Customer Ratings & Reviews

Upgraded for myself from iPad 2 and love it. Perfect size to slip in purse and I love the added upgraded feature like the touch unlock. Am a loyal iPad/iPhone/apple buyer. Best buy as always was dependable and got it here in promised amount of time.

I purchased this for my mother who is in her late 70's and an invalid. She loves it. The iPad is far more intuitive than other tablets she has tried and the speed is much faster.

I love apple and the durability/simplicity of their products. The finger scanner looks to be a nice security feature not sure yet if its worth $150 more but it is a great apple device.

After owning the iPad, gen 2, I felt i needed the smaller version for ease of portability. The iPad Mini 3 fit the bill perfectly. I looked at other mini pads but the 8 inch size for me was the best combination of screen size and portability. The new fingerprint ID is really convenient and is, I believe, the wave of the future for all mobile devices for ease of access and upgraded security. Don't forget to put some type of identifying number to call if lost, possibly as the screen saver. I was somewhat irritated with apple for the minor upgrade to the mini while the iPad got a true upgrade for the same upgrade price of $100. However, when BB put on sale it made the choice slightly easier. Functionality, of the mini is excellent, with the new integration aspects of iOS 8 that allow me to share so much with my other mobile devices, including reading a book with my mini then picking up where I left off with my iPhone when my mini is not around. While clunky, you can have a mini and a droid phone with some integration, but you have to be a geek level savant to really share. I have some friends that have learned to live in both cultures, apple and droid. Overall, i am really enjoying my mini and am able to use it more than the regular pad while out and about.

ipad has worked well for my sons school work. Small enough but not to large. Definitely buy a case. It has been dropped several times with case, and still works great.

For an ipad, I think a storage of 32gb or higher is necessary. I got this in a flash sale. I know a new generation is coming but I'm satisfied with this one.

Beautiful sharp display, so easy to use and love the versatility of it. From surfing the web, playing games, and ease of use great product.

IPads in general are great tablets. Currently own a iPad 3 and I didn't find much difference between the two to justify keeping. Yes there are new colors and of course the fingerprint reader, but the 3 has the enhanced retina. Great product, just not worth the additional investment.

Traded in my old origin iPad for the gold mini. Love the mini can take it anywhere.

I just switched to Apple. I love my mini. Perfect size! Don't miss my Samsung

I bought this iPad mini to replace my iPad mini 2 16GB that we are giving to our daughter and we wanted more storage. Like the iPad mini 2, this is a fantastic product and we are very happy with it. In hindsight, we probably should have purchased the 128GB as we have several movies from Disney already downloaded and will probably get more.

This is a great product. Very easy to use would recommend.

I traded a fullsize iPad for the iPad mini 2 and I couldn't be happier. It fits just about anywhere and it easy to take with me. The screen is amazingly clear as well.

Easy to navigate. Great gift idea. Really good item.

It was very handy and convenient to carry around..

I returned and exchange with air 2... Two reasons 100$ difference am getting A8 + M8 motion + bigger screen and antiglare screen. Mini is discomfort when you reading or browsing

bought it for wife as mohters day gift. there is not much difference between this and ipad mini 2 other than finger print scanner. So, if you are on a budget,,get mini2...otherwise this will help you earn some bonus points with whoever you purchasing it for.

This iPad is lightweight, small and compact. Very easy to use.

I got it based on the reviews and I got exactly what I was looking for. Great product!

Still learning all th great features - so far it's been great.
