    Together with a Go Pro camera I have an unbeatable pair that work together really well. No buyers remorse with this choice. Love it and get a lot of use out of it. Recommend the life proof nuud case.

    Amazing deal! I was a little worried that the screen would be too small but it turns out that the size was perfect for my son. He loves it and prefers it over the larger iPad we have.

    I bought this for my daughter for her birthday. She uses it for school work when we travel as a home schooled student it is more convenient than dragging her laptop. She loves it.

    I love my new iPad. I chose the mini for portability. It's very easy to use. The one drawback is the availability of cases for the mini w/retina display. The cases that are available are very expensive.

    Purchased this as a gift for my husband as a portable tablet to carry around. It worked perfect for his intentions. It was bigger than the iPad and smaller than a lap top. He loves it!

    I've owned all the versions of iPad up to this one, from the first generation. I was deciding between this and the iPad Pro, but for the price, and what I use it for (home automation controls and basic streaming), I went for this. The power of the iPad is the iOS ecostystem of apps. It's user friendly and the apps are solid, compared to Android counterparts I've used. The screen is sensitive to the touch and accurate. I'm sure you've already done your research leading up to this page. I would buy it at Best Buy instead of Apple.com if you are a Rewards Member to get points, and the return policies are better, depending on what status you have.

    Still using my iPad 1st generation. It is an awkward size to just carry around. Really enjoying this smaller size but still big enough to easily read information. Loving Apple's innovative products.

    First time I have owned an Apple product. Gotta say it's more intuitive that Microsoft and even Android. Sure wish you could add some GB with a Micro SD.

    If you're an ipad fan, wait til you try the retina display ipad. I use this for my construction business to show before and after pictures to my clients. Best product available for business types.

    Bought two Ipad Mini's for Christmas presents. Now I am a hero with my sons. Just wish I would have bought one for myself. And the sale at Best Buy was the best price I found all Holiday season.

    Purchased this to use with an app because the android version had known bugs (DramaFever). I thought I probably wouldn't like it and would return it, but I use it just about daily! The battery life is superb: I first used it on an international trip, and I got about 10 hours of movie watching before I needed to plug it in! Great for long plane rides!

    It's like owing a tablet, the price wasn't too bad. It works great! I personally own an iPhone as well, so they both do wonders for me. I love using this ipad mini on a daily.
