    Traded in Ipad mini 2 for new 9.7 Ipad. Better screen to read web pages and books. Don't have to adjust the pages to read them. Overall happy with the upgrade.

    My first generation ipad had seen better days. The latest 2017 ipad with 128 GB memory is a pleasure to use with much faster response time and downloads. Yay !

    This is really a great product. I use it for viewing pictures and watching games on the app. The large screen is easier to see and navigate than an iPhone.

    I've had tablets for years and most usually bought less expensive Android tablets as iPad's always packed a premium price tag. Then comes the new 2017 iPad. It's now much more affordable and high quality. All though not as high quality as in the past. The biggest cut back is the screen. It is a plastic non-laminated screen. It almost looks and feels like a restive touch screen from the early days of touch devices. It's bound to scratch easily, feels cheap, and touch responsiveness is diminished. I purchased a tempered glass screen protector though and it restores the more premium feeling and durability, it even increased the touch responsiveness, all in all it now feels like iPads of the past. Other than the screen it's a great device for the money, just buy a glass screen protector.

    I needed something for work that was a little more portable than my old MacBook, but didn't break the bank. The new IPad does everything I need and then some.

    I bought this tablet because the memory is a part of the product, not on a sim card. Transferring my android info to the apple tablet was so easy. I love it!

    No complaints here. Even the change in the screen is hardly noticeable after the first few uses by the kids. Much faster than the iPad Air they traded.

    Best Buy employee was very knowledgeable and very helpful to me in making a decision between the iPad mini and the regular ipad. I was leaning towards the mini, but after asking me various questions about my intended usage, it was clear the ipad was the better option. The other stores I had visited didn’t go into detail like Best Buy. Yes, most often people don’t like to be bothered by a salesperson, but this experience was the exact opposite and I am thankful for being approached during my visit. Also, he did a price match which made it all the more worthwhile!

    Got a good trade in at Best Buy for my IPad Air2 16GB. Did not need a pro so the 128GB 2017 was a good choice for me. Best Buy made it an easy transaction.
