QUOTE(tps18489 @ Jun 23 2018, 05:46 PM) Hello everyone, where's the cheapest online or physical store to get the latest 32GB iPad? Thank you.  Some discounts on Lazada, but only for the WiFi model. QUOTE(singgung @ May 25 2018, 04:27 PM) I'm more concerned on it's wifi reception. My room is a bit far from the router but I have no problem with the reception or connection with my ipad 4. But sitting in the same spot, this new ipad struggles with the reception. My ipad 4 finished loading and sometimes this ipad still haven't open the same webpage. Having had the iPad 2018 for three weeks now, I concur with your observations. I noticed that when I'm downstairs (my router is upstairs) the WiFi connection is pretty spotty, especially if I'm on the 5 GHz band. It seems to get disconnected every now and then compared to my previous iPad Air 2 which was quite stable. This post has been edited by attw: Jun 24 2018, 08:36 AM

My guess is the 5ghz band may not be as strong enuf to penetrate walls and tiles as 2.4ghz. Previously I had the Asus RT-N12HP which doesn't even have 5ghz band. Watch youtube not aware it dropped to LTE, wasted my quota. Changed to Asus Lyra, no dropouts ever since.

Ya, my iPad also went from WiFi to LTE in the middle of a WhatsApp call but luckily I realised it before it finished off the data quota, haha. 2.4GHz does seem more stable than 5GHz though. Nevertheless will continue to observe and see.

iPad 2018 users with Apple Pencil, is the Pencil useful? I still can't bring myself to buy a RM400 stylus just for casual note-taking. I'm no sketch artist!

Cheapest is probably from GO Shop with 12% discount. (128GB @ RM15xx) But currently out of stock. And it comes with additional 1 year warranty.

Only for casual note taking? NO. Lol. You'd be better off looking for pen and paper to take notes. Or just type on it. Some additional reminders, the pencil can't be used fully for navigations, like can't pull down notifications or pull up the control centre. Also the additional steps of pairing and charging
