Best budget tablet/laptop?

Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2021

Style: WiFiSize: 256GBColor: Sky BlueVerified Purchase

To start things off, this is in my opinion a really great tablet. I’m currently using the tablet to write this review with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse that I bought for it and all three together make a really great combination. The way I’m going to handle this review is by talking the screen, battery, processing power, connectivity. I might add on a few things in a later update.

Screen
Coming from a Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 was kinda impressed but when I first turned on the tablet I immediately noticed weird frame rate issues that were very noticeable, I thought for a second that I might have received a broken tablet but I decided to update the tablet to see if it would go away and it did. Comparing it to my S4 It’s definitely an upgrade but it sure does strain my eyes way more than my old tablet but it looks better in my opinion. I really love going through social media watching YouTube videos and texting, I’m texting way more than I did in the past 5 years and the onscreen keyboard is so great to use. One thing I do want to complain about is that the blue light that this tablet outputs must be very high because the day I started using this tablet I found it way harder to fall asleep. Be sure to turn on Night Shift to get some good hours of Zzzz. Besides that the screen is great and in my experience it’s the perfect size for using it as a tablet, if you’re going to use it more for a laptop get the big IPad Pro.

Battery
This is going to be short. The battery is very great, it has a 7606mAh battery and it goes for days without a charge. I don’t play any games on it but I do use it as a laptop for college and it still does very great. The 60Hz screen must really help battery life because this tablet with very heavy usage can go for about 3 days until it dies. If you are worried about battery life don’t be because it’s great.

Processing power
To help you understand this has the same A14 Bionic as the iPhone 12, it’s crazy fast. This will handle any game, college work, photo editing anything you can think of. It does only have 4GB of ram but it doesn’t seem to slow it down in any way. With the amount of power this thing has it will still be fast 3 years from now. To make this short I’m more worried about the world ending than this tablet being slow in the next few years.

Connectivity
Connecting to my iPhone XS was super easy and both work together so seamlessly like I can’t even explain it. I haven’t had any issues connecting to my speakers, keyboard, WiFi router, texting (just so you know your iPhone has to be on to be texting from your tablet), everything works great. I used to have issues with my S4 connecting to my speakers and issues connecting to my WiFi router with my laptops and it makes me very happy to see that so far I haven’t had any issues with this tablet.

Overall?
This a buy for me. If you need a full laptop replacement to do crazy 4K video editing and got cash to throw around, get the Apple iPad Pro (12.9-inch, 4th generation) but if you want to get more bang for your buck and are mainly going to be using this as a tablet and doing basic college work mainly using Google Docs, heavy gaming or heavy media consumption then this tablet is more than enough. I got $50 off during Black Friday and I consider that a crazy good deal. I don’t regret buying this tablet. In my opinion this is far greater tablet/laptop than the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ especially if you have an iPhone because you will not be able to send text messages from any Samsung tablet if you currently use an iPhone. So far, I’m very happy with my purchase and I’m sure you will be too!!!

This Made me Love Apple

Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2022

Style: WiFiSize: 256GBColor: Sky BlueVerified Purchase

My entire life I had been a Windows and Linux user. I never gave Apple much of a chance due to the prices of everything. As I began to pull more and more away from Windows and Google (I despise them both), I gave Apple a shot with this iPad Air 4 not long after it came out… it was one of the best purchases of my life. I use this tablet on a fairly regular basis, with multiple use cases. It’s absolutely wonderful. Where to start… I have used many tablets over the years. I got to experience the original iPad and it was a nice device, but with Android devices being cheaper I used those. The quality was definitely paltry in comparison, and some outright dubious to the point that I find it criminal that some of them were sold in places like Wal-Mart. Out of all the Android tablets I had used, only the Samsung ones were viable, but they always felt lacking to me. In an effort to shift away from the leach that is Google, when it came time to replace my old tablet I decided to give an iPad a shot. I had by this time now been working on Macs for about three years on and off (I do Tech Support and have had to diagnose and fix many Macs in that time, as well as tablets and phones).

Upon receiving my tablet, I set it up with the Apple Pencil, a tempered glass screen protector and a cheap off brand keyboard case + trackpad as the Magic Keyboard is well beyond my affordability. Immediately it had become a stable device in my life. Even though I use a laptop predominately, I - as liken to this instance - am using my laptop for larger media consumption and for other tasks, while this iPad allows me to do tasks on the side without ruining the large screen experience. Granted it has also been useful for far more than just that, as its far more portable than by bulky laptop and can do quite a lot that my computer can. It doesn’t fully replace my laptop, that would require a MacBook or a Mac Mini (both of which are unfortunately far outside my price range).

Since getting this tablet, I have gotten back into drawing, sketching, writing, and more; things I had not done in many years. The portability is a huge plus, but its power is remarkable for such a small device. With the A14 Bionic chip, there is not one thing I threw at this tablet that it could bot handle with ease. I imagine the M1 iPad Air 5 is far more efficient, but even still, this tablet has lasted me going on two years with many more to come. I do not see any slowdown as the tablet has been as smooth and crisp as it was since getting it out the box. Watching videos on this device is stunning with its crisp display, and the audio is full and has plenty in terms of volume. The 256gb storage capacity is more than plenty for my needs, though if needed the usb-c port allows for many expansion and peripheral opportunities. It’s lightweight, sleek, powerful and quite the looker.

I have never used a tablet as nice as this one, and it feels premium when you hold it in your hands, something even Samsung tablets cannot properly replicate. This device has convinced me that we are not far off from being able to use them as a full laptop/desktop replacement for most users. Actually, as the average person uses computers for things like news, media consumption, email and the like, most people could probably get away with an iPad and a keyboard case. I still require a full computer, however. Though I use my iPad Air 4 almost daily, and will continue to do so until it comes time to upgrade in probably another two years. In fact, its impressed me so much, if I had the financial ability, I would throw out my current cell phone and laptop and get an iPhone and a MacBook or an iMac Mini. One can dream…

Inaccurate advert

Reviewed in Australia on January 14, 2021

Style: WiFiSize: 64GBColor: SilverVerified Purchase

The iPad itself is good. The issue I have is with the charger. I purchased the item in Australia and I was sent a USA charger which meant I was unable to charge the iPad. I contacted the seller who advised that in the small print under the model number, a bunch of letters and numbers means it’s from the US! Seriously, as if a reasonable person would know that. From reading the reviews after the fact, I can see this is a repeat reported issue. They should be more up front with this rather than trying to hide it. When I emailed them I was offered an adapter and the picture attached is what I received!
So, the small amount of money I received on this iPad was spent on purchasing a genuine Apple charger for Australia! My advice, would be to enquire first and ensure you are receiving a product that you can actually use immediately in Australia.

Excelente produto, bem intuitivo. Um pouco chatas as configurações iniciais, mas durante uso é tranquilo demais. Achei que a bateria tivesse mais autonomia, mas tenho percebido que ela descarrega um pouco mais rápido do que eu imaginava. Em compensação carrega super rápido.

Sonho de Consumo

Reviewed in Brazil on April 6, 2022

Style: WiFiSize: 64GBColor: Sky BlueVerified Purchase

Assim que comecei a faculdade me indicaram comprar um iPad.
Comprei esse Air 4a geração 64GB e ele está me atendendo perfeitamente.
Estou usando há 2 semanas e não tenho do que reclamar.
Para quem tem iPhone, ele sincroniza tudinho e fica muito mais prático.
Como uso ele apenas para a faculdade, não posso falar muito a respeito de espaço, porque baixei apenas 2 aplicativos: Good Notes e CapCut.
Inclusive, para quem vai comprar o iPad para estudo, sugiro que compre junto com a Apple Pencil (excelente) e o app GoodNotes. Ele é excelente e você consegue organizar todas as suas anotações de maneira organizada.
