'I'd be lost without my iPad'

Amazon shoppers have been vocal about their love for the Apple iPad, as it's received a 4.8-star average rating from nearly 2,000 customer reviews. Reviewers have raved that they "last forever" and are "very easy to use," making it a must-have for any household.

'Battery life is amazing'

One of the main reasons why shoppers love the ease of the iPad is that it's "easy to transfer data from my old iPad," including photos, apps, games and more.

The battery life is another big draw, which shoppers have called "amazing."

In spite of all the rave reviews, some shoppers noted that they were "disappointed" with the sound quality of this iPad's speakers. One person reported having "a hard time hearing" during a FaceTime call, while another said that the "sound is a little tinny."

If sound quality is high on your list of priorities, users recommend using a pair of headphones instead of the built-in speakers: "With headphones, oddly enough, everything seems fine," one person shared.

Verdict

According to Amazon shoppers, this iPad offers "great value" — especially when you can score it on sale. Since it's unknown how long this sale will last, it's an even better reason to add one to cart right now. You may just want to consider keeping a pair of headphones on hand in order to get the best sound quality.
