I love the integration of the apple ecosystem like the airdrop, copy/paste on any device, apple tv keyboard on my iphone, etc. It is very convenient. I’ve also encountered lesser problems with using apple products and they last longer! Our family still have an ipad 2, iphone 7 & 8, even the ipod, and all of them still work fine for games, youtube and safari.

I’m not “all-in” in the software side tho. I use apple software but I still have gmail, 1password, and microsoft office. I had more software but since most started to become subscription only, I had to retain only the important ones.

ipad mini, just the right size and it's not too heavy like other ipads. Also very portable so it's easy to bring anywhere I go. Battery also lasts at least a day.
