Now featuring an all-screen design, the Green Apple iPad Air has a 10.9″ Liquid Retina Display with a 2360 x 1640 resolution at 264 pixels per inch (ppi). The Liquid Retina Display still has all the features you expect, such as P3 wide color gamut coverage, True Tone, anti-reflective and fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coatings, 500 nits of brightness, and support for the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil (sold separately). The screen isn’t the only thing that got improved. The iPad Air now houses the A14 Bionic chip, providing the performance boost you need to handle 4K video editing, play immersive games, and more. There is also 256GB of storage capacity.
The iPad Air now features a 12MP rear camera, the same one found on the iPad Pro. The rear camera can be used to capture high-res photos and 4K videos. The iPad Air also has a 7MP FaceTime HD camera as well as stereo speakers when in landscape mode. For connectivity, the iPad Air features dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Bluetooth 5.0. You still get Touch ID with the iPad Air. It is now integrated into the top button. Touch ID uses your fingerprint to provide a safe and secure way to unlock your iPad Air as well as log into apps and use Apple Pay. Apple has replaced the Lightning connector with a USB Type-C port on the iPad Air, allowing for additional features and broader compatibility with other devices.
This iPad Air comes preloaded with iOS. Please check your device settings for the latest available update.

If you are on the fence and thinking whether or not to upgrade from an older iPad, I would strongly recommend to upgrade. Switching to this iPad from an iPad 5 was pure joy: beautifully fast processor, gorgeous screen, fast battery charging, and an attractive new design. I have nothing but good things to say about this iPad. Life’s too short to wait for a slow CPU. Buy it. You will like it. I can almost guarantee it 🙂

Coming from a 2017 iPad Pro 10.9. This iPad Air a good book reader and email checker. I needed a lot more from it, especially the flash light feature. I have poor vision and depend on the flash light to give me the extra light I need at times to walk about in the evenings around the house. Or to fix things that are in shadows. The other thing I didn’t like was no physical home button. I truly miss that. The virtual home button feature is a godsend but it gets often in the way of what I need to do onscreen so I am continuously relocating it. I cant use Siri because I can’t talk so I depend on the home button for navigation. Then there was the USB-C port for charging. Had to buy adaptors and new charging cords because my lightning ones don’t fit. I ended up giving it to my husband as a replacement for his 2014 iPad. He uses it to read and play solitaire in bed before dozing off. He too is annoyed by the lack of a physical Home button. My elderly neighbor got the exact same model to replace her 2015 ipad and she absolutely loves it. It’s a great device at a good price if you don’t need the features of an iPad or iPad Pro. Hers is paired with her iWatch and she uses her iPad Air to track her blood glucose and other health issues.

Bigger screen, better screen, faster, it’s a wonderful device. Minus – earphones, earbuds are not included. There is no way to plug in older apple earbuds. The power connector is new, so old chargers don’t work. How about more continuity Apple?

Awesome service, fast delivery and a great product. Went from a 12.9 to this 10.9 and glad I did. Very fast, easier to handle. Going to get 2 more. Thank you.

Fastest Apple device I’ve ever known. Responsiveness is near instantaneous. Works flawlessly with the Apple Pencil. I love the tap-to-take-a-note feature! Let’s see if I remember to use it. I also love that it has speakers on both sides, finally! True stereo, finally! Screen is very nice, but white temp seem warmer than other Apple devices (yes, with Night Shift off). Can’t wait to use it on the go with my a7S III.

The IPad arrived a day earlier than anticipated, always a good thing. It started and downloaded all apps and files from the older iPad we replaced. It is another marvel to join the Apple ecosphere of an I watch, iPhone, Mac, Apple TV, and the apple apps. Great stuff.

I decided to buy the iPad Air after getting back pain from reading with my laptop. It’s a nice machine but still too expensive for what it does along the measly 64gb storage capacity. Plus it’s made in China .

I wasn’t sure if it was time for my daughter to upgrade from iPad Air 2, but after she started using this iPad, it was like night and day. No lag, no waiting, and FAST operation, even with multiple apps open simultaneously. This device reminds me of the design of iPhone 4S. The unit feels sturdy and solid in your hands. The screen refresh rate in this model is 60Hz, not 120 like in iPad Pro, but the fast processor more than makes up for it. By the way, the screen is gorgeous 🙂 This was a good upgrade and money well spent, especially when using the PayBoo card from B&H.

This is more complicated than my original I-pad which I have used for the past 13 years and no assistance in learning how to use it. Also, things pop up like Apple TV, which I have no interest in and struggle to turn off. Frankly, I’m thinking about returning it.

I buy this iPad replacing my iPad 7 gen, Just something to surf the web and social media on and play the occasional game. The speakers on this thing are INCREDIBLE. So loud and full of depth, it’s great to stream music off of. Recommend this for the regular user, and with it’s new A14 Bionic processor, this thing can handle some serious multitasking for you. If you’re could not buy an iPad Pro, I recommend you consider this as an option instead, unless video editing is something you’re planning to do constantly. This iPad It has served me well so far.

Upgraded from iPad Air 2nd Gen that was showing it’s age. Migration process needs improvement. Most stuff carried over but process got hung up when it came to previously installed Apps and Photos. Had to reinstall Apps individually, transfer Photos through cable and reorganize Photo Albums because they didn’t transfer. Setbacks aside, I’m excited to work with this iPad going forward.

I purchased this to replace my aging Air 2. It is a nice upgrade. The larger screen is great and the fingerprint reader in the power button works remarkably well. Hopefully it will last as long as my Air 2 which I handed down to my daughter.

Purchased as Christmas gift for my sister. She already has a macbook pro but the iPad Air is even more portable and perfect for her to take quick notes and for sketches. Reading the news and magazines is also more enjoyable on this device than on macbooks or iphones.

I once owned the first iPad from Apple. More or less a boat anchor. However this iPad model is orders of magnitude better. Besides the very light weight and slim thickness, this iPad is very fast and in some ways noticeably faster at what it does than my 2016 MacBook Pro. This pad is a joy to use. I mainly just use it for email, web and watching video (MLB baseball games and I’d note the MLB app is just terrible and takes great patience). Overall I highly recommend this 4th generation iPad Air.
