Is 64GB sufficient?
It's fine as long as you don't install any apps, take pictures/video, and don't create any content.
The 64GB Air model exists to upsell you to the 256GB Air model or to the 128GB Pro model. It's no accident that there's no 128GB Air model.

64GB is fine for media consumption and text-based work. If you are going to use it for editing photos or videos, creating art or designing stuff you probably want more space. If you're used to cheap Android tablets this has much more horsepower so you can do the heavier stuff. But even then you can use cloud storage or an external USB-C drive for file storage, it's just less convenient.
You're contradicting your statements. You said unlike cheap Android tablets this can do heavier stuffs but in that case 64gb isn't going to be useful anyways.
I don't get who is buying 64gb for what.

It's not a contradiction. Computing power can be used for tasks that aren't storage related and the effectiveness of those cycles is increased because of the hardware and software synergy which the Android devices can't offer.

Also it doesn't matter who is buying 64gb. Someone either is or is not.

Warning: Amazon sends their mixed inventory, so you may end up with a used item, or a return with the wrong ipad in the box. Their QC has gone to shit with electronics.

Also, the new ipads should be announced in the next month or so, whenever wwdc is

I just ordered the M1 Air 256G in open box condition for $495. Check the different color options to see what other discounts you can find. Mine is pink but it's going in a ZAGG keyboard case so who cares.

It's based on availability near you. Your local store may have an open box item for cheap

My thoughts as well...typing on my pink S23U.

Personally, I don't use that much space so considering the 64 GB Air

I used to unquestionably trust BB and their "Open Box - Excellent" devices until my recent MacBook Pro 14 purchase. It was shipped to me. I opened it and turned it on and up came the previous owners login. BB didn't even TOUCH the MacBook before reselling it. With someone else's account and locked to their Apple ID, it's useless to me. Wound up having them PM Amazon and got a new one for the same price. But still, it was a hassle.

In any case, BB trade in of my iPad Air 4th Gen is $240. $405 for an Open Box Excellent Starlight makes it about $200 after tax. Seems worth it, right?

$499 is more of an iPad Pro 11 price point. Not too long ago the iPad Air 4th gen was $349

It's called smart shopping Wink be smart folks
Where can one get an iPad Pro 11 M1 for $499?

Went to pick up the open box excellent condition iPad Air that I ordered for $385. The iPad itself was like new but it was missing the charger and the cable. They did not want to give me another original charger and cable, so I just returned it. Check the condition of the item in store before you leave.
Really? That's interesting. I've always had BBY either refund me the difference or give me a new charger. The only time they won't is if they don't sell the part separately in the store. If they tell you no, I would speak to a manager. I got $300 refunded on an Open-Box Excellent TV that had no accessories.

I've had my iPad Air 5th for about six months. I paid $400 and don't regret it.
I have a laptop for work and use my iPad for bills, notes , media consumption email, etc.
the main reason I made the purchase was the display support.
As noted the lack of 120 hertz is the only knock but it's not necessary for me
I've got over half my 64gb left. I expect more updates this year with the iOS thanks to the M1 chip. I had a iPad Air 2 last me over 7 years and still got $80 for it
