The 2018 entry-level iPad doesn't add much, but it makes an already excellent tablet a better buy than ever.

The 2018 entry-level iPad supports the Apple Pencil for art work and annotation, and adds a faster A10 processor. iOS continues to offer the best overall selection of free and paid apps on affordable tablets.

Lacks the bigger, better screen, quad speakers and Smart Connector found on pricier iPad Pros. The Pencil, case and keyboard add-ons will bring the price up to laptop level.

Apple's bare minimum still beats everybody else

It's an iPad; It's fast; Supports Apple Pencil

No smart connector; Speakers only on the bottom; Not quite ready to replace your laptop

This an iPad upgrade and it works wonderfully well

I bought this Ipad to replace and old and sluggish Ipad 2. This is incredible. Fast, peppy - set up was a breeze too. I wish I had done this sooner. Don't hesitate - it's a terrific device.I took advantage of Target's temporary special pricing during a recent sale which helped me to decide to...

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.

Apple's sixth generation iPad is a notable update over the model it replaces and makes even more sense as the most affordable iPad now geared more towards education and creative users.

This is a great ipad but just be careful with the attached keyboard and case. It scratches the screen of the tablet as it moves around somewhat. My screen is now scratched quite a lot. The keyboard is not that easy to use as the buttons on it are quite small and not the easiest to use or see.

Apple has only itself to blame for this: the sixth generation of the iPad is a cheap iPad, or at least cheap by Apple's standards. You get the sense that it was cheaply produced around almost every corner, and yet Apple has still produced an enormously good tablet with its 2018 edition.

Strong performance; High-quality apps

Display isn't exceptional; Slow fingerprint reader

Apple iPad 9.7-inch 2018 review: Priced Rs 28,000 and above, we would recommend the iPad for children of all ages as a good learning tool.

Last year, Apple introduced its cheapest iPad (non-Mini, at least) – the £339 iPad 5th generation . It came with no bells, and absolutely no whistles – its case even copied 2013's iPad Air, rather than the thinner, slicker look of the iPad Pro 10.5-inch or iPad Pro 12.9-inch.

Great battery life; Good screen; Sufficiently powerful; Great value

Weak speakers; No TrueTone screen; Camera isn't very strong
