Game changer for Note Taking
Model: iPad A16 11th/10th/Air 11
Great quality, great price, easy to apply. Has completely changed the way I use my iPad and how it feels to write on it.

Feels like paper and makes writing fun!
Model: iPad A16 11th/10th/Air 11
I was hesitant to start using my iPad for class because I HATED how my Apple Pencil sounded hitting the screen while I was writing.
This product has completely changed my mind and now I use it almost daily! I love the feel of this screen and it has lasted all semester long. It was a little tricky getting the screen on just right, and I had to use both because the first time I had a bunch of air bubbles, but the second time was perfect! I think you would probably want to get a new screen every year to ensure it still has that paper-like feel, but I think that’s totally reasonable!

It gets the job done.
Model: iPad 9th/8th/7th, Model: iPad 9th/8th/7th
It isn't too difficult to install, but no matter how hard i tried, I still got some bubbles under the screen. It doesn't feel exactly like writing on paper, but it is much more comfortable than writing on the glossy screen. After i did some writing on the screen, the screen got sime marks that looked like scratches, but it seems to be some kind of dust that comes off the scree, i wiped it off and it disappeared. Now everything on the screen looks pixelated.

After Wasting Money on Kids Tablets… I got these. *Demo Video with 2 Devices*
Color: Gray, Size: 128 GB, Style: Tab A11+, Color: Gray, Size: 128 GB, Style: Tab A11+
I originally bought this tablet for my younger daughter, and after a full year of daily use, I ended up buying it again — and then a third time. Both of my kids (ages 7 and 14) now use the exact same tablet, just with different setups.
And honestly? It’s been a much better choice than any “kids tablet” we’ve tried in the past.
🧠 Why I chose this over a kids tablet:
I’ve purchased multiple kids-specific tablets before, and they were a waste of money.
They were:
slow to load
limited to preset apps
low storage
restricted controls
frustrating to use overall
With this, I can: 👉 set my own parental controls
👉 allow only what I want
👉 still give my kids a fully functional device
It’s a normal tablet — and that’s exactly why it works better.
👩👧👧 Real-life use (2 kids, same tablet)
Both of my daughters use this daily, but in completely different ways:
7-year-old (1 year of use):
YouTube (including shorts — no buffering issues)
Kids games (Google Play)
School work
Taking photos
14-year-old (new user):
Drawing (Ibis Paint X)
Internet browsing
Occasional games
It handles BOTH without any issues.
⚡ Performance & usability
Fast, smooth loading — no lag for everyday use
Can run multiple apps/tabs easily
No overheating, even with extended use
Strong, stable WiFi connection
Great battery life (lasts hours of use)
Charges from 0–100% in about 2 hours
It feels like using a large phone — everything is familiar and easy to navigate.
🖥️ Display & design
Full 11” screen
Clear, bright graphics
Sleek, slim, lightweight design
Extremely portable
Great for videos, drawing, reading, and general use.
✍️ Input & compatibility
Works well with fingertips, stylus, and S Pen
Access to Google Play Store
Syncs with Samsung account
Can connect with other Samsung devices
📦 Storage & expandability
128GB internal storage
Supports microSD (if needed)
We’ve comfortably had:
25–30 apps/games installed before needing to clear space
📸 Camera
Decent quality
Perfectly fine for kids taking photos/videos
🔌 Small things to know
Comes with USB-C cord, but no wall adapter
You’ll need your own charging block
Final Thoughts
This is not marketed as a kids tablet — and that’s exactly why it works so well for kids.
It’s:
faster
more flexible
more reliable
and something they won’t outgrow quickly
After a full year of use and multiple purchases, I can confidently say:
This has been one of the best tech purchases I’ve made for my kids.
❤️ My 14-year-old is just starting to explore digital art, and immediately began working on her very first piece using this tablet and a stylus.
Watching her sit down and just… create without struggling with the tools was honestly the most impressive part for me. No lag, no weird pressure issues, no frustration — it felt natural to her right away. As a parent, that moment alone made this feel worth it. It turned something new and intimidating into something she was excited about instantly. She spent a total of 19 hours on her drawing.
⭐ I included a video showing how both of my kids use the same tablet differently, along with the different case setups we use. The first tablet is 1 year old, the second tablet is brand new.
