    Bought this latest iPad during the Black Friday sales. Great iPad at a great price. Needed something faster than my old iPad 2. I hated that Apple updated the iOS that rendered my old iPad uasless.

    Got this as a gift and of course they couldn't remember their Apple ID password. :( Anyway great product and works just like the phone OS. If you have an iPhone, then there really isn't a learning curve, just bigger screen for reading and online viewing.

    This is my first Apple product and I like it. Pro: Faster processor, easy to handle lots of applications, nice camera. Cons: No Apple Pencil support. You can't draw things while keeping palm on the screen. Sometimes observed that Facebook Messenger app not working with microphone and speaker. So you need to restart the ipad multiple times.

    The size is just right. Easy to set up, I wish the store carried more cases for this product. The name made finding cases a little confusing not sure why other generations are followed by a number and this one is not. Product overall is excellent though.

    This iPad was a gift for my Mom. She is 97 and this is her second one! Loves her iPad and now she is on the same generation iPad as we are. As is usually the case the iPad worked flawlessly from the start and the installation of her backup was very easy!

    Let's Make a Deal

    I love my 2014 iPad Air 2. But when you see a good deal then you have to go for it. I went to Best Buy and traded in my old iPad Air 2 and received $150+ gift card. I also received a $25 promotional gift card from them after I have purchased the new iPad. Plus I received Best Buy reward points from both transactions. I knew the iPad (469g) weight more than the iPad Air 2 (437g). It is only 7% heavier. I will lose the anti-reflective coating on the iPad. The benefits upgrading to the 2017 iPad is the fast processor and the 32 GB storage. No regrets. Good-bye to the discontinued iPad Air 2.

    This was a gift for my son who left his tablet on the plane last time he came to visit. They would not let him return to get it and said they would send it to him, which never happened. It was an old iPad2. He replaced it with an Amazon Fire that was just OK and cheap. When he got this he was amazed by all the improvements that have been made over the years. Touch ID and Siri have now migrated to the iPad. Photo resolution is great and the 2-way camera allows for selfies! It is so much faster than the old one and he finds himself using it more than his laptop for non-work related tasks.

    Had to update from my old IPad. This one is awesome, longer battery life and much lighter weight. Needless to say, it is so much faster than the old one.

    After the screen of my son's iPad 2 broke that it's not practical to have it repaired though it's still working, I've decided to get this one. It's not a pro version but still great for my nine year old's need. Hopefully it would last five or six years.

    Bought as a present for my wife’s birthday. She had an iPad mini before. Thanks to slimming down the sides on the normal size iPads, this one doesn’t take up that much more space than her mini. Definitely enjoying a larger screen on a smaller profile.

    I honestly loved this iPad but i felt like i had too many electronics; a TV, phone, laptop, and now a Tablet?! I returned it because it felt too much but now that i have a little one that likes to hang on to my phone and not wanting to give it back, i'm going to re-purchase! Its a perfect size for her and Best Buy has great priced cases for kids. I'm also going to be using this to mainly read because i'm going paperless with books! I loved the camera and the smooth surface. And like always, the workers were very helpful!

    I have tried windows and android tablets, and finally apple tablets and I am thoroughly convinced that iPad's are the best. This is the fourth one I have purchased in the past 3 years, and this is noticeably faster then the others. Great improvement.

    Replaces my iPad Mini. This is so much faster than my old iPad and because it’s bigger, it’s easier to see. Also lightweight, great display too.
