The pricing structure from apple is pure genius. The basic iPad with nothing is cheap, but the minute you want something extra like a pencil or storage, it’s so high, the model next up seems tempting and a good buy, until you don’t like the base storage and you end up justifying the apple iPad Pro and paying triple what you intended.

This guy always finds a reason to buy every apple product

It’s my first iPad and I love it. It’s never laggy and I can do pretty much a lot of the things I need. I don’t need a laptop replacement since I already have one myself, so I really had no reason to buy the more expensive models. And the mini is too small for me, I like a bigger screen.

My wife and I were sharing her ipad pro for a couple years, I decided to get the ipad 9th gen and man I love it. I just use it for streaming, skype/messenger/facetime and browsing and it fulfills my needs. I never notice any slowdown and battery life is heaven. My kids are still using an ipad 1st gen and it keeps ticking. I expect this one to last a long long time.

I was watching your vids when debating to get the ipad 9th gen (64gb was in stock everywhere for pickup) and then you released this video and I tried buying one the next day and they were all sold out EVERYWHERE because classes are starting up again. I was finally able to get one shipped from target but as far as picking up or buying online from other places were all sold out from one day to the next. A lot of people in San Antonio watch your channel that’s for sure 🙌🙌!

I do love the 9th gen, though I personally decided to go with the mini 6, just generally due to the fact I prefer the smaller form factor + build quality, for me I found it worth it spending the $150-$250 extra.

I recently bought the 64GB Model of the IPad 9, and it's honestly the best purchase I made. There are a number of features that really help me with my online classes.

I just got the mini for flight school and I'm already loving the Luma fusion upgrades, like stabilization and editing and exporting directly from a drive

I absolutely love my iPad 9th gen! It has just the right amount of everything

Thanks for a great review, I am new to iPad and happened to buy the Gen9 after some research.

Bought one and very good big foamy case for it. And my kids mainly use it a-lot and love it.The whole family uses it and is very fast and snappy very good price!!

Just bought one. Using it with universal control, hooked up to my M1 MacBook Air. Great little set up.

A couple of weeks ago i decided to upgrade from my Ipad Air 2 (this old thing is still getting software updates). So i did some research & was leaning towards this one “budget ipad” but watching your video is what did it, so i went & ordered one from Best Buy

I just got the 9th gen ipad with 64 gb to replace my broken 7th gen ipad I had. and so I am satisfied with it so far really fast and very responsive and am also loving the true tone feature too. The 9th gen Definitely is worth buying. And am also watching this vid on the iPad too.

I do think this, together with the M1 MacBook Air, is the best overall product Apple makes. I just replaced my Mini 5 with an iPad Pro I got for personal use as a benefit from my company, but if not, I’d really consider this - and if I would consider the 9 (even though I’d probably have waited for an updated Air), then it’s a stellar device for somebody like my dad, as you mentioned, as this is such a well rounded package.

Great episode! I really like the iPad 9 but to be honest my iPad 7 (128Gig) still works great and I even get many, many hours out of the battery!

I bought this as a replacement for my 6 year old 9.7“ ipad pro. The 1st gen pencil works great and it has the good old indestructible lightning charger. I don‘t need lidar or the camera, only using earphones for music. Unbeatable bang for buck.

Just upgraded from an iPad 6 and I’m definitely satisfied, I kind of like the bezels since I do some mobile gaming, having big hands it’s nice to have somewhere to rest my fingers. The upgraded chip is definitely nicer for running a games like cod mobile. The price is also great ! I don’t need the fancy camera since I have a 13pro max for that. If I could have one thing, USB C would be nice but other than that it’s perfect for me.

My mum went from iPad (first gen) to a gen 9 so that’s a really big improvement

I did. My 1918 model had a failing battery and I do not replace batteries on five year old equipment. I got it for $229 off Amazon, yesterday. I got a new leather cover and screen cover, plus the IPad , for $278 and change. I might have saved a few more bucks waiting until Black Friday but I needed it, because I was tired of plugging in my old IPad every hour or so.

More than likely going to stay with my iPad Gen 8 for a bit as only use it for the most part for watching KZfaq TV, KZfaq clips, Flipboard, SmartNews, Dark Sky, and LL Rulebooks for the most part. I also love the TouchID spot on the iPad, and my iPhone SE. Wish they would bring it back on all iPhones with a small as they can make it forehead across the top. and USB4 host mode all options on port. Can only dream.

I was gonna get the iPad 9, but I ended up grabbing the 2020 iPad Pro. Would’ve gotten the M1 2021, but i wanted one now and I was able to get the 2020 for $600. Figured I’d wait till a new one gets announced this year. However, This thing handles my work flow flawlessly. I can’t imagine an upgrade being worth it for me within the next 2 years.

I'm still rocking my iPad 7th Gen and to be honest I only (rarely) use it to watch KZfaq and sketch with an Apple Pencil, but with the recent update of Universal Control it will be added to my work setup as it now provides so much value.

Theres no way!!! I was just thinking about getting one and I wasn't sure if i should. This video is absolute perfect timing.

Yesterday, I found this ipad 64g silver on SALE on Amazon for 309, based on your recommendation. I also bought a compatible keyboard. The total was $400.00. Also I'm searching for an iphone 13 mini to complete my eco-system.

Just got mines, TY!!!! Throwback vibez; made me pull out my old ipod mini gen 3 just to have some beats before we jump in the Delorean and head back to the future... 🤣😂

I can’t tell you guys enough how good and convenient the touch id is on the ipad 9. It is super convenient as compared to the lock button touch id and face id. Secure and fast. Get the ipad 9 guys.

I still have an iPad 4th generation so this would be a massive upgrade! Great video! 🎉

Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day!

Love that shirt man! Office fans would be proud!

Great review. I was considering buying one, you just helped me make up my mind. Will purchase it tomorrow.

Great video. Just got this iPad last month and a little over a week ago got the Apple Smart keyboard folio to go with it. Such great products to compliment my iPhone 13 Pro Max.

iPad 9 is absolutely one of the best deals in tech right now. It’s very capable and I’d recommend it to anyone. However, even though my institution gave me one to use which I have around it just isn’t for me, I use a 12.9” M1 iPad Pro + Magic Keyboard which allows me to leave my laptop at home because of better screen real estate, comparative typing experience, and memory storage. I’d say buy the iPad 9 or iPad Air unless you absolutely know that you would get more use out of the pro as is my situation.

That’s an awesome shirt, I’m going to have to order one. And the 3.5mm jack is the main reason I got the standard version.

I'm actually getting this instead of the latest models...for price to value proposition! Thank you!

Now I’m lovin’ my iPad 9th gen coz not only it has 3.5 jack and guess what the lightning jack earphone works too, not to mention the Bluetooth connectivity’s for wireless buds, you got all the options.

I was gifted one of these and after using it for a couple of weeks, I'm blown away by how good it is at the things tablets are good for. It's not replacing my desktop computer by any means, but it's far better than the old laptop I had been using when I needed something portable and I guarantee that cost more than the $270 these are selling for currently.

Headphone jack: get Beats Fit Pro to go with your AirPods and you'll always have a headset charged and ready to go. You'll have one headset for the gym and another for the office.

this happened to be the first video i watched in lunar new year in vietnam time !!! Happy lunar new year

I had the iPad 8 and traded it in for a new Mini. I have a MacBook Air and find the iPad too heavy and bulky to distinguish it from the MacBook. I found me not using it a lot. I use the Mini a lot more.

Got one for my birthday, have been loving it :)

lots of positive vibe... I Like your review, thank u

Just bought this iPad, went with this one cuz my phone needs a break from all the editing and games I pay 🤣 so far I’m loving it!

I love the subtle office shirt you’re wearing lmao

Loved everything about your video just by watching 30 seconds and subscribed

Hidden gem! Assistant “to the” Regional Manager. Nice!

I think buying this ipad is a good idea, i am going to buy this myself, only after using my old ipad 2 for almost 12 years and the only reason i am upgrading is coz i cracked the screen to am extent it's not replaceable even though it works almost perfectly as well as having great battery battery life. So i have good trust in Apple ipads for the long term.

I wanted to buy iPad 9th generation but then heard of a possible iPad Air 5 with center stage upcoming spring. Waiting couple of months more won't be that big of a deal. Still, iPad 9th gen is the best deal in tech right now.

Gotta love those 'Lifetime' folding banquet tables. 😊

My very first apple product so far so good ❤️

I was thinking about this yesterday lol I’m probably going to for some digital art and reading books, as well as for content consumption purposes lol

I love it , I ordered shopping amazon Iam dreaming of getting this ipad since watching this video

I want a iPad 9 for Christmas because It's the last one with a home button thanks for all the reasons in this video

8:34 Gary, did you wedge a pencil between your case and the iPad? I do that too! It helps to prop up the iPad for a better angle, especially for video calls when I have it on a desk.

I have had every model of iPad since they first came out, I have upgraded every time a new model was released. I’ve been computer free since I got onto iPad. Recently I had the 2020 12.9” iPad Pro wi-fi cellular 512 GB and I watched all the videos about the 2021 model with the M1 chip, so I upgraded to the 2021 12.9 “ wi-fi cellular iPad Pro 1 TB after hearing how great it was going to be. I have never been more disappointed, the screen resolution wasn’t that much better and the speed was not noticeably faster, I bought the magic keyboard with it so I spent over $2000, and what I’ve finally had to come to terms with is that iPad is never going to give me a true pro experience as long as the apps created are still geared toward the basic iPad user. I’m a professional so I expect pro features, I got this version because I wanted to start filming, editing and uploading KZfaq videos. But that’s still just not going to happen. Apple wants me to have a MacBook in order to use pro apps and I don’t want a MacBook. I like the iPad experience, it’s so much more user friendly, but it is lacking on the app side, even the built in apps are lacking. I keep believing that Apple is going to come out with a version of iOS that really takes the pro models to the next level and I am deeply disappointed and ready to just say goodbye to Apple and get a tablet that actually does have pro features. I feel as though I have been deceived by the reviewers and by Apple and think it is a disservice to the consumer to add the word pro to the device when it is just not a pro device. It’s a waste of space and a waste of the M1 chip when the iPad itself is never going to be advanced enough for the M1 chip to be worthwhile. It’s like putting a V8 engine in an old Volkswagen and driving in a 35 mile an hour lane. You have all this power but Apple is not going to let you see what it can really do. I wouldn’t have even bought the magic keyboard had everyone been honest about the fact that it doesn’t have a row of function keys and although it looks like you have now created a MacBook, you are still just an iPad user, and Apple doesn’t take iPad users seriously. I can see how the company made 1.8 billion dollars in profit last year, it’s by getting people to buy so many devices and not really spending anything on improving the user experience. I might as well have the most basic iPad because that is who the iPad market is focused on. Stop calling things pro if they are not for professionals it’s very deceiving and just a gimmick to get you to waste your money on something that doesn’t live up to the Apple brand experience. I’m supposed to have the best product in the market and it’s not. Not until they create a ipadPro iOS App Store that focuses on giving pro users the apps they deserve. I’m tired of downloading app after app only to find out they have in app purchases , monthly fees, ads and you need to get 5 apps to do a project. The whole market is basically game based and I’m not a gamer, I’m an artist and I writer and want feature rich apps that a pro could be excited about. Just having the age 4+ category on the apps shows how ridiculous the apps are, and when you finally get a good one they stop updating it and it becomes unsupported, it’s just so frustrating that I could cry.

Finally! I've been waiting for this video

Hey EveryDay Dad. Man I really wish you would do a surface vs ipad video! Having a hard time choosing between the two. I have everything Apple with computer and phone but thinking about getting an Ipad, or should I consolidate everything into a surface that I can use anywhere and everywhere. Why have multiple devices over just having the all in one surface?

In the UK it's £319. Don't know why, but made me want to have it back in October.

I'm a student and photographer. I have a MacBook Pro, iPhone 13 pro and a 2014 Mac Mini and I just ordered the iPad 9 (it should be called, "classic"). It seems like a bit of overkill to add a tablet to my set up, but I got it because a lot of my textbooks have moved online. Sometimes I wanna mark up on it or sit on a chair and read my textbook for a bit, away from a desk. OR when I'm at school away from my second display, and would like my textbook open AS I write my notes in my MacBook Pro. Would I loved a iPad air? YES, but 1. Money and two, I have already a MacBook Pro that's very capable. IF I got the Air, I think it would have been overkill for just mark up, web browsing and streaming. I believe the iPad 9 is a FANTASTIC buy, it'll do tablet stuff for someone who wants just a tablet or as a companion to a set up. Also I just retired my iPad Mini 2 in 2020, so longevity is definitely a plus with iPads, I had a Nexus WAY BACK THEN, and that thing "lasted" only a year and a half.

Love your shirt man! I'm The Office fan too!

I bought the iPad 6 in 2018 and I'm basically just waiting for a redesign before I upgrade. I know the year after it was "kinda" redesigned with a bigger screen but that was it. I want better speakers and some other upgrades so I'm going to wait for either an all screen design, or at least the iPad Air 3 design

iPad 9 great device for college especially with its accessories

I bought one. My previous one was color white (6th gen) and I miss that color lol I don't like that it's just has a black frame.. Wish it had white (for aesthetic purposes lol)

This guy is teaching us to be practical!!! Yeah men, I'm impressed, i will buy this. 😅

I have the iPad 9 myself and I like it a lot works good for me😁👍🏻

I bought myself an iPad Air 5 256 gb and got my very young daughter an iPad 9th gen 64gb. It’s perfect for her.

Just brought the 9th generation iPad, now what accessories should I buy for this? Need a pencil and am guessing it’s the first generation! Do you have a video on what to buy plus I would like to purchase the procreate will this work on this plus what external hard drive to buy, thanks jake

So much enjoy with iPad 9 Gen ... Good for those who find budget device.

I ordered it. I can wait to have it on my hands 🙌

I have one of these, it’s really nice.

I've bought and sent to Vietnam more than 20 iPads. They're sold out in Vietnam due to online classes because of the pandemic.

Good video but if the gen 9 could support the gen 2 pencil i would have bought it. Don't want an old clumsy gen 1 pencil so use. Have hade both the 12.9 m1 and also the 11 m1 and returned them both just beacuse it's still just an iPad. My needs are a good front facing camera, support gen 2 pencil and good battery and a magic keyboard is a plus but not a must.

I’m watching this on a 9th gen cellular iPad, on a beta software iOS 16.2 it’s a pretty good iPad I’d rather have a pro or air 5th gen but it’s really not bad

I'm watching this video with iPad gen 9. A great deal, the battery is awesome. A practical choice to save money.

6:57 Me: lmfao that’s my iPad I’ve been using it for 8 years 😂 (I think it’s time for an update)

I. And across a problem which occur on 2 iPad 9th Generation: The volume in phone calls (FaceTime or VoIP app) has to be on 100% in order to hear something. When watching videos, if the sound is good if volume is less than 50%.

Make a video on " can you use iPad 9 as your only computer video editing device " please

It is nice piece of tech for cheap. I opted for Air becouse of laminated display and apple pencil 2 support. Give me at least that apple pencil support, and I can live with basic iPad.. Laminated display is fine, but I can miss it at that big price difference

the glass at the edge chips away but nothing too much, don't really notice it unless I'm looking for it

I bought the IPad last year in September and it generally works fine for me. I bought it so I could use it every day in school (8h per day), but I kind of regret that I didn’t buy the iPad Air, because sometimes if I want to write something very fast or I want to correct a word very quick and precisely, the pencil isn’t always hitting the exact spot (so my font looks bad) because of the non-laminated display. So I think if you’re really on a budget and you don’t want to spend too much, you should go with the iPad 9. But if u want to use the iPad like me every day in school, you have the money for the iPad Air and you want to use your iPad the next few years I would go with the iPad Air. The Apple Pencil 2nd generation also feels better and you have some other advantages with the iPad Air as well.

What’s the best/lightest keyboard case for 9th gen iPad?…any suggestions?

Thank you for letting me know

I bought this iPad just to play June’s Journey. Great game

I have the 8th gen iPad and I love it. It still works great for me so I'm going to be keeping it and not get the new one this year.

Great video thanks 😃

I’m excited for upcoming 2022 ipad model.

I don't see much of a gap between my iPhone and MBA M1 that the iPad could fill. Maybe reading books. Or is it supposed to be instead of the Air?

Am getting this February 28 on my brith day I cannot wait XD

i watched many videos this week about ipad , its crazy how different the reviews are for gen 8 and gen 9. The value u are getting from ipad 9 made me to switch from android tablets for the 1st time. I dont know why but the android tablets become so slow and with lags after 2 years , and at this point the xiaomi tab 5 have the same price with the ipad 9 , and the s7+ is more expensive by 20% for 15% less or same performance. I have the ipad9 for 2-3 days now and change m every day life. The multitasking and office jobs are so smooth like u have a laptop with u. i wish apple release some iphones and mac's with the same value in the future . Especially with phones is hard to most ppl to spend 1000$ for a phone that will u change in a year or 2 cause lets be honest u have a phone with u 24x7 its not the lack of updates that make u to change phone but the physical dmg u cause to it over time. So in m case i prefer to spend 1000$ in 4-6 years for 4 different midrange phones.

I love ipad so much. Even so, i found a hiccup on my work as I can't complete my lab report on Microsoft Word.a It appears when I want to insert complicated scientific equation as the scientific icons are so limited unlike in PC's or Laptop's Word. The thing I really love is experience during taking notes. I've tried a bundle of apps, free and subscription based to take note. Apple note is good but not compatible with my tasks as university students. So, i just used it to jote simple notes

I also use iPad Air and it works really good

choose ipad 9th or ipad pro 10.5 2017? which one is better?

It is out of stock in all online shopping websites 😑... Please some one help me when it will available

Do you have a link to the keyboard case you are using in the video? Thanks.

Hello is there going to be a 2022 iPad Pro coming out this year? I love my pro now it’s almost 2 years old and I want the bigger screen. What do you think?

iPad 9 is basically "welcome to apple ecosystem, we'll love to have you here"

you talked about apple beta software, i installed the developer iPadOS 15 beta and it was awfully unstable and i just downloaded the iPadOS 15.4 public beta en it has been stable pretty much

I UPGRADED to the 9th Generation from the A1701 five years ago.

Buying this brand new is nonsense but i found one used for just 170€ and i would buy this again! Love it

I’m getting the iPad 9th Gen in a few weeks
