    This iPad was purchased to replace the mini that we purchased about 5 years ago. Works seamless with our other Apple devices. Great apps, fast speeds, overall quality product. Great to have when traveling to check e-mails, surf internet, etc

    I traded my iPad air (1st) for this one and the differences are like night and day. I got the 128gig because my trade in brought the price down. Fits in the same case as the iPad air. I play games on my iPad and the battery life is excellent.

    The tablet is great for media consumption but thats all. lucky some accessories do work for it but good luck trying to find a comparable bluetooth stylus. I would say spend the little extra for the pro model if you want to be productive with your tablet if you want a cheaper alternative just for movies, music and online browsing then this is a better choice

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    The only difference between this iPad and the iPad Pro is that the pen can not be used with device and the camera is not as sophisticated. The processor chip is not as fast but again I don't really notice the difference. This iPad is great!

    I have been a long time owner of various KIndle products over the years and finally got tired of not being able to use it connected with various venues like the airlines. I upgraded big time to the iPad and could not be happier.

    Faster iPad Air 1

    As many Apple fans have noted this is probably step backwards from the iPad Air 2. However, I upgraded from a 2013 iPad, so this wasn't a problem for me. When I bought my new one, Best Buy had a $150 trade in on an old iPad, so I upgraded from a 16 gig to a 128 gig. I only use it for web surfing, games, and videos so I'm happy with it. I'd also like to say, since this is the same size as the original iPad Air, it fits perfectly in the original Smart Case, regardless of what the sales person says.

    Bought this in anticipation of a long trip (keep 4 yr old entertained). After family share enabled, added movies/shows/apps. Does the job for what she needs. Not too spiffy like iPad Pro, but spiffy enough. Would work for adult or 4 yr old.

    My new iPad replaced an older iPad 2. It was simple to move everything that had been on my old iPad to the new iPad through my backup on iCloud. The new iPad is able to be upgraded (other one was too old) and is much faster!

    I have been using an iPad since 2010 and I am discovering all kinds of new features. A lot of the things I am discovering seem to be very intuitive. Very easy to use some of the apps and discovering the new features on some of my open apps.

    I purchased this IPad to enhance my musical options, and to downsize from a desk pc. Did I ever make the right move. Convenient features, quick access, plenty of storage, for any body heading in this direction you will not be disappointed.

    I love my iPad. If you are an Apple user, than you will enjoy the easy of using this iPad. I have an amazon tablet, but didn’t like it as much and not all my apps were compatible. This was easy to set up with my iPhone and to sync.
