There's no way of expanding the storage space through a MicroSD card, The screen suffers from fingerprint marks, Slow to recharge
The 2018 iPad is ideal for those who want to use a stylus with their tablet but can't afford the iPad Pro. Simple to use, it may be a little slower and without the rotating speaker and keyboard cover of the iPad Pro, but it performs the usual tasks you'd...

The 2018 entry-level iPad doesn't add much, but it makes an already excellent tablet a better buy than ever...
The budget iPad from 2017 has been updated – Apple says it's an iPad for education, but it's actually a really impressive tablet for the general user who wants to get a great experience – and having the Apple Pencil support on there as well is great...

There's a lot to like about Apple's new tablet offering. It's more affordable than ever, it works with the Apple Pencil and, with a more school- and teacher-focused software offering, it will have greater appeal to educators than before.But if Apple reall...

Low price, Apple Pencil support
Unlaminated screen again
We'll start by conceding that this product is not intended for the likes of us. It's aimed squarely at the education section, and at the large segment of the population who fancy a cheapish tablet that runs iOS and runs it well. We will also point out tha...

Affordable price, Pencil support (and third-party stylus support), Works in the same way as Pro models, A10 processor
No Face ID, No ProMotion or True Tone, No Smart Connectors
If you're not buying this to use in the classroom, the iPad certainly delivers. It's taken what was already an amazing tablet and added more technology for a cheaper price. That's hard to argue in anyone's book. If you've been holding off buying a new iPa...
The iPad 2018 is a great device considering the price range it falls in. With the Apple Pencil support, it overcomes the lacking feature on its predecessor. There is no doubt it can be a great buy for casual users as it delivers a great entertainment expe...
The sixth generation iPad does not bring anything new to the table, if you discount Apple Pencil support (which by the way, you have to buy separately for Rs 7,600) and the speedier processor. The new iPad is a commentary on the tablet category as a whol...
