    Wow, what can I say, the size is just right to use and hold everyday. The battery life is far better than any other tablet I have ever owned and previous generation iPads included. The screen ratio being 4:3 rather than 16:9 makes it feel bigger than other 8 inch tablets and has much more usable screen space. Off course the price is higher than most other 8 inch tablets, but it is built rock solid and worth every penny given the app choices, and battery life.

    My dad had the original iPad that came out so long ago and I realized that he was limited on what he could do with it. I bought this item for him and it works out great for what he needs

    The iPad mini 2 is very user friendly and easy to navigate. Many wonderful features. FaceTime is a great way to talk and see old friends & family that are not within visiting distances.

    My wife hadn't ever evinced an interest in the Internet and I advised her that an IPad mini would be handy for her and, if she wished, she could forward mails to be printed to my Mac.

    I got a great deal during a sale as I was looking for a replacement for my Kindle Fire HD. I like them both for separate reasons. The iPad is good for apps and light work but I don't see this as a laptop replacement. I should have shelled out the difference and went with the 32GB for my use. The 16GB fills up pretty quickly if you're app and photo/video heavy.

    I initially had the first gen iPad, used it, and didn't really care for it. A few generations later comes the ipad Mini--retina in this case. I bought it and really like it. It's a great size for reading & fits well in the hand even by itself. This is a premium device (price also reflects it) and Apple spares no expense at making it look like it, but for the features, options, and a quality look & feel device...there aren't too many that compare to the iPad.

    Bought iPad mini for my son. Great gadget for the kids. With family sharing it is now easier to monitor and control their purchases while allowing them to have their independant accounts.

    Not much to say. If you have owned any Apple product and enjoy the experience then buying the mini won't be any different. Great purchase!

    Once again Apple has come out with a great tablet. If you have the original ipad you need to upgrade to this one. It has a fantastic camera, has face time, and so many useful upgrades.

    I have an iPhone as it is and it seemlessly works as a middle ground between my phone and my laptop. Great for travel and even to smaller things like the gym when doing light cardio.

    Love the ipad mini. Price is much better than ipad air and screen size is not that much of a drop-off. Very easy to use and without a doubt the only tablet I would tell people to buy.
