Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the product's exceptional overall performance, speed, and stellar battery life, along with its great screen quality and lightweight portability. They also appreciate its perfect size, sleek design, and subtle color. However, some customers note its lack of a 120Hz refresh rate, phone capability, and facial recognition, and mention that it can get hot easily.

    I went to Best Buy because they were $100 cheaper, but when I eventually went they upped their prices. Other than that my iPad was in good condition, it was just a little annoying.

    Best Buy delivery is awful, buy elsewhere

    The ipad is fine but I had to buy it elsewhere. The Best Buy delivery system is absurd. My delivery was cancelled by the local drive and I was unable to reach anyone at the delivery service and after hours on the phone a Best Buy rep finally told my I'd just have to buy it again and trust they would eventually cancel and refund the original order. No confirmation, no way to ensure it would actually get refunded, completely ridiculous. Also you can get it cheaper elsewhere. I'd give stars if that was an option.

  • Buyer Beware

    Product is very good. Sales experience was wretched. We explained to the Sale Rep Named "Bingo" we wanted a cell ready iPad. Unbeknownst to us, he sold us a Wi-Fi only unit. We found out about the switch only when we tried to add the ipad to our cell plan. Returned to Best Buy ( a 240mile round trip) only to be told our only option was to fork over another $300 to get what we wanted. We could not afford the additional $. Would not have bought if the Sales rep had been straight with us.

    The iPad a16 is a far better deal as this version is overpriced and doesn’t really outperform. You are paying for the “M” chip and Apple AI only.
