    If you are thinking about this (in Feb. 2021), don't. Wait a bit, unless it has a large discount.

    The new iPad mini is pretty complicated for us. And we worry about making a mistake and having the thing go DISABLED AND LOSING ALL OUR DATA INCLUDING PHOTOS such as happened with our old iPad. We may be returning it before January 16th. We may recommend to someone who is more iPad savvy.
