    I reviewed the white version of the product for myself, but here I will note that I loved it so much I purchased one for my 65-yr-old mother for Christmas. So far, she likes it very much - especially Facetime.

    Another great addition to our Apple family. Our daughter switched from her Kindle Hd and is super happy with her new gadget and the integration/ communication among all our devices like family sharing.

    The iPad is ubiquitous and for good reason: it's easy to use, has a great app selection and the screen looks awesome. Unfortunately, one of the main limitations of iOS is that it doesn’t offer any methods for easily swapping between users on the same device. There were rumblings that this might change in iOS 8, but it didn’t happen. There’s no telling if Apple will decide to add multi-account options in the future, but right now it doesn’t seem likely. Android (Samsung, Amazon Kindle, etc.) and Microsoft (Surface) offer this facility, but with Apple, you realistically only have no options for sharing other than to purchase a second tablet. That will keep Apple’s shareholders happy, but cost you more. Sadly, for me, as I can't afford a second tablet, this limitation prevents me from using my new iPad as a supplement to home-schooling my kids. Good thing that Amazon has a Kindle specifically designed for kids...

    I have always been reticent when deciding on Apple's various products due to thier high prices but when Best Buy ran the sale for the mini 2 I couldn't resist. It was almost $200 cheaper then the newest mini 4! While the mini 2 is not the newest product it so closely matches the 4, it is definitely not worth 200$ more. Great bang for the buck. Of course the product is rock solid and Best Buy is a great place to purchase. Thanks for such a great sale.

    This pad is the perfect size. It's plenty big to do all the necessary functions, but not too big to haul around. The Retina display is amazing...wouldn't buy one without it! Photos and videos are crystal clear. Fast on the internet. Definitely recommend this product!

    iPad Mini is the perfect size. Big enough to see, yet small enough to tote around. I'm very happy with the retina screen.
