Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought to run Foreflight. It's a good upgrade from the mini 4. Good battery life, fast loading, no overheating yet.

Love this ipad mini can get enough of it and my kids too

I love this Ipad! The colors are so vibrant, the battery lasts so long and I really enjoy using my Apple pencil to write text messages to folks, doodle or whatever! I carry it with me almost everywhere and it's great for listening to my audiobooks! I wish they would make the 128gb size since 256gb is overkill for my needs but I wouldn't be without it. I have small hands and it fits them perfectly plus you can simply carry it in your purse. Don't hesitate! This one rocks!!!

portable, all the storage I need, and the battery will last all day without any worries. I would highly recommend this tablet for students or people who travel often.

I'm the owner of 2 iPad Pro's: a 10.5 and a 12.9. Magnificent work devices, truly the wave of the productive future. However... hold one of these beasts up to read in bed... for an hour... or two. Eventually, no matter your love, your wrist gives out, your fingers tire. And so—to the rescue—my iPad mini 5. Fast, wickedly light, portable. Perfect to read with. Perfect to carry in a pocket. If you CREATE content, yes, go for an iPad Pro. However if you CONSUME content, the iPad Mini is the quintessential balance of size and portability. If you're interested in one, just get it. Even if it's your third iPad... You won't regret it.

Perfect iPad for travel. Does everything the big one does just smaller. I use it mainly for streaming and work. Charges very fast and last almost all day. The camera quality is good. I also have the pen and it works very well for drawing, writing, etc. Definitely recommend if you don't mind a smaller screen.

I love it! It’s so fast and nimble with enough memory to save my pictures, music and movies. I got service on it and bring it anywhere. It’s like having a very thin computer/entertainment device/productivity device.

I love my iPad Mini! The battery life is awesome! I also love the size and color! It is perfect for the job I am using it for. I am grateful for Best Buy because they always have what I need. Best Buy you are ultimately the very Best! Thank you Best Buy for your Service!

So happy with my new iPad. I upgraded from a 2nd gen mini that I’ve had for almost 10 years. The mini 5 is so much faster and the battery lasts longer than I expected. Still figuring out all the features that are new to me.

I have had three sizes of iPad and this one is my favorite. I haven’t hooked up the cellular yet but it is good value for what it is. I would say think about how you will use it before choosing a size but for me I travel with it every where so size is important to me.

I recently purchased this a few months ago and absolutely love it. I replaced it with my computer and use it for work (almost 8 hours on it). The battery life is wonderful and a prefect size to carry in your bag.

I love my mini. I take it everywhere I go. It’s the perfect size. It keeps me occupied if I’m waiting for doctor’s appointments, etc.

So figured my old mini was safe.. Nope, 2 year old got it to watch his muppet babies and puppy dog pals while on road trips. Purchased this one to obviously replace that one. Works great! Now i can use the apple pencil with it and store more stuff on it. However, storage is really not a concern for me 128gb was fine, but now you have only 64gb and 256 as an option so i opted for the larger of the two.. nice to have the storage and not need it then to need it and not have it. Great little iPad. the gold is more like Rosegold if you ask me.. When compared to my other iPads the gold is noticeably darker. Over all not a biggie.. It has a back cover on it anyhow so its not like it is shining through.

It’s fast, has fabulous graphics, and I can play games, watch movies, check email, answer calls all day without recharging.

Better smarts. Finally, lots of space for my movies, tunes and data. Better faster cellular handling. Fingerprint recognition needs work.

Great upgrade! More memory & faster speed to run my aviation apps! But wish the price had been lower.

This 5th generation mini pad is noticeably faster than my older model 3. It works very well with long battery life. Best Buy even gave me a reasonable trade in $ for my old iPad. I am very glad with the purchase....and it was cheaper than purchasing on amazon!

This is my second mini Ipad. The Cellular option is so convenient when the phone is not close by. The handy size of the mini is perfect to carry with me in my purse and is always on hand to snap a quick photo or check out various stores when looking for an item needed. Having 256 GM storage allows to keep duplicate files of my computer available wherever I am. Could not be without it.

It took some time to get this iPad mini into my hot little hands, but it was well worth the wait. I bought it mostly for reading kindle books, so much better than the tiny iPhone screen. It’s also great for watching videos of all kinds, but especially YouTube. In fact it’s great for everything just due to having a larger screen, but not the bulky dimensions of the iPad Pro, the mini fits nicely into my handbag.

Great iPad, nice size, & easy to use. I bought the iPad with Cellular to use with flight apps.
