    The iPad Air 3rd generation is everything you’ve done to expect from an iPad. The 10.5” screen is bright and crisp and provides the perfect amount of real estate to easily switch between apps, conduct conference calls, browse the web, and read and compose emails with ease. Hardware quality is excellent, just as you would expect from an Apple product. Battery life lasts multiple days without charging, through moderate usage. This specific unit was purchased as a means for my 94 year old grandmother to stay in touch with family through social distancing measures. The cellular option allows her to FaceTime as well as send and receive photos and messages without having to have internet connectivity at home. For a small extra free on a monthly phone bill, it was well worth the investment! If you are looking for the fastest and most functional iPad without paying the Pro price tag, this is the iPad for you. A huge pro is that TouchID and the 3.5mm headphone jack still exist on this model. Absolutely necessary for older individuals who might have difficulty with hearing, and won’t want to fuss with either Bluetooth headphones or setting up Face ID on a pro model. Highly recommended for anyone who wants the best iPad for the most reasonable price!

    What's to say that's new about iPads? Apple re-invented the format and it just gets better with each iteration. We bought two for use as monitor/control units for our drone operations. Extremely fast and bright enough even for most day operations. Great battery life. And a screen that just can't be beat.

    While buying this at my local store was a complete nightmare I do have to say this iPad is truly great. It is really light and runs faster than the other iPad's I've owned. We brought it camping with us last weekend and the battery life went beyond my expectations.

    What can you say. A well built portable tablet device that gets the job done, is fast and of high quality build. I have had this now for almost two years "on the road" and it works great to this day. It works just as good as it did when I first opened it up two years ago. It's a workhorse.

    Love this iPad Air. I had an iPad mini (probably 1st or 2nd edition) and this blows that away! I was going to get the iPad 7th gen but it didn’t make sense when this one had a better processor.
