Ipad 9 gen

I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR, tablets, gaming and future/emerging trends in our changing world. Other obsessions include magic, immersive theater, puzzles, board games, cooking, improv and the New York Jets. My background includes an MFA in theater which I apply to thinking about immersive experiences of the future. 2021 All of Apple's new iPads have relatively fresh designs… except for the basic iPad. While the new iPad Mini just got a total makeover, the ninth-gen non-Pro, non-Mini, non-Air iPad still has that big old circular home button. And it still has big bezels around the screen. There's no USB-C. No Magic Keyboard or newer Pencil support. But I'm OK with that, and you might be, too. I'm writing this review on the new ninth-gen iPad. I'm able to do this because the iPad allows connections to keyboard cases, like the Apple smart keyboard cover I'm using to write this. It's not as good as the Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro and Air, but it's good enough (and costs less). And good enough is exactly what the ninth-gen iPad is: In fact, compared with all other iPads right now, it covers all the bases best. Let me explain. iPads are secondary devices for most people. Maybe even tertiary devices. After phones and laptops, of course. But they're also pretty essential and useful for a lot of people. Families, kids.

Apple’s iPad remains the tablet to beat. Amazon tried to unset it with sub-$100 pricing, Microsoft came at it with full Windows support, and Samsung tried with its superior OLED display. None managed to unseat the iPad. With a few minor tweaks, Apple continues its tradition of gradual improvements without an increase in price, which is great news if you're on a budget. So the iPad continues to fly off shelves and, for many people, should be both the first and last tablet worth considering. The iPad’s combination of versatility and value is unrivaled.
