The 2017 iPad's new, aggressive pricing is laser-guided to take down premium-priced Android equivalents. That, plus its impressive battery life and infinite well-curated apps, make it today's best-value tablet.
Pros:
- Newly competitive price for its screen size
- Solid construction
- Strong app ecosystem
- Satisfying battery life
Cons:
- Incrementally thicker than predecessor
- Slow charging

New Apple iPad 2017 review: Solid, affordable replacement for the aging Air
With the tablet market slowing down, and upgrade cycles being so long, Apple could perhaps have been forgiven for focussing mostly on its laptop-challenging Pro series. In fact, it's been almost two and a half years since the regular full-size iPads got a refresh.
Pros:
- Great app ecosystem
- easy to use interface
- slick and reliable performance
- long lasting battery
Cons:
- Screen not quite as good as the iPad Air 2

Plenty of space & power at a great price
Replaced my iPad gen 4 model with this new model, mostly because I wanted more storage space for my apps, games, photos, videos, etc. 128gb is the way to go...plenty of space and room to do it all! ... nad the A9 chip in this puppy races with fast responses to any demands..

Sure, there are some compromises compared to the iPad Pro, but the 9.7in iPad (2017) offers everything many people will need in a tablet: good performance, screen and camera, and excellent battery life, at a very competitive price.

It's hard not to compare this fifth-generation iPad to the tablets that came before it as it's essentially a hodgepodge of hardware and components Apple already had lying around with the latest iOS software slapped on top. But a Frankenstein's monster this is not.
Pros:
- Respectable battery life
- Sturdy and lightweight
- Beautiful design
- Affordable

Amazon sells a Kids Edition of its Fire tablet, which is the exact same tablet they sell for adults, but in a kid-friendly case, with a year's worth of the FreeTime Unlimited service for kids apps and content. Apple does not do this. But at $329 for 32GB of storage, the new iPad is pretty close.

Apple iPad (2017) Review
With its epic battery life, speedy performance and brilliant display, the 2017 iPad is the best tablet for the money and one of the best tablets overall. It may be a tad heftier than the competition, and it doesn't break new ground, but people who want a long-lasting, large-screen slate with plenty...

Apple iPad (2017) Tablet Review
Old wine in new bottles – we hear this quite often when a manufacturer refreshes a supposedly old product. Especially when it is equipped with dated technology. This is also the case for Apple's latest iPad. The iOS tablet from 2017 is just that: recycled, dated hardware in an even older chassis.
Pros:
- bright display
- accurate colors
- precise touchscreen
- excellent build quality
- long battery runtime
- high browser performance
Cons:
- outdated SoC
- very glossy screen
- old LTE standard
- slightly increased black value
- no support for Apple pencil

Review: Apple's 2017 9.7" iPad with A9 CPU isn't a game-changer, but it isn't supposed to be
The 2017 9.7-inch iPad isn't intended to revolutionize Apple's tablet offerings, but it does go a long way to unifying the product line, and paving the way for the future of the platform -all starting at just $329.
