I have owned base iPads and iPad Air. Most consumer really only need a base iPad. I have no complaints about the A16 iPad other then I am not a fan of the latest OS release. The Liquid Glass effects are not great for anyone with compromised vision. You can only marginalize this effect to a small degree. I also miss the lack of a headphone jack too so you either have to use a dongle adaptor or use wireless Bluetooth headphones. The built in speakers are of good quality though. For the basics like email, watching content and other general tasks this iPad is plenty good.

This iPad is great for children or for elementary school students. Even though this is the latest model entry level iPad (at the time of this review) It is not compatible with some apps and games from the App Store. My intention was to use it for work, so I do not recommend it for this purpose.

I like this Ipad however I don't like the location of the on button %26 fingure scan. It's on the left side %26 I'm right handed. You will have to use your left handed. I don't like how to close out each app. I find it a little difficult to do. picture %26 speed is good %26 fast.

The product was in stock at my local store but it cost $50 more to buy it in the store immediately than to have is shipped for same day delivery. So I had to wait 5 hours to get something I could have picked up when I was in the store, Doesn't make sense

it was a hard decision to make this purchase for myself because I was torn between buying something for myself and purchasing something for my children. However, I’m glad I did! It is easy to use. It is great for the value. It fits in my pocketbook I can have all of my notes on all of my apps. Do not hesitate go buy it.

This is a great iPad at a great price. It’s much faster than my iPad I was using for the last five years and the upgrade has made it better for purchasing, medical appointments, travel reservations and maps. I’m a senior at age 70 and have no issues navigating through the APPS!

I debated getting a refurb but got this instead and I’m very happy. I have an iPhone 16 pro but wanted something I could keep my budget on and use for travel. It basically does everything my iPhone does, but larger. I love the ability for split screen multitasking. It is also pretty snappy as far as speed goes for a base model. What I realized with this iPad is what I already knew deep down…it’s an apple product and you already know what you are getting out of the box, there’s nothing new here. It does everything you need but doesn’t really wow you. I do wish at some point they would offer a 120hz model that didn’t necessarily have all of the capabilities of the pro, it’s about the only reason I would want a pro but certainly not worth the price to upgrade for me. Last thing, get a keyboard case, you don’t need the apple one unless of course you want to basically buy 2 iPads.

I am very happy with the purchase of this tablet, very clean, no dinks, all cables were present and I'm prestine condition. the tablet itself is easy to use , vibrant colors and very big. makes it a lot easier to use when one can't see small letters .

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Fantastic Upgrade — The New Apple iPad Shines The new Apple iPad is an impressive step forward in both performance and design. Right out of the box, it feels sleek, lightweight, and beautifully crafted—classic Apple. The display is incredibly crisp, with vibrant colors and smooth responsiveness that makes everything from browsing to drawing feel effortless. What really stands out is the speed. Apps launch instantly, multitasking is fluid, and even demanding tasks like video editing or gaming run without hesitation. Battery life is excellent as well; it easily lasts a full day of mixed use without needing a charge. The improved camera system is a welcome upgrade, perfect for FaceTime, scanning documents, or capturing quick photos. Paired with the latest Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard, it transforms into a surprisingly powerful portable workstation. Overall, the new iPad delivers outstanding value. Whether you’re a student, professional, creative, or casual user, it’s fast, fun to use, and built to last. Highly recommended!
