Just purchased this for my 6, almost 7 year old daughter. She absolutely loves it. Storage is great, speed is wonderful and ease of use is fantastic. Apple products rock.

The picture on the iPad Mini 2 is excellent. The size is very convenient. Obviously very easy to set up and use. It is easy to change screens and the speed is very good.

Out of all the electronic devices we have owned or currently own in our family, the Apple line, and more specifically to this review, the Ipad mini 2 has been the favorite. You can use it for many different functions, so it is not limited like the younger kids models. It has plenty of storage for games and music, and has not posed any difficulties in accessing the internet. The amount of time it can last on a charge is also pretty respectable (unlike the Kindle). The 32 gb was such a great price before the holidays that I returned the 16gb I had just purchased for another one of my children.

I didn't need the newest iPadmini3, so I got the 2, and was not disappointed. Works just as excellent as all my other Apple products. You will not be disappointed if you buy this even though it has been replaced by a newer model. Unless you need the latest/greatest, save some dollars and get the older model.

The best pro for the iPad mini 2 is the versatility and convenience of having a smaller device, I added a rugged combo Bluetooth keyboard case, which fits in most jacket pockets and is readily accessible in my travels. The retina display gives you amazing picture definition and quality for watching movies. Overall the entire Apple line is great, but my Mini 2 really keeps me connected and entertained. I would also like to thank the Best Buy staff for helping me find this device.

This is only my second Apple product, but I had earlier received a Windows tablet as a gift. After a maddening time of trying to get acclimated I gave up. I decided to get this Ipad Mini on a whim when I saw it on sale. Within a day I had sold my other tablet and when I replace my laptop it will be with an Apple product. My Ipad runs rings around any Windows computer I've ever owned. It's fast, easy to use and meets all the requirements that I had for a tablet. Good job Apple!

I love the iPad mini 2. I got one two years ago for my 3 kids to share. The youngest pretty much took it over and never shared with the older kids. My oldest saved her birthday money a few months ago and bought herself the iPad mini 2, which left my middle child out. He was using mine but that meant I never got to use mine! We took him in a few weeks ago and surprised him with his own iPad mini 2 as his early Christmas gift. The 3 kids and I use our iPads daily, the kids have SO MANY learning and school apps on theirs, I would definitely recommend this iPad!!

Ipad to own

This is the Ipad to own, invest the extra $$$ you would have spent on the IPad Air into more memory, I bought the 32 gig, seems to be the sweet spot without breaking the bank, I find the screen size to be perfect, not cumbersome like its bigger brother, everything looks crisp and beautiful on the Retina display, performance is blazingly fast.

I have an iPad Air 1 and I prefer to use the mini. It is a great size for people with smaller hands and so much lighter and more portable.

I love my iPad Mini with Retina Display. The images on the screen are crisp and clear, and the iPad mini functions pretty much like my iPhone - so I didn't have to learn a bunch of new stuff to use the iPad. I play games, check and send emails, browse web pages, read iBooks, and more. I got the 32GB - so it has plenty of room for apps and photos. I wish I had purchased this sooner - but I'm happy now that I have it.

I absolutely love my mini! It is very easy to use. The picture and sound are very clear. It is just the right size to take with me. Never thought I would be able to use something like this. I have been saving and researching for over a year for just the right electronic device.

Love my iPad mini 2. I got the 32gb, an upgrade from my iPad 2 16gb. Love the fact that it's smaller and lighter so I can take it with me on long journeys even tho I do have an iPod 5th generation. The resolution is way better too. But I got the mini mainly cuz of the storage capacity. And the price was excellent, thank you bestbuy. Now I can have as many books and movies as I want. A Great purchase!

Does what an iPad normally does and feels lighter. Good battery life, display, camera is alright, and works well with latest iOS updates. Wondering how it will perform with the new iOS 9 but since Apple is going to continue selling the iPad mini 2 with the release of the iPad mini 4, don't think it will be too bad.
Also makes good paper weight as well. Haven't tried bending it since I don't have a bender bot at my disposal unfortunately. So can't test that. Hear it will blend tho.

This thing is amazing. I never thought I'd buy an iPad but when the mini with retina screen was finally released I ran to the store to order it. The mini is more sturdy than the air, the screen uses even smaller pixels than the air, same resolution and pixel count as the air, more portable than the air, all the same parts inside, and $100 less than the air! It's the perfect iPad. The device is very nicely designed. I don't want to hide its good looks with an ugly case so I just got the apple Smart Cover. Outstanding battery life. Get the mini with retina and you'll save $100 versus iPad air or just put the money towards more storage like I did. Loaded it with music, movies, and games for a flight from CA to NY and got bored of watching movies, the battery almost lasts too long! I hardly use my laptops or iPhone anymore. Seems expensive but it's worth it. I get mad when I have to use a non-retina device now!

Loving the New Mini

Love the light new mini ipad. I have two kids and work full time. This is best for both of worlds (home and work). The kids get all their apps to keep them busy when we are out and about and I can work and check emails, fine tune presentations etc. The best part is that it fits in my purse or briefcase without the added weight of a full ipad. This is one of my better electronic purchases.

Last year I traded in an old iPad and because of some offers I switched to a Samsung tablet from an iPad, what a mistake! After 8 months of frustration with the Samsung tablet I traded it in and went back to the iPad and chose the 32gb Mini 2 and I love it!
I will never switch again, I am hooked on Apple, love the easy out of the box experience, longer battery life and it actually works as intended!!
If you have one don't ever switch, if you are thinking about getting on DO IT!
