    I have an air and pro but this is my favorite iPad by far. I bring this everywhere with me due to its convenient size. If you value portability this is the iPad for you.

    I had a little trouble seeing how to use it, but I do like that. You can have phone and messages on this one. My old iPad did not. It’s very compact, which is exactly what I wanted. And very fast!

    Upgraded from gen 6 after a lot of debate and very happy I did the proformance boost has made it run so much smoother, I never had any issue with the screen refresh rate or the jelly scroll and I like the style and not disappointed it did not change, and the new Apple Pencil pro turned out to be great as well and the new features of it have been welcome, I do a lot of drawing . the trade in BB offered and the sale price on the Apple Pencil was one of the top reason I went for it.
