Exceptional battery life, Great performance, Crisp Retina display, Premium design
Display is not laminated, No stereo speakers, Thicker and heavier than previous iPads, Slightly overpriced
Overall, the 2017 iPad is a very solid tablet that ticks all the right boxes. It has a nice and crisp Retina display, solid build quality, the iconic iPad Air 1 design and truly superb battery life. In fact, it is one of the few devices whose battery life...

This is a reasonably minor upgrade, with only three differences between the 2018 and 2017 models: you get a new processor chip, Apple Pencil compatibility and a slightly different gold colour option. So unless you're desperate to start using Apple's stylu...
Great app ecosystem, Easy to use interface, Slick and reliable performance, Long lasting battery
Screen not quite as good as the iPad Air 2
This iPad offers a solid, consistent tablet experience at the lowest price we've seen from Apple in a new, full-size tablet.In essence, it answers the question for those with dying 2-3 year old iPads who want to know what they should upgrade to, without s...

Unlaminated screen feels cheap, Thicker and heavier than last two iPads (although still pretty slim)
Strong battery performance (well ahead of Air models, a little behind Pros), Decent processor and speed, Comparatively low price tag
We've heard this described as the iPad: Education Edition; you might also think of it as the iPhone 5c of Apple's tablet range. However you put it, this is an unexpectedly cheap offering, but one that is also generally low-specced and has a design that's...
Abstract: The best tablet for your child will depend on their age. LeapFrog and VTech make tablets which are well suited to young children from around 3-6. When kids reach around 6 or 7, they no longer want what they see as a 'toddler's tablet' and will start askin...
Obviously the Pro is a better device. The display is much nicer under the fingers and features a higher-quality panel. It's faster, has superior cameras, advanced features such as Apple Pencil compatibility, lasts longer on a single charge, and you can ge...
With Apple's iOS software so much better suited to tablet use than Android, the reduction in price for its standard 9.7in tablet looks as if it will further cement its grip on this sector of the technology market.Not only is this new iPad well priced, wit...
It's another iPad in the continuous generational March of the iPads. It doesn't have any new gimmick, special tricks or significant must-have-it feature. If you don't have an iPad and would like one or if your old iPad is on its last legs, like ours, it's...
