    I'll take an iPad over a Galaxy Tablet Any Day

    I actually bought this at Best Buy at the end of July 2017 at a Black Friday in July Sale - plus I traded in a Samsung Tablet to get a bigger discount. After owning a couple of other Apple products and seeing how reliable they are, as well as Apple's customer support has always been a positive experience, I knew that buying this iPad Mini 4 was a good choice. Even though I am an Android phone user, I prefer to keep my music on a separate device. I prefer Apple over Android when it comes to my music and entertainment. I have an iPod Touch from about 2010 (and it still works), and I used that device a few times a week, especially to listen to music during a long commute. But after a few years, the battery would not hold a charge anymore and it needed to be plugged in constantly. I was considering getting another iPod touch, but the strange thing is Apple's pricing - for a while, the 128 GB iPod touch was the same price as the iPad Mini 4 128 GB - $399. That didn't make any sense, at all. Apple has since dropped the price of this iPod touch to $299 sometime later in 2017. It was a no-brainer decision here - I went for the iPad Mini 4. Build quality is great, something I know Apple is known for. The display is really incredible, The camera is pretty good, not the best, I won't split hairs, I know many people out there who will go into details about the camera, but it's good for casual or everyday pics. If people want a better camera then they can move up to one of the iPad Pro models or use their phones, as I would use my LG phone to get better pics. I am not a gamer, so even though I have several games on the IPM4 that are more mainstream and not the high-level or high-intensity games that people use to review performance - it works great for me. I realize 2GB of RAM is not the best, would have been great to see it bump up to at least 3GB. The one complaint - I wish the battery life was better. Now I bring the iPad Mini 4 when commuting, obviously a big upgrade from the iPod Touch, but much more portable than the larger iPad (I also own an iPad 3 with the 9.7" screen, which has stopped receiving updates around Oct 2016, but still works, it's just slowed down). For those of us who have phones with displays that are not mega-colossal it's great to have the iPad Mini 4 around, to use as a 2nd device, especially to use the Wi-Fi HotSpot feature. Per the title of this review, it's obvious that I don't like Galaxy Tablets. And I hope that the person/party responsible for posting my review will allow me to be honest but critical of Samsung based on my experience - and these additional reasons are relevant as to why I chose to come back to Apple. I used to own a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4, got it for Christmas a few years back. Great tablet, loved it - had a beautiful display, was definitely fast enough, and I wanted to give it a try. But the issue with this Galaxy Tablet is that it started on KitKat, and Samsung never offered any update for the tablet past or beyond KitKat, not even to Lollipop. When I contacted Samsung's customer support earlier this year in 2017, both via online chat on the computer as well as calling phone support, I was told multiple times by Samsung technical support representatives that there would be an update for the Galaxy Tab Pro. This update was going to happen later on in the 2017 year, but all the reps that I communicated with could not give me a timeframe as to when this update would happen. Bottom line, Samsung threw us Tab Pro owners under the bus, by not offering an update to this tablet, and not only that, I was lied to multiple times by Samsung Customer reps. After doing some research I realized there were other ways to perform an update to the Galaxy Tablet by utilizing custom ROMs, but I didn't want to mess around with that. In Comparison -- the iPad 3 that I still have from 2012, I was able to update it for 4 years, from IOS 5.1 all the way till 9.3.5 . From my experience, there's a big difference between Apple and Samsung. Apple stands behind their products. Samsung on the other hand, from what I experienced is not worth my time or money anymore. I decided to use the Trade in Value for the Galaxy Tablet towards the purchase of the iPad Mini 4. I tried Samsung's Android Tablet, and the tablet itself was great, but I don't deal with companies like Samsung who not only don't support their customers but also lie to them. I realize there are other Android Tablets out there, and i would like to try another Android Tablet at some point, but for now I am sticking with Apple and the iPad Mini 4, and my non-Samsung Android phone.
