    The IPad Mini 2 is Almost Identical to the IPad Mini 3! The difference is the Mini 3 has the Touch ID and has a Gold Color option. If you can live without those features, the IPad Mini 2 is the Better Buy!

    The iPad mini has plenty of manueverability and options for a perfect on the go utility. I'm 30 and I love it as much as my 11 year old brother. Games, music, Internet, apps, what more could you ask for?

    Great device with an unbelievably clear display. Love the easily portable size. The case does not protect the screen or offer any shock absorbency, however. I've already cracked the front.

    Top of the line tablet. I really love the voice texting and correction capacity. It's lighter than the others, but still could be a little lighter for reading with one hand.

    I already had an iPad air wifi version, but this makes me use it where there's no wifi. It perfectly matches with T-mobile's "200MB per month for a lifetime" plan.

    Good portable tablet. The screen does get washout when you use it outdoor or near sunlight. You will need an earphone if you want to hear sound play clearly. The speaker is lousy in the mini. Otherwise, it's a good device for indoor usage.

    Bought this iPad Mini (retina) as a Geek Squad Certified unit, and it was like just as new. Great deal for essentially a brand-new product.

    the I-Pad mini 2 is exactly the same as the mini 3 except that it lacks the fingerprint to open, and it is at least $100 and perhaps $200 cheaper.

    I use this daily rather than carrying my laptop around. It makes a great portable work station even for microsoft office products.

    This is our 4th ipad in the family. The retina display is a huge improvement over the original ipad mini. Gave the ipad mini to the daughter and mama. Got an upgrade. Awesome device!

    I already had an IPad 2 but it was a bit bulky in a small airplane. This mini works great with a windshield mount and does everything the full size one does. Battery life could be a little better. My IPad 2 has a better battery life.
