    GREAT Tablet!

    GREAT tablet! Hardly worth the money but the hardware & software are at the top of the retail market. My only complaint is with Best Buy. A Best Buy employee shipped me an iPad mini with a different Serial Number than the one listed on my BestBuy.com receipt. I also purchased AppleCare+ through Best Buy, which was applied to the iPad listed on my receipt rather than the iPad that was shipped to me. It took me several phone calls to Best Buy & Apple, over the course of more than a week, to rectify this issue. Automated systems work great until human error causes a cascade failure. A word of advice: Never purchase AppleCare until after you receive your Apple product.

    It is tough to go wrong with the iPad mini. They stay relevant for a long time. This one thus far meets all expectations and looks cool!

    The Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro chip) Wi-Fi 128GB is awesome. It is blazingly fast! The cameras take incredible photos and the screen resolution is amazing. It was very easy to transfer everything from an older iPad mini to this new one. Best Buy had a great sale on iPads during the holiday season which made this an even better deal.

    Quite the mighty mouse, this tablette offers a beautiful screen and more than adequate sound. I use it in lieu of the bigger, heavier, older iPad I bought a few years ago -- primarily for reading. The mini offers the usual seamless Apple app integration.

    It’s an Apple device, no issues as of yet. It’s fun to have an iPad in a smaller size especially when its planned use is for productivity with the Apple Pencil which attaches to it nicely. Better than the device the service was great. The sales representative worked with us as we traded in an old device, and it was her first sale of that type, so yay her!!! But overall Best Buy was the way to go. We checked the Apple Store and Amazon and actually ended up getting a much better deal here.
