Gotta Go With Apple for Durability

Tried cheaper competitors, but you have to go with Apple for the durability. Does what it's supposed and doesn't break when my younger children walk away without unplugging it.

The new Multi-Touch subsystem in the new iPad 9.7" and iPad Pro gives Apple Pencil striking capabilities alongside pixel perfect precision. Using incredibly sensitive pressure and tilt sensors, Apple Pencil instantly recognizes when you are pressing harder or shifting its angle. So you can vary line weight, create subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like with a conventional pencil.

A bit more than a stylus, but needs better support
on July 18, 2016
Posted by: marvelljones

Verified Purchase:Yes
A lot of promise with this item that remains unfulfilled. As a user of many different tablet devices this falls short of being the input tool it promised to be. It's basically an $100.00 bluetooth stylus. It works well when drawing, shading leaves a bit to be desired no matter what app I use. Tapping and navigating works well, just don't expect it to work consistently when browsing the web with Safari. Good for my daughter's purposes, but I'd really say it's only worth 1/2 the normal price.

The 9.7-inch iPad Pro delivers an unprecedented combination of portability and performance. At just 6.1mm thin and weighing less than a pound, iPad Pro features the brightest, most advanced Retina display ever with True Tone, advanced sensors that adjust the display to your environment for even more comfortable viewing. It has a powerful A9X chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, four speaker audio, advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, Touch ID fingerprint sensor, ultrafast Wi-Fi connectivity, and up to 10 hours of battery life. When you add Apple Pencil with its pixel-perfect precision, and the incredibly thin Smart Keyboard, iPad Pro becomes even more versatile.*

Good tablet, doesn't need the "Pro" label

Posted by: marvelljones

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good tablet, purchased for my daughter who likes to draw, so we had to get the "pencil." Overall, it's an Apple product so it "just works" but it really doesn't need a "Pro" label. Other than some slightly better hardware, it's basically just an iPad. I guess my version of "Pro" means it should be leaps and bounds ahead of a "regular" iPad and it's definitely not.

The mortgage, utility bills, groceries, car loans and other predictable costs can seem a bit overwhelming, and that is without considering the less predictable home and car repairs, birthdays and more. Keeping a budget is important, but staying on top of finances can feel time-consuming, confusing and, at times, like a losing battle. Let Quicken for Mac 2016 take on some of the burden of fiscal responsibility by taking the guesswork out of financial management. Easily connect to and manage your bank, credit card, investment and retirement accounts, so you can keep track of where your money is going. Pay your bills right from the software. Quicken your accounting tasks, organize your finances and get back to focusing your attention on what matters most.

Great for my purposes, been using Quicken for years since Microsoft Money was discontinued. Not much competition for them in financial software, only thing I can find that works for me is another product they produce.

Great value for the hardware and software combination. Purchased for my preschool age twins (got the blue one too) so they can beat them up and still have something that works. The software takes a little getting used to, but overall a great product.

Great value for the hardware and a year of the Freetime software/service. Purchased for a preschooler, so I wanted something she could beat up and still work. Software takes a little bit of getting used to, but offers a great experience, especially if you're an Amazon Prime Member.

There's nothing quite like the action-packed fun of the Super Smash Bros. franchise that lets you bash, battle and brawl your way through foes.

If only you could bring the GameCube's familiar control style to your favorite Wii U games. Return to an era of classic gaming fun with this controller.Take charge of your games with this Super Smash Bros. Edition GameCube Controller, which allows you to enjoy a host of Wii U games with GameCube-style controls. Show off your love of the Super Smash Bros. franchise with the unique themed design.

Installed in an iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011), replacement for the original (now dead) hard drive. Recognized, formatted and installed El Capitan very smoothly. The only issues were Apple related (limited SSD support in older iMacs, cooling fans going full blast after the install) but a quick web search tells you how to fix them. Much faster than the original drive, and a higher end SSD would have offered negligible benefits due to a lack of hardware support in my machine. Great SSD for the price if you're replacing an older drive in older hardware, or if you've never had an SSD before.

The discs from this Verbatim CD-R 10-pack come in a variety of hues and have a vintage vinyl look, setting them apart from the rest. These discs have an 80 minute or 700MB capacity and are compatible with CD drives at up to 52x speeds. This Verbatim CD-R 10-pack combines nostalgia and modern functionality.

Write speed is as advertised on the box, when many others fall short. The vinyl design is interesting when playing in a "see through the top" player.

I have no cable. Can I use rabbit ears to receive over the air broadcasts ?
Yes, but I'd recommend an outside mounted antenna if you run into problems. I pick up some HD local channels without an antenna, but it will vary by how close you live to their transmitters.

Can I install this on my mac and my I pad`
Not exactly. There is a "free" Quicken app for iPad on the App Store that will enable you to access your Quicken info. If you're backing up to the cloud that is.

Would this tablet be good for a three year old?
Definitely. Just be prepared to spend a little time learning to operate the "adult" side of the tablet, and get yourself a 32 GB micro-SDHC so you don't run out of memory. Also so the apps/videos/books load quicker since they'll be downloaded to the card.

When using the single-sheet paper feeder where does the paper exit the printer?
Above the paper tray in the front. Just like it does if you use the full paper tray.
