I thought I would love the iPad, but I don't even like it at this point. I love my sister's iPad, my son's and others', but mine won't stay connected to wifi. I tried to troubleshoot using Apple's website, called AppleCare several times, and ultimately sent the iPad to AppleCare for repair. But my iPad still doesn't work. In the same locations that my iPad is nonfunctional, I can use my sister's iPad (she has the iPad w/retina display, too, and I set hers up the same as mine) with no wifi connectivity issues. But every time I try to access the internet, I get the message that my iPad is not connected to the internet. I go to settings, select the wifi connection, and if it connects at all, it's only briefly. This happens not just with my home router, but at my place of employment and other wifi access public places (where other iPad users report no difficulty and I have no problems with my laptop, etc.). The AppleCare folks sent my iPad back in 2 days (fast service but the porblem is not solved) with a form letter that states my iPad meets Apple's specifications for acceptable performance. Unfortunately, it doesn't meet my standards. I have a $700+ lemon. I know the Apple iPad is amazing when it works (and it usually works, according to the vast majority of reviews). If Apple replaces this lemon with an iPad that actually works, I will update my review accordingly.Update-1/13/13: I spoke with AppleCare again and was instructed to send the iPad back for maintenance--this will be the second time. Why should I expect it to work this time? What a a waste of time! Another week+ without a functional iPad. If the problem persists after this encounter with AppleCare, I was told the iPad would be replaced. I am becoming more disillusioned with Apple. I have had experience with other iPads and know they can be wonderful when they work, so I would not advise against buying this iPad. But purchase with the knowledge that there is a significant problem with wifi connectivity attested to by many consumers on Apple's own discussion forum. I'm thoroughly frustrated with this lemon and my experience with AppleCare!Update-1/28/13: After a few returns for maintenance without improvement in performance, Apple replaced my new iPad with a refurbished one. It connects to the internet, but is slow. I've updated my router, called my wifi provider, and it's still the same. If I could, I would return this one. One of the big selling points of the iPad is the ease of use and mine has been anything but easy to use with this wifi connectivity issue. Another big selling point is the fast connection speed--not so for me. I would have been far happier with a netbook and completely regret this purchase.

I really like this product. I was debating between the iPad with Retina display, and the Kindle Fire. I tested both, before purchasing the Apple product. I found the Kindle Fire very difficult to use and navigate through. While the iPad is VER Y user friendly. It has very easily downloadable Apps. Very easy to navigate from one App to the other. It has very sharp resolution. In fact, I really could not discern any really noticeable difference in resolution between the iPad and the Kindle Fire. I am sure that professionals,with an "eye to detail", might possibly notice a difference, but for "every day joes", like me, the iPad is perfectly fine. Price wise, I got a good deal on the iPad I purchased. I was only going to purchase a 32GB, but, as I was researching and debating, I just happened to find the 126GB for about the same price as the 32GB. So, don't be impatient, wait, search, and let Amazon get you a really good product at the best price.

I had my iPad 2 for several years before switching to the new iPad mini with retina display. The retina is pretty but to me its unnecessary; i thought the resolution on my iPad 2 looked just fine. The newer processer in the mini with retina is what really impresses me. I didn't realize that i had gotten accustomed to waiting a few seconds for apps to open and again while switching between them. This new iPad mini doesn't have any of that "lag" i experienced with the iPad 2. It switches between apps seamlessly and quickly. It also has impressive battery life, i can start the week with it fully charged, watch netflix on my breaks and lunches at work and i will usually run out of juice about the end of the day thursday. And i use it throughout the day to check emails, online banking, send iMessages etc. Also, despite some reservations i had at first about the smaller screen size, the clarity more than makes up for it and it is the perfect size for holding in one hand. I'll never go back to a full sized iPad.

The tablet I ordered arrived well packaged, in mint condition and in the time specified. The problem I encountered was with Apple. I wanted to purchase their Apple Plus warranty, but they only allow you to do that within 30 days from the date of purchase. When I applied, Apple asked for the serial number of the device and after entering it they informed me that it had been purchased by the reseller several months before and, as a result, they would not extend me their product warranty. I explained that the device was new and in the original packaging, but the representative I subsequently spoke with said that because it had been on their shelf for months they couldn't verify it's condition. I asked if it would make any difference if it had sat on the shelf in an Apple store for the same period of time and the rep said he had to speak with his supervisor. When he returned he said that Apple would not offer me their warranty and advised me to return the device to the seller and buy a new one from an Apple store. How does that make sense?

I have had this for about a month. I haven't filled it up with apps yet but I've used it a fair amount already. It works quickly - takes nice pictures (love the photobooth app that comes with for taking goofy pics with special effects.) I am not super proficient with Mac products - I'm really an Android girl.... but... I am kind of annoyed at having to use the central button to close things and its a little clunky to switch between applications. I bought it to use both for entertainment as well as for work. I'm planning on using it for taking classroom observation data, notes etc. The display is beautiful, it is very lightweight and the battery (with light to moderate use) lasts for several days. I've really only had to charge it twice BUT I haven't used it to watch videos or download TV shows yet.... I like the smaller size, it is easier to carry - just a little larger than my Kindle Paper. I foresee using it much more in the future as I find more productivity apps and possibly some magazine subscriptions.

I own an iPad because it has business apps I use that are best used with a touch screen. One pros side, there's not much I can add to what's already been said. It is great and I'm glad I upgraded from an iPad 2 to iPad 4.But I'm deducting one star for the following reasons:Apple wants to upsell you from the iPad 2 to the iPad 4 mostly on this criteria:1) Siri. There's nothing revolutionary about it. For most it's answers it just spits out Google search results and then you do the rest. People are fascinated by it because it throws a few human-like colloquialisms.2) Retina display. I upgraded from an iPad 2. To quite frank, things do no all of a sudden jump out at you in iPad 4. Yes, I do like it. And it's very nice to be sure. But the Retina Display is just a name someone dreamed up that makes it sound more innovative than it actually us. High resolution is everywhere. It's just that Apple give it a snazzy name and suddenly, it's like the a new invention.3) "A6 is 2x faster than A5" Huh? Reality check. This one is probably where I feel people are misled the most. To me the A5 is noticeably faster and that's nice. But in real life "twice as fast" means 50 mpg vs 25 mph. Or flying from L.A. to Hong Kong in 8 hours instead of 16. To me the speed difference is more like flying from L.A. to Hong Kong in 14 hours instead of 16.All in all, there a lot of hype that used to make the iPad 4 sound like a quantum leap rather than the incremental improvement that it is. Thus we pay more for it.That said, I like it a lot, but mainly for the reasons that people have liked the iPad ever Steve Job unveiled on that big screen behind him...not because of these minor improvements.

** Bought directly from AppleI use this tablet everyday on the subway ride to work.Use it to study lecture notes.Use it to play games.Use it for my investment related activities.Use it for video conferencing.Probably have around 100+ apps.I will say one thing: Apple engineers do their very best to deliver a polished product. It's like the Toyota and Honda cars from the 80-90s, the engine keeps running even if the frames falls off.In daily usage of over a year, I don't have a SINGLE major complaint about this product which is pretty amazing seeing as I try to find at least one thing to not give a product 5/5... I could nitpick on some minor things but this tablet is really that good (my macbook pro for example has a poorly designed graphics card that overheats all the time and makes me hate the product...) but this tablet, I would give it 10 stars if I could.Battery lasts forever, touch screen is the most accurate I have ever used, screen resolution is ridiculous (not just on paper, physically look and compare with competition), OS does not crash and the damage done by an app is contained to its process (very similar to QNX), plethora of apps including Google Chrome, Skype works great (anyone who has used Skype on Android knows what I'm talking about), and the list goes on and on...The only improvement I can think of is the weight and an affordable cover case for the tablet. Apple will never open up their OS which is basically why I keep at least one Android product with me to stay out of the distortion field ... but man that distortion field is bliss :)

I have been sitting around for years debating whether or not I should purchase an iPad. I kept putting it off because I own an iPhone and have for about five years now. I don't know why I waited so long. I opted to purchase through Amazon since I have yet to have a bad experience and I have to say this is no exception. It arrived sealed in its box and as soon as I took it out I instantly fell in love with it. I own a Kindle (with special offers) but downloaded the Kindle app and ended up using this thing non-stop to study for my NREMT exam. My guilty pleasure is watching Netflix on my computer at night as I fall asleep but now that I have an iPad (and a Lifeproof case I purchased at the same time) it has been a lot easier on both myself and the machine, haha. If you've been putting it off you won't regret purchasing it. I am just sorry I didn't dive in sooner.

I think this is a good product just not really what I needed it for. It really doesn't do that much more than the iphone except the display is amazing, it takes really really nice pictures, and the sound is much better than an iphone. You really don't need extra speakers unless you are using it to listen to music and have a larger living space.I bought it because I work online and thought it would be nice and compact to work from but better than my iphone. I NEVER work on it. I mean I can check email and all of that but it's just not a laptop. I should have passed on this and gotten one of the thin little laptops instead.Also if you get one, get some kind of warranty and get a cover for it before it even arrives. It's more fragile than the iphone. I did not have a cover on my iphone when I first got it and dropped it a few times and it was fine. I was in the process of looking for a cover for this ipad and dropped it and the screen cracked. It's going to cost me at least $160 to get a new screen. The more protected it is the more places you will take it and the more use you will get out of it. I was at disney world's magic kingdom a few weeks ago and they have this amazing electric show at night. It looked like an ipad commercial. Everyone was holding up their ipads and recording it. But again I would be hesitant to haul it around without sufficient protection.So the graphics are amazing and it's a fun little gadget to watch movies or play games with.Oh I'm also in a few bible studies and the bible app is WAY better than on the iphone and you can also download books on kindle app. I do this with my bible study workbooks and you can fill it the blanks and answer questions and everything. The youtube app looks good.I'm not sure what else to say other than everything works and it's not defective. I just don't have a lot of money for "toys" so I wish I had gone with the laptop.

This Ipad 4 is my first Apple product. After opening the box and setting my AppleID, I downloaded a few new applications,just to see how everything works. However, I was greatly surprised by noting that none of these applications can beremoved in the usual way (by pressing the icon, waiting for an "x" to appear, etc.). I contacted Apple support; they explainedme how to remove these applications with the help of iTunes on PC. That was OK, but certainly I didn't expect that removingan application should be so complicated. Although the Ipad was declared as being new, I had the impression that somebody used it before and messed the iOS. Being rather disappointed, I start playing with the device for a few days. Not knowing what else to do, I decided to reset the iOS (iOS6 to iOS7). Surprisingly, that was a step that resolved all the problems! The Ipad started working normally, and I don't expect to have similar problems in the future. Nevertheless, such an incorrect behavior of the iOS at the very beginning was frustrating for a device declared as new. Now it works fine.

I was worried about this device not being fast enough considering the newer model is around double the processing speed according to benchmarks. Everything I have used this model for has not had even the slightest hick-up or delay, including artwork using the jot 4 touch pressure stylus (procreate).Overall I still prefer android for phones, (used both plenty) but as far as tablets go Apple's iPad takes the cake. You won't find things like Emulators (legal reasons) though, and now that they have Google Now (Siri feels more like a gimmick a lot of the time when I try to find information) there's not a whole lot of reason to choose android other than price.Also, the battery life on this thing is amazing. It's rated for around 10 hours, but for me I can sometimes go almost a week before needing to charge it.

This purchase was a huge disappointment for me. It arrived extremely fast, which was great, it was in excellent condition for a used iPad. The problem lies in the fact that iPads are not checked to make sure they are no longer connected to the previous owners iCloud account. In the event this happens there is absolutely no way to use the iPad (I tried everything) which makes it a huge disappointment. Especially since this was the second one I purchased (the other was from another seller) that arrived "locked". Although I had a terrible experience with this item customer service was quick, friendly, and I received a full refund as soon as they received the item back. So it could've ended worse I suppose. My daughter had to wait an additional two weeks after her birthday for her iPad (which I purchased new in a store) but everything is ok now.

I've tested this device extensively in the local Apple store, and there's no doubt in my mind that it's the best version of iPad to date. For this it deserves 5 stars. As an owner of the "New iPad, aka iPad 3rd generation," however, I feel that Apple did an injustice to those who purchased it.The previous version was released to much fan fair in March 2012. This version was released a mere 7 months later, in October 2012. When I called Apple to find out why they would release a newer version so soon after the previous one, the representative who I spoke with informed me that there were problems with the 3rd generation, and as a result, Apple removed it from the market and introduced the generation 4.I have no problem with the fact that technology constantly changes, and that computers are outdated in short order. What I have a problem with, is the fact that Apple prematurely introduced the 3rd generation of the iPad knowing full well that it wasn't ready to be sold. While Tim Cook was onstage last March promoting the 3rd generation of the iPad as the most revolutionary product ever offered by Apple, he knew that it was just a stop-gap measure until the components were ready for the model that you see here.I love Apple products and have always thought that the company treated their customers in the highest regard. As a result of the above, I now feel differently about the company, not the products. As of this writing, Apple sells the iPad 2 and the iPad with Retina Display, aka the 4th generation. They do not sell the 3rd generation at all, as the one listed here is what the 3rd generation was supposed to be. I feel that this is very deceptive on the part of Apple and believe that owners of the now obsolete 3rd generation model should be given the option, for a fee to upgrade to the model presented here. I spoke with customer relations at Apple regarding the above and was told that this would not be an option. They readily agreed that there were "issues," with the 3rd generation model, but refused to tell me what they are. In this regard, they are certainly not being very transparent to their loyal customers.So, the bottom line is that the iPad with Retina Display is a marvelous device, however owners of the previous generation got screwed. I'm giving the model presented here 5 stars, because that's what it deserves. On the other hand, if I had the option to grant stars to the way Apple treated owners of the previous version, I would give them just 1 star.

I purchased this unit to replace the unit that I returned, since this is a much better unit: it has a 1.3 mg pixel camera, versus the previous one that has 0.9 mg pixel front camera, much better suited for skyping. Unfortunately, I had an accident, with this unit being a casualty: I was on a cruise ship and it was accidentally knocked overboard. Not to worry: My insurance took care of it! I bought a replacement one with a white bezel and more storage space(32GB), with which I'm very happy. As noted on another review, the only drawback with the Ipad is that there's no room for expansion of storage space and you cannot just watch any video off line that you want: it has to be compatible with the Ipad. However, there is a workaround to that. watch your videos from a cloud drive such as dropbox (icloud doesn't work)

From an Android based perspective, this device will get a 4-star if not 3-star for many reasons. While loyal Apple fans or people who want to use the basic apps but appreciate its design you'll likely give it a 5-star. So I had to go with the 4-star to be fair.Where the iPad 3 shines:- Gorgeous screen; not much complaint here as watching HD movies including Netflix and YouTube video is amazing- Thin & lightweight; for its size, it's not too big of a hassle to carry around- Beautiful design overall; Apple pretty much set a standard for today's tablets and they still keep simplicity in a beautiful design- Simple; you don't need to know how to use Apple products, great for kids and adults that aren't exactly tech savvy- Amazing battery life; I could play Minecraft for hours and don't eat up batteries like other tablets do- Very responsive; for the most part depending on the app. Rarely freezes (yes, it still does freeze from time to time) and is fast enough to run any HD games and apps.Where iPad 3 doesn't impress:- No flash. Flash enabled sites either need a flash compatible browser if not you cannot view the content.- No GPS for the Wifi version; this would annoy you if you're looking to use it for navigation (you'll need separate GPS module made by another company that cost at least $100)- Slow charging; with the wall charger it comes, it does charge very slow. The only negative side of the longer lasting tablet- Keyboard is not intuitive; difficult to type in landscape mode, no swype or other after-market keyboard like Android has- Expensive; for the money you'd think you'll get more out of the unit- Screen size icons; for the massive screen, you don't have a way to cram more icons forcing you to either create folders within or use multiple screens.- Many apps that are free on Android market often times are not free on Apple Stores.- Proprietary plugs; when will Apple learn? No HDMI, mini-USB, etc.I personally recommend the iPad Wifi version for:- General entertainment for games, movies and news reading + where Wifi is available- Children; easy to navigate and use- Don't care about GPS navigation or use it for related purpose- Are not tech savvy or don't mind not having flash options- Want something simple and reliable- Want long battery lifeI don't recommend the iPad Wifi version if you:- Want to use this in the car, boat or wherever you need a GPS for navigation and plotting- Want to do any sort of modification including custom ROM's- Need flexibility in terms of the O/S- Are looking for cost savings and best bang for your moneyPersonally I'm more of an Android guy than Apple guy but it doesn't mean Apple's products are bad either. It's one beautiful tablet I've ever played around with (it's my wife's) and aside from it not having GPS and other features available on Android, it's a solid performer.On a personal note, if they come out with a 7" tablet I wouldn't mind owning one. Especially if it had GPS even on the Wifi version I'd buy one in a heartbeat. To me, the pro's outweigh the con's for the iPad 3. For as long as I can remember I've been a PC-guy where I didn't care for Apple but ever since iPod's came out, they've really changed the computer industry.You won't regret your purchase either way. Just take note of what's not on the device and what to expect.

This ipad is AMAZING. I have been the proud parent of many tablets prior (Asus TF 300, Galaxy Tablets, etc) and nothing compares to the silkness of the ipad 3's OS, processor, and retina display. My Asus TF internal chip overheated and my galaxy tablets constantly froze, which frustrated me...As an average consumer who always looks for the most efficient way (money and quality wise) to purchase products, I did tons of research concerning the comparison of the ipad 3 and 4. I realized that shortly after the release of the ipad 4, the ipad 3 was discontinued from being produced and not even sold or offered in stores while the ipad 2 still was. This led me to assume that apple discontinued the ipad 3 in order to make more money selling the ipad 4, since people would just buy the ipad 3 instead since the ipad 4 would be priced a 100-150 more, just for a half-second speed boost over the ipad 3, while they both held the retina screen.So overall, i highly recommend the ipad 3 to the 4, as you can even buy a used ipad 3 for 250. if you want a half-second boost in speed and bragging rights to say "i have the newest ipad", go ahead with the 4. If youre an efficient shopper looking for a consistent, fast, and retina displayed ipad, stick with the 3.

This is the first iPad I have owned, and was skeptical about spending so much money. I had tried out other people's iPads, and was really happy with how they ran, and thought it was much better than any android tablet on the market. Long story short, I got a great deal on the iPad, and went for it. First impressions were, well, love at first sight. The iPad has a great hd retina screen, which offers a very eye pleasing viewing experience. Boot time was very fast, and setup took less than 2 minutes. I am very happy with the options that come bundled wth the iPad, such as find my iPad, iTunes, and iCloud. Apple support has been fantastic as well. One call or email has been enough to answer all of my questions. Overall, the value of this iPad can not be found in any other tablet on the market. If you are thinking about the iPad, read the features, and all of the positive reviews. I promise you will not be disappointed with your iPad.

Buying a first generation anything Apple is always a little risky. I usually wait for the "S" model phones to come out, personally.This is a great iPad. The retina display is mind glowingly sharp. Games? Unbelievable. Movies? DONE. Laptop replacement? Pretty much!It is the last 30-pin model, so if you're all iPhone 5 and 5S with the lightning connector, don't throw out your 30 pin cables yet!Only legit complaint about this dude is the charging time. This thing takes literally 8 hours to get a full charge. EIGHT. HOURS. A little absurd. But it's the first retina display iPad! And it can get a little warm when playing a graphic intensive game. But, stick it in a case and you won't notice.Overall, great buy! I kept checking the "used" section on Amazon until I found a perfect condition, used-like new 16GB iPad 3 being sold for under $300. Not a scratch on it. SCORE!

I have owned almost every tablet made to date. I love technology & when a new gadget comes out I have to try it out. And when it comes to Tablets the Apple iPad is where it's at! Granted the iPad doesn't offer a lot of things that other tablet manufactures offer (i.e. card reader, expandable storage) but when you think about it, do you really need it? Apple allows you to purchase a app & you can install & uninstall as many times as you wish on 5 different devices in your home. I originally purchased the iPad 4 when it was first released. My two 4 year old daughters picked it up one day & was interacting with it like they went to college for computer science!! I couldn't believe my eyes. The iPad is that easy to use. Well as it turns out I ended up having to buy another one because they were having a hard time sharing the one iPad. :-) I would have purchased the new iPad Air but that would have started another argument. But now that I think about it I might have to purchase a third iPad cause now I'm the one waiting for a turn to use it. iPad air here I come!!

This was my first and last Apple product. It works wonderfully, the screen is beautiful and the apps perform almost flawlessly. What I dislike was 97 days after I bought it they came out with a new model that made mine obsolete instantly. Seven months later the same thing happened and now mine was 2 generations old in les than 10 months. I am not against implementing new advances but Apple knew way before I bought mine that I was buying something that would be obsolete in 11 months and they sold it to me at full price. I can hear their CFO saying: 'another sucker we took money from with an obsolete product sold as if it was the top of the line'. I expect better of the companies I buy expensive hardware from, that if they know what is going to happen just start discounting the current - but soon to be obsolete product - so the CUSTOMERS would stay loyal. They had me and they lost me. Good luck to them with their bait and switch way of doing business.

Android, Nook, Kindle, Surface, Asus... My husband likes buying gadgets and in the last 18 months we went through as many tablets, but we liked none of them. Finally, he gave up and bought me an iPad mini 2, and we both LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Only regret is we should have bought a 32GB or 64GB model, maybe with cellular, but we only had limited funds. Will be saving up for a higher model and let the kids have this one. The iPad mini is just so much better than everything else. Sorry, Amazon! I love Amazon but even the latest Kindle fire is UGLY and very difficult to use. All Android tablets are boring and susceptible to viruses. The iPad mini gives a consistent experience. I just wish the App Store had a grid listing view like on Windows 8. Other than that my iPad mini connects to WiFi every time and maximizes the speed, unlike the other tablets. The screen is totally the best! I play Amazon videos and they've never looked better. The kids love it, too, and wonder why we waited so long to get a "real tablet" in their words as opposed to those low-quality imitators.

First no support for Flash. This is a huge problem. How can you not support this? Is it being fazed out, yes, but not for a long time. The lack of Flash hurts a lot of the websites I have tried to go to.Next, their new maps support. These maps are terrible. Why kick the company to the curb that has already done all the work, put all the money needed into it, and is proven itself. Why? Apple has gotten a big head again, and believes that whatever it makes it just has to be better.Touch sensitivity: I used my friends iPad 2 for awhile after he upgraded to the iPad 3. He told me I had to try the new version. The touch sensitivity seems to be off. It does not have the response of the iPad 2, Samsung Tab, or even a Kindle I used to have.Retina display failure: I see no difference between the iPad 2 and the new iPad. If you are looking at upgrading to the new one for its display don't. There is nothing special about it. It is just a numbers game.Must use iTunes: iTunes is one of the main reasons I will never own an Apple product. This software is awful. I cannot believe they have not made it easier to use. If you want to buy all your stuff through apple then yes, oh yes they make it easier. But what if you are not brain wasted by apple and you want to use Amazon to get your music for a better price? Not so easy to get it on the iPad. The software is a joke.No support for other video formats. This device unlike all its competitors has said no to supporting standardized formats. If you are buying this device and wanting to transfer your current videos to it, don't. It will only support the apple format.Your apple ID: This is nearly the worst part of the iPad itself. You cannot do anything on the iPad without this ID. It is terrible, and if you forget your security questions you will need a crack team that can get into Fort Knox to get back in. Why are these questions so important? Well it took me over a month to help my mother fully get back into her apple ID because if you upgrade to a new apple product and you do not know those questions? Good Luck! You may never get back in. And if you have spent a lot of money in iTunes it could be lost. BEWARE: write down your security questions.So much for ease of use. I have had in the past year family come up saying with a big smile I just got the iPad. I tell them good luck with that. They go off and "play" with it for awhile. Then they come back and ask how to you download apps, how do you transfer music, how can you put DVD's I already own on it, how can I view this website it says flash not installed, and the list goes on. It took only about a month for one family member to ask me what is this good for then?I then smiled.I stand by my word. It is an overpriced toy.
