    I have used an older version of iPad and this mini 2 works much better than I anticipated. Since I have access to wifi nearly everywhere I go, I don't need a mini air. This one does all I need. Great device for my work for the right price.

    I was thinking a lot on what gift can I gave my mom. A gadget that is simple to use and easy to navigate with quality build and applications. After thorough reading of reviews and comparing platforms and different devices, I decided to get this Ipad mini2. It has a good size especially since my mom is having eye problem. The build is sturdy and the apps are simple. She is not a tech savvy so I was hoping she can start using it immediately. She really appreciate the device because of its simplicity and easy navigation.

    My husband brought my ipad mini2 to the hospital for me. It was so easy to use and helped me spend a month in the hospital without being bored. What a wonderful tool for games, news, and research and staying in contact with friends!

    Fits quite nicely in my purse. I use it professionally to have contracts signed and docs sent. To keep clients children entertained and to store the books I'm reading. I upgraded to 32gigs after having to delete apps on my previous mini.

    Since Apple did away with having a 32gig product, I had to snag this!! Absolutely perfect amount of space for all the media that I carry with me daily and on vacation. Now I can watch movies on a decent screen instead of using my iPhone.

    The I Pad Mini is exactly what the size for a student and a person on the go. Its dimensions are such that carrying it around and using it to study notes is not a burden. I would recommend getting a protective case for it - such as the Life Proof case - if you plan on making your I Pad Mini an everyday tool. Since I have other Apple products, it just makes sense for me to make my everyday tablet compatible with my other devices. It is more expensive than other worthy competitors, but for me the ease use and quality of the Apple made it a no-brainer for me

    I bought this for one purpose: to watch Neflix at the gym. The size is perfect to fit on the bookstand, to read books and the picture and subtitles (need do to gym noise) are readable. It fits in my purse, the picture quality is great.

    This item was open box and it arrived as if it was brand new. So happy to have saved a bit of money! Also the iPad mini 2 is EXACTLY the same as the 3 EXCEPT one feature - finger print ID. If you can live without that go for the 2.

    My old iPad 2 died and I decided on the smaller iPad mini 2. Checked it out at BestBuy before purchase to make sure the smaller size would be acceptable. The size works fine and it is so much easier to take everywhere with me.

    Bought for my son and as always Apple products are good. Only thing is too expensive compared to other brands and not memory expandable. Seems like Apple wants you to spend more for memory when other brands can just plug in a sd card.

    My old gen1 iPad was so out dated so I started looking for a new one and came across the iPad mini 2 for a really good price at Bestbuy, I didn't need the latest version so I purchased the mini 2 and saved quite a bit of money

    I could not find a iPad Mini Gen2 in 32gb in Space Gray, not even from Apple, however I was able to purchase it on Black Friday from my local best Buy. It's a fabulous tablet and I was able to get exactly the model and color I wanted.

    I really enjoy the size of the iPad mini. I thought I would end up missing the original iPad size, but I definitely don't. It isn't all that much smaller, but works well for me as an accessory to my MacBook Pro in graduate school.

    This is the first iPad I've ever had. I love how quickly it loads pages and is big enough to play games on yet small enough to travel with. Even though it's an older version I think it's just as nice and efficient and quick!

    Being a huge Apple fan to start with, for some reason it took me a while to actually buy myself an iPad. I purchased two of the 16gb mini 2's for my kids and found my self borrowing theirs over my wife's iPad Air 2. The size is perfect if you are on the move as much as we are. I am working on my MBA and take it every weekend to my kids swim meets to keep up on my online lectures and discussions. For my needs of surfing, reading and school work, the iPad mini 2 is perfect. The price is great too.
