A:AnswerYes, the iPad is compatible with Verizon. You can use it with a Verizon cellular plan if you purchase the cellular model. If you have the Wi-Fi–only model, it will connect to the internet via Wi-Fi but will not support cellular service.
A:AnswerYes, but I don't recommend it. Apple Pencil is over-priced unless you are a creator and you draw a lot with your iPad. For everyday usage, a third-party stylus is plenty enough for writing on iPad. Save your hard-earned money.
