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.

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.

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

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

I've focused a lot in this review on what the new Apple iPad (2017) doesn't have and, although the existence of the iPad Pro series makes that inevitable, it isn't a particularly fair way to view it.

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.
