Apple iPad Air (10.5-inch, Wi-Fi, 64GB) - Gold (3rd generation)

I love my new iPad, it has been a joy, and has become a big part of my workflow and working day. Don't get me wrong, despite what Apple tells you, most people who use tech for working cannot replace their PC with an iPad, that is just nonsense, there are too many limiting factors. In my world, it fits in very nicely in places where I would generally get my laptop out for things like short emails, quick browsing, messaging, access to all your online storage points, document viewing, making small mods on documents and similar stuff. It is excellent for showing other folks such mods and documents when in a meeting too, as you just pass it around the room. There are a few super bonuses too, like being able to write and make notes on stuff, you need a pen of course, but this was something I wanted from my iPad so bought one at the same time. You can also get all kinds of wonderfully crafted apps such as the new AR Apps, which work magnificently on these iPads. The screen is superb too, so watching a video and viewing images is top-notch. The only negative is that it has only two speakers and not four, though the sound is rather good even with just two. Overall it can take a bit of work to get the best from it, such as with the pen work, which is super, by the way, learning how to use the new features such as using a mouse, and a few other things, all of which are awesome if a bit quirky at first. It is a fantastic bit of kit that has made significant strides towards being more work-oriented, and with a keyboard and mouse/pen, it really can fill a lot of spaces in your digital life. For me, it bridges a gap between my main PC, from where I do most of my work that requires a lot of input and screen space and having to take my laptop out or even take it along to meetings and gatherings and on top of that, I get a decent iPad without the Pro price. Well worth considering.

Apple definitely make the best tablets, and the IPad Air 3 is definitely the best in the standard IPad range (IPad, IPad Mini, and IPad Air). The only better alternative would be the IPad Pro, which costs a lot more as serves a different purpose, to compete with Laptops and computers. The IPad Air is the best tablet on today’s market. It has a luxurious design, great battery life, brilliant size screen, etc. Might be a bit on the pricey side, but it’s definitely worth the extra money for the bigger screen, faster processor and lightweight design.

I have a quite few apple products, and the Ipad Air 3rd gen is probably the best of all of them. I paid extra for the air 3 over the standard ipad for the better quality, laminated screen with wide colour and touch tone and the display honestly is stunning. Very smooth and snappy with the powerful 6 core A12 chip. Gestures with ipad OS feel very fluid and natural. As a prime member i can now access content on kindle for free e.g marvel comics and novels for which there is a good selection. Now with the current lockdowns due covid 19 i have something to pass the time with!

This is an excellent tablet for all general uses. The photo handling and picture quality display is particularly good and provides the easiest way to store and view photos and videos. Bluetooth linking to an iPhone is also impressive. I upgraded to this iPad from an old iPad and found the procedure straightforward using iCloud backup. I also like the speed of operation and overall display quality. The iPad uses the new lightning connector which meant the photo card reader that I used with my old iPad needed to be replaced.

I bought this for drawing, which has been fantastic so far. Really love it. Sound quality is great for watching videos, it loads quick. Never had issues using facetime or video calling either. I never agreed with Apple's pricing, they are really expensive especially when adding the cost of a pen, case and screen protector on top. I found it difficult to find a case that i like and that works for my needs.

I use the product for personal use and find it very convenient to take with me or use around the home for both fun and receiving and answering emails. It is easy to transport and charges within a few hours from empty.

I bought this for my 78 year old husband to replace an IPad that I purchased him some 10 years ago, that still works, but would not update from version 9. Something, to 13. Something, which I needed to download some things. He downloads his newspaper every day to read, which is especially good when we are on holiday abroad. The new one is obviously much better and quicker to download, the only thing he has trouble with is there is no button to lock the screen either landscape or portrait, which he find annoying.

Expensive but the saying goes "you get what you pay for". Excellent update to the ipad Air range (I had an iPad Air 2 for 4 years prior to this improved updated version). The iPad Air 3 is a good size screen, easy to use and keep uptodate. Wifi experience is faultless and battery life is great too. Colour representation of photos and video to my aging eyes are all crystal clear and true to colour. After several months use now I have no hesitation in recommending the extra expense of replacing or upgrading older iPads is well worth it (managed to sell my old one for £100 toward the cost too which to me isn't bad for a four year old machine!).
