    It was a worth product compared with anyother iPad. It's a 2017 iPad just like the 6s, I was expecting to getting a great camera on it, but it doesn't follow my mind I can say the camera is totally sucks, I can't even take a normal photo, I went back to Best Buy looking for a change, but they said it's not an iPhone the camera is always like that in iPad?!?!? IDN NOTHING CAN SAY. Everything is fine except the camera.

    The iPad is nice.. but besides having finger sensor... It's the same as my older iPad air 1st Gen . I hit YouTube videos at exact same time and my old one opened faster. I thought I was upgrading but it's the same. It's slightly thinner and maybe a gram or 2 lighter but at that weight it's not enough to upgrade. Not sure why it's slow slow after 5 years later in tech advances .

    Great Price, Fantastic Upgrade

    Although my iPad2 that I upgraded from had a larger capacity of 64GB instead of 32GB, I couldn’t pass up the deal here on BestBuy. My iPad 2017 is so much faster and can handle so many more applications by far than my iPad2... which actually still works and has held a perfect charge for the last 6 years. Proof that Apple builds their devices well. Sadly, my ole iPad2 just couldn’t handle the heavy HTML programming of most websites like BestBuy. This is the very reason I decided that for about 200 dollars (on sale), I couldn’t pass up the offer. Like everyone else, I am impressed. Did you know that the new iPad has a night mode with warm lighting? I didn’t. Cool! Anyway, iPad2017 is sleek, thinner than the iPad2, lighter and so much more faster. Highly recommend!

    I like the product, but additional memory card provision would win my heart to give 5 star rating.
