    I had first debated between the iPad mini and the iPad Air but ultimately decided on the mini. It was cheaper and it's perfect size for me. I bring it almost everywhere and can throw it right in my purse and it's lightweight so it doent make my purse to heavy either. If you have the iphone then they can link together as well. It's also great size for little hands if you have kids.

    I had the choice of iPad mini or iPad Air. The Apple Guy was most instrumental in helping me chose. No Pressure. I originally bought the iPad mini just to play games on it. Now I use the Calendar and other features. It is quite handy to have and it fits in my purse. I carry it everywhere with me. Got the 64gb cuz I never want to run out of room.

    The iPad Mini 2 delivers! This ipad is excellent, perfect size and design for easy use. The images re crisp and clear and the A7 processor does the job without skipping a beat. FaceTime allows for my son to see his grandma anytime. Plus, the pre Black Friday deal at best buy offered the best price of the holiday season.

    Bought this iPad Mini to replace a 1st Gen and it is amazing. The screen size is perfect for traveling, but big enough to use in place of a business screen on the go. iTunes purchases sync allowing use across multiple items, making setup a breeze. FaceTime is a nice communication app that utilizes either camera fabulously.

    I have a full size iPad that I do use a lot for work but thought the mini would be easier to carry with me for personal use. When the retina iPad mini was released I took the plunge and couldn't be happier. I use it all the time and even use it for work sometimes over my full size iPad. I have had no problems with it yet.

    I have owned Apple products now for several years including the iPad 2, iPhone 5 and the first generation mini. I sold my first gen mini to get this new one because of the faster processor, retina display and stronger wifi. It has lived up to all the reviews I have read about it. Great product

    This was one purchase that I'd never regretted. I've always used one of my big iPad but since I've switched to the mini it's so much easier to carry around as well as not taking as much room. The picture quality is great as well as the sound and the camera is top notch.

    I traded in my iPad mini (1st generation) for this and boy was it totally worth it. Not only does this new iPad mini retain the things I liked from the old iPad mini (such as the form factor and weight), but it greatly improves on the things that I didn't like about the old iPad mini (such as the slow speed and okay resolution). This new iPad mini simply fills in the gaps of what I didn't like about the old iPad mini. The price is a bit high, I admit, but is totally worth it when you consider things in the long run. The product support from Apple is second to none and the App Store blows other app stores out of the water. Also consider the App Store provides a quality Free App every week and you easily find other daily free apps using a free app a day app. Not only that, the build quality on this thing tells you it can last as long as you want it to. This new iPad mini is simply perfect in every way

    I love this ipad, it is my first apple product and it is supper user friendly. I is light and easy to carry around, with tons of great applications. It fits nice in my purse to use any time I need, reading magazines, using as a daly planer, saving ideas and more.

    Having owned an iPad, I wasn't sure if I needed a "smaller" version to add to my growing collection of electronics. But, this product is the perfect size and weight for reading in bed, carrying to work and especially for travel! I now feel bad for my "big" iPad.

    I didn't need the larger iPad but I wanted retina display. this was what I've been waiting for. size is great for my needs and I get the same picture quality as my iPad. even though it's not as sharp as the iPad 3 gen it's big improvement from the original mini.

    I really enjoy the iPad products. The mini is perfect for adults or kids who appreciate the smaller size. Plus, it affords you the opportunity purchase more GB for less money. No complaints!
