    I recently purchased the iPad Mini with cellular and couldn’t be happier! So Ibought another one albeit the cellular part. Again the entire process—from ordering to delivery—was incredibly smooth. It was super easy to place the order, and I was surprised by how quickly it arrived at my doorstep. The device itself is fantastic—compact, powerful, and perfect for on-the-go use. Overall, a truly great experience. Highly recommend both the product and the service!

    This iPad is excellent for a child or someone without much activity since due to its size it is my nightstand companion but it performs all its functions well. I recommend it.

    Works great, just don't use it much. Originally purchased to facilitate my wife's transfer from her iPhone to and Android so she could still face time with her family, but she still has not gotten rid of her iPhone. Nice to travel with.

    I had a mini 6th Gen before this (essentially the same) but I decided to upgrade due to the now 128 GB option and the upgraded chip! I use this to casual game and catch up on tv shows/movies, so the extra space is worth it. With Best Buys great trade in option & discounts, I got it for an amazing price! If you want something that's light, easy to take with (can fit easily in a backpack, purse or carry on) and top quality.. this is it! Excited to see what apple continues to do with the mini series... would love to see a "pro" mini option! (upgraded sound, graphics, chip, etc).

    Still adjusting to smaller size but performance is excellent as with my prior larger iPad Pro. The mini retains much of the excellence of function in a more compact size.p

    I wanted a tablet but did not want something too big. I like Apple producs but for this was willing to go with something else that was less expensive since it is just for browsing, etc. I have a full size iPad in the house but it’s too big. I saw the Mini and really liked the size, and surprisingly, there is really no other tablet with the same size and form factor as the Mini. I waited for it to go on sale and got it Open Box to maximize the savings and it looks and works like new as is the case with most Open Box items at Best Buy. Anyway, it’s Apple, it’s good if you like Apple, simple as that

    I wasn't sure just how often I'd use it... but I am surprised that I use it daily. It's really handy when you don't want the larger version at the moment and the phone is simply too small a screen. I use it for taking notes, as a palm Bible and for quick internet searches.

    I purchased this iPad mini to replace the previous version simply for more storage space. I was surprised it was not as easy to set up from my other device, as setups usually are. I worked around it and got everything set up manually. Not sure what happened, but it’s all good now. The color is so light, you can barely tell it’s purple. Wish the color was a little deeper. I was able to use the cover from my previous device, happy about that. Battery seems to last a couple days so far with light use. I’ll see how it goes as I use it more. No complaints, just a slight upgrade.

    Comparing with mini 5

    mini 7 minimized the space around the screen so the 2D dimension is smaller and it is easier to be held by hand. It can be better if mini 7 can have the round edges on mini 5.
