The Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro chip), Wi-Fi, 128GB, Space Gray is an outstanding device that delivers flagship-level performance in a compact, easy-to-carry form factor. The A17 Pro chip makes everything feel incredibly fast and smooth—whether browsing, streaming, multitasking, or using productivity and creative apps.
The display is sharp and vibrant, making it great for reading, media consumption, and light creative work, while the 128GB of storage provides plenty of room for apps, photos, and documents. Its lightweight size is ideal for travel, couch use, or one-handed operation, yet it never feels underpowered.
Battery life is solid for all-day use, and the build quality is exactly what you’d expect from Apple, durable, and reliable. Paired with Wi-Fi performance that’s fast and stable, this iPad mini is a perfect balance of power, portability, and practicality.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants top-tier performance in a compact tablet that’s easy to take anywhere.

Purchased my iPad Mini from Best Buy and couldn’t be happier. Best Buy made the entire process smooth—from easy online ordering to fast pickup. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure I got the best deal. The iPad Mini itself is incredibly powerful, lightweight, and perfect for everyday use. Thanks to Best Buy’s excellent service and competitive pricing, I’ll definitely be shopping here again. Highly recommend both the product and Best Buy!

I recently purchased an excellent condition open-box iPad mini from Best Buy, and I'm very pleased with the experience. The device arrived in great condition, with no real signs of prior use. It functions perfectly, and the setup was seamless. The battery life is strong, and the display quality is sharp and vibrant. Overall, it feels like new, and I’m happy with the value I received for the price. A solid 5-star purchase.

The iPad mini is super portable and surprisingly powerful, making it great for on-the-go tasks like reading or sketching. However, the smaller screen might not be ideal for heavy multitasking or detailed work, and the price can be a bit steep compared to other tablets. Overall, it's a fantastic choice if you value the portability.

I wanted a smaller form factor that had similar capabilities as my 2024 iPad Air. This is it. Beautiful display. This is the WiFi version and connects easily and steadily to hotspots. Easy to use with onboard keyboard and Bluetooth. Software update is seamless. Nice to download movies before traveling and watch on flights. I love it!

Exactly what I wanted and needed for work, and school. Absolutely loved the deal that was offered and the product arrived quickly! It works fantastic. Very quick, and easy to use, and the battery life is actually very good! I spent an entire day coloring in a coloring book, and taking notes on it off and on, and I had maybe 76% battery left, which is actually incredible for me lol

It’s so cute! It’s portable and easy to use. I prefer this one for sure. Not heavy. So light. Chic. Elegant. I carry mine everywhere without a problem.

Excellent iPad. The mini size is ideal for me, practical, and convenient, as I can take it to the office and work meetings without having to struggle with where to store it. Technically, it's excellent!

I upgraded from my Mini 6 to Mini A17. Got excellent trade in value. It has been less than a month since I got the A17 and has been great so far. I had used my Mini 6 for about 2 years, did all my college work on it and that was awesome. Mini A17 is the almost same product, but better. :-)

Great little unit. Bright Display and featherweight :)
I'm using it for reading before bed. I purchased a little clear case for it and it is one of may favorite purchases of 2025.

Equipped with the latest A17 chip it’s definitely fast but the mini prices are going up fast so I don’t buy them at regular price only when they are on sale. I mostly buy the mini for my kids so they can watch and play over the weekend if we don’t have anything planned. It’s pretty durable but we put them in kids proof case anyway. The battery is super good then they go down the hill in three years or so, maybe because of all the updates and bloat ware so they force you to buy another one. They don’t make iPad mini the same quality in my experience, the ones we have now a day definitely dies faster but when you recycle with apple you don’t get any credits or anything! iPad mini though seems to last longer for us then the other models for some reason, hence why we buy the mini. Battery last all day when it’s new so you can play and watch all day but before the year is done it’s not gonna last all day, but remember now my kids only get them on the weeks ends.

Great lightweight alternative to my iPhone. It's easy to hold, and the perfect size for reading the Bible, browsing, and watching videos. The screen looks great, performance is smooth, and it fits easily into a bag. If you want something more capable than a phone but more portable than a full-size iPad, this is a great choice. It doesn't have face recognition like my iPhone but uses finger Touch ID. Habit makes me stare at my screen to open it. Pair with an Apple Pencil Pro for more fun!
