    I had to replace my 4th Gen iPad because it died. Two years old and it just died. This is not typical of iPads and I tried not to hold this failure against them all. I found it difficult to not have an iPad, so I purchased an iPad Air (didn't have the money for an Air 2 because I had just bought one for my husband for Christmas). I am very happy with my iPad Air. It is quick, works well and is smaller than my 4th Gen. I was disappointed that the Air didn't fit my old Kensington Keyboard Cover, but was able to find one on Amazon for a reasonable price. I also bought Apple Care. It added quite a bit to the price, but my experience with the 4th Gen convinced me it is worth the price.

    I got this when bestbuy is having this on sale for $499. I also get a 10% coupon from local post office. It's a great product at this price. Much faster and lighter than my IPad3.

    The price was a big deterent but once you can overcome that you're in for a full iPad experience. Even better than the previous versions I used is the better display, smaller size & lighter weight. The battery appears to last longer and the ever Apple Store is also a big advantage. It's also very kids friendly. On the down side is the quality of the saved photos and the malleable aluminium body which can actually bend into a curve if you put too much weight on it. Overall, I think it's a great product for its generation.

    Best. iPad. Ever.

    Although not a game changer like the original iPad, which created a whole new product category, the iPad Air is simply the best iPad I have ever had. And I own or have had iPad 1, iPad 2, iPad 3, the original iPad mini, and an iPad mini with retina screen. The Air is light and thin enough that except for those times when I literally want to put an iPad in my coat pocket, I would rather have the larger screen and full color gamut of the Air than then reduced screen and more limited color gamut of the iPad mini with retina screen. Moreover, it is so much faster, lighter, and thinner than prior full-size iPads. Lastly, the bezel is thinner on the sides as well. All of which makes for about as much of a home run as possible short of the original's creating the tablet product market. Apple simply knocked it out of the park with this one. On a related note, new leather smart cases are also a hit. Good quality leather and fit like a glove that doesn't add much bulk to the form factor, a marked improvement on both counts from prior Apple cases. So much so that I haven't even thought about third party cases this time. In sum, Apple, there is in substitute (at least for tablets).

    iPad Air is a great product. The size, weight and functionality differences between it and the more expensive iPad Air2 are not nough for me to spend the higher amount. I am delighted that I chose the iPad Air over the iPad Air2. Ordering and delivery from Best Buy was easy and efficient.

    I made the mistake of upgrading to System 8.1 on my old iPad, which slowed it down to the point of annoyance. So glad I bought the iPad Air. The retina display is awesome & it's so much faster!

    You can't go wrong buying this unbelievable piece of technology! Compared to the other tablets, this iPad air really rocks! It's lightweight, easy to use and has superfast processing speed. Even at full retail, it's a great purchase! However, it's always good to wait for a Best Buy special sale!

    This is definitely the best ipad yet. It is a lot lighter than the previous version and almost half the thickness. Screen size still same size, though the side bezels are thinner. With the new processor, it is also faster than the previous version.

    When I think I was going to get it for my new year gift. I was more than happy to owe it for my school use. It is light and thin than the last generation and also easy to use it anywhere at school or work. I chose to get it because it is convenient to carry around in my bag. Overall, I would strongly remmomend the others people to owe it if they could afford.

    I love apple products but I feel that for the price you should get more memory and features. It's like buying a computer without the space. I do love how easy it is to use and the quality but apple needs to step up its game or bring down the prices.
