I still LOVE my ipad9th generation that I bought new in 2021. I draw (professionally) on it all the time. You don"t really need anything else. Perfect size at 10.2 " screen.
I have a 6th gen. I use it for music production, and it’s fine. I smashed it last week by accident, and found out it was 149 to repair. Soooo thanks to Best Buy having a 9th gen iPad for 199, I get to upgrade for 199 instead of a 149 repair. Victory!
People do these videos like it’s crazy or something. It’s only 3 years old, it’s only one year older than the 10th generation one. I know it has the older design so I guess people keep thinking that this iPad is really old or something, but it’s still kind of modern and it’s getting all the new updates.
Thank you, for this excellent quick overview of Apple's basic iPad 9th generation. My current iPad, is the basic iPad 9th generation model with 256GB and the cell data option. If this is someone's very first iPad (after Apple's major price reduction), I no longer recommend this version but, instead suggest new buyers pick-up the basic iPad 10th generation model. However, if this is not your first (for myself this was my third iPad) basic iPad then you maybe like myself. I prefer the basic iPad 9th generation because, of its older classic style and design, still has a home button, still has a wired headphone jack, works with my already owned Lighting adapters (for a digital camera, SD card reader, etc.) and my Apple 1st generation pencil, and it supports Apple's "Center Stage" function. In addition, the iPad 9th generation also supports both a physical SIM card or an electronic SIM card (smile ... smile).
I just bought one! Handing my old iPad Air 2--still a very good iPad though years old--to my wife, who doesn't need the higher performance but something good for reading and basic functions.
had mine since may of this year, honestly the perfect school and travel buddy! it does everything i need it for and i honestly wouldn't want to spend more money just for the usb-c, i can live with bringing two cables around all the time 😂😂 (i have the iphone 15 now, but back when i got my ipad i was still using my iphone 11)
im using it right now and it’s the best ipad i have ever seen i know the other ipads such as the pro ones are good and everything but still the ninth gen is way better its fast the charging is fast it has good screen light and the best of all it won’t cost you alot it’s like the best device ever! i recommend you getting it!
It is so much easier to hold compared with the new Air and 10th Gen. I just ordered because I miss having my streaming tv apps in my bed. I sold my iPad 8th gen and I regret it.
What’s the latest iOS update on it? Because I had a really old I pad don’t remember what kind but it wouldn’t let me download certain apps because it wasn’t updated to the latest iOS update
its the perfect ipad, for me the other models despite being powerful they're limited by the ipad os. i'm thinking about buying one, sadly prices are so high atm in eu benelux region (only 50 euros difference from the 10th)
My first iPad ever was the iPad Mini 2 I was so young back then 😃 Then I had the iPad 6th Generation but it got stuck on the apple logo 😞 The i downgraded to the iPad 5th Generation there was no other iPads on stock 😤 Then I got my newest iPad which is the iPad 9th Generation I’m so happy with it 😀
Apple won't say when the updates will officially end for the device, but they are good with software updates. So it will probably still get updates in 2026
Never update to 17 trust me your battery will drain quickly, ipadOs17 is trash (if we talk about battery issues) , I still have the OS16(last version) , I remember to update to 17 a long time ago and that was horrible but luckily the last version of ipad OS16 was still signed by Apple and without thinking twice I made a downgrade. No lag, battery is beautiful.
Heads up for everybody. it’s on sale on Amazon new for $199 only (08/18/24). Not sure for how long. I ordered one for my kid and it’s quite a steal!
Literally just bought it this second and came to YT for reviews lol
New? I thought they were refurbished?
Yeah bro I got it for the same price it's a limited time price and it's worth it
August 29 just ordered it for 200
Quite the deal for sure
it’s still on sale.
probably gonna be at the price occasionally

Bought it yesterday, just needed an upgrade from my 9.7inch iPad pro (from 2016) that decided to die after 8 years. So far it's pretty nice!
Damn that iPad pro lasted a long time

Also has some features that the new ones don't have like a headphone jack

@@mbmclasher8813my iPad 5th generation is tweaking
For the people who are asking, yes, I just updated my Ipad 9th gen and 8th gen both to IOS18.0.1
Should i buy 10th gen or 9th gen? It isnt much different in price for 64gb variant.
@@minimaster96 If you have the budget, always go for the newer one. In this case, the 10th gen. It has better hardware compared to the 9th gen.
I have the iPad 9 in I love it
Good review! Just got my Ipad 9th Gen yesterday for free from a Credit Card Sign Up Rewards Programme👍🏻😀

my first ipad ever
I'm planning on buying one
I want one and think this would be a good starter iPad for me.
I needed your opinion!
Hello, I want an answer to a question: Will the ninth generation iPad have iOS18 or not?
Yes the 9th gen will get ipados 18
Thank you, brother
Most likely it'll also have iPadOS20 so no worries
I have one I love it 😊
Great video thanks for sharing that information

Bought my 256GB iPad 9 from Fred Meyers for $300 new. Love it so far also having the Apple smart filio keyboaerd for it is amazing love it
I plan to buy that iPad as drawing tablet , does os still support?
Yes the 9th gen still gets support from apple
@@ImportantTech ok thanks for your time!
Same here i plan to do pro create and creating vector files
What’s the latest iOS update on it? Because I had a really old I pad don’t remember what kind but it wouldn’t let me download certain apps because it wasn’t updated to the latest iOS update
18
i imagine the updates lasting up to ipados 20 cuz that’s around 5 years of support and it’s common to apple devices last around 5 years
Because it has a headphone jack, I’m hesitant to upgrading later… (I do GarageBand)
I want to buy ipad 9 generation

Don’t forget that it does have a magnet for your apple pen but it doesn’t seem that strong so be wary of that
Is it worth buy an iPad this year?
It depends on the model but the one I talked about in the video is still a great one. Even in 2024.
I still have an iPad 6th Gen and iOS 17 is the last update to be available on my device
You can get iPadOS 18

How about the updates? How many years will still be updated?
Sadly Apple doesn't give an exact year, but because it is still using a good chip it will probably still get updates for a while.
How about 2025/2026? Is ipad 9 still good? @@ImportantTech
My current iPad is exactly 10 years old, it's just started getting a bit glitchy and the battery is noticeably tired but up to now it's been faultless
Where did everyone get it for $199😭😭😭😭
amazon is available now
How about the IOS support
Apple never says exactly how long their products get updates but I think it will keep getting updates for the next few years
Battery is best in this bad boy
Yo, and here me out here, what *if*
we just don't put a shot camera on it one time 😀💁♂️
How does Wi-Fi work
It just works. Had no issues with it
