it began not charging fully … like it would only charge up to 80%, then 70% then 60% and it took longer to charge… eventually it got to the point where it stopped taking any charge at all… it’s just a brick now… what should i do?
Hi Keith This sounds like a pretty cut and dry battery issue. Batteries go bad over time and Airs are starting to age. Changing the battery isn’t super complicated, just takes time and patience. iFixit has a great guide: iPad Air Wi-Fi Battery Replacement Replacing the battery would be my first option. It could be a couple of other things like a bad Lightning port (not very likely) or a power IC (possible but not probable). Either way, replacing the battery is the easiest of those options and will let you know pretty much instantly if it was at fault. Good luck and keep us updated
