Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Perfect iPad for travel. Does everything the big one does just smaller. I use it mainly for streaming and work. Charges very fast and last almost all day. The camera quality is good. I also have the pen and it works very well for drawing, writing, etc. Definitely recommend if you don't mind a smaller screen.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Best small tablet with a huge attitude. I use it for everything. Whether it is searching the web or surfing the net, I can find whatever I am looking for. It has all but replaced my laptop. The bad part is I hate to set it down and now I want to be greedy and get the iPad Pro. Yes the big one.
