I bought my wife the iPad 2 many years ago and have always wanted one but never went through with buying one. I finally did it and this iPad is amazing. It just works unlike some of the cheaper brands out there. I think it is light, the picture quality is amazing, it’s fast, and the 128gb gives me more space than I will ever use. I don’t know really what else I could say except that if you are looking for a great tablet iPad is the only way to go and you won’t be disappointed apple in my opinions is the best out there. I typed this review with my iPad and it is so fast and easy with accurate touch for typing.

I bought this to use as an entertainment device and as a means of communication with family spread out over the world. The processing power is plentiful, with the A9 Apple processor. The front and rear cameras perform better than expected for a tablet. The storage is excellent for my needs, I travel a lot and have over 1,000 songs, 20 seasons of TV shows and a whole collection of movies with more than enough storage. The resolution is crisp along with the color vibrancy of the display on the Retina screen. The battery life is superb, usually lasting me entire 12 hour shifts at work. My only complaint is how fragile the screen is. I gently set it down on concrete while it was in my gym bag and there’s now a hairline crack on the edge where it impacted. Other than that, a great product due to its cheaper price than the Pro versions and definitely useable by all ages.

I was used to bringing my MacBook to and from class but now my back pack is lighter because I just bring my iPad instead. It is good size and does everything I would need it to do. Enough storage to keep my eBooks for school and has enough processing speed that keeps up during game play. Overall I am 100% satisfied.

We've used this (latest version) iPad for 6 months. It is very fast and the 128GB is substantial, even when downloading (saving) movies for viewing off the internet. The screen picture quality is outstanding. While not inexpensive, it is a great value. If you're looking for a great tablet (especially an iPad), this one will do you well.

I have owned many iPads and this is the best one yet. As you would expect, the Retina screen is absolutely gorgeous and the processor has no problem making sure your apps load quickly. The AC wifi range is quite good, no complaints there either. Battery life is also superb, I only have to charge it every few days, despite plenty of intensive YouTube video streaming.
Yes, its more expensive than the competition, but worth every penny. It is much cheaper than the iPad Pro model, yet it does everything I want and more. Buy with confidence!!!

Love, love, love my new IPad! When my very old IPad gave it up, I was unhappy; now I know why things happen! New IPad faster, lighter weight, better screen, better photos, more memory! What more can I say! Best thing to happen this year!

I purchased this IPad for my 65 year Mother and she loves it. It’s easy to setup and has the perfect capabilities for her needs. Lots of storage and a great size. Not too small and not too big.

My 8 year old son has had his Apple IPad for a little over two years and I can't say enough positive things about Apple products. Even after two years it runs like the day we bought it and the battery life is still Iike brand new. The only reason we bought another IPad is because his old one is 16GB and my little guy loves his apps, photos, videos, and downloading movies to watch on long car trips/camping trips. I decided to get him the 128GB so he has more room for all his stuff and I'll take over the 16GB IPad...Mommy score! I can browse Pinterest or catch up with a Ebook by the pool (wishful thinking!).

A very functional iPad for the money. Service at Best Buy was fantastic. The Apple rep was there as well when I went to make my decision and purchase and between the Best Buy salesperson and the Apple Rep all my questions were answered. I was somewhat doubtful this model would do what I needed when comparing to the iPad Pro model. There are certain differences - but if you can get passed the differences and truly get to what you want to use it for, this could be the iPad for you. It certainly is for me. I found this out through conversation with the reps and actually having each demonstrated and then using each in the store at their display. For what I needed, this iPad is quick and very easy to read the clear display. The speakers are good (not the same as on the Pro), however, certainly very good. Using it now for two weeks, I have no reservation about the choice. The screen is bright and Apps open, close and run without a hitch. It came with iOS11 installed and using the multi-app split screen feature is great! If you like an easy touch interface this iPad has it (they all probably do and I am pleased with it). It is used inside the home and at the office. The sound output is plenty loud and the headphone jack is welcomed so I can listen to music or podcasts without bothering others. I purchased the 128 GB model and could not happier with this iPad and the service at my local Best Buy.

This was an upgrade from and older mini, and it is so much better to view and see the screen. The faster performance and larger memory is much appreciated.

Like every other iOS "lemming" out there, we have the phones and the tablets. So this is just a repeat purchase of a product everybody already knows and loves--especially with 128GB size. What a monster. I keep wondering if they will continue to make the traditional 9.7 inch iPAD, but then I remember that they are the entry-level device (other than the Mini, which I love, but may also have a doomed shelf life). Anyway, my daughter is gonna be happy to finally replace her Gen 1 tablet

I've had 3 other versions of the iPad - the first, second generation and iPad Air. This 2017 128GB iPad with WiFi is the absolute best. I just upgraded it to iOS 11 and the new features are awesome. Camera is really cool on this one too. I love watching videos on it. Its basically more powerful than my computer. I haven't had one problem. Had one app that crashed a lot but it turned out it needed to be updated and it was just a game by some other company.
All in all I highly recommend having an iPad. They're super useful and super reliable. Oh and they come with iWork now so you can make word processing documents, spreadsheets and presentations right on your iPad. I even bought a bluetooth keyboard to go with it. Got the Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Keyboard 2 from Best Buy with my iMac and they work with my iPad too. But I still got a tiny one that fits in my iPad case for travel.
Had a problem with an iPad or iPhone. Just turn it off and then back on again and your problem is usually solved. I try to do that once a week anyway just to avoid ever having a problem.
Oh and the battery lasts a long time.
