A little short on GBs for me but with iCloud photos it is working great. I'm top heavy on the iBooks. Hopefully that will resolve itself also. Love the mini size fits in my pocketbook easily. Light weight. All the functionality of the larger size. I can even work on it. Paired with Zagg Folio great match.

Love the iPad, it's so portable. It has pretty much replaced my big old lap top that I used to chug around the house . So handy for reading iBooks and email and what I really like too is that you can be sitting in the living room and answer your phone or texts right from the iPad instead of having to get up to go answer the phone.,takes great pictures and great sound too. Very happy with purchase.

It's so much easier to use the built in cellular (wifi) than to have to hassle with using a hotel internet when I travel. The other advantage is begin able to use it in the car or wherever that may not have free wifi. I like the mini much better than the air b/c of the size. It fits easily into my purse and it's light weight.

I had a first generation Ipad for 3-4 years and loved it. But it was outdated and I couldn't upgrade the IOS anymore which restricted the Apps I could get. So it was time to buy a new one. I seriously stressed about whether to get a mini or full sized Ipad. I have bad arthritis in my hands now and thought the smaller ipad mini might be easier on my hand. But I was afraid the smaller sized screen would bother me. I was conflicted all the way up to the 14th day of my 14 day trial period. But I kept the mini and I am really happy with it. It pops right in my purse or pocket and I take it everywhere. It does feel much better in my hands. I don't do a lot of streaming or view a lot of TV or movies on my Ipad but the little I do it does not bother me to have the smaller screen. The smaller size makes using the camera a lot easier, too. The only negative comment I have is that sometimes emails come with very small print and can be hard to read. I did increase the size of the font which helped with most everything but very occasionally I get an email I can't read or one that is garbled as a result of the larger font. I always buy the cellular option and it has paid for itself many times over in the first couple of months - especially since AT&T internet went out for 4 days last month. I highly recommend paying the extra $100 for that option.

Having acquired this device via special promotional collaboration between Best Buy and AT&T, it only came with 16 GB of memory. While this is not great for storing lots of apps and photos and videos, it works out well for quick, casual use at home when you don't want to go to the computer.
