There are better choices

I installed this (actually Geek Squad installed it) to get more punch from a Kenwood HU and some Pioneer speakers (60 watt RMS). I could tell they gave the music more life at higher volumes, but not much at low and mid volumes, where I listen most of the time. I asked my installer if they gain could be adjusted. He said no and that if I was unhappy I could try the Alpine Power Pack 445U (manager gave me a price match since I was unhappy with the original purchase). The Alpine has adjustable gain and wow what a difference. It took a week to get broke in but now the music even at low volumes really comes alive.

iPad® Air is 20 percent thinner1 and weighs just one pound, so it feels unbelievably light in your hand. It comes with a 9.7-inch Retina display, the A7 chip with M7 motion coprocessor, ultrafast wireless, powerful apps, and up to 10 hours of battery life.2 And over 475,000 apps in the App Store are just a tap away.3

Very pleased

I enjoy this thing even more than I was expecting. It's great for browsing the web and using apps like Amazon, eBay, Youtube, FB, Twitter, etc. And don't believe people when they tell you the iPad is not good for content creation (meaning they think Windows tablets are the only things you can create docs and spreadsheets with). I added a Logitech keyboard folio to mine for about $60 and I can go to town typing away creating Pages and Word docs all day long.

Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Folio Case for iPad Air: Maintain the slim profile you love about the iPad Air while adding damage protection and versatile functionality. Type on the keyboard and view the screen like you're using a laptop, then fold up the case and you're ready to take your iPad on the go with a securely shut magnetic closure.

This is a great complement to the iPad Air. It provides some protection, though that is not the main reason for using this product. If protection is your only concern, look at an Otterbox or Survivor case. The main benefit of this is being able to use a physical keyboard. It connects very nicely, the auto on/off always works, and the bluetooth always pairs up quickly. The battery life is very good. But the main thing is that the keyboard has a nice tactile feel to it and after a little adjustment time (it's not quite full size) I'm quite accurate with it. My only issue is that the number row isn't where my fingers expect it (seems just a tad more to the right than where my mind/fingers expect), so that about half the time when intending to hit the number "1" key I instead hit the Esc/Home key which is just to the left of it. It doesn't really hurt anything since the programs I use (Pages, Word) the most continually auto-save. For some reason my brain just refuses to adjust to that. Other than that minor quirk I love it. However, I recommend you go to BB and check out the displays of the keyboard cases to determine what size, style, brand seems to have the best feel for you. I was thinking of getting a soft touch model but after trying it out in the store I realized I needed something with real tactile feedback.

Very good but was hoping for a little more

My old Braun Flex series gave out, or really the battery pack did. I guess I could have cracked the case and tried to replace the battery pack but it's at least 10 years old so I figured I'd try a new one. I've tried the rotary styles in the past and they never shaved my neck whiskers as well as the foil type, though they actually shave my cheek whiskers a touch closer. Anyway, overall the foils work better for me and I was pleased with my last Braun so I saw no reason to change. I bought this one based on pretty good reviews plus I caught it on sale for about $120. I'm pleased with it. It shaves at least as good as my old one. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that I can't really tell that it shaves any better than my last one. I was really hoping 10 years or so of advancements would have yielded noticeably better results. Still, I do recommend it and would buy it again.
