    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Absolutely love the size of this !! I use it mostly for Coloring. It is not too heavy to hold. And the size is perfect with one of those handles that you slide your hand into it. I have arthritis and still get to do my coloring !!!

    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.

    It is a bit pricey but the screen size works just fine, even for those with poorer vision, it is bright and above all the form factor fits easily in a back pack, a shoulder holster, or even a large pocket

    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.

    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.

    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”!

    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.
