A beautiful tablet
Extremely fast processor, gorgeous screen. I transitioned from an Air 2 so its operation is generally familiar, but much quicker. I'm getting used to pressing two buttons to turn it off and using Touch ID on the power button, but those are minor issues.
I have an active pencil (a knock-off, I won't pay Apple's price for their pencil) on order. I don't draw, but am anxious to see if handwriting-to-text works well enough to be of value.
This is not the cheapest tablet out there by a long shot, but it just works, and does what you want a tablet to do. I have a stack of Android and Windows tablets that don't cut it. If I put all that wasted money into an iPad years ago, it would have cost less in the long run. As referenced above, this is my second one and I don't regret either purchase one bit.
