Our take

The most impressive hardware Apple makes: a tandem OLED screen with deep blacks in a body barely thicker than a pencil.

We judge iPads on what people actually do with them — reading, notes, drawing, video — and on how well the accessories work, because an iPad is rarely used alone.

Pros

  • Stunning tandem OLED display
  • Incredibly thin and light
  • Landscape front camera

Cons

  • Software still limits it
  • Expensive with accessories
