    Easy to use. Easy to handle. Paying bills on line is easier than trying on the phone which is small for this grandma.

    Very convenient device to use for work or school. Now supporting the Apple Pencil is a big plus. I did have some issues getting FaceTime - iMessage to work on this iPad. I ended up return the first iPad mini for a second one that had a flawless setup.

    This is a great all around simple tablet that my son can use to watch YouTube kids and it won't be slow or laggy. The battery on this one doesn't last as long as the one I bought for his twin sister so your mileage may vary. Be sure to get apple care!
