    AWESOME TABLET

    It's been just over a month since I purchased my iPad and I absolutely love it. My son broke the glass on my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1, which I loved. Had it rooted and tweaked for performance. Stopped in Best Buy to look at the new Samsung tablets but couldn't see one I liked as well as I did my Tab Pro. I checked out the iPads and I liked what I saw. Fast processor, bright clear screen. Fast forward a month and I'm still impressed. What I'm most impressed with right now is the battery life. I can watch an hour long television program streaming from our cable provider and when it's over the iPad has 99%, if not 100%, battery life. There is one thing that annoys me but it's not a deal breaker, Android has more free apps to do stuff. Apple has the equivalent in apps but you have to pay. Like I said tho, no big deal. I love my iPad.

    Had a mini IPad, needed a upgrade. Much faster, Siri is more helpful, speakers could be a little better, but for my needs, I don’t think I can get a better tablet for the price.For 1/3 of the price of the IPad Pro, this IPad gives me everything I need

    Was set on buying a iPad mink but employee talked me into this one and I’m glad he did!!! Love the new iOS features (switching apps is a breeze now!!). Also, you can unlock with fingerprint- major bonus. Graphics are good and the price online is cheaper than in store. I had to call to get a $50 adjustment because I didn’t notice while in store. I was also able to set the iPad up by scanning a q code with my iPhone. Everything but apps transferred over!

    I have owned one other iPad, 4 th generation and the improvements that have been made have been a value added blessing. The screen has an improved resolution and sharpness a larger memory and extra speaker for improved sound quality, apps which are more like programs for processing words and data. Exceptional value.

    This is my first iPad and I am totally impressed with this tablet. Finally a iPad that is with in my price structure. Very reasonable price and superior quality in this iPad. Only wish I had bought the one with an Apple SIM in it. Anyone looking for a new first iPad or even those looking to upgrade their iPad to a newer and better model will like this one very much.

    For only $329, you get a brand new iPad with a processor faster than the more expensive iPad Air 2, and just a step behind the iPad Pro, which is twice the price. The screen is not laminated like the Air 2 and Pro (similar to the 1st gen Air) And the camera is a carryover from the Air 2, not as nice as the Pro. No support for Apple Pencil. But for the price, this is a very solid tablet.

    Had been searching for an iPad for a week trying to get a great deal and wow all of a sudden there was a great savings on this ipad and I knew i had to pounce! Nice! We even went back to get a 2nd one. It has finger print scanner on this one. Sleek and light weight. I got the gold one and silver one as well. We got a free 6 months of antivirus on 3 devices for each for the purchase
