    I’m a student, and I really like this iPad mini. It’s small, light, and super fast with the new A17 Pro chip. I use it for taking notes, reading, watching videos, and even a bit of gaming — everything runs smoothly. Battery life is good, and it fits easily in my bag, which is perfect for school. If you don’t need a big screen, this is an awesome little tablet for studying and everyday use.

    Got the mini during the President's day sale - $100 off! It's a great little device, and very light. Just wish Best Buy carried appropriate, economical accessories like covers and keyboards. Had to go elsewhere to get one.

    Best purchase ever, it’s the right size and functionality. Love this device and so glad I got it. The average ipad was too big for daily use and reading in my opinion. The phone is too small for reading and interacting but the mini is perfect.

    had to update b/c old one no longer supported so many functions. :( don't like apple's planned obsolescence. lighter weight, thinner, seems to work just fine. of course, needed new headphones and charger. great for travel!

    This is great size for an ipad. I have small hands and I can sit and read comfortably for several hours. Screen is larger than the older minis, a feature that helped me to decide to purchase this iPad.

    I had a iPad mini about six years ago, which I gave up to get the bigger screen on a 10 inch iPad. However, I find that I don’t need the larger one anymore, so I traded it in on the mini. Also to get the higher processor speed, and the apple intelligence.

    Good improvement over the older model. If you like Apple products you will like this. Addition of use of a pen makes a big difference. Going to a USB C now allows me to use all of my chargers, cables etc.
