    I knew what I was looking for. Sales rep at Village Point Mall helped me decide the size iPad I was looking for & answered my questions without hovering. He was helpful & I appreciated having a respectful & knowledgable sales person. Good job there. Friendly staff too. You should ask me to review the fiasco I encountered buying my iPhone 6 at Shadow Lake mall Best Buy in Sept 2014!! That was one of the worst customer service experience I've ever had. & told my friends never to go to Shadow Lake Best Buy!

    I love the mini. It fits great in my purse and it makes it ideal for travel. The gigs on here is perfect for all the music I have. I will say I have to charge I try Everyday because it doesn't seem to hold a charge like my iPad air. If its not in use after a night of being charged I have gone to use it later and battery had been dead.

    I absolutely love this little jewel...beyond my expectations...definitely a 5-STAR except for the Touch ID fingerprint feature which only works randomly. I purposely added the 365 OFFICE to experience it for a year...if it is utilized and valued I will continue.

    Apple product is reliable. Has high resolution retina display. Great mini portfolio for photography, if that's what your into. Lastly got this on the launch of new mini4 at great discount. Don't reccomend data it's such a BS hassle.
