    iPad Mini Still Reigns Supreme

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I had the original mini when it was first released years ago and absolutely loved it. After a few years I moved on to different devices including the more recent iPad Pro 11” model. Ultimately, I wanted to go back to the mini due to its form factor and updated design. While I know it’s been out for some time (with an update likely around the corner), this device still has enough power to do any and all tasks required of an iPads current capabilities for most users. What it excels at most is content consumption, which I feel was the original intent of the iPad to begin with.

    I’ve been waiting a long time for Apple to come out with a new iPad Mini. I use my iPad for reading. I find it’s just the right size and not to heavy to hold for a long time. It’s much faster than it’s predecessor and has very good sound. I do use it occasionally for watching YouTube and some texting. It’s just the right size. Not to big and not to small. Perfect for my needs. Highly recommend depending on what you want to use it for.

    Super convenient to take anywhere. I love the fact that it fits in my crossbody sling. It similar to having a kindle book but way better!! If you love to read this is your go to iPad mini. No regrets at all. All my friends wished they had a iPad like mine instead of the huge ones .. where they have hard time bringing it everywhere.

    Bought this tablet as a mobile complement to my 2021 12.9 Pro and it is excellent. Great performance and a nice looking display. 5G performance on T-Mobile here in Seattle is excellent - 755Mbps down, 81Mbps up. Really happy with this purchase, no disappointments at all.

    It’s a great size for international travel. Big enough to read books on, small enough to easily stow in a backpack or handbag. The ability to add a SIM card is helpful in case you lose your phone. You can at least use it for recovery even if you don’t have WiFi.

    The iPad mini 6th generation is an incredible device. The small form factor is ideal for consuming media on the go and the ability to add a cellular plan is a must.

    This model replaced by 10.2 inch ninth GEN iPad that I used for flying airplanes. I needed something smaller and wanted to go with something that was in the new generation so when these went on sale it was a no-brainer this was my choice. I’m extremely happy with the performance and the overall look of this product 10 out of 10 would recommend.

    Great sized iPad for travel. Easily fits in your bag and doesn’t way you down. I like for travel because it doesn’t use your phone battery plus its larger screen is easier to read. Like all Apple products, easy to set up and go. Just what I wanted.

    This is my 4th iPad mini and they just keep getting better. I love the smaller size because I drop it in my purse and take it with me. Was extremely easy to transfer all my info from my last iPad. Also, got it from Best Buy for a great price

    The Best iPad

    I bought an iPad Pro 11 a couple years ago thinking it would change my life, and...I just never used it. It was too bulky for my liking and if I want that experience I will use my Macbook. Then I was checking out iPads at Best Buy and I realized the overlooked iPad, the Mini, was the one for me. I take it everywhere and it is perfect for my use, that 90% of people use their iPads for, consuming content. You can use it one handed and it is easy to use and not too bulky, which I realized was the problem with my pro. I know in todays world of electronics bigger is considered better but in this case, the iPad Mini was the perfect choice for me.

    Great Response/Good Display/Miss the Home Button

    Originally purchased for my wife to replace her aging iPad Mini 5. However, she hated the new design with the sharper edges and the swipe up instead of the home button. Replaced it with an iPad 10.2 which she loves and I use this now and Love it! Very comfortable to hold, easily fits my BIG hands and it responds very well. Took a bit to get used to the swipe up vs home button. My only issue with it is, it's a pain in the neck trying to access the currently running apps screen. It requires a slow swipe up from the bottom of the screen and that works about 10% of the time. Beyond that, responsiveness, features, and overall feeling is great!

    Still working on the subtle differences between this iPad and my prior iPad Pro. Smaller in size makes it easier to carry. Speed is nice.

    Use it everyday. The size makes it convenient Don't really have anything negitive to say. I got the Wi-Fi + Cellular and it's has no problems getting a signal to use on the go. I have an iPad 12.9 pro and hardly gets used because this one's just so much easier to carry around and use.

    iPad mini is my favorite, I have one but it’s considered vintage , so while searching online I came across Best Buy sale and it was an amazing $100 off , not anywhere else. I went and ordered it and had to wait almost a week but well worth it, service was great and it arrived on the day said, no delay. I like the smaller size , I use it for work and take it everywhere
