    Been waiting for this style iPad mini. No home button and the ability to use my Apple Pencil. I immediately sold my iPad Air to get the mini simply for its portability.

    I have an iPad Pro 12.9 for work, but I wanted something a bit more compact that I can use to watch movies and surf the net. I could even fit this in my pocket. It's a lot faster than I imagined and works great.

    This iPad Mini does all I need. And I can still have it easily in my purse for random drawing and work through reading a little bigger then my phone.

    Finally bought this when it was on sale to replace my wife's Gen 4 ipad mini that only has 16 GB. She is now enjoying the large storage, speed and graphics.

    Perfect Portable Device

    This is the fifth iPad that I’ve owned and has likely gotten more use in the last month than the others would get in a year. Easily fits into a bag or large jacket pocket makes it highly portable. The added Apple Pencil input for the mini series makes it perfect for note taking. I’ve found the size and functionality make it a perfect addition to my everyday carry arsenal. The only complaint, and its a small one is the location of the power and volume buttons, which end up on the left side when holding it in landscape mode. Once I got used to unlocking it with my left hand this minor inconvenience was all but forgotten.

    I Pad Mini 6

    I love my new I Pad mini. Like all Apple products it is a superior product. Be aware the charger is not the same as previous I Pads. It's a USB C charge cable not a lightening cable. Since I have several Apple products I'm going to have different charging cables for all of them That's a bummer. Set up is very easy. If you have a previous I Pad you are replacing you can just put the two I Pads together during the setup process and it is pretty automatic. You will need a case specifically for I Pad 6. It is shaped a little differently than the 4 or 5 models so those cases will not work. I got the 256 GB so plenty of storage.

    I like the new home button that has moved to the side. Vast improvement over the push one at the bottom middle which gets stuck in the older model. Extra GB was worth the price and like the smaller size.

    The iPad Mini 6 is the perfect device for someone who still insists they need a Mac for everything. Or for someone who likes to spend money and has a larger iPad Pro — and wants something extraordinary for reading and consuming content. When/if Apple tosses an M1/M2 into the iPad Mini, I’ll buy another. This time with Cellular and more storage, though. I don’t need a new iPad Pro, but I am keenly watching/waiting for a new iPad Mini.

    A Great Extremely Portable Tablet.

    This is an amazing product. I loved the touch i.d. It’s problem is too many apps haven’t embraced this screen size. I didn’t notice the “jelly scroll” I’ve heard complaints about due to its lack of a 120Hz display. I do feel that “Promotion” should have been a feature on the Mini; however, the Mini has always had a high price point due to its extreme portability. The Touch ID is fantastic. I did wind up exchanging this for an upgrade to the 11” iPad Pro because the price difference for the features I would get made it a better choice for me. If you want extreme portability and you don’t care about a 120Hz display, or the lack of Face ID, and you don’t mind the trade-offs with he smaller screen, this could be perfect your you.
