    iPad is the only way to go. We've tried other types of tablets but iPad is the easiest to use, most reliable, and longest lasting.

    I have been using a 15.6” laptop and just added the iPad mini. Comparing with other tablets, the size of this device is very good for reading -- even editing the files (with/ without the stylus: with the proper apps) – and carrying around.

    My daughter is a high school civics teacher. She required a larger capacity iPad for fast research and classroom presentations, using multimedia. The iPad mini gives her sufficient capability in a smaller size than the regular iPad.

    An awesome tablet for an awesome price. This tablet has been so easy to use and relatively fast for an older generation Apple product.

    I am not very tech saavy, but this was easy to set up. However, I wish I had got one with greater space b/c my son has already used up 32 g. I recommend getting the highest amount of storage you can afford when getting a tablet.

    I am a Droid person and have a Samsung Tab 4 which I am constantly on. My Nephews in Texas are Apple people so in order to Face Time with them I purchased the iPad Mini. I am learning how to use iPad so that I can do more on it.

    Was a gift for daughter. She is thriled with it. Everything was easy to set up, and no hassles. Did not take hours to have it up a running. We are thrilled with this new addition to our electronic devices. It was a very Merry Christmas!

    This is perfect for the non techies out there that want to surf the Internet, email, play games, and watch movies. Apple makes "mobile media" very user friendly. Also the mini 2 is exactly like the mini 3 without the Touch ID feature.
