So, why did you pay a premium for iPad when Android tablet at roughly half the price would give you the same functionality? (btw I don't get it either. But I don't see anything special about iPad, hence my question)

Two reasons: 1) It had the best form factor these days. It was the lightest 9.7inch tablet. Nowadays, a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 scores better. 2) iOS is a popular OS, so I wanted to have at least one device running it.

120hz refresh rate, brightest screen, best stylus I hate iOS but the hardware is far beyond any android tablet.

The hardware is really really good, well supported and it's pretty light with excellent battery life. It's actually not al l that more expensive than Androids either (the new "cheap" iPad is actually on-par or cheaper than Android competitors). Having said that, Apple does make a few funny pricing decisions that pushed me to buy an ASUS Zenpad instead.
