    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!

    The Value Sweet Spot in the iPad line

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

    As of this writing, and most especially if you obtain this when on sale (during the thanksgiving week BB sold this for $430), a 32G LTE-enabled iPad Air (*not* Air2) is the price-performance sweet spot in Apple's iPad line. 32G's a fair amount of storage. The Air 2 is only slightly thinner/lighter and marginally faster if at all than the Air. Do the math for yourself and patient scout for sale time.

    Great Upgrade

    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 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.

    This new iPad is faster, lighter and has a much sharper display than our older iPad. Definitely would recommend this model or the mini version.

    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 iPad Air is a wonderful machine! We chose the 32 GB just to be sure we would have room for lots of pictures of a collection, so that they will be handy when away from home. The iPad Air is so slim and that it even fits in some purses! I suggest buying a book and how to use the iPad Air. You will learn the basics quicker and be able to use more of this machine's potential. I bought a slim magnetic cover that shuts the iPad down and wakes it up instantly and doesn't take up much room (though it does add quite a bit to the weight).

    This tablet does everything I need. I no longer have a computer at home but the tablet is extremely versatile and is all i need for day to day use. Very easy to set up and use especially if you already have an iPhone. You definitely need a case, the shell is slick and hard to handle without one. Very easy to travel with compared to my old laptop. Plenty of memory for all of my photos and music

    I wanted an ereader that I could use in the sun. The iPad is a second tablet in the house but does more than my other one. It is the ereader I wanted, syncs with the iPhone and my calendars. It is lightweight and easy to travel with.

    Apple products have also proved to me how simple they are to use so I decided to purchase one for my mother-in-law as a Christmas gift. She loves it! She enjoys its simplicity and being able to easily stay in touch with her family and friends though FaceTime and iMessage. I would only recommend the 32 GB model because I think the 16 GB is not large enough to locally store your photos, apps and music.

    This is an addition to my ipad mini, and the quality of the screen and speed of the processor is really amazing! One word of caution, if you travel a lot like me and want to turn cellular data off and on, you NEED to use the prepaid (built-in) option. There are charges to activate and deactivate if you put it on your regular Verizon phone bill. There are no additional charges for prepaid service and it works very smoothly.

    Besides the photo quality of either camera being grainy and wishing it was able to be louder, everything else is great! It processes fast and really does have a beautiful picture and is smaller in actual size while the screen size is the same as an iPad 3. I recommend this product!
