    Super light, and I love that the magnets mean that cases can come right off. I use it to read, so I appreciate being able to easily take a case off to hold just the iPad. I ordered online and picked up in store. Super easy process!

    It’s been great so far. Easy to use one handed. I mostly use it for reading. Great to play games, sad that I had to buy the new Apple Pencil pro for it but wanted that extra use. Traded in my iPad Air 4

    It's a good replacement for the old i-pad mini. It works like we expected. No bad surprises, and the color and clarity on the picture is better than the previous one. I'm happy with it. And it's purple! What more could you ask for?

    I like the compactness of the size. Very comfortable to handle and purse wise. I also like the split screen, writing on notes. I feel all my valuables are in one place.

    iPad mini pro

    Seriously, it’s like Apple packed a powerhouse into a tiny 8.3-inch tablet that weighs next to nothing (0.65 pounds). The A17 Pro chip and 8GB of RAM make everything smooth, whether I’m sketching with the Apple Pencil Pro (love that hover feature), gaming on titles like Genshin Impact at 60fps, or multitasking with a bunch of apps. The Liquid Retina display looks vibrant, great for watching shows or drawing on the go. It fits in my pocket, works with a Magic Keyboard Folio for typing, and has 5G and USB-C for staying connected. Battery lasts a solid 10+ hours, and it charges fast. Downsides? No OLED yet, and the 128GB base storage might fill up quick if you’re heavy on photos or videos; I would recommend the 250 GB. it’s a killer deal for the power. This thing’s perfect for work, creativity, or just chilling—easily the best compact tablet out there. 5 stars!

    The iPad Mini is in my opinion the best iPad offered. The screen is big enough for anything I need and small enough to fit in my hands with ease. This iPad specifically has all the latest software and chips in it so it’s super quick and operates seamlessly with my phone. Would definitely recommend this to anyone that’s on the fence about buying this or a regular iPad.

    Good ipad, love the AI features, works very good for note taking on the regular apple notes. Some apps like good notes do cost 30$ bucks tho but still work fine

    The iPad mini 7 is a versatile device that I think more people should consider. It is a book sized companion that provides a layer of separation from more demanding tech. I use it everyday for games, podcasts, reading and more.

    I wore out my five year old iPad mini that I bought from Best Buy. I ordered a new one (Man! Prices have gone up!) and went to pick it up at the store. I had neglected to make an appointment with the Geek Squad to transfer info but, very fortunately, they had had a cancellation. Jake was a great help, even getting my 5 year old iPad’s screen to come back on!

    My favorite little tablet.

    I am absolutely obsessed with this iPad mini!! I use it every 10-20 mins I have of free time to help me complete and keep up with my homework. And I love to be able to take notes like I’ve never done before. The ability to change the notes to my liking and creating a professional version of my notes to be confident enough to show everyone. I’ve always been too scared to help others or show my notes because my hand writing is a little sloppy, but with the tablet you can read each word and understand each point easily.

    My toddler loves this iPad. It's small and very lite weight. It was easy to set up and she is able to navigate it herself. Great picture, parental controls, and screen time monitoring right from my phone. I highly recommend this one.
