The 10.2-inch Retina display offers sharp and vibrant visuals, making it enjoyable for everything from streaming videos to browsing the web. The A13 Bionic chip ensures smooth performance for multitasking and running apps, and it handles most tasks with ease, from casual gaming to productivity work.The iPadOS provides a user-friendly experience with access to a wide range of apps and features that enhance productivity and entertainment. The addition of the Center Stage feature during video calls is a nice touch, keeping you in the frame as you move around. Battery life is impressive, comfortably lasting through a day of regular use.For those seeking a dependable tablet that offers great performance without breaking the bank, the 9th generation iPad is a solid choice. It delivers a good mix of functionality and affordability, making it a practical option for both casual users and those needing a device for work or study.

I got this for my kids my youngest being 4. I love it so much better than other children tablets. It has much better child safety features, easier to use, and because I have an iPhone I can also control the safety features form my phone. It’s much more durable than other children’s tablets especially if you get a children’s case. I’ve gone through 3 other types of tablets and I will say it’s worth the money to get the iPad.

Great tablet, The screen is a nice size and sharp. This iPad is plenty fine for what I do, emails, Facebook, online surfing and shopping, playing around with photo editing. The battery life is way better than my Acer Laptops. The only things missing wish it had was a usb-c port or a sd card slot, but that’s honestly not a huge deal for me.

Admittedly, I bought this for art purposes and haven’t used it for much else so I’ll be rating it based on that.Being away from home, I was without my tablet for a while, so… purchased this. A year later, and I still love it! Even now with my Cintiq, I still enjoy how mobile this tablet is. Want to draw still life at a museum? Take this, it’s perfect! Or even in my own home when I don’t want to sit in front of my computer for hours, I can simply draw on my bed or while watching TV. It’s BEYOND helpful.Now, how does it work, though? Easy, like a charm.Even now, with how much time has passed since I bought it, it still works like new! It doesn’t lag so drawing isn’t a hassle, and personally, it’s the perfect size, too. Not too small, nor too big. The quality of the screen is also perfect, and the split screen feature? Soooo useful.My only complaint: I wish the battery life was a teensy bit better, but that’s trivial.I still honestly can’t recommend it enough, especially at under $400 (without tax, at least), it’s cheaper than a lot of screen tablets with more features, too.

I have an iPad 4, but this one is faster, clearer pictures & easy to see. I’m older so I needed that. Love it.

Love the color! The charging is sort of fast, battery life is durable. Performance wise it’s pretty good!

Little older but works great. Takes the Apple Pencil (dupe) just fine and runs at a good speed. Can’t go wrong with iPads, and a good price because it’s older.

The older ipads required me to use the cloud service to switch devices, that is no longer the case.. Also I hate cloud services cause they are a security risk as if anyone hacks your cloud service account, they get everything you have there, its not a good idea.. This is my moms new ipad cause her old Ipad Air 2 battery bit the dust.. I asked gemini how much faster this one was and it said 2 to 2.5 times faster than my 6th gen ipad, but the ipad air 2’s I think it said the ipad air 2s are 5 times slower than the A13’s.. For the record , I have a quest 3 VR headset and Gemini said its performance is on par with a M! or M2 processor, and the Quest 3 is designed for VR/AR applications whereas the ipads are not.. I have noticed in web browser performance the Quest 3 is super fast.. IT was question cause I use USIO and the V1.5 update of the Web Interface is super sluggish on my 6th gen ipad.. According to Gemini the A14 is 20% faster.. And the M1 is significant;y faster, like a 100-200% speed up.. But you can ask Gemini about that stuff. The Quest 3 I have is the 512GB model, its about $800.. So if youa re thinking about the Vision Pro, my opinion is to wait until its proved itself, the Quest 3 roughly the same performance, and you will have to get all new apps for the vision pro to use VR, the Quest 3 is all vr..Anyhow back to the A13 based ipad here.. To install it all we had to do is take the old iPAd Air 2 with ios 9 I think it was.. and hover it over the new ipad, the new ipad had this starfield in a sphere that was moving. I also had top enable the bluetooth on the old ipad.. IT took in all about 10 minutes to setup, and didn’t require password access, it only use the pin and touch to setup.. It would first connect via bluetooth, possibly using a Asymmetric KEy encryption like your web browser, thats is a foolproof way of connecting devices over untrusted networks.. They will then exchance a symmetrixc key which is impossible to hack, the asymmetric is is more impossible but it requires a lot more processing power thats why its only used for the initial handshake to setup the connection. Asymmetric keys cannot be used without both ends of the connection having the same key, and if you passed that over without a secure connection, it would be dead easy to decrypt. If it wasn’t for Asymmetric key encryption business would not be possible on the Internet. Well I take that back, asymmetric key encryption combined with a certificate server which validates the connection between both parties to prevent middle man attacks, is necessary for business on the net.. Anyhow you can tell I’m a brainiac..It really only required hand holding for me to install this pad.. My mom is easily intimidated.. But I’m sure she could have done it on her own talking to some telephone support from appl if it came to that. But cause I’m in the same house, it was easier for her..The screen seemed larger than her old Ipad Air 2.. She has two of those, one only has 16GBs on it.. I decided I need one myself,so I got the exact same model to replace my 6th gen iPad.. The screen scale is larger than our old iPads.. So it should berefreshing to use.. It also said something about reduced glare, and Apple gen 1 pencil support, which makes it great for artists, giving it tilt and pressure support.. But I’m a AI guy, so I prompt everything..

I purchased this model of iPad two years ago along with an Apple Pencil for digital note taking. I paid around $340 and thought it was worth it then – at the current $250 price tag you can’t beat it!It’s a great little device for note taking of course, but its also great for digital media consumption. I’ve found the screen size and resolution to be more than good enough for enjoying YouTube videos, movies, manga, etc. while still being a comfortable size to take with you. It’s a nice middle ground between a phone and something more substantial like a laptop or TV.As for the age of this model, I have found that the processor and storage are sufficient for my use cases. No stuttering or loading at all. Of course, I only do light tasks on my iPad, but why would you want any more? That’s what a laptop is good for (as much as Apple wishes otherwise)!With so many Apple products rushing to break the bank while removing legitimately useful features, you really can’t go wrong with something like this. Sure, a newer, higher-end model would be nicer, but would it really be $400 nicer?
