Customer Ratings & Reviews

This IPad has the perfect specs! It has an A15 chipset with 6 cores for cpu & 5 for gpu, & it has 4 GBS of ram. The screen is 500 nits has hdr, true tone and supports apple pencil 1 & 2. The cameras are both 12MP front and back! It even has a flash & center stage. There are 4 speakers & it’s louder than the iPad 10th generation. The IPad Mini 6 uses USBC charging, & the battery last a solid 10 hours! My personal favorites about this IPad are the screen size, portability, and ease of use. This iPad should be supported for quite sometime as it has the same chipset as the 2022 Iphone 14s. The iPad Mini 6 is really fast, and using it for work, education, streaming, music is the perfect device! I like that I can disconnect from my phone and just use my ipad mini for calls, facetime and if a moment pops up I can still capture great photos! People complain 64GBS is not enough, get icloud storage! My ipad mini has alot on it, but not everything is saved! If your debating what ipad to get right now, I would choose the mini 6 over the ipad 9 anyday! Yes it cost more, but you are getting so much more for your money! Plus the added upgrades, features, & longevity! I hope my review helps someone! You can also edit photos built in! Just use your apple pencil!

OMG, I am so impressed with this tablet! I have owned many an iPad and currently have an 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 inch which I use as a "laptop replacement" for heavier tasks. Between the iPad Pro and giving my older iPads to my grandkids, I really wanted something just for myself that is more portable than the big iPad Pro. A tech reviewer on YouTube called this tablet the "middle child" and he really nailed it with that description. It's a perfect size for content consumption. It's fast, the LCD screen is very good (but don't try to compare it to the iPad Pro, they are not comparable), and the portability is a big plus. The sound is great with the additional speakers and the battery life is outstanding. The USB C is great too, it opens up a variety of uses that were previously more difficult on the older iPads. It's a mini version of the iPad Air that came out earlier this year, with a better (newer) processor. I use my tablets for reading, watching videos and surfing the internet so this iPad is perfect for that use, plus I can take it with me when I travel on vacation, instead of having to lug the larger iPad Pro along. My only regret is that I didn't purchase the 256 GB model -- I could have used the extra storage for photos. No worries, I am enjoying this tablet very much just the same.

The iPad Mini has completely transformed my digital experience, and I couldn't be more impressed! This compact powerhouse of technology is a game-changer in every sense, earning it a solid five-star rating without hesitation. First and foremost, the iPad Mini's size is an absolute delight. Its ultra-portable form factor effortlessly fits into my bag or even a large pocket, allowing me to take it with me wherever I go. The 7.9-inch Retina display, with its vibrant colors and sharp details, enhances my viewing pleasure and immerses me in a world of stunning visuals. Don't let its compact size fool you, though! This pint-sized wonder packs a punch when it comes to performance. The A-series chip at its core ensures seamless multitasking, smooth navigation, and blazing-fast app launches. Whether I'm editing photos, playing graphics-intensive games, or streaming high-definition videos, the iPad Mini's processing power never fails to impress. One of the standout features of the iPad Mini is its exceptional battery life. Even during extended use, this device refuses to give up, providing hours upon hours of uninterrupted entertainment, productivity, and creativity. It's such a relief to know that I can rely on its longevity, especially during long flights or road trips. Another aspect worth mentioning is the improved camera system. With its advanced optics, the iPad Mini captures stunning photos and videos, making it a reliable companion for capturing memories on the go. Whether it's a scenic landscape or a close-up shot, the camera consistently delivers impressive results, making me feel like a professional photographer. Furthermore, the integration of the latest iPadOS further elevates the overall experience. The intuitive interface, combined with the vast selection of apps in the App Store, provides endless possibilities for productivity, creativity, and entertainment. Whether I'm sketching, editing documents, or watching my favorite TV shows, the iPad Mini seamlessly adapts to my needs. Lastly, Apple's unwavering commitment to security and privacy is evident in the iPad Mini. With Face ID, my personal data remains safe and secure, and I can unlock the device effortlessly with a mere glance. The robust ecosystem also ensures regular updates and support, giving me peace of mind for years to come. In conclusion, the iPad Mini is a remarkable device that redefines what a compact tablet can do. Its unbeatable combination of portability, power, and versatility is truly unmatched. Whether you're a student, a creative professional, or an avid traveler, this little gem is a worthy investment that will enhance your digital life in ways you never thought possible. Without a doubt, the iPad Mini deserves its well-earned five-star rating!

I recently upgraded to the latest iPad Mini, and it's nothing short of impressive. The A15 Bionic chip ensures smooth performance, whether I'm multitasking or diving into graphic-intensive apps. The 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display delivers vibrant colors and sharp details, making it a joy for both work and entertainment. The compact size is a game-changer for portability, fitting snugly into my bag without compromising screen real estate. The USB-C connectivity is a welcome addition, making data transfer faster and more convenient. The battery life has been reliable, keeping up with my daily tasks without a hitch. The upgraded camera quality adds versatility, capturing clear photos and facilitating seamless video calls. The Touch ID on the power button is quick and responsive, ensuring a secure yet hassle-free unlocking experience. In summary, the latest iPad Mini combines power and portability effortlessly, making it a top-tier choice for anyone on the go. It has become an integral part of my daily routine, and I highly recommend it.

I absolutely LOVE this iPad! I only paid $359+ tax! I got it when the new iPad Air came out in September. It is now mid-October, so I have been using & loving the device for about 6 weeks! When I purchased the device, it was part of a sale on the mini for $399 from $499. I then got an additional $40 off because I chose the “renewed” version, for the total price of $359! It came in the exact same apple box with all components. The iPad is perfect! No scratches, easy to hold, fast, light, and portable. I love that it use USB-C like the iPad Pros and most other devices these days. I would not pay $499 (the typical asking price) for this product. For $399 or less, it is a fantastic deal! It is definitely a niche product for people who want a smaller device. I love it for streaming, email, reading, and general internet browsing. (TIP! Whenever new apple products come out or if there is a holiday sale, the prices of their products drop DRAMATICALLY! I only buy iPads/laptops on sale. These sales are extremely consistent and predictable.) I used to have the iPad mini 4, but by 2022 it was too slow to do any meaningful browsing. I much prefer browsing on my iPad mini 6 vs. my iPhone 13 or my MacBook Air. It is light, fits my hands well, is enough screen to stream and read, and the browsing is FAST! I highly recommend this device to anyone looking for an additional iPad for recreational purposes. Something to note is that the finger scanner button is on the top right of the device and the volume buttons are on the top left of the device. I will note that I also have a regular ipad 9th generation that I use with a folio keyboard case that was provided by the school I work at. I teach special education. I could not do any lesson planning or “work” on my iPad mini. I consider my mini strictly a recreational device. Someone with larger hands or who prefer a larger screen may prefer the cheaper 9th generation iPad which starts at $329 as their daily device (eg. My dad), or if you need something faster and lighter with more technological features, the new iPad Air which starts at $699, might be for you (eg. Student, software engineer, trader, architect). I will also note that I am impressed with how well the regular ipad 9th generation has held up with rigorous daily use for my work. Although the $329 price is appealing, the ipad 9th generation is wayyyy too large and heavy for me to use as a personal device! I use it strictly for work- eg. lesson planning and taking data. I am always excited to go home and do my personal browsing on my adorable iPad mini 6 :) I have the purple color which comes out as a bit more of a grey, as you can see in the pics.

I’ve been holding out using an iPad Mini 2 for about 7 years. Finally they redesigned it and couldn’t be happier. A lot snappier with the new processor and liking the slightly larger screen. The Touch ID is responsive on the button (my old Mini 2 did not have Touch ID so can’t compare the two). Center stage with the wide angle camera is a nice feature. I mostly use it around the home for watching videos on the couch or surfing the web so 64Gb is fine but if you download a lot of movies or games I’d opt for the higher storage. Over all I’m very pleased with the purchase.

iPad Mini 6th Gen is my best friend ! I love how perfect sized it is ! I slip it into my purse and go ! I have the iPhone 14 Pro Max for my phone and then I bring my iPad Mini with me to read on and take notes ! This also is compatible with my Apple Pencil Gen 2 which is amazing because I can use 1 pencil with all my tablets (iPad mini , iPad Pro 11” 2021, and iPad Air 2022). I wouldn’t get rid of this iPad for anything. Out of all my iPads I probably grab for this one the most (unless I’m doing digital design then I grab my iPad Pro as it’s a little faster because it sports the M1 chip ). This iPad would also be perfect for a child ! I recommend these any day over something like the Amazon fire tablet for kids. iPad is the way to go for ANY person ( adult or child, or even elderly that’s not tech savvy ). Easy to use and they last for YEARS !

I absolutely adore this tiny iPad. I've been using it for two weeks now and it's by far one of my favorite purchases from Apple (+ the Apple Pencil). I needed something portable yet reliable for this semester as a lot of my work is digital worksheets and the desks in the lecture halls are ridiculously small. The size is perfect for me. I can have my book open with my iPad either next to it or on top of it and not feel overwhelmed. I also share a room with my sister so it saves up so much space on my desk! It's also super cute and it's so light that it feels like nothing in my backpack. Personally, I feel like the iPad Mini is perfect if you already have an Apple product to go along with it (for me it's my Macbook Air). For example, I can have zoom on my Mini while I do the assignments on my computer or vice versa. But sometimes, I find myself just using my Mini's double app feature instead of my Macbook, LOL (Goodnotes & Microsoft OneNote are my bffs this semester). If you're on the fence between the iPad Mini, iPad Air, or iPad Pro, choose the mini if: 1) You want something that doesn't take up space and is super light 2) You have another device (laptop) to go along with it 3) You want something cute Oh, one thing I forgot to mention. It's perfect to play Genshin Impact on! :)

I love my iPad mini! It is easy to operate and a perfect size for me. Easy to hold and I bought this cute cover for it! The battery is long lasting on this one and the screen is great. I take it with me everywhere. You will not regret this buy.

This device is tiny but it worked as if it were to be an iPad bro to be honest. I took this everywhere with me as my own little travel mini TV. I would watch Netflix and my favorite shows here and take it anywhere. It’s so efficient, fast and it fits in almost everything and it’s very lightweight. I totally recommend this for anybody who likes to travel a lot, and I love to watch shows!!! Hello in one of the pictures I posted I put the mini iPad next to a photo card so you can see the time difference!!!

Honestly it was one of my best purchases for university in this 2024, this iPad helped me a lot to take notes and do my homework using Microsoft softwares and even AutoCad with a long battery duration. I recommend this a lot to everyone who needs a tool very powerful and compact to transport everywhere

This iPad mini is so useful! I carry it back and forth to work and home all the time. It’s fast, lightweight, and it’s easy to use. If you wanna be more creative and productive get yourself one of these. Unless Apple forges a small personal robot straight from Mount Olympus that lives in my wallet - I’ll stick with my iPad mini!

Very nice & small iPad to if you travel often. Easy to keep on you & works great. I love the different color options, I chose purple, which is lovely. Love my purchase!

I love this iPad. It’s the perfect size the liquid retina display is beautiful for watching YouTube or playing games. Great battery life it’s awesome And if you are a Best Buy plus member it’s frequently discounted.

I bought two of these for my kids in hopes they will stop fighting over their old iPads and my phone and iPad. So far it’s a work in progress but we are making progress lol. Overall no buyers remorse whatsoever in fact now I gotta buy my wife a mini her month old iPad needs an upgrade already for some very practical reason that I can’t seem to remember at this moment in time…hmmm yea can’t recall. But picture battery life size and durability all on point as expected. And if it keeps the kids off my phone and my iPad so I can keep my music playing to keep me sane worth every penny I spent on them. Thank you again Best Buy and crew much appreciated for the quality service and products.

I've had every iPad Apple makes, iPad, Air, Pro, and now the new mini 6. This my favorite of them all. I have a MacBook, and this is the perfect companion. I use it for so many things, and it's very powerful. I can take this with me when I don't want or need to take my MacBook.

The size is great it's not heavy at all and it fits in a purse. If you are someone who travels a lot but does not need it to work it is the iPad to choose. Either way, if you need to work a little bit it still works perfectly well.

I was among the very first to purchase the very first iPad and have bought a new iPad every 2-4 years since inception. This is the very first Mini I have bought and couldn't be happier. I bought this specifically for using as a remote control to use with two specific music apps for my audio system. Previously I was using an iPad Air which (with case) I found to heavy and cumbersome. The iPad mini is just perfect as I can hold it in one hand. It is about as light as my iPhone Max which doesn't;t offer quote enough real estate. This is a perfect device and Best Buy actually exceeded my expectations in delivering it sooner than I expected - and at a good price on sale. I absolutely recommend this device.

Originally I ordered purple and was told I was getting it sent to me and when I looked in the box it was grey so I took it back to customer service and got the purple order and altogether I love my new purple iPad mini I must say tho make sure u don’t get the run around since it is hard to find be patient and also when purchasing know exactly what u want don’t settle

The iPad mini is great. The size is really nice, and it’s battery life is excellent too. It’s the typical iPad experience you’d expect, great screen, all day battery life, and good speakers also. For what it is right now, this is probably one of the best iPads for everyday people, if you can live with the small size. Still criminal 64gb is an option in 2023, hopefully that is increased soon.
