4G LTE or 32 GIG

[HarryStamper]

IMHO Apple makes it difficult to choose an iPad. I have pretty much decided on the Retina 4...
Now I have to decide on 4G or using the extra 100 bux for a 32 GB model.
Most people don't end up with the 4G. Interested in hearing your feedback.

Hi - Are you saying if I get the LTE iPad and don't activate the cellular, I can still use the GPS (does that include the GPS apps?)
in the car? That would seal it...

 

[HarryStamper]

thank you, that seals it.

 

[HarryStamper]

you sure, you don't need an internet connection?

It would have to be a 3rd party GPS mapping app that preloads maps. I'm sure someone with experience with those apps will chime in on which ones work best.

Dude don't get the cellular unless u absolutely have to. I'm in the same boat as you, I need 32GB but I kinda wanted the LTE, but then I realized I always have my phone with me so I can just tether my iPad from my iPhone. And besides, there's WiFi everywhere nowadays , AND it's an iPad 4 so I'm guessing your like me and its gonna mostly be at home or at family/girlfriend/friends houses and not always with you so with WiFi only you are set. Don't spend the extra $130 on cellular that u will have to pay extra for as well, spend the extra $100 and get more memory

Let me start of by saying, it entirely depends on what you plan on doing with it (and where you are for 3G/4G service). 4G iPad is amazing, and I say it's definitely worth it. Something incredibly convenient about having an always-on 4G LTE connection (assuming your area is covered well - mine is).

If you don't think you'll use the 4G when you're not on WiFi, then don't worry about it. Go with the additional memory.

I made this same decision today I got the iPad 4 .. 4g ... Too many times I needed Internet and didn't have it so this time I went 4g life problem solved lol

TOTALLY AGREE! Especially if you have iPhone for being able to use hotspot, you will need more space than LTE.
