    I upgraded my Mini 6 to the 7 because I needed more storage. The upgrade to the better chip is great as well. Even though I have a 13" iPad Pro, this is the iPad I use most because the smaller form factor is great!

    Enjoying my new mini iPad…very easy to use but I especially love the size…fits perfectly in my crossbody purse if I need to bring it with me. This is my second mini that I’ve owned. Would highly recommend.

    The iPad Mini os definitely the best sized ipad, if i go back to the older ones that i have (like the 10.2,) they feel absolutely massive and really clunky.

    The Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro chip) Wi-Fi 128GB is awesome. It is blazingly fast! The cameras take incredible photos and the screen resolution is amazing. It was very easy to transfer everything from an older iPad mini to this new one. Best Buy had a great sale on iPads during the holiday season which made this an even better deal.

    Perfect size , fits easily into my Atom 8L Sling. Awesome for reading,and watching videos. Paired it with a Zugu case instead of the Apple folio as it provides better protection for the device.

    I wish Apple hadn’t changed some of the settings.. still trying to adjust. Plus of course is different enough that I need to get a new iPad cover as well as charging cords. It comes with one, but I like having extras. The battery is better than my old iPad which I had for 7+ years, but not as much as I expected

    I have an iPad Pro 13", but I needed something smaller for teaching so I can use it with one hand and this was perfect for my needs.

    Quite the mighty mouse, this tablette offers a beautiful screen and more than adequate sound. I use it in lieu of the bigger, heavier, older iPad I bought a few years ago -- primarily for reading. The mini offers the usual seamless Apple app integration.

    Very useful for me as I use for zoom daily etc. My only regret is I still do not have my Apple Pencil which I paid . Never got notified it is there. I happened to chat last night with Best Buy and was told it is there???! Shock to find no notification as I been waiting as I need it daily .
