This purchase was a long way into internet reviews and tech sites about the iPad, I’m an android/Windows/Linux person, and I’ve always thought that Apple products are way overpriced, but I decided to purchase this tablet for a set of reasons, being the most important the constant software (OS) updates, which is a very hard thing to keep up in the android side (unless there’s a custom rom that is being supported on a particular device, the screen looks amazing (in comparison with all the devices I’ve had), and it is pretty fast for a tablet in this price range. It’s battery is amazing if you don’t max out screen brightness The only drawback perhaps is the ‘’dated’’ design.

Wow, this iPad mini is fast and furious. It replaces my iPad mini 1st generation. The size is just right to carry in my purse. I purchased a Zagg keyboard to use it as a personal computer. I also read books on it and the cameras can used to take glorious pictures and videos. I can also use my Apple pen with it. Apple outdid themselves with this model. Keyboard sold separated by Zagg.

I bought this for Wife’s birthday, unsure how she’d take to it. I was tempted to save money on gen 4 or 3, but am glad I future-proofed with this new gen 5 model. The A12 Bionic chip is super-fast and apps open instantaneously. She uses it way more than expected and tells me almost daily how much she loves it (and coconut case) even a month later.

This was my first apple product and I must say I am really impressed with this item so far it allows me to be able to be in contact with husband other than by our phones, and I use it for my cricut design space, and to read my bible on with app. It is big enough to love it and small enough to carry in any purse from my vera bradley crossbody bag to my large bags it fit conveniently in my side pocket and doesn't add any extra noticable weight. I really love this gift my husband got for me to feel in the loop with my boys and him.

I loved every bit of this iPad. It’s so easy for my grandma to control and it’s not too big so it creates more space for us!
