Great recipe book!
By Paulina on Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2020
Believe it or not I bought this to use in the kitchen for my recipes. I bought a stand for it as well. My old free Google Fiber Nexus 7 tablet finally died due to battery issues (it blew up like a balloon). This is the first substantial Apple product I've ever owned (unless you count the first ever iPod made) and I am pleasantly surprised. I use Android exclusively in my life but I saw what a great price and size this iPad was and couldn't pass it up (especially because it was going to be a glorified recipe book). Besides I thought that if I didn't like the Apple experience it still wouldn't be a loss because a $50 tablet can be a kitchen recipe finder - this iPad just has a few extra perks so I could use elsewhere if need be. Setup was extremely easy even though I haven't logged into my @me.com address in literal years (nope I'm not that good, I had to reset my password haha). I like the big crisp display which is a huge change from my 8 year old Nexus tablet. I feel a little dumb at times not knowing the quirks of Apple products but I'm getting there. Everything is lightning fast to open and very smooth. I used the tablet for about 3 hours almost non-stop and the battery went from 92% to 82% which was an awesome surprise. I have all of my recipe bookmarks in Chrome and logging in/getting my bookmarks was not a painful process at all (I thought it would be). I'm just a little bit bummed that I can't make Chrome the default browser but considering I don't do my day-to-day in the iPad it's not a big problem. As long as I was able to use install and use Chrome. I installed some basic apps that I thought would look better in a bigger screen but still be mobile like WebToon, Discord, Duolingo, reddit, Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, and YouTube. They all work and look great. I can't compare this price point iPad with one that is more expensive but I can only imagine that a more expensive iPad is 10 times as smoother/nicer looking than this. I don't think I'll ever be able to find a flaw with it, especially with the way in which I use it. For my purposes I would recommend this iPad to anyone that asked. As always with everything in life, you get what you pay for. If you want better graphics pay more money.

Horrible OS. Third party add ons worthless. Overpriced Apple keyboard and pencil.
By William A. Van Gorden on Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2021
The iOS is nothing like past Apple operating systems. It’s not intuitive, clumsy and most third party additions like a Bluetooth keyboard suddenly stops working as it should after an iOS update. If you’re loaded and want to spend well over $100 for any official Apple product to make the iPad useful beyond playing games and streaming movies. I’ve been an Apple user for decades. That’s right, decades. I have not experienced anything as bad as the iOS you must run. Why you can’t use a Mac OS is beyond me. I wanted a simple writing machine that I could draw on. Instead I got an expensive nightmare. My Galaxy phone is easier to use than any iOS device. After owning this iPad for several months I have all but abandoned it as it’s not useful. Simple apps like gmail are sabotaged with errors for basic functions. I only use Google products on it because I can’t use pages. Basically I use WiFi to log on to Google. If you have an iPhone and like it, go ahead and buy this product. After buying the Apple Pencil, and key board you’ve almost doubled the price to make it useful. Doesn’t have enough memory to hold many videos so you’ll have to have a WiFi connection or fast streaming service. Can’t run iTunes either. I’m stuck with it. If I had known now what I didn’t then, there’s no way I’d purchase any iOS device and especially one that hides the high cost of an additional keyboard and pencil. Don’t buy any third party devices. They’ll not work after the next update. It won’t even alphabetize apps unless you go through a clunky process that’s supposed to reset the apps on your home page. That’s right. You have to go to settings and reset the home page to do something as simple as alphabetizing your apps. I’ve read the support pages and received help from other iOS users and I always have the same question. Why should I have to look this up to make it happen? On the 4 desktops and 6 laptops I’ve used the OS has never been this poorly constructed. You could easily figure out how to do basic functions. If you want a decent screen to stream movies or play games and check your emails this is the over priced product for you. If you want to write on it without taking away half the screen to use the keyboard on the screen, you’ll have to buy the Apple keyboard in the case that that supplies no protection well over $100. Want to draw, spend $100 or more for their pencil.
