Picked my Air up this afternoon (UK).

First impressions - very light, thin, and the quality is certainly on a par with my iPad 3 but without the hefty weight.

Screen is perfect, no faults, marks, scratches, the Wifi is FAST and overall it simply feels like a totally new design iPad - like a larger Mini - but with the benefit of a bigger screen.

Every time I pick it up the things that strike me are the lightness, and how thin it is.

This is my first experience of iOS 7 (in fact my 3 was still on iOS 5 due to the Maps fiasco!) so I'm still getting used to that - but so far I like it, no complaints.

I certainly won't be returning it, it's a very decent upgrade from my iPad 3 in every way.

I managed to get over £50 off it too, by ordering via Quidco, with the Tescos voucher code etc.

Happy days!
 
Nice quick review, just like you said. Glad you're liking it so far. Can't wait to get mine on Monday.

Enjoy your new Air! :D
