It would be great if you showed the difference between the two tablets like the cellular SMS app vs Wifi. Showing you playing a game does not show the difference between the two versions, whether or not someone chooses to use the cellular option vs not having the option Wifi. And their choice then to pay the extra and only have one device vs two devices for $150 seems worth it.

Informative video!

Additional use case:
If you plan to use maps for navigation on an iPad mini for example, the device will need to accurately determine your real-time location constantly. To do this you will need an integrated GPS chip. Tethering to your cell device for this purpose introduces significant latency at best, but mostly inaccurate pinpointing of your location while in motion. punching the triangle to update location while driving is a hazard to say the least. I tried this…… for about 5 seconds. Doesn’t work. So if you plan on mounting an iPad for navigation purposes you must get the cellular model as they have gps chips. As long as the device has a gps chip you could forgo purchasing a cellular plan, use wifi to download maps covering thousands of square miles to your iPad(a feature on google maps) then use the same iPad to navigate regardless of if you have a cellular plan. While navigating you would need to have wifi on but not connected to a network. I did this with a US iPhone traveling all over southeast asia. Worked beautifully with no cell coverage.

For my job as a photographer I use the normal one for capture one and I just tether it to my iPhone 14. No issues. And here is another thing, I can increase/reduce my data plan with my existing smartphone plan on a month to month basis for a much better deal than what I would get in return for a Apple monthly payment plan, like a mug. It works out cheaper for me.

Um okay …. If you around free Wi-Fi all day, you don’t need it.

If you work, primarily outside or on the go, and use your iPad for productive means and don’t wish to kill your phone battery, get the cell version.

I got the cell version but never bought a plan because I have unlimited hot spot

[venky]

Have been using iPads with Wi-Fi only for years but now am considering the cellular model.

[GregBrecker]

Using the tether option drastically increases the battery drain from use on your iPhone, plus it’s not as reliable.

Just ordered the cellular version. The Wi-Fi at school is awful (when it works). Don't like to connect to public networks at shopping centres, airports, cafés or restaurants. It was only €60 more.

I love my cellular iPad I love using the hotspot and it gets better service than my phone and when my electric goes off my cellular iPad is the only way I have internet connection and I got mine through my carrier my iPad 10 for $195 the cellular model all I have to do is keep service on

If you want the GPS chip, it is only available with the cell iPad.

[rogervaldez]

Games that require GPS such as pokemon go run terribly on the models without Cellular because lack of GPS that's a game breaker for me I have zero use for cellular besides what I just mentioned and trying to play pokemon go on my 2021 ipad pro with what seemed like 20 fps drove me nuts. Which is why I'll always buy the cellular model going forward.

Let’s say I am using a iPad cellular from 2017 and I am buying it from bobshop and the IPads price is R2000 Will I still have to pay a monthly fee

[sunshinejenny]

On the New Pro it is $300 more. If you live in a rural area with no wi-fi ....

[dropdeadfred]

Video is great. Almost wasted extra on disappointment 😂

[karlashorts]

Definitely gonna buy an Wi-Fi only iPad. I can just hotspot my phone

[wickedinfamous]

The only reason you would wanna buy the cellular one is when you don’t plan to use any other cellular device for example, a phone or iphone. I mean, imagine you wanna opt this one as your primary phone too.

I got the WiFi + Cell iPad 12.9 m2 6th gen . Loving it so far
❤😊❤ free wifi sucks . It’s always slow and bogged down
By everybody and they mamaz trying to use it at the same time. Plus I live in a RV so for me it’s a must.

[anandraj.p]

Right now, Can I go for iPad 9th gen (64gb wifi) or spend some extra and get an iPad 10th gen 🤔

[cxa]

I want to be able to make calls and send and receive texts on my iPad. Can I do all that with the Wi-Fi only version? 🤔

[GregBrecker]

With the new m4s coming out BB has a $300 drop on their cellular unlocked model M2 iPad Pro.
