    iPad Mini 3 is incredibly light and thin. This makes it it much more mobile and easier to use than the 10 inch iPad, which is much heavier and thicker. iPad Mini is easier to hold for a long time and only requires one hand to hold.

    This ipad was just the right size for me to see all controls of the remote screen of my Phantom 3 Pro drone. Resolution is great and battery life exceeds my expectations. Although I use the ipad exclusively for drone control, the ATT account enables me to see real time map data. I am very pleased with this purchase.

    Love my mini. Not giving up my Air. I got this one so when I am in the airport I have something small to use. been a godsend for that. Loaded a ton of music on it so when I am asleep on the plane I am not burning my phone battery. Screen is a bit small, so when I get to the hotel I move back to my iPad Air

    The mini is the perfect size for our needs. Easy to use and very compact yet creates feeling of being much larger. The screen size is perfect to watch youtube, etc.

    While away on vacation, the fact that I now have cellular data has allowed me to pay bills, view my magazines on Nextisuue, stay in touch with what's going on at home via connection with Piper, has certainly made this trip fun and brought peace of mind
