Should Students Buy Apple iPad?

We all know that Apple iPad is one state of the art gadget that is targeted for business class people but apart from business class people there are many other people who are equally interested in getting their hands of this sleek tablet computer. Students are more attracted towards the latest technology and therefore you cannot keep Apple iPad away from kids going to schools and colleges, but the questions is that should they go ahead and buy an Apple iPad?

Apple iPad has many features that would work for students as well like it is very lightweight and portable which means that students do not have to carry books for references. They can use eBooks because Apple iPad has a big high resolution screen that makes reading a pleasure. You can even write on iPad so it works as all in one tool that is so light that it might adjust itself in any backpack. The battery life of Apple iPad is for around 10 hours which is clearly a good point for student. The touch screen is big and iPad does not create any humming noise while it is functioning and therefore Apple iPad does have some features that would benefit the students.

However, students might have to slow down their work because Apple iPad struggles when it comes to multi-tasking. It would create a problem if the student has to take down notes quickly and if iPad does not allow the student to work efficiently. Another thing that students might not be happy with is the lack of keyboard. Though, iPad has an onscreen keyboard it might not be as useful as the real keyboard. Apple iPad lacks USB port and SD card slot which means students will not be able to share data quickly among themselves and this would go against Apple iPad.

    The iPad isn’t a device targeted at business class people. It is a personal/consumer device that can be used by business people in several situations.

    Apple has a 10-unit bundle of the iPad specifically for educational institutions, so I would say that they had students in mind when creating the device. In fact it should be reasonable easy to share information through email as most applications have that functionality built right in.

    @Mauricio Yes. I somewhat agree with you. Students can use it easily at the classroom.
