I'm a 9.7 pro user.

Looking at this poll, apple's gonna have a rough 2 or so years with iPad because current Pro users aren't going to be much inclined to upgrade, especially with the weak updates projected for this year.
 
I have the Mini 4 which my fiancée gave me for Christmas last year. For at least the next year or so, I have no plans to upgrade.

Had an air 2.

no longer functional.

now it's like there's too many choices. ipad or mba? ipad or ipad pro? cheap ipad or something better?

I think apple is simply confusing the matter.

What happened to your Air 2? Software issues?

I admire your daughters strength :p. It's nice to see a fellow Air 2 user.

I love my Air 2! I really don't experience any appreciable lag under iOS 10... Still a great device 2 years later!
 
iPad mini 2012 32 GB IOS 6: email accounts, Notability App, 32-bit apps that will become obsolete on newer devices, some iPhotos albums, all my music, viewing certain Amazon videos that will not play on mini 4 or play with commercials on mini 4, infrequent camera usage, infrequent syncs with MacBook Pro 10.6.8, a backup if mini 4 crashes.

iPad mini 4 128 GB IOS 10.2.1: All my photos albums, all my iBooks and audio books, all my music,,webcam viewing, web surfing, a backup if mini 2012 crashes. Syncs to 2015 AIR 13 Sierra. No plans up upgrade, hope this one lasts.

The Mini size is just right for the couch or bed.It is too big for easy camera usage.
 
I have an Air 1, waiting for a 9.7 or 10.5 with innards to match the 12.9(aka 4 Gigs of RAM) - Fool me once...
 
I have a Mini 2 for now. I plan to soon replace it with a Mini 4, and then set this Mini 2 up for my dad. Even though Apple would probably prefer me to buy a full size iPad, I just love the size and portability of the Mini, and I want to get the 4 now, in case they don't make another Mini in the future.
 
The mini 4 is what I've got, and I love it. The 2 gigs of ram really makes a difference when you've got 6 tabs open in Safari as well as messages and other stuff running in the background. The A8 chip is still plenty fast too.

my fiancee has an air 2 but recently got a 9.7 pro with pencil.

my fiancee uses her pro almost 24/7.
my ipad 3 see use 2 to 3 times a week for hour or so in bed.

use my imac or phone for everything really
 
Apparently, I've got the wrong one ...mine's showing that the poll's total percentage is greater than 126%! How's that work?

So you can avoid the same mistake I made... as mine apparently can't do simple addition, I'm using the 12.9" iPP. For all other apps and applications I need it for, it's amazing

Some reason, simple addition kicks it's a.....

PS: why is the poll in excess of 126%?
Just wondering
 
My wife has an Air and I have the Mini 2. I use the mini 2 for email, web browsing, texting and reading books. It lags a little but I won't upgrade until it dies or becomes so slow that I give up on it. Eventually, I'd like to get a 12.9" pro but at this point I don't think the photo editing software is quite there yet. If Lightroom were to make a compatible version with the pro I might make the jump sooner.

I have no idea why the poll is like this, possible because certain people are voting for multiple things?
 
I have the Air 2. I use it for web browsing, games & watching video. I also use is an ebook reader for books with illustrations or photos. (For other books, I prefer the Kindle.). Vibration in the Air 2 are sill annoying - never have gotten used to it.

I'll probably upgrade to the Pro when a new model is released.

You and me both :)
 
IPad 3, 64gb, Wifi, cell. Will hold out for the 10.5, 256gb Wifi, cell.

If it doesn't come out until the fall so be it I'll struggle along with what I have but it is frustrating at times due to its lagging and slowness. Hang on if it happens in the fall we should be getting it any day now 'cause it's fall now in Oz. :D:D:D
