    The iPad was a gift for my mother at Christmas. Since having received it, I receive thank you text messages for the iPad from my mother about once a week for the iPad gift. For her, it is so much user friendly than the Android tablet she has been using. The android tablet was difficult to navigate and find emails. So if you are finding it difficult to deal with an Android, I highly recommend the Apple iPad as a solution to your confusion. My mother who is slowly learning the ways of the tablet finds it much easier to navigate.

    I love my iPad mini 3. So much smaller and much more lightweight than a bulky laptop. It is the perfect size to sit on my desk to take notes during class. Also, I have been able to complete Microsoft word documents and submit homework. I 100% recommend AppleCare+ with this product.

    Great function and ease of use! We were only disappointed in one thing on this visit and that was the fact no cases for the iPad mini were in stock and the best buy personnel tried to assist but no one could find any. Wife was disappointed and we went elsewhere.

    love it due to smaller footprint. easier to use on the train. has all the same great features on the ipad but smaller and lighter. Little disappointed it doesn't have the same processor as my air 2 but it still does everything with ease.

    This is my second iPad mini, but my first since the first generation model with LTE. I love the form factor but the storage size was a mistake. If you want to use it as a travel device to store videos and songs, get the larger storage size. Other than that, it's got everything you need in a nice package. The LTE service is great and the payment option with the Apple SIM is an excellent addition.

    I love my iphone and now my Ipad! It's like having your Iphone but a big version! I take it with me everywhere. It's fits right in my bag and it's so light. I can use that and save the battery on my phone.
