 Hey, so you want a new iPad. That's great. Let me ask you something though. Do you want to think about the future of computing and can the iPad replace a tablet and like what does the stylus do and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah? No. You want an iPad to do iPad things like watching Netflix or playing games and good news, Apple made it. It's called the iPad and it starts at just $329. Okay, I know you want to know more so I will give you some more information here. This iPad replaces the iPad Air 2 but it looks and feels a little bit more like the original iPad Air 1. So what does that mean? Well, first of all, it's just a little bit thicker than the iPad Air 2 and it also has a screen from the iPad Air 1. What does that mean? Well, first of all, the LCD isn't laminated to the glass so it feels like it's set back a little bit from the front of the device, which, whatever, it's not that big a deal. To me, the bigger deal with it is that it's a little bit more reflective than the iPad Air 2 but you know what, honestly, forget all that. What matters is that this is an iPad and so the screen looks great. It's a retina display and it's also very fast. It has a new A9 processor in it and so while it's not as fast or as beautiful or as high end as an iPad Pro, it's still very, very good at doing iPad things because, again, it's an iPad. Now this is the part of the review where I tell you about all the amazing new features of Apple's new iPad but I actually don't have to do that because this iPad is just an iPad. It doesn't have the smart connector that you would get on the iPad Pro for attaching keyboards. It doesn't support the Apple Pencil. The cameras, you know, they're fine. They're iPad cameras. And that's not a knock on this thing at all because, again, this starts at $329 and if all you want to do are the traditional iPad things, this iPad is great for that. And so honestly, the big question with this iPad is should you upgrade? And if you look at what's happening in the tech press or investors, everybody's super worried that not everybody's upgrading their iPads often enough for Apple, that's Apple's problem. That's not your problem. Your problem is does the iPad that you have now work good enough and if not, should you get this one? Let me break it down. If you have an iPad that's older than an iPad Air, this iPad is going to be pretty amazing. You're really going to love it. And again, it's cheap. But if you have an iPad Air or an iPad Air 2, this thing isn't going to be that much of an upgrade over your existing iPad so you're probably fine to just stick with it. Now there's two other weird things you might consider. If you really, really care about a beautiful, perfect screen, you could consider getting a refurbished iPad Air 2 but honestly, if you care that much, you should probably just spend the extra money and get an iPad Pro. It is a lot more but the screen is way better and it is a little bit faster than this iPad. I've been saying iPad a lot and that's because this thing is called an iPad but also because everybody knows what an iPad is. Everybody knows what they like to use an iPad for and Apple's not trying to reinvent anything with this iPad. It's just letting you do those things for a relatively inexpensive price. You can sit on the couch, you can watch your Netflix, you can play some games, you can browse the web and this does all that stuff incredibly well. It's an iPad. It's an iPad. It's an iPad. It's an iPad. Apple named this device iPad. The iPad. An iPad. This iPad. It's an iPad. It's an iPad. It's an iPad. And if you need an iPad, get an iPad. I mean if I have any notes, you say iPad a lot but that's kind of... It's just an iPad. It's an iPad. It's an iPad.
 Hey, so you want a new iPad.
 That's great.
 Let me ask you something though.
 Do you want to think about the future of computing and can the iPad replace a tablet and like
 what does the stylus do and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah?
 No.
 You want an iPad to do iPad things like watching Netflix or playing games and good news, Apple
 made it.
 It's called the iPad and it starts at just $329.
 Okay, I know you want to know more so I will give you some more information here.
 This iPad replaces the iPad Air 2 but it looks and feels a little bit more like the original

 Well, first of all, the LCD isn't laminated to the glass so it feels like it's set back
 a little bit from the front of the device, which, whatever, it's not that big a deal.
 To me, the bigger deal with it is that it's a little bit more reflective than the iPad
 Air 2 but you know what, honestly, forget all that.
 What matters is that this is an iPad and so the screen looks great.
 It's a retina display and it's also very fast.

 Apple named this device iPad.
