    We never see Apple go on sale yet this iPad mini 4 cost us only $299. Small, light, bright, fast, easy to carry. 128 gig. I love my iPad Pro but this little one is so nice to carry. Love it and LOVED the price. If It goes on sale again I'm buying more for family.

    Very light weight, thin profile, and 128 gb makes this mini a winner. Easy to hold for smaller hands and all the features necessary.

    Outstanding tablet for every tech level

    I have owned 2 previous tablets (both Apple products). The iPad Mini 4 is very powerful. It functions seamlessly as I frequently multi-task. Music, email, & social media are some of features this tablet excels with (the screen is crisp & lush). The touch id is a time saver (and is accurate). The iPad 4 is extremely lightweight (but it feels plenty sturdy). I was able to land mine as Best Buy had marked it down $100 (a no-brainer really :)

    I have been using the iPad Mini for 3 years now. Upgraded to the Mini4 this year. Love having more storage. I have always thought that the regular size iPad is too big. The mini is light, easy to handle, and is the correct size to read. The iPads are more like big phones, not work stations. There for surfing the web, online browsing, and reading and some work. The Mini is the way to go. Better price and easier to use. Definitely reccommend, pairs well with the iPhone.

    Enjoyable but with flaws

    Overall I like the iPad mini. It's lightweight and ergonomic, I can comfortably type with two hands in portrait mode, which is not possible with the regular iPad. I haven't noticed any performance issues either, it's been responsive and stutter free in use. The iPad mini is more than just a blown up phone. Unlike smartphones, it typically allows you to access full versions of websites which for me makes web browsing much more enjoyable. Battery life is good as well. The iPad mini does have flaws though. When watching Netflix I noticed that the display will dim and brighten repeatedly. I don't have auto brightness on, apparently it's a bug that's been with the iPad for years and only goes away if you turn on a setting called 'assistive touch,' which then leaves a gray circle somewhere on the screen that you have to try and hide somewhere in the letterboxing. I haven't noticed this issue with youtube, but I did with youtube TV. Also, although I prefer the display ratio of the iPad for web browsing, when watching a video that is widescreen, about half the display is wasted with black bars. The display aside from that is nice, but it's definitely no OLED. The other issue I have is that when multitasking with 2 apps, you can only split the display vertically. That's fine in landscape mode, but in portrait mode you're left with a display area about 2 inches wide and 7 inches long. It's really weird that apple still hasn't better implemented this feature. Overall though the iPad mini is a good tablet, and it's become the device I use most both at home or on the go.

    I’ve always loved the size and weight of the iPad mini. It’s the tablet I take with me to use when away from home. I have a 9.7 inch iPad 3 but it’s used as a desktop tablet since it’s heavy and I have to use a large backpack to carry it when using it away from home. The mini 4 is beautiful tablet all around and a great upgrade from my first iPad mini. The screen is leaps and bounds better on the mini 4. It’s fast compared to my old iPad and my aging iPhone 5s. I chose the mini over the 2017 iPad because it has more storage and was on sale for cheaper than the cheapest 2017 iPad. The screen size is good for watching videos. The speaker sound is not very good. I have to turn up the volume and it’s still hard to hear sometimes. I use headphones when I don’t want to disturb others and use Bluetooth speakers when I’m at home. Battery life is slightly less than my old mini about 9 hours vs 12 hours and it might be because of updating to iOS 11 or maybe this has more power, not sure. This is not a major problem. I’m still figuring out all of the updated features. I’m really enjoying it.

    I totally love the iPad mini4 for its compact design,yet generous screen for viewing movies or webpages. I don’t miss the full-size screen of the bigger iPads. The crisp picture is second to none and I enjoy the memory capacity of 128 gigs. Priced competitively and it weighs next to nothing for one handed carrying. Great device!!!

    Perfect size, great for everything that I need it for. Gorgeous screen, lightweight. I use it for reading the news, reading books, writing, catching up on email & playing with apps. I've been on the fence for a few years about the iPad Mini, but so glad I made the plunge. If you are wondering about getting one...treat yourself!

    The mini iPad is just perfect! It has the right size of memory, physical size, weight and speed to enable me to use this device for a good few years for myself and my son ie. for educational learning games only (these apps takes up a lot of disk space!). I no longer have to struggle with disk space (for now)!

    Love it as a big Apple fan! I wish there were a six star for this product. It's light and the screen is perfect. The photo I took shows the effect of iPad Air with iPad mini4. A huge difference if you need to hold it for a long time reading. And the size of iPad mini 4 is good for you to use it on the train. I would recommend using iPad or mini with stylus to improve productivity. The usefulness of iPad(including mini) depends a lot on great apps. I used to use iPad to read textbook everyday because kindle can't deal with colorful large PDF very well and it's way to heavy to carry textbook around the city. I would say if you need a tool to read PDF and want it to be portable and affordable, iPad mini is better than iPad and better than kindle.

    The iPad Mini 4 is smaller, lighter, and has a 128 GB memory. This iPad will fit in your purse, and you'll be ready to play computer games, listen to a recorded book, or take great photos, at a moments notice.

    I upgraded from the iPad mini 2. The iPad mini 4 is much faster and has a better camera. I mainly use it for reading, checking email and social media. It’s easy to use and light enough to carry in my purse.
