That’s the exact model I have, and it’s great. But it’s also almost a year and a half old. I’d be wary of buying one right now.

WOW! mega sale going on but i'll wait till next month for the new iPads

The iPad Air should receive a price drop or a bump in base storage once the 10.8" iPad arrives.

But until the Air gets updated next year, it still offers a better Pencil experience along with having a much better front camera.

Another clue new iPads are coming guys.

They have to clear those shelves and inventories for the new ones.

Can I please ask why?

Does it have trouble running the new OS? In terms of battery drain? Why do you recommend waiting?

I’m still on the air 2 and need a upgrade fairly soon. I hope the air 4 has a headphone jack.
