Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the iPad most people should buy. It's very fast and has a beautiful screen. Easy to hold and use, plays any game with ease and built very well. Battery life is very good for being a smaller device, will last multiple days unless you play a lot of games. Highly recommended.

This is my second iPad mini. For me, the iPad mini is the best size. And a no brainer when the regular iPad has not been updated. It is small enough to easily carry around, especially when traveling, and big enough to watch movies with. Good speed and have had zero problems.

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.

I had a iPad mini 5th generation and decided it was time to upgrade. I am very pleased with this new one. It was very easy to transfer info to the new one. It is faster than my old one and I think the battery life is longer. I use it to watch movies and read books. I also love the size as you can carry it with you and it is not heavy. I love it.

My old one was out of date, and couldn’t take certain updates.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 ipad mini I purchased has been wonderful so far. It is small and easy to handle. It is plenty fast enough for me, very little delay if you have fast internet. Screen is clear and bright. Colors are brilliant. Have not had any issues with it so far. Linked to my iphone with no problem. Apps work well. The battery drains fast when playing online games which is normal for most devices. Overall I am very happy with it.

Perfect size. All the IPad goodness but in a much more portable format. I like having a smaller phone for the go at work and what not, and then this IPad mini for both home and on the go when visiting relatives or on the road. Not too heavy to hold like a book.

Love this so much! The screen is very bright, crisp and clear, great colors. It’s very fast and the battery life is great. I love the purple. It is easily my favorite device now and enabled me to go back down to a smaller iPhone I just grab the mini if I need to see something bigger. I use it as my E reader a lot plus YouTube.

I really loved my iPad mini 6. However, I got bored and traded it in for a larger iPad. I regretted it almost right away. So when the mini 7 came out I knew it was time to go back to the mini. I purchased this and have never looked back. The size is great, very easy to travel with and the battery lasts all day. Its not running with an M series chip, but it certainly keeps up. If you are looking for a smaller tablet, or an iPad in general, this will not disappoint.

Not a lot has changed with the new version of the mini but I do appreciate the doubling of the storage since I was maxed out on my 2021 version. It also seems to be a bit snappier than the previous model. This still continues to be my favorite traveling companion for using as a passenger in a car or when flying. Having a new battery is nice too!

Fast processor, battery lasts all day, light, easy to carry around. Definitely worth it

In my pursuit of a compact yet capable tablet, the Apple iPad mini with the A17 Pro chip has proven to be a commendable choice. Its sleek blue finish and lightweight design make it an elegant companion for both professional and personal endeavors. The A17 Pro chip delivers a notable performance boost, handling multitasking and demanding applications with ease. The 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display offers crisp visuals, enhancing the experience of reading, streaming, and creative tasks. The device’s compatibility with the Apple Pencil Pro further expands its utility for note-taking and artistic pursuits.   Connectivity is robust, with Wi-Fi 6E ensuring fast and stable internet access. The inclusion of USB-C simplifies charging and data transfer, aligning with modern standards.  While the iPad mini excels in portability and performance, it’s worth noting that the 60Hz refresh rate may not satisfy users seeking the smoothest possible display experience. Additionally, the price point positions it as a premium device, which may influence purchasing decisions. Overall, the iPad mini (A17 Pro) stands as a testament to Apple’s commitment to quality and innovation, offering a refined tablet experience in a compact form factor.

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.

The iPad mini is super portable and fast. Perfect size for reading, watching videos, or light work on the go. The screen is bright and clear, and battery lasts all day. Great for travel or everyday use.

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.

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.

Prior to this iPad, I had the mini 4. I can tell a difference in the performance of the tablets. I love the size of the mini. It is light and comfortable to hold. It fits in my purses, too. I use it for almost everything. I was contemplating the regular sized iPad, but right before ordering, I changed my mind. I love my MINI!

Perfect size, starts up fast, easy to setup. Screen is good, speakers sound great, nice base.

The new iPad mini nails the sweet spot: big enough for reading, notes, and streaming, yet small and light enough to toss in any bag. It’s super portable, snappy, and has that smooth, polished Apple experience—great display, responsive performance, and apps that just work together. Bonus: the Purple looks gorgeous in person. If you want an iPad that goes everywhere without feeling like a downsized compromise, this is it.

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.
