A compact powerhouse would best describe my new iPad mini. This little beast does it all and has sent my daily work productivity through the roof. I’m so glad the knowledgeable staff at the Holmdel NJ Best Buy recommended this product, thanks again guys!

I am replacing my Samsung that wont stay charged. I absolutely loved my Samsung and would have payed to get if fixed but the price on this was just to good.
Good things. Its apple and it works seemless with my iPhone.
Awesome! View for watching shows and surfing the internet. It is a larger screen than i am used to but amazing color. I can answer my phone with it. FaceTime with it. I am pleased with it.
I will say this. Again i loved my Samsung. The size was great and the weight was good. I bought the ipad and it is larger and heavier and at times a little awkward but i may not be used to it either. If i wanted something closer to the Samsung i should have got the MINI. But again for the price i couldn't resist. I have used apple for a while but not an ipad. So it has taken me a few minutes to get used to. I have a plus phone and now in comparison the phone seems small. I love being able to surf the internet and watch programs.
I bought a pencil only because i thought it was cool. I found that I don't have a use for it, and i returned it.

I've always been partial to the iPad Mini's form factor. Thought Apple had left it for dead after the Mini 4. This unexpected update is great. Love the Pencil support. Display is very nice with True Tone. Lightning fast. Very happy with this.

As noted we use our iPads. We’ve had minis, standard and pros. Some WiFi only and others tied to Verizon. Only issue We’ve ever had was a lightening connector going bad on a connected pro which was something that I think shouldn’t have occurred and represents a manufacturing flaw. Otherwise we’ve been very pleased. This latest version is faster and the display is better. We opted for WiFi only because my wife primarily uses it as a reader and access the internet in areas where we have secured high speed WiFi access. It is apparent however that Apple is moving away fro the mini in as much as you won’t even find it on display at any Best Buy.

I have never bought Apple until now. I honestly bought it to stream fitness apps while exercising. It's a beautiful device with a gorgeous screen and generous battery life. I was hesistant paying the Apple price tag but I have no regrets with this purchase.

Fourth iPad mini I get, and they keep feeling better. Not much to say here. I use it to play videogames and watch some TV and this is the best display quality of all I've had. Speed is wonderful and Wi-Fi works great. Feels solid.

Great we love it. Works great small enough to manage and lite weight to not weigh ya down or tire your arms out from holding it. The life of the battery could b alittle longer but besides that i hav no complaints. Thank u. Wish there was more covers for them though.

This is my replacement for my 2017 iPad mini4 which I lost. My needs; Netflix, photos, emails, and games. I don't notice a difference between the iPad mini4, and the new version. Beautiful picture, fast processor, and lightweight. For the price it's perfect!

Great upgrade from iPad mini gen 1

My iPad mini gen 1 stopped taking iOS updates quite awhile ago. I had no real reason to upgrade until now. A new app I wanted to use required iOS 10 or later... so, took the plunge. The five biggest benefits to upgrading were, 1) iOS 12 support; 2) support for latest apps; 3) processor speed; 4) twice the memory; 5) Apple Pencil support. At first, I thought the pencil support was frivolous, but I love it! It speeds up note taking, navigation and is fun to use.

Very happy with how user friendly it is. Have always used android devices and was nervous for the switch. I have been pleased with how quickly I was able to adapt. Love the size. It fits perfectly in my small purse. The screen is very easy to see after my cataract surgery.

I wish this was cheaper (especially given the price of the 10.2 iPad). This is a perfect size for kids. Also, I love the fact that the latest chip is being used. My only problem is the price. I think it's $50 too high (but you can occasionally find it for sale).

My ipad 2nd generation is still going strong without getting ios upgrades anymore. But finally i bought another. Works great. Can now color books with the pencil. I bought the one with the orange cover. No problems at all. I Use it mostly to read. So the true tone is useful and the chip is fast

I upgraded my sons mini iPad that he’s had for 5 years. This was a huge upgrade. He loves it. Quality of screen is clear and amazing. Easy to navigate and storage is a huge plus. Looking into getting myself one now.

Simple to use and understand, very fast and easy setup. You can easily link your google account and transfer your info. Long battery life,only minor complaint is the flip feature sometimes goes a little crazy, but overall it’s a great product
