Why do you have an iPad?
I had an iPad 2. Dropped it and replaced it recently with an iPad Air. (128 GB, LTE.)
I read on it, mainly. Post on discussion fora. Watch movies. Browse websites. Watch sports. Listen to music. (Best speakers since my old Playbook!) Look at pictures. Etc.
For me, it's mainly a media consumption device. It's especially good when I'm travelling. Great battery life!
For the media junkies, it's very useful. For others with graphics-intensive work, it's also quite useful.
But for people who are very meat-and-potatoes "I want to do X and that is all", it's probably a waste of money. Premium products are to take pleasure in. If you can't, don't bother with it.
I drive a simple car. A premium car would be a waste on me. For some, a premium tablet is a similar waste.
EDIT: other big use for others -- scaleable text. Once upon a time, old people had to buy special large-print books. Now, they can just buy e-books and increase the text size.
