The 2018 iPad (sixth-generation) is the small update the spec sheet promises. It is faster, but a still outdated SoC and Apple Pencil support are the most important new features. Both the battery runtime and the power consumption suffered due to these updates but are still good in general.

Pencil support; lower price for schools and students; excellent build quality and choice of materials; good display

non-laminated display with significant gap to the glass (but easier to repair in return; camera not improved for years; no current SoC

Apple Pencil adds versatility; A10 chip brings better performance; iPad Pro 'feel' for low price

No Smart Connector

Apple is aiming at the educational market with the new 2018 sixth generation iPad, but the addition of Apple Pencil support has generated a lot of commercial interest in the device. It is obviously superior to the popular iPad 2, but will it replace your iPad Pro

The new iPad 2018 is the cheapest tablet in Apple's range, and it looks just like any other iPad from the past five years. It should be boring. But it isn't. It packs the powerful A10 Fusion processor, costs just £319/$329 (for the entry-level 32GB Wi-Fi model) and it supports the Apple Pencil.

Great value; Slim and light; yet powerful; Apple Pencil compatible; iOS is the best tablet operating system

Reflective screen; Average rear camera

Fast, responsive, easy on the eyes, packed with features and, thanks to iOS's small number of devices, compatible with almost all apps.

Upgraded my iPad from Argos recently, very impressed with the speed, picture quality and audio from two speakers. Ideal for FaceTime and Photos with our family who all live abroad. Easy to get started, upload apps, read papers, watch TV/movies/radio/podcast, shop, game, hobby, banking, book holidays...

Once again I am a proud owner of another Apple device. I have never had a problem with any of these devices and would recommend to anyone. Never will be cheapest on the market but always will be the best.

I'd only owned an iPad mini before this one because of probability. But I went ahead and got the 9.7" tablet, and I'm not disappointed. Feels great in the hands and super thin, which means that by the time you wrap it in a case, it'll feel pretty comfortable.

Bought as an upgrade to an iPad Air 1 which was beginning to show its age. Performance gain is very noticeable and also a Decent price for the 128gb storage.
