    This IPad is fast, and does everything the higher priced ones do without the hefty price tag! I couldn't recommend it to anyone in the market for an IPad. In fact, I already have!

    This is my first iPad and I love it. It is the cheapest iPad yet, but still brings the quality you expect from Apple. The battery life is crazy good and I definitely recommend it.

    Love my new IPad. Purchased this 128 gb model after old 16 gb model kept running out of storage. Best Buy did a price match with Sam's Club so got this for a great price as well.

    I went with the lower end model bc it was on sale 128gb for $330. I’m very happy with that decision as I do not need the extra bells and whistles that the pro model has.

    A great tool for internet and getting your emails. The camera and video feature is fantastic. So many devices it’s hard to learn how to use so many features that it has.

    It was on sale because the newer iPad model was about to come out. So I bought it since my old iPad was, well, old. Great picture, great sound and apps! Two thumbs up!

    This iPad is a great tablet that I got for a tremendous value. So much bigger than my iPad mini 4; I primarily use it for e-book reading. Overall, great price, great purchase!!

    This thing is probably the best purchase I've made all year. Apple really sets itself apart from the competition. A lot better than the cheap windows tablet I was using before

    Does everything that I want. Upgraded from original iPad mini, so this is a large improvement. As with all Apple products, I wish they would incorporate gorilla glass screens.

    Previously owned 16 GB Ipad Air, kept running out of room. What they don't tell you is that the basic operating system takes up a LOT of space and you're really left with only 11 GB or so. This newer model is basically the same Ipad Air. Same size, same weight. But the processor is noticeably faster. I wish it had newer features to get excited about, but I'm satisfied nevertheless.

    I had been skeptical of buying another iPad after my first one died on me but I am thoroughly satisfied with this one. I really like all the new features and how slim it is.
