    Loved the performance but just a tad bit small for the “older” eyes.

    The ipad mini is the perfect size but it could be better spec’d. There’s not much difference between this “updated” version compared to the last model. I’d pay a premium for a pro version.

    We purchased an iPad mini and were told if we signed up for a membership for $50, they would transfer the data from the older iPad. When I came in after the mini arrived, the Geek Squad guy said, no they didn’t do that. He had no idea why the salesman said that. Thankfully, he refunded the $50 and told me how to transfer the info. I was able to do so. Why are your salesmen lying?

    I’ve had it about 1week. Takes some time adjusting to how it works differently from my mini4. Gave it a 4 star because it doesn’t have the button like older model which I prefer.

    It was a great deal over what the Apple Store was charging. However I later found out that the iPad didn’t have the latest version of the software.

    Don't upgrade if you have previous versions

    I traded in my 6th gen and while I don't regret it. It didn't really add much if at all. Apple Intelligence is still useless and probably would still be a year from now so don't get it for that or any other Apple product for AI.

    Really can't comment too much since its a X-Mas goft for my Grand-daughter. But I can tell u that it & the Pro Pencil were the BEST Prices during holiday Black Friday & Cyber Monday deals. Ordering & Pick-up was easy.
