    I had an old IPad mini which had become slow and outdated in its technology! But I loved everything about it when it was new so I bought another one similar to my old one and am very pleased!

    This device does all I need it too, and more. The cost was totally in the ballpark for a new electronic device. The salesman helped to decide which model to get, and I appreciated his input.
