    I LOVE the iPad mini 7! The screen size is perfect for one hand and the new screen (way better than 10th gen) and processor will keep it fast for years. The colors are a little muted for my taste, but they’re still cute! The 128gb is plenty for most iPad users and a welcome upgrade to the previous 64gb which was a little limiting for me especially with movies or shows for the plane.

    I love the size and speed of my new iPad mini! I got it in the light blue. There is nothing I can’t do on it. I paired it with an Apple Pencil and i love how easy the set up was by linking it to my iCloud account. I am able to seamlessly switch from my iPhone to my iPad and back! Love the touch unlock feature.

    Perfect size. Upgraded from a mini 5th gen, and I like it. Got it in blue, and it's... kinda bluish? But it's fine. I use it for drawing, and some light gaming, and it works well. Im not an ipad power user, so I don't expect extreme performance. I just close my apps regularly, and mosey about. I also put a matte screen protector on it for drawing, and the screen still looks great.I got the wifi only option, which I kind of still feel crunchy about, but honestly, the lack of a steady stream of notifications and updates makes it easier to focus on drawing. I just update it at home. I don't need 2 "phones" I'm really not that important. All in all, it does what I need, and I'm happy with it.

    This mini iPad is light, and easy to use. This is the first item I pack when I travel. The battery lasts a long time and charging is very fast. You can do just about everything without having to carry a heavy laptop! I highly recommend it!

    This is a perfect iPad for the every day you specially if you wanna keep it in a purse, a Crossbody just to detach away from your phone with a larger screen and be more productive. I highly recommend this. The price can be a little much wait for it to go on sale which Best Buy puts it $100 off all the time and if you’re not opposed to it consider going open box you would love this product.

    Great portability if you don’t need something too large. But still bigger than a phone, making it convenient for watching videos or reading on the go. It’s faster than my old 10” model. Love the color and it still looks great in the case.

    Best iPad at its truest form for size and portability. Wish Apple would’ve made the bezels smaller and added at least 90hrz but adding the A17Pro chipset is 1000% improvement.

    Apple makes a stellar product that gives more than it takes. The iPad has great battery life and turns itself off when fully charged. The display is second to none. The rich colors and quick pixelation makes the viewing experience more enjoyable.

    The iPad mini is basically what you’d expect from Apple in a tiny package — it feels premium, light, and way more fun to use than you might think just hearing the name. It’s one of those devices where you pick it up and just enjoy holding it.

    Mini 7 is just a Mini 6 + newer system on a chip.

    The iPad Mini 7th Generation is almost identical to the 6th gen, but with one key addition: Apple Intelligence. If you’re into note-taking, reading, and writing with the Apple Pencil Pro, this is a near-perfect handheld device. It fits comfortably in your hand, making it great for casual use and light web browsing. Just don’t expect it to replace your gaming iPad, its not for that. For pure readers, though, the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature is still the best choice. The e-ink display is unbeatable for long reading sessions. I grabbed mine with a price-match and a trade in my base model Mini 6. If you already own a 6th gen and it’s running smoothly, you’re probably fine sticking with it unless you really need Apple Intelligence to take your productivity up a notch in 2025. Otherwise wait for the 8th edition which will have a better screen. I give it 4 stars since I can’t tell much difference over my Mini 6.

    Perfect for you if you: • Want a highly portable device for reading, streaming, travel, or quick note‑taking. • Prefer powerful performance in a compact form for light creative apps or casual gaming. • Plan to use Apple Pencil Pro for sketches or annotations on the go. skip if you want: • A bigger canvas for multitasking, typing, or heavy video/photo editing. • A ProMotion display (120 Hz) for ultra‑smooth scrolling or drawing.

    Absolutely love my mini iPad. Perfect for travel. Easy to study with. I’ve been having it for months now and so far, it works perfectly. Camera is amazing, better than iPhone cameras. I use it to record as well and the quality is good.

    Nice tablet. Replaced an older mini that was stolen at the airport. More power, lighter and faster than the last one. Still a bit of a learning curve on it. Slippery so get a case for it.

    Purchased my iPad Mini from Best Buy and couldn’t be happier. Best Buy made the entire process smooth—from easy online ordering to fast pickup. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure I got the best deal. The iPad Mini itself is incredibly powerful, lightweight, and perfect for everyday use. Thanks to Best Buy’s excellent service and competitive pricing, I’ll definitely be shopping here again. Highly recommend both the product and Best Buy!

    I recently purchased an excellent condition open-box iPad mini from Best Buy, and I'm very pleased with the experience. The device arrived in great condition, with no real signs of prior use. It functions perfectly, and the setup was seamless. The battery life is strong, and the display quality is sharp and vibrant. Overall, it feels like new, and I’m happy with the value I received for the price. A solid 5-star purchase.
