    Love iPads and this mini is no different. Great size as we got it for reading ebooks. Of course, it does all of the other things just as well as a larger iPad but do note that this has no Face ID as there is no front facing camera and uses Touch ID on the top power button. The weight is less than an iphone12 pro for reference. A great throw it in your purse or beach bag size.

    I've had every iPad Apple makes, iPad, Air, Pro, and now the new mini 6. This my favorite of them all. I have a MacBook, and this is the perfect companion. I use it for so many things, and it's very powerful. I can take this with me when I don't want or need to take my MacBook.

    I love my new iPad mini. I chose purple and while I wish it was more of a lilac color (can look gray at times) I still adore it! The device is light and small enough to carry around and the screen is big enough to read books/articles and stream your favorite movies and tv shows. I'm obsessed.

    The perfect portable device…bar none.

    The iPad mini 6 is an amazing little device. It’s just the perfect size, speakers sound great, and I love that I can hold it in one hand. To me, the regular sized iPad is just too big. If I’m gonna use something that big, I’d rather just use a laptop or even a desktop. I waited until Otterbox released a Defender Pro case for this bad boy. It took a few months, but it was worth the wait. Now I can throw my iPad mini 6 into my backpack and not worry about ever possibly damaging it. Oh, and for the record, I think the Starlight color is the best! Worth every penny!

    I have been waiting for the ipad mini 7 to come out and it doesnt look like they will release a new version until the fall of 2024. So I got sick of waiting and just ran to pick up the Ipad Mini 6 and I am truly upset I have waited so long. It is the best for Journaling, checking emails and shopping. You can do much more like editing but I have other stronger products for that but for portability, it really makes it a winner! Love the size and cant wait for the 7 to come out.

    So glad I purchased this device from Best Buy for the best bargain. It’s in perfect condition and came right in time for Christmas. This is the second iPad mini I’ve purchased this year, the first for myself and the latter for my kids. It’s the perfect size and capacity for their needs and mine. Also glad I can always visit the Geek Squad or Genius Bar if I have any questions or need help with anything!

    Excelent battery life, great display and perfect size for my 20 month old. With the BF discount this was an excellent deal. Samsung or others dont have a nice tablet at this size. I also found the perfect case!
