    Nice iPad. Very fast and the display is gorgeous. I miss it having a regular home button though.

    I have the original iPad mini from 2014-2015, and I finally decided to upgrade because too many apps wouldn't update anymore. The iPad mini has served me well as an e-reader and easy to transport device when I need something bigger than my phone. It's a nice size for watching videos on the go and can even serve as a working tablet in a pinch, though I prefer a 13-inch screen (MacBook Air) for everyday work.

    The ipad Mini 7 is super cool—small enough to carry everywhere but still crazy fast. The screen is sharp, games and videos look awesome, and it never feels slow.

    This iPad has a great battery life. It’s also really light so it doesn’t weigh too much in a backpack

    The iPad mini (A17 Pro) is my favorite tablet

    I had the M4 11-inch iPad Pro and while I miss the display and 120hz refresh rate, the size of the iPad Mini makes this the device that I find myself using when I'm on the go. The a17 Pro chip and 8gb of ram make the mini an incredibly capable device. The only thing that would replace this for me is an iPad Mini PRO with the specs of the M4 Pro - just bite-sized. As it is, the Mini is the best tablet on the market.

    Perfect to do what needs to be done. Having the capacity to fit just about anywhere, I don’t even touch my phone while at home. I’ve only owned this lil guy for a few weeks and love it. Larger than a phone, I love watching news, reading articles, and watching movies all throughout my home. The image is impeccable and the sound is great. You just gotta love Apple.

    Upgraded from iPad 9th gen to mini 7. Love the smaller and lighter iPad. Much better for reading for longer than a few minutes. Glad I got the mini 7.

    Big yet small

    Transitioning away from (Android) smartphones, I bought this to supplement my new dumb phone. It’s small and light enough to fit in my bag easily and carry everywhere I go. The square edges help with grip. I don’t feel like the device is going to slip out of my hands, unlike some glass smartphones I’ve had in the past, and I’m comfortable going without a case for now. USB-C port is great. Honestly wouldn’t have considered this device if it still used Lightning. In terms of software, there are a few features I miss coming from Android to iPadOS (e.g., temporarily dismissing an alarm before it goes off), but Shortcuts and Automations make up for most of them. Happy with my purchase. Have yet to try any accessories, but I’m seriously considering getting at least an Apple Pencil down the line.
