    Picked up this Ipad Mini 2 for my daughter, a busy mom of 3. It replaces her Ipad 2 which had long since been claimed by the kids. She loves the Ipad Mini because it is lightweight and its smaller size tucks nicely into her "Mom" bag. She loves having it handy while she waits for the kids after school or practices. Of course, since it is much newer than her former Ipad, it is so much faster - great technology! Overall, it was a great purchase which will live a long life.

    I also have an iPad Air, but find myself using the mini more often because of it's compact size. Great display, camera is easier to use, and books are still quite easy to read. I highly recommend it unless you really have a need for a full size tablet.

    Compact. Takes great pictures. Easy to navigate and set up. It is a bit heavy. If your eyesight is poor I would suggest you get a 9.7 inch i-pad.

    i had an iPad that I traveled with - It was dropped and never worked again. in my search I found the mini and opted to try it and I have not been disappointed. it is a great size for picture taking and for reading. I have taken it on two trips and it worked great - and battery life is great.

    I already had an ipad (which my husband didn't think I needed) but every time I was ready to use it, HE had it! So I decided to get the mini which I love. It is so light weight and fits in my bag so much better than the full size. I was concerned the screen might be too small, but that has not been a problem at all.

    I was looking for a device with good connectivity, ample memory and a good size for travel. This meets my needs and I didn't mind that this was an older model. The price was right with a Best Buy sale. It meets my needs for memory and speed. I can't think of what I am missing for my needs.
