Great for amateur digital artist
July 30, 2018
I've had this iPad for just a few weeks but I love it. It arrived brand new in original packaging with all the standard accessories. I bought the iPad for the sole purpose of using it to start getting into digital art. When I say sole purpose, I mean I only use this iPad for ProCreate. I never have the internet on or use it for videos since I use my MacAir or iPhone for those things. I purchased the Apple Pencil and it works wonderfully on this iPad. For anyone who is interested in this more budget iPad for digital art or taking notes, I would recommend it.
I bought a case for the iPad and it isn't as light as you might think. It has some weight to it. So if you are someone who really needs a REALLY lightweight tablet, this might not be great.
The battery life so far is amazing. But, like I said before I don't have the internet on or any other app running besides ProCreate when I am using it.
Maybe in two years this little guy won't be running so great, but for right now I am so pleased with my purchase. The one thing I might regret is not buying the one with more GB of memory.
If you are looking into breaking into digital art, or would like to start doing digital illustrations, I would recommend this. However, for someone who has a good grasp of digital art or has used a previous tablet, consider the size of this tablet. If you need a lot of space to draw, this screen size might be too small and you should consider the 10 or 12 inch ipad Pro line. I have small hands and haven't ever used a tablet to draw before so it works great for me.

Extremely fragile
January 27, 2019
I bought this iPad as Christmas gift for myself and together with the apple pencil I was planning on using them for a more productive semester at school. One day I put this iPad on the table(about 1.65 foot tall) and it dropped shortly after I left because of imbalance. I didn't even think what was about to happen as I used my iPad Air(first Generation) for years and it dropped multiple times from place much higher than this table. When I went check my iPad, I was shocked, the entire screen was broken, the tiny glass pieces falling off and cut my finger. I couldn't believe this screen being this fragile, if this wasn't me but a young kid I couldn't able to imagine how bad things could turn to. Apple shouldn't allow its product to has screen this fragile, it's definitely a safety concerns for all its consumers. I called Apple and hope they can help me, the people whom answered my phone call keep telling me there is nothing they can do, and my only option is to replace my screen for 249.99 (yes, exactly how much I got this iPad). This whole thing is so ridiculous, I've never seen a electronic product being this fragile. For all of you thinking about buying this product, please make sure you got yourself a case, for your own safety.

I am really enjoying my new iPad, and I’m so glad I paid a little extra for the extra storage (128GB) so I never again have to second-guess downloading something I really want due to space concerns, Also love the color - somewhere between Apple’s rose gold and regular gold. I do a lot or reading on my device, and the white border is easier on my eyes for that.

The clarity of the pictures and everything on my ipad is very very impressive. I have an iphone and for other purposes use dell and asus window computers. The size is great. Some things require some more research, like how to get extensions added to safari, but thanks to the internet questions like these are quickly resolved.
If you like clear pictures and text and easy navigation, then the iPad is for you. I noticed that the battery drains a lot slower than on my iPhone, but then it seems to take a while to charge once it is drained. Plugging it in at night should always give me an ipad ready to go.
So happy with this purchase.

I’ve had iPads since the very first one. They just keep getting better. This is no exception. I’m looking forward to being able to use the new Apple Pencil with this iPad. Info says it’s compatible with this model. My only regret is that they dropped the 64GB version. But 32GB is sufficient for me. I’m learning some options to reduce what is actually stored here. But it is a joy.

Awesome tablet! A must have for me and what I have been using it for.....Apple is nice and I use android a lot so… This was a big unknown for me… buy one you won’t regret it…you may want to grab one with a little more memory if you need that but for me and my wife 32 gigs was more than enough…

Very happy with my purchase :D I tested an iPad Pro and didn't see a huge difference. I use it mainly for digital art. Couldn't be happier.

I love my new iPad, I arrive in perfect condition, with all its accessories. It works perfectly.

Ordered the new iPad because the sale was too good to let go. I had wanted the iPad Apple Pencil pair, so being able to get both for the price of just the iPad after tax was worth it. Apple got us, yet again. Not that I mind though, I love my apple products. This iPad is a great example. I will primarily be using it for digital art/graphic design/photo editing adobe type programs. I’ve used half the Wacom models, including the cintique. Haven’t had a chance to use the new iPad Pro and pencil, but for the more affordable version, this earns all 5 stars.
#1, gorgeous screen, easy to set up, easy to use right out of the box. Set up is even easier now if you have another apple device. The setup prompt me to grab an apple device logged into my account already. From there I entered my passcode on my phone, before I knew it the iPad was asking if I wanted all my apps brought over, or if I wanted to start fresh. They took what I thought was already a pretty easy process thanks to iCloud, and made it even more user friendly.
#2, it feels like the money you spent. Unlike other android devices I have attempted, iOS devices have never let me down in the quality department. This being said, it’s not as light as the kindle fire or what have you, but it’s going to last longer and be a more enjoyable experience over all for the extra couple of ounces. It’s not heavy compared to my MacBook, which is why I have it. Fits in my purse while still being a gorgeous screen to watch movies on. Retina displays will change your life, and ruin every other screen you look at.
#3, the Apple Pencil. I get it now. And do not regret a single penny spent. The pressure sensitivity, accuracy of the accelerometer, how fast it charges, and how the pen to screen experience is closer to paper than anything I’ve ever used. I’m talking Wacom Cintique level accuracy on a tablet. It feels unreal. I love my moleskines more than the next person, but I’m worried they might be getting less use in the coming months just because this is so user friendly.
I’ll be sure to add battery details or any updates, but those 3 alone were enough to sell me on the purchase.

Product arrived in the original package, seal still intact. Package arrived promptly and as described. iPad is gorgeous and is exactly what I was looking for! I was on the fence about purchasing an Apple product through Amazon, but everything came as promised and it works amazing! Would highly recommend!

Much faster and less glitchy than my Air 2, battery lasts longer, no longer have trouble finding nearby networks. I know people said it’s not worth the upgrade if you have an Air 2 but it was totally worth it to me.
