    I'd give it a 4.5* because it's pretty pricy for such a small tech item but it's fast and powerful. So far so good.

    The iPad mini is great for its portability. The screen resolution is nice and it feels more responsive than my IPhone 12 Max Pro. I do however believe it’s over priced and the memory options are a bit of a joke. I use the iPad mini for reading mostly and while traveling.

    I love the mini and have been waiting for this refresh. It is my go to for note taking and e-reading, with the power to do so much more. Do yourself a favor and get the 256GB storage option, Apple Pencil and case.

    Works like a champion. I should have bought this sooner. I actually use this more often than the IPad Air 5th Gen due to its more manageable size. It’s been working perfectly so far.

    Lots of memory and easy to use with just a few glitches. Lightweight and good companion to other Apple devices. This is an updated Model of my old one. A few new features such as an easier turn on.

    This device is great . Perfect size for me (I’m a wedding singer) because I can have it on stage and not have it be in the way. Very easy to maneuver.

    Amazing device! It is fluid and runs smoothly. I recommend more memory if you do not have a iCloud storage account. Def worth the price.

    1. I preorder the purple mini after cancelling the pink mini preorder. I will say in hindsight, I do some what regret buying the purple because the purple isn't quite as vibrant or colorful as advertised and in comparison to the IPad Air 4's color options. If you are trying to decide based on color, the colors in real life are pretty muted and or darker than shown in pictures/video. 2. I preorder the 256 gb Purple IPad Mini, this is the 6th generation with the modern IPad Pro industrial design. It is 8.3" across and while the foot print of the mini is smaller than the previos mini, it is a bit bigger. The previos mini (IPad Mini 5th gen) was a 7.9" screen with the large bezel, classic IPad design and now with the new mini, it is 8.3" with smaller all around bezels. The mini is very light and in a way a bit unusual. I have the IPhone 13 pro max, but I feel that while objectively the mini IS bigger, it makes me feel it is smaller. The mini is also very lightweight and prefect for carrying around the house or on the go. In comparison to the Mini's older siblings, I feel it is a very specialized/ niche product. The Mini is a smaller and a bit more beefier Air 4. This Mini has the A15 chip that is also on the IPhone 13 series (Note it is NOT as "strong" as the 13's chip) whereas the Air 4 has the A14 chip. HOWEVER, I really recommend not playing the spec game towards the AIr and Mini. The Air is just as capable (and larger) than the Mini. If you are a pilot of sorts, I think you are already aware of the uses of the mini. As well as those who uses Minis to control drones. If you are someone who needs ultra portability and something powerful, bigger than the IPhone Max's, but not over 10"+ and need to do something in quick bursts or just want to consume media on a decently sized screen: This IPad Mini is for you. I really don't recommend the Mini to those who are either: A student- You need something bigger in all honesty to take notes. This is more like a notepad vs a regular sized piece of paper. The more room the better. Artists- This is more of a toss up. If the size fits for you then that's good, but I'd suggest a bigger canvas Super Pro users- Unless you REALLY like the size or cannot currently afford a bigger IPad, then go for it. I suggest getting an older gen IPad Pro or getting the Air or even maybe the IPad Generation series just for the size and other bells and whistles the Mini doesn't have. There are some issues I have with the mini: The scrolling issue, I honestly cannot tell if it's just my eyes or the screen being weird or both. However it is NOT a SUPER MAJOR issue. Apparently it's a problem within 60hrz displays. However, I still think Apple should do something more than saying it's fine. The scaling is very odd. Apple went with a 3:2 scale this time and it's honestly looks rather weird. The icons and text looks way too small and I had to but on larger icons and text on this device. The storage. It is 2021, I find it laughable and rather annoying how Apple will charge over 400+ dollars for their IPads to STILL be at a 64gb starting compacity. People (usually) don't buy IPads every year, they keep them far longer than phones. It should be AT LEAST 128gb starting. If they don't want it to hurt the Pro's, up the storage on there too. Also I forgot to mention this, IPad's even with cellular are not good alternatives for a regular phone. You can't make phone calls unless you work around it. I think this is definitely more so a companion device. The Mini is definitely a good device IF you know what you're buying it for. I really like it for reading books and watching videos on youtube. In a pinch it's good for quick notes and doodles and fits in my kitchen when I need to see the recipe or listen to something. However, It's an expensive device just to do those simple things. I highly suggest thinking of the reasons of why you want the Mini and see if fullfils your wants and needs in comparison to the other IPad's and tablets out there. It's a good device, but can be misunderstood.

    I love this iPad. It is perfect for grabbing it quick and doing something, watching a quick video or letting my granddaughter watch her videos on it. I do think the base price is kinda high but I got it on sale.

    Convenient, easy to use and easy to carry due to its small size. Reading has never been easier! And it’s battery lasts long enough not to warrant me carrying the charger around all day!

    The iPad mini is a perfect size to carry around with me when I don't want to carry my iPad Pro. I usually use in the evenings for reading or drawing fun with my iPad pencil. It fits nicely into my backpack and is pretty light.
