No, it's super laggy just like all e-Ink devices, except for the natively-optimized note taking app which feels fine for writing and taking notes. Don't expect an iPad experience at all. The reasons I use it are - To get eye strain relief when reading ebooks, academic papers, or long PDF documents - To be able to read those things in bright sunlight while outdoors - Insanely good battery life compared to a traditional tablet, I only charge mine about once a week - Screen continues to display while consuming zero power, after device goes to sleep, which is useful for practicing music, and for placing reference documents on the table while I work on e.g. electronics, or recipes while working in the kitchen. I don't have to keep smacking it every 2 minutes to wake it up, and it won't run out of battery displaying a single PDF page for several days
