    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.

    The product is great, I bought it as a replacement of a very old one for my kid. Placing order is easy even though order status was never updated online. The pick up was easy. Since the price they offered is much lower than apple store, I’m very happy with the purchase.

    iPad Mini 4 vs iPad Mini 5?

    I had the mini 4 for about one year. Liked the idea of the pencil, so I traded in my Mini 4 towards the 5! Experience wise, so far it doesn't feel like I have a new tablet. Even though the screen quality and brightness is a bit better. The basics seem to still perform almost as snappy. Using the pencil is what make the minor overall upgrade better. The dated design seems a bit of a waste of space, overall foot print wise. Have the Pro 11 1st gen, the smaller bezel is better. With talk of the next mini 6 being closer to 8.9. that is what this one should have been. Videos and graphics work, is clearly better on the mini 5, way better. Multiple open tabs in Chrome are also smoother. I would recommend if you cannot wait till mid 2021. Otherwise wait until the next gen arrives.

    I bought this ipad for my kids and they love it already. Its very easy to use and allows for them to do anything they would need to for playing and for anything school related. This purchase was definitely worth it especially because when i bought it, it was on sale.

    We finally replaced our very old iPad mini 2nd generation model with new iPad mini 5th generation. What a difference these new models make compared to our old ones! This 5th generation version is very fast - and has eliminated our frustrations with our old iPads. I'm very pleased that we made the decision to replace our old ones - wish we had done it sooner!
