iPad as a laptop replacement

Does anyone here have the iPad Air M3 and is able to testify about its longevity? Will it be useable (and still feel fast) for the next 3 years or is it already showing its age?

Many people still swear by their M1 iPads and Macs. The M3 iPad Air came out last year and will receive software updates and support until 2032/2033. It’ll be a good device for years

Thank you for your answer. I heard the battery is very bad when using the Apple Pencil? My main purpose would be using the iPad as a digital notepad…

I don’t own an M3 iPad Air (I have an M4 iPad Pro), but I’ve never heard any reports of really bad battery runtime on the M3 iPad Air. I used an 11” M1 iPad Pro for many years, and never had any issues with battery life. 👍🏻
