    I love my new iPad Mini! It’s just the right size to be able to carry inside my purse without it being bulky or heavy. I purchased it because I was interested in reading on it and it’s perfect! I wish the purple was a deeper hue as it looks more silver than anything, but either way great buy.

    The iPad mini has been working better than expected! It was refurbished, but so far I have not found any signs of wear or tear. Definitely considering purchasing more with Best Buy.

    I’ve had almost every iPad mini, and this one is the best so far. Holds battery life, screen is bright enough, and it’s light.

    Out with the old and in with the new. It was worth waiting for the upgrade. A early gift to myself for Christmas. The color purple is very pretty. It provides more storage. I use it for my music and other apps. It is easy to carry around. Battery life is great.

    This iPad mini is buy far one of the best purchases I’ve made from Apple. It has just the right amount of screen size to warrant not using my phone in addition to most of the modern features you’d want from a tablet. My only gripe with this one is that in order for me to use an Apple Pencil, I needed to buy the most recent one as it doesn’t allow for older pens and now I’m stuck with 2 old pens that won’t work. I love the performance and the Touch ID feature! Pick one up and give it a try.

    I have owned several iPads and am happy with them. Have wanted a mini for a while for travel. Best Buy had a sale $100 off for $399 price. I like the size, speed and display. One slight con is the battery life seems to be slightly less than the full sized iPads. But other than that I am enjoying this device and reccomend buying it.

    This device is well made with to date electronics and functions. This is my second I pad mini that I have purchased because my first device aged out after seven years. I truly love the features and functionality of this I pad mini with its up to date intelligence. Easy to navigate and carry around.

    Great for reading books, studying/note taking, and consuming media! If you wear medium/large sized gloves you'll have no problem holding it in one hand! It's lightweight, convenient, and portable. If your hands are sensitive to the cold I'd recommend a case as the exterior on the device itself is cool to the touch.

    Great out the box. Works great except some glitches when wanting to close previous app used when switching from horizontal to vertical. I dont need a lot of space but the 40GB of updates is a bit crazy for me, again I dont need a lot of space, but would like to not have that much space eaten up. Overall Good product.

    I love my apple ipad mini A17. I saw that someone call theirs a beast. The name of mind is "Little Beast". I can take this with me in my purse, I have a apple pencil pro to go with this and I used the note keeping feature. What a wonderful way to try to be organized.

    I got my iPad as an open box and it works great. It is also the perfect size as I wanted an Apple product but smaller so I could hold it with ease in my hand for e-reading. It operates fast and has plenty of storage. I do recommend if youre in the market for a smaller tablet.
