This iPad is used as a backup or to read the news and such. The battery life is just ok, as it probably has a 6 year old + battery. I replaced a first gen iPad with this iPad2, and expect it to last another couple years. Many new apps will still run on it, and it supports iOS 9.3.5. I haven’t tested out the mobile capability but I hear on T-Mobile it would only be 2g.

I purchased the iPad 2 with cracked screen, and it works very well, I purchased a case to hold it and a glass face for it. Works great! I own the mini1,,and have been very happy with it, but am running out of space, so purchase the 64 gig this time. Great , and much easier to carry around than a laptop. Have found no down side whatever except the price of a brand new one!

Bought this for my granddaughter and she simply loves it. I dont know if I could use it as well as she but as soon as she opened up the package she began loading up with all the things she wants. So far its holding up extremely well and the price was fantastic. Only bummer is the shipping. I even payed a little more to get it to her by her birthday. Unfortunately it didnt make it. I know.......I KNOW!!! COVID blamed for everything but I could of taken advantage of the free shipping which might of got it there about the same time as paying the extra shipping cost.

It is easy to move around in and has nice multitasking features so I can do more than one thing at a time without losing what I am working on. I can do research at the same time as keeping what I am studying because of the nice multi-window feature making it easy to go back and forth. It has frozen up on me a couple of times. But once I figured out how to get it to unfreeze it recovers quickly. and goes right back to work.

This is my 7th Kindle and my 4th Kindle Fire. I love them! This latest version has an improvement I love, a "clear all" button. It lets you close all open apps at once. For me, the Kindle 7 is the perfect size to carry. It fits in my hand comfortably and slips into my purse.

I like that it has so much more storage, but I wasn't very happy that the battery seems to use up quickly. But, I guess you get what you pay for! It was affordable for me and I received it when you they said I would and it was well packaged so there was no damage to the iPad itself. Just a short battery life.

Bought it for hubby. Didn't want another IPad 2 since they're having problems downloading updates to the OS starting with 9.0 where as the IPad 3's downloaded it with zero problems. Got an excellent deal on this lightly used unit. Also like that it has Verizon built in as a carrier choice. The newer ones have changed the way you select a carrier..........

Let me begin by saying that I think that the iPad is a fantastic device. I am an early adopter that has Windows, Apple, and Android products and enjoys them individually for what they are. This review is comparing the new iPad 2 to the original iPad release to help you decide if you should upgrade or try to find one of the older units on the “cheap”. The iPad 2 comes in the same memory options as the original – 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB and no external slot is available for memory cards. With all these memory options you can install tons of apps. With the dual-core in effect, you will notice a faster loading of apps, web-pages, and web based apps compared to the original. The original was not “slower”, but in comparison, you can notice a definite speed increase. I believe that web pages and web-based apps are loading faster do to increased wifi capabilities, but I am unable to test this theory. Like the original, iPad 2 is a slick device, meaning both beautiful and slippery. Looking much like the original, except now it's 10% lighter and 33% thinner. What does this mean? This unit actually becomes even more slippery when moving it around in hand. The original's had some weight behind it, good and bad (though only by a few ounces), was enough to keep it in your hands. iPad 2 is like a is beginning for a warranty for the unit because when hands become sweaty playing games or in heat, this thing could go flying out. However, the Smart Cover, is an awesome option to combat this, albeit a minimum $40 option, it is NICE! Using magnets embedded in the iPad 2, the Smart Cover clicks into place to protect the iPad screen, adds hardly any weight or bulk, and turns off the unit very “sexily”. When the Smart Cover is closed, the iPad goes to sleep automatically, and then awakens when the cover is opened. The Smart Cover can also be folded to act as a stand for typing or movie watching. The display is the same, and this is why I feel this isn’t the leap we were expecting. This does not have the Retina Display, and still boast the same specs as the original. I’m not saying that the screen is awful at all, the iPad 2's screen is still as good as the original. The iPad 2's speaker has been moved from the side to the rear. In my opinion, this may be the only negative thing that has changed with the new release. The cameras on this device actually don’t have iPhone 4's 5 MP HDR camera, iPad 2 has a .69 MP (960 x 720) rear-facing camera and a.33 MP (640 x 480) camera in front. Unfortunately, the pictures are not the best, but in defense of the device, you are probably not taking stills with this thing. The pics tend to be grainy lack pizzazz. The cameras are really for are the ability to video chat using either Apple's FaceTime or Skype. But if those upgrades aren't important to you, the original iPad at it's newly reduced price is makes for an excellent choice as well. The iPad 2 includes three major upgrades over the original iPad 1: •iPad 2 is a third thinner and a few ounces lighter than the original. It also has a slightly smaller surface area – the screen is the same 9.7 inches, but the bezel is smaller which makes it nice when you do hold this. •There is now front and back cameras, so you can use Apple's FaceTime video chatting. •Dual core processors (actually two 1 GHz processors on a chip). Other than that, the new iPad is just a slightly smaller, thinner, faster upgrade to the iPad Original. You could call this an iPad 1.4 per say.Read full review
My only real complaint would be that the pictures don’t give the most accurate image of the Falange to the screen. The crack runs into the home button making it slightly lift off the frame but it’s not a real issue.

I bought this for my wife, and she loves it. It does everything that she wants but without the price of an Ipad 3. This is her go to computer for most things, and the few things that she does on her laptop. She takes it everywhere, so the size and weight must be to her likeing, and she does not have to charge it very often. When we looked at a Ipad 3 and the Ipad 2 (used) we compared the features and the price differance, the Ipad 2 won hands down. We also had a problem when the Ipad tried to install an update for the OS and we were ready to send it back, but first we took it to the Apple store and they instaled the latest OS, and then we asked how much we owed our jaws droped. The repair cost $0.00, It was a shock, so now I am waiting for the Ipad 4 to come out.
