A:AnswerYes, the battery life is excellent and easily lasts all day. It is very light, I have a MacBook Pro which stays at home when I travel and has virtually been replaced by this iPad
A:AnswerWifi is different from cellular. Wifi means this could connect to your router at home. It wouldn't cost anything
2G or 4G or something like it would mean the iPad would be like a cell phone with its own connection to the internet. That would cost something every month
A:AnswerI almost bought the keyboard at the same time I bought the iPad but decided to wait to see if I really needed it. I've had it several weeks and have been typing pretty comfortable just on the iPad. I may still get the keyboard later on but I'm also pretty happy without it
A:AnswerNo, you do not get discounts on electronic items at Best Buy for being a senior. There are discounts that I have seen if you are a student though, but it is mostly on software, and it has been during certain times of the year.
A:AnswerYou can use any printer that is Apple compatible. We purchased a HP Lalserjet that allowed for wireless printing across our home network. All of our IPads can see the printer and send jobs to it. I also have a Brother Multi Function printer that comes with an I Print app that allows printing from the IPad. I prefer the HP because you don’t even need an app to print something.
A:AnswerThe 12.9 will not fit any of the old tablet covers unless they were also 12.9. I would suggest getting an Otterbox to cover your tablet if anyone other than you lay hands on your tablet.
A:AnswerYou're better off selling the iPad mini on eBay or another site like that, then using that money to buy your new iPad. Trade-in values are VERY low compared to what you'll get on the open market.
A:AnswerYes. One thing to be careful of though, if you get a case with a keyboard on it, you will need a screen protector for your iPad. When the case is closed, the keys will touch your screen and very likely will scratch it.
A:AnswerYes you can use all of those apps. My iPad Pro was the perfect replacement for my laptop. If you need to save something to a flash drive that might be a problem. Not sure but they may have an adapter to clear up that issue.
A:AnswerI do have Word on mine, but I can’t recall if I downloaded it or if it came with it. I know you can definitely download it from the App Store for free.
A:AnswerNo. WIFI will work anywhere you can get access to it with a password. If you have a cell phone with hotspot capability you can connect to that as well.
