It's a crime to make tablets with 64G storage in 2024
I'm pretty sure these are being sold at this price to clear stock for a 6th gen coming soon.
Uhh have you ever been on an airplane? WiFi is extremely limited so you need to watch your streaming service shows/movies that are downloaded to your device for offline viewing. With 64 GB and the Operating System taking up more and more of that space with updates, you soon become VERY limited with the amount of video you can store on the device itself.

64 gb?! I Wonder how would be the browsing with few tabs open, youtube/netflix running....... Sloooooooow!

I just picked up the 64gb 10th gen regular iPad. It is fast and runs just fine. This one should perform even better.

This is a great price for a blazing fast device. Keep in mind this is the AIR. Has better screen, more RAM, and much faster than the standard iPad. Add a thin keyboard cover and this becomes the most portable device from which you can comfortably do most office work including Zoom calls, creating Word docs, editing spreadsheets, doing Photoshop. OR gaming or DJing or pretty much anything.

At home you can connect to USB hub and other devices including mouse, full keyboard, and external 4k monitor.

I also have a 13" MacBook Air and this is so much lighter and more portable, even with a keyboard.

Keep in mind that Apple supports iPads officially for 5+ years but even after it's no longer supported, you can hand this down to a kid for gaming and media consumption.

There WILL be a new iPad Air released next month.

Can't recommend this device enough at this price.

You forget to mention the ridiculous battery life. I can use it all day without plugging it in. My wife has this and I have the M1 iPad Pro and they are pretty much the same for our purposes. They are one of the most amazing devices I've ever used when paired with Magic Keyboard. At work I use a Magic Mouse and trackpad as well.

I totally agree about 64 GB being small, but a solution (not ideal) is USB storage expansion. It's not the best but should offer some flexibility.

I'd wait a bit. According to MacRumors, Apple is about to release the new Air series soon (with the last release being 716 days ago, compared to their average release cycle of 610 days). There's a good chance you could find an even better price after launch. For those considering this versus the cheapest iPad: This model has a laminated screen that reduces reflections. If you travel frequently, the Air is definitely the better option as reflections can be annoying. I have the cheapest iPad and I can only use it at home, cause reflections drive me nuts. By the way, if you think you gonna save some money by getting the cheapest iPad and repairing it by yourself in case the non-laminated glass breaks, trust me. I did replace glass once, never again. There is a reason Apple is not fixing most of the iPads in the US. They just give you a refurb if you have an Apple Care.

Quote from jcricket006 :
It really depends on what you do with it. Keep in mind that the iPad is not ONLY a media consumption device. Some people use it for photo/video/audio editing, design work, etc which demand a lot of space. Some travel often and need the space to store games, music, videos, etc. If you have an iPhone and like to sync your camera roll to your iPad, then that in itself could be a problem if you record a lot of videos.

Getting more storage space gives you the flexibility to use the iPad as more than just a browsing and streaming device. Storing the data in an external drive is not always an option or convenient depending on the situation or the apps you are using. If none of these apply to you or interest you, then by all means a 64GB would be enough.
Buy the 256GB variant. Those who don't watch offline videos would be happy with their 64GB iPads.

We all have different use cases. I personally find I don't use as much storage as I do on my phones since I am less reliant on dedicated apps. So for a 128GB iPhone user, a 64GB iPad might be more than enough and cheaper. And if not you can always get the 256GB version. It was an overkill for me but I can think of plenty of applications where that would come in handy. We have options. It's a good thing.

Quote from Bigbanks :
With iPads adding and removing data has always been a pain. They are consumption devices... Now on my tab s9, different story. I use the storage and dex mode is more useful. iPads are just crippled and never could use them more than consumption. which is fine, they are good at what people want them for... I just want more and since the first one and the many I have had, nothing has ever been pro about them.

but still waiting on a real stupid deal for the mini so I can use it for foreflight. the only app that I need on the iPad..

False. I have a tab s7+ and find the productivity apps sucky on android vs my iPad. no pro version of photoshop or davinci resolve for video and photo editing but have those on ipadOS

I just use the s7+ for watching movies now with that nice OLED screen

False? s7+.. I had and s8+ and currently s9+... What are you talking about false? I go to my surfacebook or mac mini for davinci or photoshop... What kind of work do you do? I have working the IT field for almost 20 years. IPADS have NEVER been a good tool for a person who develops or administers. You are talking about some creativity where the ipad has software actually designed for it and where android was an after thought.

The CORE OS and PRODUCTIVITY of an ipad is no where close to what android can do. These are all facts. You bring up old hardware and specifics...

But guess what... I can now use luma fusion on my s9... And who really using photoshop on the ipad, like for real? The ipad cannot dock well and is nothing more than a companion device. My productivity is Slower on a mac or ipad and those are just the FACTs for ME. Does not mean it does not work, but I use the right tools for the job and the ipad for me currenly has only one place... that is in the cockpit of an airplane... and I am trying my best to find a decent android tablel that keep that from being the case.
