    Had this iPad for a while. Works great. I have since upgraded to an iPad with more gb. Tan slow after a while with games and pics filling it up. Good purchase would definitely recommend for someone that doesn’t do a lot on it and use much memory.

    The iPad was perfect for my granddaughter's 5th birthday. The look on her face brings tears to my eyes even now. The service was quick and I was in and out of the store in less than 20 minutes. I purchased the same one for my other granddaughter for her 5th birthday in December and she loved it and STILL carries it everywhere she goes!!! Thank you!

    Worth the money

    I recently upgraded to this model from the previous and immediately noticed the performance difference. The display looks great, the apps run smoothly and the inclusion of the apple pencil compatibility is a very welcome addition. The price is hard to swallow at first, but the improved hardware and longevity of Apple products make it worth the money. Definitely recommend if you want great functionality in a small package.

    My fist iPad mini, which I got in 2012, was great in its day, but was getting really slow and Apple stopped supporting it with software updates, so it was time to get the latest generation. New iPad mini is much faster, has much higher resolution and much better sound than my first one ever had, even when new. Also some other changes I like, like swiping down from the top right corner of screen to access Control Center. Very happy with it - glad Apple brought back the mini - full size iPads are way to big for me to use.

    Replaced iPad Mini 2g

    My wife needed a new iPad to replace her 2nd gen iPad Mini. Old processor and only 16GB of storage. She loves the 5th gen 2019 version with 64GB. Slim and lighter. I still think Apple manipulated the consumer for storage. 64 GB = kinda small. 256 = +$150 and maybe more than would ever get filled. They prefer selling the re-occurring cloud fees. Goldilocks and the three Bears in the 21st century. It’s still the small form factor hand held computer that is always ready to use anywhere at home. GO FOR IT!
