  • scratch-resistant, oleophobic coating, Dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n connectivity, carrier-dependent hotspot support, Optional 2G/3G GSM, CDMA, LTE connectivity (data only, separate models, Optional GPS...
Cons:
  • More expensive than 7" Android tablets
  • only $70 cheaper than iPad 2
  • No Retina display
  • 162ppi only
  • Same chipset as iPad 2
  • now two generations old
  • iTunes still required for most of the content uploads
  • Reflective screen struggles outdoors
  • No standard USB port
  • Lightning accessories still rare...

Pros:
  • Good price
  • good size
  • all the advantages of a tablet
  • great video and audio
  • all the apps
  • all the features of I devices
Cons:
  • Like all Apples
  • not massively configurable
  • a new proprietary cable to worry about
