    Best iPad that Apple has ever made

    This, in my opinion, is the best iPad ever made. The size, the retina display, the 64 bit A7 chip, the blazing speed. Everything is just absolutely amazing. And the way that all of the features come together as one unit in an unmistakably apple-esque fashion is amazing. The only downfall is the price, but hey, it's an apple product and we all loos that you're gonna pay more for the brand. But in my opinion, totally worth the extra cash to get the premium product. Great tablet

    My daughter received the first generation mini for christmas and loved it. She was 8 months old. When our next child came along we decided on a tablet instead. Well, that proved to be a waste. We ended up purchasing this for our youngest daughter. I mean if a child younger than 12 months can figure out how to work the apps with ease that alone says a lot. Both of my girls are able to navigate through various (age appropriate) apps. My now 3 year old knows all her nursery rhymes, how to count to 50, her abc's. She using a drawing app which is great. A problem solving/critical thinking app that really challenges her. What else can I say, my girls are way more tech savvy than I.

    The Best Tablet Hands Down

    I finally traded in my iPad 2 and upgraded to the iPad mini with Retina Display. Everything is great about this iPad and it actually feels and looks better than my iPad 2. I can hold it one handed which is great for reading my books and magazines subscriptions. The portability is outstanding and as is this product overall. If you need a bigger screen you can't go wrong with the iPad air, but for the best general use tablet iPad mini with Retina is the best iPad yet.

    Very light weight and sharp graphics. Very happy I picked this over the standard size iPad. Also happy I didn't waste my money with the 3 since the only difference is the fingerprint scanner

    After owning both a kindle fire HD and Nook HD+, I found this to be an overall superior tablet. Screen resolution, processor speed, battery life and selection of apps all out did the others!

    I bought this as a Christmas present for my wife and she loves it instead of using her computer. It is light weight, quick and boots up in no time. For the price, you can't beat it!

    Using this device as been like going from the iPhone 4s to the iPhone 5. This device is just more portable and easy to handle. The iPad 2 was great but this thing is greater. It did not take long to adjust to the smaller screen and less weight. The only downer is not about the device, it's Apple's lack of accessories with the lightening connector. You have to buy the adapter(s) to convert from the 32 pin connectors used for the older Apple technologies.

    Screen resolution amazing. Apple chip very fast and tablet never locks up as the iOS is rock solid stable. Convenient size and battery life is more than adequate, even with heavy usage.

    The iPad mini 2 is being phased out, but it has been a performer. We use it for reading, browsing the web, and some light entertainment. The newer minis are lighter and faster, but for the price this hit the sweet spot.

    I bought this iPad Mini 2, for my 3yr old son, to upgrade his original iPad Mini. He literally can't put it down for anything. The speed is a definite upgrade, along with the display.

    The iPad has been working great. It's got a good weight and is very easy to hold and to use. For me, it functions as a kind of mini-laptop when I don't need my laptop's full power.

    I had a 1st Gen iPad and I bought this to finally upgrade. I love it. It's a little smaller but it's lighter and fits in my bag easier. If you want an iPad the minis work great.
