    We purchased this for our child who is in 3rd grade. With the schools closed and needing to transition to doing school fro home, this is what we needed. The App Store has all the apps that their school district is using for them to complete their learning. It also has a great processor, so this will be something can can grow with them over the next several years as their needs for school and gaming grow.

    If you are an android guy and don't need the extra features of the S4 tablet (few people need them, to be honest) this is the tablet for you. More affordable (s4 cost a few hundreds more) fast, superb screen resolution and clarity. I feel it a little more sensitive to the touch than the S2. This is easily a desktop replacement option. Battery last all day long. With the optional keyboard and mouse looks no further, this is it.

    Bought this iPad mini for my wife’s birthday and she absolutely loves it! She wants to use it mainly for reading ebooks, but she can use it for much more and it’s so much better than the Kindle Paperwhite she first tried. The iPad mini is a perfect size for her. Ordering through Best Buy was easy and quick! A very good experience.

    There’s nothing negative to say about this. From an affordable replacement warranty to the high res display or quick processing of applications; this ipad mini has been in daily use since it’s purchase. I don’t know what i’d do without it! I reccomend getting an apple pencil ( off brand or not) to turn this into a beast of productivity.
