I purchased one of the first iPads. I think Steve Jobs might have still been alive. I LOVED THAT IPAD. I was told I was dumb because the second version would come out soon with all the crap gone and I’d wish I could get that one. WRONG! I did get the second generation and gave my blue color husband my 1st generation. It was a great way for him to learn how to use it. He still loves his iPads. It’s been a great routine and we’ve done it every since. I purchased my 12.9 iPad Pro 2021. This was my 2nd 12.9 if I remember correctly. It’s a little soon to do it again but my last iPad is giving me problems I’ve never had. After I have used my iPad long enough to get the iPad warmed up the buttons start not responding for me. Like in TechTribe if I push to see a video about a product it will not show that video. I can try to start that video for an hour with no response. If I open my older iPad or one of our two iPhones the video works immediately. This happens on a very regular basis now. The iPad itself almost feels slightly bent. The iPad is so thin that this worries me. In fact when we purchased it it really did worry me so we purchased really nice and firm holders.I am so frustrated, is anyone else having my same problem? I would like to keep the system we have going. It’s to soon to get a new one, especially now that we are retired and on very fixed incomes. I will always be a die hard ipad owner. But I need one to last me longer. Any suggestions. Can iPad give me some support or credit here? Anyone that can help this old lady would be appreciated. I still think this is hands down the best tablet on the market. It would probably beat any lap top and most desk tops in my mind. This is getting bad enough I’m afraid it’s going to quit working. It’s taken care of because only I or my husband or occasionally a family adult might use it, that is rare though. Everybody knows to leave my iPad alone. One last problem. Why do the charging cables not last very long.

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+.

Bought as a gift for the wife – she hasn’t put it down since she received it! Easy to use, bright screen and great quality.

The iPad Pro 12.9” (5th Gen) is an absolute beast! The display is stunning, performance is super fast, and battery life is excellent. I use it daily for work, drawing, and entertainment — easily one of my best tech purchases.

Works great, however the battery on it seems not be the greatest. I’m using it from maybe 4-5 hours a day and by the end of a full charge I’m finding it lower than 8%. Don’t know if anyone else had this issue
