Our take on the Apple iPad 9.7in 6th Generation WiFi + Cellular (32GB, Space Gray)

The iPad 6th Generation is Apple's 2018 9.7-inch tablet, sold here in a Wi-Fi + Cellular configuration with 32GB of storage. It pairs the A10 Fusion chip with a 2048 x 1536 Retina display, Touch ID, and support for the first-generation Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard. It suits students, note-takers and casual media users who want a cheap entry into iPadOS. Against the iPad 5th Generation it adds the faster A10 chip and Pencil support; against the iPad Air and Pro lines it has an older chip, a non-laminated screen and a slower Lightning-based Pencil. Owners call it dependable and good value, but many find 32GB tight and the design dated.

Questions and answers

Is the iPad 6th Generation still worth buying?
For basic browsing, video, reading and Pencil notes, yes. If you need speed for games, editing or many apps at once, a newer iPad is a better fit.
Does it work with the Apple Pencil?
Yes, it supports the first-generation Apple Pencil, which charges and pairs through the Lightning port. The second-generation Pencil does not work with it.
Can I use any carrier with the cellular model?
The cellular model is unlocked, so you can use a SIM from the carrier of your choice. Check that the carrier supports the iPad's bands.
Is 32GB enough?
It is tight. Apps, photos and downloaded video fill it quickly, so plan on cloud storage or streaming rather than storing a large media library.
How does it compare with the iPad 5th Generation?
It uses the faster A10 Fusion chip instead of the A9 and adds Apple Pencil support. The screen size and overall design are the same.
What is in the box?
The iPad, a Lightning cable and a power adapter. The Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard are sold separately.
