Apple iPad Air 4th Generation Cellular - Sky Blue

The latest iPad has the same bottom-firing speakers as its predecessor, and they’re not great. With a maximum volume of 84db, they’re just loud enough to fill a room. The sound quality is best described as tinny, without a hint of bass. Fortunately, there’s a 3.5mm headphone jack and Bluetooth 4.2 for wireless alternatives. Between the speakers is a Lightning port for charging. The entry-level iPad is Apple’s only tablet that hasn’t been upgraded to USB-C. That said, Apple doesn't make you buy extra accessories to charge it—you get a 20W adapter and a USB-C-to-Lightning cable in the box.

This was an upgrade from my old iPad so I am familiar with the interface and Apps. It arrived in high quality, sleek packaging which was minimal. Set up was straight forward and the iPad led the way with clear instructions. Everything that was on my old iPad (in Cloud) was simply transferred to the new one. This is why I use Apple products (and keep them till almost obsolete) because I need clear, obvious, user friendly design. The device in black is very slim, light and high quality feel. It's simple and elegant in design. When using it is quick to respond and the fingerprint security (plus password) is very good. The screen is clear and doesn't strain my eyes easily. I'm not a tech savvy whizz and I don't play games so I can only comment on basic, everyday, use ... MoreThis was an upgrade from my old iPad so I am familiar with the interface and Apps.

For an easy to use, quality, light and very responsive tablet that is easy on the eyes I have no hesitation in recommending this iPad

Dont like the Change to C style cable

The thing I didnt like was both ends of the charging cable is C style. I would have preferred at least one end usb or the style of the generation before because the money I invested to run my phones and other iPads dont work with it. I would have reconsider buying if I knew that. So Apple needs to make something more universal or compatible. Its tiring have to buy extra cable. I do Enjoy extra speakers and clearer picture. This expensive generation just got more expensive because of the change. I will definitely inform others if they are going to up grade.

Great Value IPad Air 4

This is a great value iPad Air 4th generation. It has long battery life and good quality screen. When paired with the Apple Magic Keyboard it readily transforms into a laptop. Since it is attached to the keyboard through strong magnet, it can easily be detached to transform it back to a tablet. The Apple Pencil 2 provides the interface of writing, scribbling, sketching, drawing and painting that no Macbook can do. It has touch ID that makes is comfortable to use and provides personal security. It easily connects to wifi and wireless printer to fulfill any printing job. Its portability is a great advantage that you can take this as an everyday carry to work and easily accessible at home. Although purchased in used condition it still looks and feels brand new.

Great deal, but delivery condition varies greatly

From reading the reviews, you could either get a nearly brand new iPad in an OEM box or something more like the used iPad you might buy second hand. I gambled and came up just short. My iPad Air 4 arrived in a generic cardboard box without the original packaging, wrapped in a very sturdy bubble wrap. Overall, I would say the device was in good B Grade condition, with some very minor but noticeable wear. The body was in perfect shape but the display had multiple light scratches around the edges. The OEM charging brick and cable were included, and there were still 9 months left on the warranty. Overall a pretty good buy, but I was spoiled by the like new Gen 5 iPad Pro 12.9" that I previously bought from Walmart as a refurb, which arrived in an OEM box and had a full ... MoreFrom reading the reviews, you could either get a nearly brand new iPad in an OEM box or something more like the used iPad you might buy second hand.

Clearly that doesn't affect the function, but I'm picky and it makes me nervous to think someone didn't baby the iPad before returning it!

NOT user-friendly, plagued with issues

Very disappointed with this product. My dad needed an iPad because his old one had a screen so cracked the Apple people couldn’t fix it. So we went to Costco to look for one. At the time, supply chain issues left us with only the iPad Air 4 available. We got him that iPad because he needed it for work but now I am regretting this purchase. Having no home button makes it hard for him to use the iPad (even the on-screen home button is a headache). This morning his onscreen keyboard simply would not appear so I restarted it and *surprise*it worked. This is only the latest frustration I’ve had helping him with this; unfortunately getting him a new, easier to use iPad is too expensive. Either way, I can’t wait for him to get a different, more user-friendly tablet, iPad ... MoreVery disappointed with this product.

Now's the time to pick up the previous gen

The 4th generation Air is currently at the sweet spot of the iPad lineup. No, it doesn't have the M1 chip, but you can get more storage at a better price, and the A14 Bionic chip is no slouch. The 4th gen has the same styling as the newest version, and if you can get it on a good sale, it's a much better value. If you need what the 5th gen offers, then go for it, I'm just pointing out the value proposition of this one.This iPad can handle anything you can throw at it: web surfing, document creation, even photo editing. The fully laminated screen feels solid, and adding the Apple Pencil completes the package. I upgraded from an 8th gen iPad, and I'm enjoying the extra speed and overall smoothness. If you're ready for your next iPad, I highly recommend you consider ... MoreThe 4th generation Air is currently at the sweet spot of the iPad lineup.

Please read!!! Buy at your risk...

I have no idea why this product is rated so high. Please read this, walmart is an extremely unreliable retail seller. Apple care was still available which I assume meant it was relatively new. However the battery did not work, whatsoever. I called apple support and they said I had to replace the battery. When plugged in, it would make the sound indicating it was being charged, however the iPad did not show that it was charging on screen. It stayed at 0%, 24/7. The iPad kept on crashing and resetting even when it was on the charger. So, we are currently trying to get a replacement. The replacement process is extremely slow... sent them back the iPad on the 25th, and it's now the 29th, yet has not even shipped. Hopefully they don't accidentally charge us extra, or end ... MoreI have no idea why this product is rated so high. Please read this, walmart is an extremely unreliable retail seller.

Second to none!

This iPad was purchased for a friend who was upgrading from a standard iPad. My friend was aware that I frequently use Very to purchase Apple products, and receive great cash back offers, and that the products are often also reduced in price.I myself already have the iPad Air, as does my father and another friend, both of whom I gave recommendations to.I originally upgraded from the iPad Air 3 to the 4 simply for the larger screen. On the Air 4 there is no longer a thick border resulting in full screen experience. The iPad is operated by a small button at the top that also has finger print recognition. I’ve not noticed much of a difference other than the screen size between the 3rd and 4th generations, although the 4th gen is a slightly different shape. ... MoreThis iPad was purchased for a friend who was upgrading from a standard iPad.

I’ve not noticed much of a difference other than the screen size between the 3rd and 4th generations, although the 4th gen is a slightly different shape. Operationally wise the 4th has an A14 chip rather than the A12 on the 3rd gen which makes it slightly faster, and the screen is Liquid Retina rather that just retina on the Air 3. It’s a great iPad and although I was more than happy with my Air 3 I’m pleased I upgraded for the larger screen size and cool new colour. I would highly recommend the iPad Air 4 and although I really only use my iPad for browsing the internet, email communication and watching TV/movies but I’m sure the iPad has huge capacity to do a multitude of things I will never use it for.

iPad Air 4 generation

The iPad Air 4 is a very impressive compared to the earlier models. The new screen size makes it feel much larger in every respect, along with the latest operating software very responsive. I love the new styling, square edge. Although operating the iPad has changed in certain areas compared to earlier models as always with Apple products it is very intuitive. I would point out that as these iPads get larger they also get heavier so keep that in mind if youre out and about with them. The new iPad Pro models are extremely heavy. In conclusion an extremely enjoyable/impressive addition to my MacBook Pro.
