    It is faster than my old mini but it is really heavy compared to my kids iPad Air. Other than that it functions as expected.

    My older iPad had just stopped working, so I shopped around for the best price. Best Buy had the model I wanted at a great price. Done! Very happy with the customer service I received from the rep in the Apple department within Best Buy.

    My daughters bought me this for Mother's Day and I love it! I haven't touched my desktop since. Really clear and easy to use. I'm use to android devices and like this better. Would suggest a smudge/ fingerprint resistant screen protector.

    Cannot go wrong with an iPad, and especially when you get it at Best Buy! All of my Apple products come from BB and it's perfect. Easy, fast service, knowledgeable staff, you can't go wrong! I'll be back every time, for all my electronics.

    Wonderful Purchase

    I did a lot of research before punching this iPad. It was between this (iPad 2017) and the iPad Pro. For my needs this one was perfect. I have an ipad 1 and an ipad 4 and I must say this one is a great upgrade with a lot of added features compared to my old iPads and the price point is exellent. If you plan to do a lot of graphic intense work or need over 200 gigs of space the Pro is the way to go but for just casual use (watching movies, web browsing, blogging, social apps) this is the way to go. I also purchased a keyboard for writing and it connected without any trouble. This ipad is thin and light compared to the earlier generations that are not the air models and is pack with a fast processor. I ordered online for in store pickup and that was a wonderful experience. It was quick, easy and painless. I purchased the 128 gig ipad which has enough space for all my pictures and apps that I run on my phone. I could not be happier.

    My kids are having an increasing amount of school work on computers. We purchased their iPads to aid in school work, as well as to give them access to family members for communication without phones. Super happy with our purchases

    I really enjoy working on this iPad. The quality of the color and the printing is very very good! I have some poor vision and the print on this iPad makes it so much easier for me to read. I woul highly recommend this to anyone.

    Very nice! Love my new iPad. I purchased Samsung tablet before getting my iPad. I send it back the very next day because the software was very complicated, and unsafe to use.

    I was very happy when I bought this iPad from Best Buy but after 11 months it went back Best Buy wouldn’t do anything for me because I didn’t take the extended warranty but luckily I went to Apple and they gave me a brand new one which now I have now over one year!! Always take the extended warranty it’s worth every penny,,!

    We are in Apple family...iPhones iPads computer etc. We use the iPad to connect to all of our related accounts. Does a great job for what we use it for. Obviously there are cheaper alternatives, but for our family this works great.

    I bought this iPad thinking it was the correct one to use with the Apple pencil. 5th generation iPad do not support the Apple Pencil. Buy the 6th generation instead!

    Apple's new iPad delivers faster performance and a brighter screen than the model it replaces, at a price that's about half as much as the iPad Pro. Tight integration between the hardware, software and app store makes it easy to use.

    Always have been an Apple fan- always so user friendly and I love how everything connects through all of the apple products through the cloud and what not. I’ve grown up with Apple so it’s definitely my go to product line.
