Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the iPad mini 3 Wi-Fi 16GB's size, ease of use, and camera quality, with many praising its compact form factor and user-friendly interface. The lightweight design and impressive battery life also received significant praise. However, customers are negative about the limited storage capacity of the 16GB model, citing concerns about insufficient space for apps and files. While some appreciated features like Touch ID and the display, the small storage option was a recurring point of concern.

    My Grandson Loves His iPad 3 Mini

    My 14-year old grandson and 12-year old granddaughter both have iPads, so when their 8-year old brother asked for an iPad 3 Mini it only seemed reasonable for Santa to fulfill his request. The shocked look on his face when he opened the box and found his new Mini was priceless. Since he was already familiar with using an iPad, he made his new toy sing immediately.

    I have had the regular iPad for 3 years and found it to be heavy at times. iPad mini combines the best features of both the iPad and iPhone.

    Has TouchID for added security. Works great for what I wanted... games, reading and internet browsing. Very similar to the iPad mini 2.

    Cracked the 2nd week....

    Purchased a certified Geek Squad open box and did not get the coverage4 which cost over half the price of the actual iPad mini 3. The second week I had it in a ZAGG protective case only to find that a crack from the circle button to the side of the iPad was present. It was not dropped or mishandled and yet it was cracked. I brought it in and they said it was too bad I didn't have the protection plan and that it probably be best I purchase a new one as the cost to repair the screen with the Geek Squad would cost almost as much as a new one. Unbelievable. What a incredible disappointing experience. It hurt even more since this was going to be a gift for my nonverbal autistic son to use as a voice output device.
