Bought as a gift for my wife, and she loves the form factor and portable nature of the iPad mini. I have an iPad Pro 12.9, which I love, but I admit I am sometimes jealous of her mini. As an e-reader and browsing device it is incredibly light and convenient.

The mini Ipad was purchased as something that did not take up much space and provided access to everything I needed, without lugging my Mac or larger Ipad. I had a previous earlier version that did not have that was slowing down. I am happy with it. Plus it helped that it was on sale for $50 off the list price.

We bought this for our nine year old daughter. She loves it and all the things she is able to do with. Smooth operationally, camera is great, which she uses all the time, video capture is very responsive, looks good in slow-mo. Definitely get protection for this iPad or any other one for that matter.

I have been waiting for the new mini for about 3 years or more because I wanted something bigger than an iPhone and smaller than an iPad. Something I could carry around in my bag for quick easy work and it’s been the best purchase! I’ve gotten more on this than my actual MacBook and my iPhone. I’m a very happy customer!

Because of the current school closures, we found we needed something for Zoom calls. We already had a full size iPad, but this mini comes in handy when we have more than one going on at the same time. It’s compact, has the fingerprint recognition, and appears to have everything we have in our larger iPad.

I had a Nexus 7 then a Samsung galaxy S2 tablet. Both were good but can’t hold a candle to the iPad. I also love that it pSirs with my iPhone and that Apple will support it for twice as long as Samsung did The wa e is for larger tAblets but this is the perfect size for easy handheld use

Apple mini ipad

It's OK. I have not used Apple products since the original ipad. Like most electronics companies Apple products become obsolete after several years. I cannot use most apps now with my old ipad because I have not been able to update the operating system for several years. Too bad Apple especially does not provide for updating the ram and regular memory.
Anyway, the ipad mini is very light. So far, the only real complaint about it specifically is that it would not load web pages after an update...after hours of tinkering, I figured out it was the VPN (Nord)...but it worked fine before update.

This was a replacement for my years old iPad mini 4. I was tempted to go with the regular sized iPad, but stuck with the mini. This iPad handles all of my needs - studying, watching movies, and reading books. My biggest gripe would be the price ($400 for 64GB).

Needed to replace my old iPad mini, and this one is great. Had a few issues with setting it up, but I got the AppleCare+ package, and they were able to help me. I love Apple products, and I've had another tablet I got for free from Verizon.....which was garbage.

Purchased tablets for my mother and father for Mother's Day and Father's Day respectively and they love it. Size is perfect, not too big and not too small. They love the size and how it is easier on their eyes compared to watching youtube and browsing facebook previously from their iPhones.

I bought this for my Daughter and she is in love with it. The Ipad has stood up to abuse well seeing as my daughter is young and doesn't take care of it very well. Battery life is still doing well even with irregular charging.

I LOVE this iPad; I’ve had an original iPad, iPad mini, iPad 5th gen, and this is BY FAR my favorite. It’s not too big to be cumbersome and a pain to use; and it’s still small enough to be shoved in my purse, lol!

Its been nine months since I've bought the ipad mini. For me its perfect. I use it for media consumption mainly. Watching and reading content. I had the ipad mini 2 before I sold it on ebay. Quality product. I have no issues with using Apple's tablets. I'm still stubborn about buying an iphone.

My mom's aging iPad Mini 2 she picked up from a pawn shop had seen better days. Picked this up for Christmas and it proved to be a much faster, reliable upgrade! Best of all, no additional education required as it is virtually the same design as before.

I GOT THIS AS A REPLACEMENT TO THE MINI I HAD WHICH WAS ABOUT 5 YEARS OLD. BOUGHT THE ROSE COLORED ONE BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER LOVES THE COLOR. WAS EASY TO SET UP AND DIDNT NEED A NEW OTTERBOX BECAUSE THE SIZE IS STILL THE SAME. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE TOO.
