also happy I went with the 32 GB instead of 16. The space fills up quickly! Battery life has been better than expected.

    As always, Apple has proved to provide an exceptional product. I added the Zagg keyboard/case which makes the tablet like a small laptop with wifi and 4g so internet use is available anywhere, anytime. The keyboard is great too as it is rechargeable, the charge lasts forever, and lights up with different color and brightness options. The IPad Air resolution is excellent and I use it often for tv and videos. I highly recommend this product.

    The new iPad Air is noticeably lighter. Battery life is long and the . Love the ease of use and functionality. Graphics are clear and brilliant. I use it daily and take it to work also. Overall it's a great personal device for work and daily life. I would recommend it highly. I also have a lap top but end up not using as much anymore. It's also great for games and viewing photos.

    I'm and Android guy with several Android devices. This is my first Apple product. I bought it for a single purpose. I like Android OS better but this serves my purpose. The iPad has a great battery life and I like the charging cable that can be plugged in easily, better than micro usb that Android uses.

    I love my new iPad Air! It was so easy learn how to use it and it helps me accomplish so many tasks! I love reading books on it because it has an easy to read screen. The battery life is good and I can go several days without changing it! It is compact, but still large enough to be complete tasks with ease.

    Amazing tablet

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

    This is my first tablet, but I'm thoroughly impressed in the 1.5 months I've owned it. The battery life is amazing (several days on standby, at least 12 hours of usage for web browsing, some videos, games#. The Apple App Store has an enormous selection of apps for whatever your needs/interests are #many of them free--I've only had to pay for 2 apps out of the ~100 I've downloaded#. The screen/image quality of the Retina screen is wonderful, and I have enjoyed watching movies and TV shows on the iPad. It is more expensive compared to other brands of tablets #maybe due to the Apple name?#, but if you are looking for a high quality tablet with a large selection of apps, this is it--especially if you already own an iPhone, as you can use the same apps and the two devices can share data with each other over iCloud. I also considered the iPad Mini 2 but the screen size was too small for me to watch movies on #especially with the black bars on the top and bottom of many movies).
