[Electronics-Talk] selecting an ipad

[Ashley Bramlett]

Thanks. Can I use siri on it and does skype work okay with voice over?
Will I get itunes on it automatically?

Glad to know I can use downloaded music
without a network connection.

Hi Ashley,
Think of the iPad as a large iPhone with some extra features. The iPad Pro 
10.5 inch model is the one I would recommend. I have it and love its 
interface. It's very powerful, and allows you to view two apps at once, 
which is great for productivity. No matter which one you choose, they are 
all accessible. I would get the 10.5 inch iPad Pro with at least 64 GB of 
memory, if not more. You will be able to listen to anything you have 
downloaded without a network connection, just like an iPhone.
Feel free to ask any other questions you might have.
