    I love my new ipad mini. I have all my books on it and can adjust the text and background for a better reading experience. Shopping is also much easier viewed and compared.

    It is difficult to set up and keep my settings. Each time apple upgrades software, it completely messes up my unit. Apple is constantly fixing something that is not broken

    Good ipad. I feel like the resolution could be higher and the refresh rate being 60 is trash.

    I am enjoying my new Ipad mini. The main drawback that reduces it by one star is going to touch to open. My older mini had the button at the bottom of the pad. That was much better. The location of the touch to open on the new mini makes it harder to use when the pad is in a protective case.

    I purchased this item specifically for travel as it weighs about half of my regular IPAD. I cleaned the screen with an alcohol wipe and it appears that some may have seemed under the glass so I now have a large spot in the upper right corner that will not dry up! This is my last IPAD MINI!!
