Perfect Balance of Power and Portability - The iPad Air 5

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2024

Style: WiFiSize: 64GBColor: PinkConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase

I recently purchased the iPad Air 5, and it has quickly become an essential part of my daily routine. Here’s why this device stands out:

**Design and Build Quality:**
The iPad Air 5 is a masterpiece of design. It’s ultra-thin and lightweight, with a premium aluminum body that feels solid and elegant. The 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display is breathtaking, offering vibrant colors and sharp details. The addition of Touch ID in the top button is both convenient and secure.

**Performance:**
With the powerful M1 chip, the iPad Air 5 handles everything I throw at it with ease. Whether it’s multitasking, gaming, or running demanding apps, the performance is smooth and fast. I’ve experienced zero lag, even with intensive tasks like video editing.

**Software and Features:**
Running on iPadOS, the iPad Air 5 offers a seamless and intuitive user experience. The wide range of apps available on the App Store means I have all the tools I need for work and play. Compatibility with the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) and Magic Keyboard turns this tablet into a versatile powerhouse, perfect for both creativity and productivity.

**Battery Life:**
The battery life is excellent, easily lasting a full day of heavy use. Whether I’m working, streaming, or browsing, I rarely worry about running out of power.

**Storage:**
The 64GB model provides sufficient storage for everyday use. With cloud storage options like iCloud, Google Drive, and Dropbox, managing files and space is convenient. However, if you plan to store a lot of media or large apps, you might want to consider a higher storage option.

**Connectivity:**
Featuring Wi-Fi 6 and optional 5G connectivity, the iPad Air 5 ensures fast and reliable internet access. The USB-C port is a fantastic addition, allowing for faster charging and data transfer.

**Value:**
The iPad Air 5 offers incredible value for its price. It bridges the gap between the standard iPad and the more expensive Pro models, delivering high-end features at a more accessible price point. It’s an excellent choice for students, professionals, and anyone looking for a premium tablet experience.

In conclusion, the iPad Air 5 is a phenomenal device that excels in design, performance, and functionality. It has exceeded my expectations in every way and is an ideal choice for anyone in the market for a new tablet. Highly recommended!

Updated review: 3 months in and still LOVE it

Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2023

Style: WiFi + CellularSize: 256GBColor: PurpleConfiguration: Without AppleCare+Verified Purchase

This iPad is compatible with the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) which I strongly preferred over all the other pencils, so it was important to me to find an iPad that was compatible with that particular pencil. That pencil will magnetically attach to the iPad and will charge from the iPad rather than having to connect a charger to the pencil, so I thought that was neat.

I use this iPad mainly for digital art, note taking, and writing books. It gets used for a 3-6 hours everyday and I always leave it turned on 24/7 and I only end up having to charge it every 3-4 days. I take it everywhere with me because while it’s not very small, it’s still smaller than any laptop and will fit in a large purse or tote that I carry around daily lol. It’s great for graphic designers, digital artists, and/or students who need to take notes, study, do projects, or write papers (get a keyboard case for typing) and so much more.

When drawing and making my digital art, the pencil glides across the screen so smoothly like an ink pen on paper, there is no LAG, no funky looking results or anything when drawing, everything comes out the exact same way that I draw it on the screen. And this is way better than buying a graphic tablet and having to hook it up to a laptop or PC. I haven’t had a laggy experience with doing anything on the iPad at all so far. Everything loads up and syncs up quite quickly I just love it soooo much. I got the wifi+cellular one but I don’t use the cellular connection, only the wifi connection. But I got cellular anyway in case I change my mind one day if I find that relying heavily on wifi everywhere I go, just to use my iPad, is no longer an option. But I probably won’t though since my phone has a hotspot and majority of the time I just connect it to that if I’m not at home to use wifi, still works like a charm.

I am very pleased with my purchase and this was 100% worth the money. I do wish I had more storage though, I got the 256GB one but I wish they made this model with 1TB or 2TB storage.. But I’m not complaining because I haven’t nearly run out of storage or anything, I’m just afraid that I will create so many files or download so many apps that one day I MIGHT actually run 🏃‍♂️ out 😅 but that day is probably a long way away.
