M1 iPad Air 5 One Month Later! Essentially a Perfect Tablet?! 

I want a mini for portability but this is so much more bang for the buck for $100 more

Thank you so much for the amount of time and power you put to make this kind of videos, even if I am not looking for something which the video talks about I always watch it all because every second of it is so entertaining and I just wanted to let u know that I personally really appreciate all u do and keep going sir, u have a huge future ahead ❤️

Gary, I just bought a Blue 256GB one on Sunday. I had an old mini. What a difference!! I love it. I agree, best looking iPad! Love your videos!

I bought the IA5 256GB cellular version as a way of future proofing my iPad. I won’t need to upgrade it for years to come. Sure I could’ve went with the Pro, but for the features of the IA5 is just what I needed. The Pro has features that I may want, but they’re more like bonus features when the Air 5 can get it done.

I bought a 256 GB version in a very beautiful blue color without a sim card, this is my first iPad, and I will buy a second one very soon. This iPad is able to work well for at least 5 years, I will use it as much as 10 years. And in 10 years, my iPad will still work properly. Remember the first Mini iPads, and understand that this is a miracle, the iPad Air M1 will work for a very long time Thank you  for this miracle!

Thanks for sharing. There are many features to like about the M1 Air 5. Blessings on your day!

After dealing with the Face ID issues with my iPhone Pro, I am glad for the Touch ID. Plus you have to touch the screen to unlock the thing anyway, so you’re already touching the device

I have a purple 256 Gb, and I haven’t had any build quality issues either. I’m loving the iPad and it’s my first one ever!!

I love your videos! Thanks for all of the content! I’ve been following for a couple months now.

Thank you for answering my question...I have the iPad Air 4 and love it, it's still working great for me and I only got it a little over a year ago. Was wondering if I should get the 5 but I don't really use the camera on it very often so looks like I'm good. I also have the iPad mini 6 and LOVE it and actually use the camera on that one more than any other device. Thanks for helping me save my money becuase if they release those pretty colored MacBook Airs later this year I'm all in on a purple one!

Watching this on my IPad Air 5 (256 GB version) and I’m an artist. This tablet in my opinion is a pretty decent digital sketchbook, which is what I bought it for. If you’re an artist like me I recommend getting a case with a hand strap on the back as holding it with one had for extended periods of time gets exhausting. I got the large storage because I knew I would be downloading videos, music and photos for my art. I haven’t consumed more than the standard 64 GB tablet, but I’m getting close with procreate consuming about 2 GB by itself. I don’t think I’ll ever get past 100 GB. The tablet is capable of producing art identical to that on my PC, with decent layers too. If any artist looking at getting this tablet wants to know how many layers specifically for each canvas I’ll reply to them in the comments. I’ve already produced some decent pieces and this tablet has more than enough power for the most professional artists out there and has become the main driver in my profession. I use it more than my phone and laptop, but I don’t use social media as often a the normal person so it varies. The battery life is meh, at 100% it only lasts an hour with the screen at full brightness. At 75% brightness it lasts about 4 hours. At 50% it lasts for more than 6 hours. At 25% this thing has lasted me about a day and a half on a full charge. My biggest fear is sitting on this thing because if feels so light out of the box. It’s thinner than a pencil so be careful. Definitely get a case and screen protector because you will more than likely drop it or scratch it over time. 10/10 would recommend.

Another great video! I've been deciding on a new Ipad for myself and this definitely helps. Btw...what keyboard are you using. Love the look!

I was hoping that as Apple are using the same M1 processor in a lot of their products, it would mean the price could be reduced on the iPad Air 5 - I guess I can dream!

I'm still using an iPad 2 with 16 GB storage. I mainly use it at the gym to watch videos on the treadmill. It's too heavy for reading books. I use an iPad mini 5 for reading books. I use Apple Videos or VLC to watch videos and just move stuff on and off as I need it. At home, I can just use the home cloud. I would like a newer iPad but I can't say that I need one. Other uses are as a clock or workout timer. I do think about upgrading to an iPad mini 6 but I can't say that I really need one. The mini 5 is still a great tablet.

I received my beautiful new blue iPad Air 5, 64 last week after waiting over 3 weeks and was so excited. I currently have an iPad Air 3 and I loved the new design and color. I have all my photos and documents stored in iCloud and have the iPad set to optimize storage to the cloud. However, with using it the first day, I kept getting messages that the iPad storage was full and I needed to delete things. I was also surprised that I didn’t notice a speed difference for normal use from my Air 3. Needless to say I returned the Air 5 today and will continue to use my Air 3.

I got the m2 11 inch iPad Pro. There were a 350 pound difference between the iPad Air 5 256gb and or the 11 inch m2 iPad Pro with 512gb. And let’s just say, I’m stunned I can connect my external hard drive right there the iPad rather then through the computer. I have an eight year old MacBook Pro, so it’s always good to have an (almost) laptop backup!

Wal Mart has the 256GB model for $689 right now! I'm going to be picking that one up.

I was looking at the M1 iPad Air 5 since it’s release but I ended up buying the 12.9 M1 Pro on sale at Best Buy for 999$ a few days ago

I'm about to buy a space Grey one. Really wishing the best for the build quality 🤞

Look.... I quit apple ecosystem when iPhone X launched... From that moment I had Samsung tab s4 and then s7... Yesterday I pulled the trigger and buy the new Air for a couple of reasons: 1) better OS 2) continuous support 3) better processor 4) I liked the blue color 5) Better apps on store. Reg the disadvantages you say.. The 64gb is indeed low, but if we think how many ssds we have in our office, the cloud services we use (not only icloud) I believe that the 64 for a consumer and a light media editor guy (writing blogs, maintain a podcast) is OK. Do I like more.... Sure. But I'm OK. I'm waiting to arrive. I have great expectations and I believe I'm going to enjoy... See ya on the next vid.

Hey, so I know I'm a bit late to this vid but I do have a question, is 64 gb enough if I have a MacBook and ICloud?(as a student) Thanks

Im still using the ipad pro 10.5 the new ones are lovely but ive no reason to upgrade until this one stops working.

Would you suggest the iPad Air 5 or a refurbed iPad Pro 2018 model?

“But I’m also a bold person” loved it! Lmao

I love your videos😍

The rear camera shooting 4K 60fps quality at lower light seems to have a lot of noise and the 4K aren't very sharp. Or is it just me?

Where do you get those cool wallpapers from? I would like to know.

Watching with my iPad air5, great deal.

This is the first iPad that I felt comfortable buying because of the M1 chip and USB-C port. I love this iPad.

can you make an updated video on this regarding stage manager

bro, did i hear you right? if you're in the apple eco system, you'll recommend the tab s8? 😁 or i understood wrong?

Which is better for a student, ipad or laptop?

You need a video on that keyboard / keycaps ;)

Will you do more iPhone 13 mini coverage?

Can you do a comparison between iPad Air 5 and iPad Mini 6?

Still loving my iPad Air 4. Might upgrade next year but for now I’m good. I wrote my books Cy-Ju Heroes 1&2 on it 🤷🏽‍♂️ can’t beat that for me

Hey I think they fixed your display issue with iPad os 16, yeah?

3:00 my mate literally willing to forget about the existence of the base iPad generations

where is the slamming stuff on the table trademark? 😂

How do you find the battery life?

The only weird thing is that since the camera is on top and on the left for landscape, it seems like you’re looking elsewhere during conference calls 😅

Hi dear I have anew iPad Air 5 . I am an old man with vision deficiency. I tried all functions to make permanent full screen display for my Facebook , can you help.

i wish they added a 128gb version..

I purchased the iPad Pro 128 gb with the M1 chip from Amazon for $699. I’m selling my old iPad Air 4 on eBay.

Does anyone know where he got the wallpaper?

Hi. I've just ordered iPad Air after using 6th generation iPad into the ground. So watching copious reviews and accessory videos. But I'm curious about the blue keyboard. Can you share the details please?

FULL EXTERNAL DISPLAY!!! LOL I know you been talking about apple should do this for the longest.

I want that mechanical keyboard! What brand is it so I can buy one just like it?

I bought mine in the blue color after it came out and so far it really good I’m not and the apple ecosystem and it’s still good

How is video editing in air ?

I’ve been joying my M1 iPad Air for a month now and I still believe is the best purchase I’ve ever made in the tech world. The Center stage camera is just amazing and the performance puts my iPhone to shame. Next up: M2 MacBook Air

I’d still rather my 2020 pro tho. It has faceid & 120hz. Also the bezels are noticeably thinner due to the extra 0.1” screen but same physical size. I bought it from certified refurbished right before the launch of iPad Air 5, for cheaper than the iPad Air 5 and it has 128gb

Face ID is so underrated. Once you have been so used to Face ID for iPad Pro, it would really feel weird not having it.

6:58 The ROG ZFLOW 13 a gaming tablet that has RTX 3050

I had a 256gig one on order and decided to cancel it and go for the 12.9 inch Pro didnt want regrets later on as paying the extra storge upgrade price doesnt make it very attractive.

So close in price to the pro that its crazy to go for the air.

I so agree with your comment regarding the storage. I felt cheated.

I feel something in the back of the iPad Air 5th blue

Does the built quality issue at the back of Air 5 is solved ? Because I read a lot of comments on Reddit and they said their device have this problem.

iPadOS 16 stage manager comes in clutch for this tablet.

Will air 5 charge an iphone like the pros

Apple better add *The Everyday Dad* Goku keyboard to their lineup of accessories 😤 😤 😤

Hey my friends, I’m an IT student so, I do some codes like machine learning tasks on my laptop. I have a little weird question, which one should I choose? 1. Macbook air m2 16gb 512gb 2. Macbook air m1 base model + iPad air5 m1 base model 3. (A little bit pricier combo): MacBook air m2 base model + iPad air5 m1 base model

I bought Air 5 and this is my first apple device and after this review i am feeling bad over not choosing S8

Person buying iPad to the Apple ecosystem: "Hum bhi bana lenge"! 🤣

i just want full office apps on ipad

On browsing netflix or browse lifestyle site

I’m considering getting an iPad for content consumption and note taking; will 256gb be enough storage?

Hi dad, will it be okay if i just buy the baseline 64gb but along with USB flash drive? Or if still not enough, i can just go for additional iCloud drive right? Im buying this for my business uses & light editing

@theeverydaydad please be the first RU-vidr to review the XPS 17 9720 🙏🙏

64 gbs is a tough sell

Yeah nah mate, I'm buying the tab s8 in a couple of hours. I don't want to be limited by apples ecosystem, I'll enjoy plugging my 1tb storage s8 into any computer and transfer movies,music and so on freely without apples software limitations.

I wanna know if 64gb is enough for a student who will only used It for goodnotes and some files that can be storage in iCloud, I mean, this won't be my primary device cause I have my phone and my 256gb Mac, but I willl be using this iPad for like 5 years... SOS

A bit scared to purchase one of these since people have been complaining a lot about crecking sounds tho… 😔 I think I will buy the 9th gen as my first ipad

Goku keyboard was incredible.

really dislike the apple pencil and writing experience tho on my surface pro 8 (before I returned it for a MacBook m1 air just 6 hours ago!) even at 60hz it's more responsive than iPad Pro 120hz with goodnote. the apple pencil's nib is too thick which makes writing small harder and makes you write big which is a pain because you constantly are moving your hands etc . on the surface pro it felt more natural and less fatiguing. I like the haptic feedback in the surface's slim pen 2 too. it helps a bit. the iPad Air specially is so delayed and "laggy" and just doesn't feel great

Ugh I want one

Would be a perfect tablet if it had a better refresh rate. For a midrange tablet, the Air should at least be 90hz by now. The first 90hz models started coming out in 2017. With Apples extremely slow pace at introducing old tech as something new to their products they are running behind schedule because it usually takes them about 5 years. 60hz should only be in low entry base level products by now. Funny how Apple was the very last company to have 120hz screens compared to every phone/tablet manufacturer known. Guess they don’t have enough operating capital to be innovative and have the latest and greatest technology anymore. 🤷‍♂️

iPad air 5 vs Samsung Tab S8 Plus ...which one should you get???

64gb good for long term? Cant afford anything more than that

I bought it for the m1chip, edited.

I’m no Apple fan boy, but there is no comparison between other tablets and the iPad. I can’t quantify peoples individual preferences, but objectively there is no better performing tablet out. Period

Thick screen bezels, chassis made of foil, fake speaker grills (4 grills just for design, in fact only 2 speakers on the inside), 6.1mm fake thickness (7mm in reality due to camera protrusion), no headphone jack (for connecting a decent mic its a must), touch id in the power button which is (subjectively, had a 4th gen air) easier to smudge than round touch id button. Only 7600mah battery. Yeah its got M1, but you dont need that kind of power on a sub 12inch 60hz screen. Better get a 2018 12.9 inch Pro (still for stationary use only, or to use with a massive bulky case).

excuse me what is your keyboard and its name thank you.

So $200 more gets u the pro 11” w 128G. Think im going pro 11”

battery life, speakers, and screen brightness are trash. but it’s quite the bargain for 500

Man, if you don’t care about 120 Hz refresh rate, or micro LED, the 11 and 12.9 inch iPad Pro is kind of useless

by reading the title I didn't have to watch the video.

Wait until you see this year iPhones with the M1 as well

256gb is the bare minimum tbh 😅

How are you recording Centerstage?

Ipad or Mac book air? 🫠

ayooo

Speakers are so underwhelming…

Screen distortion issues. Don’t buy it . Creaking back . I just returned from Apple store . I checked 7 units there . All do the same . I am selling my unit .

Super underpowered by iPadOS like the PRO models, essentialy 700/800 eur tablet for watching netflix , surfing to theverge and playing some stupid “onetouch” telephonine games ahah 🤣😂😳👎🏻

You are delusional that the padOS is anywhere as good has macOS, Windows, or Linux when it comes to creative or gaming. I have the M1 iPad Pro and it is the worst OS I have ever used for such a powerful system, I can’t do real software development on this device and if I had gone with Android I could run Linux inside with full development environment. I bought this before padOS 15 was released and was expecting that Apple would give true Pro features to the device, but it was a lie.

Only APPLE product I can afford 😷
