    The wife wanted this to replace her Kindle for reading books . She likes the fact that the screen is of better quality and the brightness has more options. As with all things Apple, this seamlessly integrates with all the other devices. Battery life is excellent and overall build quality is great . It may be slightly heavier than the Kindle but the overall experience more than makes up for it .

    iPad mini pro... an excellent addition to my Apple devices! Much more robust than my previous mini and even previous standard iPads. The new Apple Pro Pencil is remarkable. I love the portability, split screen option and fast update to my iPhone.

    Got this ipad mini for my toddler. It’s very small which makes it portable. The processor is quick. So, you aren’t lagging and such when playing games.

    The Perfect Companion

    As an owner of an iPad Pro from 2018 that never got used and just collected dust because my iPhone and Macbook Pro were more than sufficient for my every day needs, this thing is awesome. With a MacBook Pro I never really could find a purpose for my iPad Pro anymore, it was too big to use as a companion piece, and it didnt provide me anything I didnt already have (except for notetaking with a pencil). So I decided to give my old iPad to my girlfriend because she likes to color on it, and I downsized to this Mini. What a great idea that was! Now I no longer have to decide between using my phone as a companion device and trying to read the small text for prolonged periods of time, or my iPad Pro which was competing too much with my MacBook. The size is perfect to catch up on the news, watch shows, read books, and even sketch notes. It can be easily held with one hand and doesnt feel like its overbearing like the Pro. Unless you absolutely need the better specs of a Pro I would seriously consider this little device. If you are looking to downsize your tablet, then look no further than the iPad Mini a17 Pro.

    The iPad Mini is the perfect blend of power and portability. The screen is sharp, it runs fast, and it’s great for reading, note-taking, and travel. Love the USB-C and Apple Pencil support. Pricey, but worth it if you want a compact, capable tablet.

    I was hesitant to get this iPad at first cause it was so small, it is easily my favorite tablet now. It doesn’t make my hands tired but it has the power I need to run my business.

    My old one was out of date, and couldn’t take certain updates. This one is a breeze to operate. Images are clear and distinct. It’s easy to switch from one screen to another. I like that I can get a full view of my calendar with different colors for different things. Much easier to read. It fits easily into my laptop briefcase outer pocket. I like the touch command features on top for turning the mini on and off as well as my fingerprint passcode. A really neat, cool item for some of us “of a certain age”!

    The M-series chip in this iPad Pro is a total beast! It handles video editing and multitasking with zero lag, and the Tandem OLED display is the best screen I've ever seen on a mobile device. It has completely replaced my laptop for most daily tasks. A premium investment that is worth every penny

    Great tablet. Also perfect as an e-reader. All other tablets fall short. My phones are Androids so I’m not an Apple guy, but when it comes to tablets, this stands above. $100 less than if I purchased via Apple. Easy buying experience via Best Buy online and local store pick-up.

    My wife loves it. This is her 2nd one, which was about 8 years old. Quit the improvement. She got purple that she's in love with. A Christmas present she'll have for a while. Apple has all the buttons and whistles. So if she's happy, then I'm happier. Best Buy had a sale going on, so that made my choise even easyier. Thanks Best Buy.

    I had a little trouble seeing how to use it, but I do like that. You can have phone and messages on this one. My old iPad did not. It’s very compact, which is exactly what I wanted. And very fast!

    I recently traded my IPad Pro 11" for the new Mini A17. I was so impressed with the performance and convenience of the smaller footprint that I bought this one for my wife. Unlike the larger models we take these wherever we go and find no loss in performance or ease of use. I strongly recommend this model for casual users

    I am loving my mini so far. I had an iPad 9th gen before but I didn’t use it as much. It was just a bit too heavy and bulky for me, but I still wanted something for everyday use other than my phone. I decided to give the mini a try and I’m so glad I did. I’m already using it way more than I was the other one. Would highly recommend the mini for those looking for a lightweight and easy to handle experience. Went with a Best Buy open box item and saved a little money too. The mini looked like it was new. Couldn’t tell the difference.
