Best tablet computer.
By Kyle M on Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2021
This is honestly my favorite way to use a computer. HDR 4K content is great, and it gets pretty loud so my wife and I can watch something together. I watch a lot of lecture/educational content often while taking notes. The large extremely high definition screen makes reading text in a video easy, or easy to share the screen with my note taking app.It’s not perfect though let me go over some things that could improve.The bezels are so small holding it can be awkward.The mini keyboard makes typing while holding easier, but I wish the mini keyboard had a bit more like a number row.The blooming can be annoying, but it’s basically only noticeable during load screens.The camera probably should be positioned for landscape video calls not portrait.I wish I could play nes and snes games on it. It has more than enough power to run emulators, but without jail breaking there is no side loading.This thing is expensive, but if you think you want to use a tablet. This is the one.Side note about me: I use a one plus 6 Android phone and my computer is Linux/windows so I’m not an apple fan boy. I do think the iPad is by far the best tablet computer. I did have a MacBook Pro and it broke and I learned why repairability is important. Don’t buy something you can’t afford to replace it. So get AppleCare+.

Great 12.9-inch iPad Pro with 1 warning
By Wayne H on Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2024
Having used a 10 inch iPad, and iPad Air, for many years, there was a LOT to love about the 12.9 screen on the PRO wit mini-LED;1. Its a lot bigger, so nice for viewing2. Its a lot brighter3. The sound seemed better4. Battery life is excellent5. Performance is excellent6. Blacks, & Contrasts, are much better than my IPAD & IPAD Air (See warning below)There is a small issue, & one major issue.The unit is thin & heavy. Add a case, and its even heavier. So be aware of that, especially if you hand hold for a long time. That should be expected, so that my small issue.The biggest issue by far, and not known at the time of purchase (never disclosed by Apple) is when using this in dark locations, like reading or watching TV/Movie in bed WITHOUT LIGHTS ON. During the day things are crisp & nice, and very clear. In dark location there is "blooming" where bright white backlighting leaks out from white text (or objects) into the black areas. So;1. During the day, a black screen with white writing (or the time, or photos etc) is clear & crisp, with good contrast. Easy to view, or read, etc2. In the dark, the same looks awful, with a hallo around white wording the leaks into the black. Even the lock screen looks bad.For such a expensive top of the line IPAD, it was surprising to have such a visible display issue, especially given my much cheaper IPAD don't have this issue.Buy a cheaper IPAD that uses LED (not mini-leds), or if you are use to OLED TV's & love true blacks and great contrast, without a hallo effect (like my 8 year old LG OLED TV) get the new OLED versions of the iPad. Please do note though, if you are using it at night, for example in the evening, and have lights on, this isn't a noticeable issue, its in a dark room with no lighting.If using only during the day, or evening with lighting, I would have rated this 5 star. Unfortunately I use this a lot in dark locations, so given there was no disclosure of this issue by Apple, and it was promoted as their best iPad, its only 3 STAR. (Not 4 star, because my $200 iPad is better in a dark location!)If you are interested this model, and intend to use in a dark location, check photos or video reviews of this blooming issue first. (It's hard to view in retail shops or the Apple store, because they are too light)
