    It's an iPad. I don't have to say anything about its many strengths amd few weaknesses, you know what they are already. Instead, I'll put it like this - if you have an iPad Air 1 (the model with the A7 chip) or a 4th gen or earlier iPad, you should upgrade. The new model is seriously fast. Also, pay the $100 extra and get the 128GB model, so you can keep a media library on your iPad. Best Buy's trade-in program is pretty fair and pays decently if you're swapping iPads, so keep that in mind when you're looking at the initial price of the device. Also, as a side note - if you currently have an iPad Air 1, you can reuse manu cases with this iPad. Some cases will need modification where the volume buttons are, since Apple moved those buttons up and got rid of the rotation lock/mute switch. Other cases should work without a problem. Keep in mind that modifying a waterproof case does do away with the waterproof ability of the case.

    New Improved iPad

    I had my previous iPad for five years and it had only 16 GB. This new iPad comes with 128 GB providing me with much more memory. It is fast operating and the camera is much clearer than the older model. It was high time that I upgraded and am happy that I did so.

    I like the screen size and how many features it has. The battery life is good. I have not used the camera much. Wireless printer connected easily. I am still trying to find the best way to share with my iPhone. The cloud filled up so fast.

    It’s faster than my old 6 year old iPad. It is thinner so more easily fits in my purse.

    I had an older model ipad (3 Retina) 32G and it was getting slow and overloaded. This new one is faster and has 128G. I like the slimness and light weight of the newer model. I just don't like that all my music does not transfer over, the ones I added not through itunes.

    My favorite iPad yet

    Coming from an original iPad Air this is a big upgrade. I'm an artist and I originally tried out the 12.9 but it was just too big for other uses besides artistic endeavors. The 10.5 is the perfect compromise as there is still enough space to work on a project. The 120hz refresh rate is super nice too as it really makes the overall experience more enjoyable to the eyes. Worth the money in my opinion.

    The interface is really responsive and apps load pretty quick. The battery life is great and I typically only need to charge it every few days using it an hour or so per day. It's also pretty lightweight, so pretty convenient for sliding into a backpack for a trip.

    I decided to buy last year iPad model as pricing was better and what I needed. I have been very pleased with the performance and speed of my ipad. I am still learning all the features. Geek squad was great with helpful start up info.

    I've been using this iPAD to test my software application and i just loved it! Instead of dragging a big laptop around a tradeshow floor, i decided to just take the iPAD. I was very happy with this decision, it's lightweight, had tons of battery life and people were impressed that my product along with partnering products works -- and this is for the engineering community! Thank you, Leslie
