I feel like the Air is a good compromise between features and price.
It turns out that 11 inches of crystal clear screen is precisely what I need in most situations.
In the end, I was glad I decided to go with the Air.

The 12.9-inch iPad Pro I had my eye on would have been double the cost.
These days when Im working.
I often reach for my iPad instead of my MacBook.

Its not just that the iPad is ridiculously portable at just over a pound.
The iPads iOS offers a less-distracting environment than the macOS.
By contrast, the iPad is an oasis of calm.
Ive been using iPads for over a decade, but, until recently, they primarily were media-consumption devices.
They were great for watching Netflix and browsing the web, but thats about it.
The iPad Air 2020 changed everything for me whenI invested in Apples Magic Keyboard for iPad.
Another game-changer is the way the Magic Keyboard incorporates a very effective trackpad, which is key to writing.
After six months with the Air, its no exaggeration to say that its changed my life.
