    iPad mini was a good quality.

    I like iPad mini because it’s so easy to use. The iPad mini 4 is part of a dying breed of tablets. As phones become ginormous an 8 inch tablet doesn't make as much sense to many people anymore. However, if your phone is five to six inches or smaller an 8 inch tablet still serves a good purpose. It is bigger and more enjoyable to watch movies and play games on, and can still complement your cellular phone. Plus, the iPad mini 4 is considerably more portable than the regular sized iPad which isn't huge but is a bit cumbersome to carry with you on a regular basis. If you enjoy reading books in particular on a tablet or e-reader the iPad mini 4 is an excellent size for this purpose. It is incredibly light, while offering a super sharp screen with good color and contrast while having less reflection due to the lamination process used on the Mini 4. It is speedy enough for most everyone's needs, however it is not the fastest or the latest and greatest product from Apple. That being said, if you don't want to spend $600 on Apple's iPad Pro and or would like a tablet that is a bit easier to handle you can't go wrong with the iPad mini 4.

    iPad mini - Right Size and Capacity

    I decided it was time to upgrade from my iPad 4 and I wanted to go with a mini this time around. For me the size is perfect! I love the form factor. I use it around the house all the time and with my Parrot drone. The size makes it great to just throw in my laptop bag or car and take with me. My opinion is I will use my laptop for more task/work oriented things, like writing this review. I use my iPad for Facebook, email, web surfing, home automation, video and photography tasks and a whole lot more. The 128GB is perfect! My previous iPad had 16GB and I was not able to load multiple movies, video and music to take with me. The screen is gorgeous and Netflix looks great on it. The camera does a great job for photos and video. I am so happy to have upgraded and love having the fingerprint sensor on it like my iPhone. I found a nice Solo case for it and I am happy! Bought my wife one for the holidays this season too :-). She loves hers as well. If you have a laptop handy consider the smaller mini. I found I am using this one a lot more just because of its size.

    So pleased with the great price I received on the iPad 4 mini 128 gb. I did get this online pre-Black Friday on Thanksgiving evening. That was somewhat of a challenge because the internet in general could not handle the traffic - I ended up on the phone with Best Buy and the outcome was awesome. I do recommend a thin glass protector for the glass screen, a body protector and a Bluetooth keyboard. I never use my MacBook or Windows laptop at all now. iPad handles everything I need !

    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.

    This Ipad mini 4 is what I have needed. I play a lot of games and this has the memory and speed I needed. I am old and holding my iPhone for long period’s of time caused my hands to cramp. I have told a lot of my friends about this. I was able to set it up myself also. It is a lot easier to operate than my laptop.

    I own an iPhone since 2009 it's my favorite. I own the original iPad for three years once they made the iPhone plus 6 I don't find the need to carry two items so I sold it to a good friend. I was always missing something so I purchased the mini iPad 4 th generation for work and play it has being the best investment so far. I highly recommended to anyone you can't go wrong.

    I love the size. It’s so much easier to hold and use. I wouldn’t want to go back to the Tradional size laptop. I like how the keyboard just pops up. It’s very functional as well, as I can use this easily for my Drone too. I would recomend this to everyone or purchase as a gift for someone. I love this thing!

    I absolutely love Apple products so much that I got my two granddaughters each an IPad mini 4 for Christmas. Set them both up with ease and trust this product 100%! I recommend the IPad mini for anyone at any age!

    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 :)

    It is exactly what I've been waiting for, so it's been worth the wait. The screen is just right. I was a little worried about the size, but I'm already comfortable with it. The clarity and functions are perfect.

    I needed a new tablet to replace my IPad 2 and the mini was a perfect choice. It is small and better for travel but yet large enough to enjoy movies and school research without eye strain.

    Perfect tablet for DJI Mavic Pro and Spark

    I picked up the iPad mini 4 to use with my DJI Mavic Pro and DJI Spark. The DJI GO 4 app was not compatible with my iPad mini 2, so it was time for an upgrade. Prior to this purchase, I was using my iPhone 7 to fly. But, the screen is so tiny on the iPhone 7 that the experience was just horrible. After using the iPad mini 4, I couldn’t be happier. I discovered that I really enjoy using the map view instead of the fpv from the camera. iPad min 4 is perfect and simply awesome for my needs.(photo taken using Mavic and IPad mini 4)
