Battery Life

It was time for an upgrade

The battery had started to noticeably drain faster but that was the only problem I was having with it. After seeing how well Apple makes their products, I decided to stick with them when making my purchase. So far, the iPad 9 is performing well for me. I enjoy the screen resolution/response and it's bigger than my previous tablet

Battery life is not good. Average battery for the iPad Air 4 is 10 hours. Definitely doesn't last that long.

Size

Nice size IPad

I wasn’t sure that I wanted a bigger IPad having used a mini for many years but am very happy with this 10.2 inch I-Pad- the screen is so much bigger and much better for reading articles etc., the quality of the pictures and the quality of the sound when I listen to music; the battery life is also very good. Very leased with my purchase

Actually a downgrade from the previous Air

Cons: They moved the fingerprint reader to the top corner, presumably to increase the size of the display. Locating the reader on the corner impacts the software UI driving endless changes that have negative value, and add up to a sizeable reduction in quality of user experience (IMO). Apple needs to accept that they should create or buy in-screen fingerprint technology. A tragic design decision
